Two months of earning trust... There's this little cat at my local gas station... right next to a busy highway. For two months, I've been driving over every night to feed her. No one could get close. She's that timid. Eventually, she started to warm up to me... ...and finally she let me touch her. I don't think she's ever been petted before. But she didn't know what to make of it. She retracted, but then she would sit there rubbing up against the tire and kneading the concrete. She has the most beautiful natural bobtail and I'm sure she has worms. I knew I had to get her out of there before something happened. Last week I tried three times to catch her with a crate in my trunk, but I failed every time. Last night? She just let me pick her up. She's currently feeling out her new home in the rabbit pen outside. Such a shy baby. I can't introduce her to Moxie yet—not until she's been to the vet and dewormed. It wouldn't be fair to either of them to just bring home a stranger without knowing if they'll get along. This is Moxie's home. But at minimum: vet visit, deworming, checkup, possibly desexing. If she and Moxie don't get along, then I'll do my best to find her the right home. She wouldn't have lasted much longer out there. I'm just grateful she finally trusted me. #IKITAO
