I adopted a special needs cat

[mburbank]

Last night it bit my older daughter when she was trying to help it spaz down off the couch withouth bashing it's head in. This morning it peed and crapped in several places that were not the litter box. I think it is trying to tell us things aren't working out.

I feel terrible, but he's got to go back. The girls cried like crazy last night. My friend at the shelter says they'll foster him there until they can find someone for him and won't ice the poor bastard.

I think he needs a small confined space and maybe one person, which are things we can't give him.

And while I don't think a cat could kill you, I am here to tell you from personal experience (not this cat) that if a cat really wants to hurt you, it is nothing at all like the accidental and/or playful stuff they put you through, even when they are feeling grumpy.

Sorry, Max. One of my friends had to give a cat back to a shelter after it didn't work out, and that was really sad. But we went back yesterday and she brought home a different one (hopefully without the same problems), and while we were there I met one that I want to adopt too, so I think I'm going to become a first-time pet owner soon.
