indoors Arrival Story: Tripoli was a stray. A work colleague brought her into the office to find her a good home. I didn't intend to keep a cat at the time, but I said I'd have a look. She was yowling and terrified. People had been trying to calm her down, but nobody could do it. I opened the carrier, and reached my hand in. She was quiet immediately. Shit. Looks like she's mine.
She was so thin and tiny when I brought her home. Her fur was scruffy, and she was almost bald at the base of her tail because she was covered in fleas and had scratched her skin raw.
I thought she was maybe 8 or 9 weeks old. A vet examined her teeth, though, and put her at at least a year. I made it my mission to bulk that cat up. It worked (though she's not as chubby as I would like!). Lives Remaining: 3 of 9 Forums Motto: Ham? Haaaaaam? I've Been On Catster Since:
