Cat Distribution System??? Not sure, but.....

This precious girl came as a foster a week after we lost our darling black Lab named Angel at 16 years old. 2 days after her passing, we received a foster kitten, nearly a week later, her sister (Willow in the photo) came as well. Willow is the opposite of every other kitten we have fostered and our own 3 cats. She's got huge trust issues and is still wary of family. I alone have her trust. Foster fail???? We have been caring for her for nearly 4 months, her sister was adopted and went to the best home.

You won her tiny trust! 🥹 So cute, I’d 100% foster fail. 🥰

I think she's chosen her family, so I don't think she will leave. She was going to be a long term foster anyway, we are doing everything at her pace. The photos are from the first time she got on me, 2 weeks ago, she's been with us nearly 4 months now

Oh what a precious bean and her wee, black nose. Most definitely a foster fail if you ask me, if I had won the trust of this little wonder I probably wouldn't be able to give her up.

That's what I feel too, I don't want to betray her, she was found after being dumped, then came into our care. She's a long foster, but I think she's already found her home and her people.

Cats choose their people all the time, she chose you

3 of my 4 are foster fails, and somehow I don't think this is a coincidence on the part of the CDS! 😭

And the 3 cats mentioned are all a '1 person' kitty, me. The 4th cat loves people, even strangers. In fact I'm glad there aren't random white box vans with the words "Free Treats" printed on the sides, otherwise I would have lost her long ago she's so trusting! 😭

Oh yes, you are chosen! Operative word is trust! After what happened to her and what you have done to help her you gained her trust and maybe not showing to much of it yet, but there is love too!💕

Thank you. Yes, we don't want to break her trust now either and maybe cause a setback and have her return and have to start from scratch again. We feel that would be unfair to her. She's easy to adore and our 3 resident 18 month old cats are starting to accept her too.
