Hello Everyone, let me start by saying how sorry I am for your losses and congrats to all the new beginnigns. I'm posting this here, hoping I may get some responses. Brief update: As some of you know, I have been put in a position where I cannot have another cat. Mostly because it would have to live with my partner and he has been saying "no way". He does not want to go thru what happened with Arthur again. So, I have been filling my void working at the shelter. I have not pushed the issue on him. Part of it is me, indoor/outdoor thing which I have talked about in the past. He has built quite a hard shell around him. Well that shell now has a small crack in it. Let me explain

There are 2 young cats that just came into the shelter. They both have Cerebellar Hypolplasia.(wobbly cat syndrome) Dave is very curious about them. My thought is, he's missing that kitty bond he had with Arthur and having a cat or 2 with this problem would be a sure way of them being indoor cats.

As for me, I could care less what they have. I love them all!..I did say to myself when I saw them how perfect they would be for us. I would have no choice but to keep them in. Then I had an idea of letting them roam the yard. Supervised of course and not all the time. I stupidly mentioned this, it did not go over well.
I did some research online about this. Has anyone ever dealt with this? They were in a foster home and did quite well. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated..Thanks.. Ann
