Tuna joined are little family on December 23rd . Really I brought her home because the person that found her couldn’t catch her nor could she keep her. Normally I would just keep scrolling on post like this but there was something about her face that got me and she was right down the street.
Tuna came home with me after about an hour and half of coaxing and you guessed it a can of Tuna. I put her in my spare room and closed the door. Went to Menards and picked up basic kitten supplies. Posted her on social media boards and figured she would be gone by Christmas Day.
Days came and went and no one came forward to claim her as theirs. I had offers from people to take her but that just didn’t feel right.
I started introducing her to my dog’s. The first meeting lasted about 2 seconds. It involved hissing and barking. It took about a week for the first non hissing and barking encounter to happen.
Tuna has fallen into the morning routine of breakfast before work. Morning petting before I login and of course treats during coffee time. Lily and Lucy get there milk bones and Tuna gets some kitty treats and I get to enjoy my coffee for 2 minutes without them all asking for more.
Tuna has shown us her bravery over the past three weeks. She is settling into house with what I call two bigs. She socializes as she can and she trusted me.
Trust is hard. New experiences are hard. But sometimes you just have to be brave and trust that person that is offering you the helping hand isn’t going to hurt you but rather there to help you.
Until next time,
Juli
