There is No Plan B. Well, Yes, there is. Just Kidding.



There is a plan in place now for Echo. The visit to the prospective foster-home yielded good results. The person conducting the interview with the foster-guardian was impressed with the young woman in question, and with Vinny, the cat currently living there. He is three years old - so quite a bit senior to Echo - but mischievous and energetic. My little foundling will be going to what is hoped will be her new foster-home late Tuesday afternoon.

The PAW Society will be monitoring Echo’s situation closely. I think that with a whole house in which to run about, and only one feline to grow to know, Echo will do well. But she will have a place here at the Cosy Apartment if things don’t work out. In such a case, she will be integrated with my beasts upon her return, though she will be kept separated at night and during my absence, until I am sure of reactions. She will certainly not be abandoned; it would be a poor sort of rescue in that case.

But I am confident in Plan A. Kittens have been successfully introduced to homes under less attractive terms. I have no doubt that Echo will win human hearts wherever she goes. If Vinny wants the companionship of his own species as we believe, there will be a happy beginning to Echo’s search for a permanent home – her next quest. Perhaps it will have a library, in which she can re-arrange the books, as she likes to do in mine…

  2. We're keeping our fingers and paws crossed that all works out well for her. Give her a cuddle and smooch from me before you send her off on her next adventure. ♥

  3. Always nice to know there is a Plan B! Echo is such a darling, as well as a book critic, I see...

  4. It's good to hear there is a plan in place for Echo. Kittens adapt easily to new situations, so I'm sure Echo will settle into her new home with no problem. I've found that it's usually the existing cat that has a difficult time adjusting to the new arrival. But Vinny is still young, so bringing a new kitten into "his house" may not be an issue. Please keep us posted on how things are going.

  6. Naughty little munchkin, messing with those books! I'm sure little Echo will have a great time with her new playmate and a new house to explore. Glad you will be keeping tabs on her. Thank you for taking her in and giving her a new life! I've been feeding a stray for almost two years and he still will not let me get close. In the winter I worry every day for him. I'm just glad Echo is off the streets and safe! If only every cat and dog could have that chance. Thank you again for all you do.

  9. Sounds like a lovely foster homegirls little Echo. I am sure she will settle in well and enjoy many games of chase with her foster brother. But you will miss her! We hope to have updates.
