Stray Cat

In June we had a stray cat wander into our yard.  She was super skinny and appeared injured. 


We put food and water out for her, and she soon adopted our patio as her new home.  

We couldn't keep her, so I called around to various shelters to see if I could find a home for her.  Every place was full.  We took her to our vet, and our vet said she was a very old cat and had to be pretty tough to survive as long as she had.  I kept trying the various shelters and finally found one that agreed to take her when they had room (which ended up taking quite a few weeks).  In the meantime, we fed her and fattened her up, and the kids named her Daphne.  When the shelter was finally able to take her (and place her in foster care) we were all sad to see her go.
