You know how I mentioned getting a cat. Well we have never had a real pet that did something (we had fish... yup they do nothing), so we thought we could take care of our cat. But even though it has only been 5 days we already feel the strain and the changes that having a cat has imposed on our home. I think we may return him back to the shelter (even though they are closing). The lady was very nice and she offered this option and that we should tell her ASAP so that she can find him a home.
I feel so bad about this, but I feel like it should be settled before he becomes attached to our home. He's adorable, but we just aren't a pet kind of family. Plus soon I'm off to college and I don't think my younger siblings (who are allergic to cats) can handle taking care of him. Plus he deserves better. After hearing his story it's heart wrenching to do this to him, but sometimes the best choice isn't the nicest one I guess. Before he gets too attached to us we should find him a proper loving home.
The more and more I think about it I can't imagine a fantastic future for him. We are all so busy and we are always used to doing our own things. Plus we don't let him sleep in our bedrooms (though I let him come into mine) because we all close our doors.
Actually a lot our doors are closed because of him which is irritating my grandparents due to air circulation and my mom is convinced he caused the strange smell in our house. Still don't know the answer to that one. Could be from the plant that he knocked down. I think it's best for him to find a new family. I feel so sad, but also a bit relieved. I guess I'm not cut out to be a pet person at least I know that in the future now.
Sigh.
Watch this video it's awesome!!!! They should put this on YouTube. Now I am scrambling to finish my summer assignment so I can start my College Apps essays and supplements. Aarg.
