What a ” nice” little story our 4 cats have. Unfortunately, only 4 as the 5th cat had disappeared before coming into our care.
It happened that someone said to someone that they could bring cats to our dog shelter from anywhere!!!!! What did they think???? The „kind owner” didn’t hesitate one second. He packed up his 5 cats and drove them to us from about 40-50 km. He had just started to load them into our emergency cages outside the shelter during opening hours when one of our employees noticed him and challenged him. Unfortunately, by this time 2 of the 5 cats had escaped and disappeared. In a few days’ time one fugitive (SZASZA) wandered into the trap we had set up, but the 5th cat has never been found.
This is how we have now Szami, Szuszmi, SZASZA and Xéna. They were all suffering from an undescribibly serious earmite infestation. Their treatment lasted a very long time. They have all been neutered by now and they all have negative FIV-FELV tests. Szami and Xéna had been pregnant.
SZASZA’s eyes needed treatment for a long time as his eye problem kept returning. He didn’t reallly enjoy the eye drops. He was swatting and scratching and it was difficult to handle him.
Unfortunately, the result of this is that he acccpets stroking (without scratching) when there is no sign of any kind of eye drops, but as soon as he senses that we might want to do something with his eyes or ears he’s overcome by fear and starts scratching us.
UPDATE 23.04.2022: SZASZA has become a fawning cat who is really needy of love and stroking. The only thing he doesn’t like is when we try to touch his ears. The continuous ear treatments he needed in the past have left a bad memory for him, so when we touch his ears he will run away or sometimes he will try to scratch.
He’s castrated, housebroken, his FIV-FELV tests both came back with a negative result. He’s a very calm cat except when there is some kind of medical treatment.
He can be adopted in Békéscsaba as an indoor cat.
He's been adopted. 18.11.2022 (J)
