Hi All,
I promised a friend I would post on the site, in the hope that someone could help.
Here is the story.
Lovely affectionate Black and White cat, by the name of Deli, desperately needs a loving new home.
Deli had been taken in by a family in Marmaris, but they have moved back to the UK, leaving the cat to fend for itself. My friends, live next door, and they have been feeding the cat, and have tried to look after it, but they already have two other cats, who will not accept poor Deli, and have been making life difficult for her.
Also they have two dogs, the cats that have always lived there, avoid the garden and the area that the dogs live. But Deli is a bit of a charachter, and has taken a few chances with the dogs. Sadly earlier in the week, Deli came off more than a little worse for ware, after an encounter with one of the dogs. She was very poorly, and spent time at the vets and is now slowly recovering.
It is clear that Deli, will never be accepted by the other two cats, and she still seems to have no fear of the dogs, and this is not a good thing, as next time she may not be so lucky.
Even though Deli was not their responsibility, and was owned by a family, that were quite irresponsible, by taking in the cat and then abandoning her. My friends are desperately trying to do the right thing and rehome her.
Deli deserves a chance.
If anyone out there knows someone living in Turkey, that could give this cat a permanent and loving home, please let me know and I will put you in touch with the people that are trying to rehome her.
I've told you all this so that you can see that even sworn enemies can eventually settle down together, once they've sorted out their differences so maybe there's no need for the cat to have to be found another home. I hope everything turns out OK in the end.
I know my freinds have been trying to look after this abandoned cat, since December, its not so much the other two cats, its the fact my friends have two dogs, which they rescued.
The two cats they have, always stay away from the dogs, but the abandoned cat, Deli, will walk around the dogs, and sadly one of them attacked her last week, luckily there was someone in the house to stop it getting any worse.
If they thought the cat would be afraid of the dogs, and would stay away they would try and perservere, but I think something terrible will happen if the dog gets his teeth on her again.
What I find really sad, is the fact that a family had taken the cat in, then for what ever reasons, they then left Turkey, (paying to take their dog home, to the UK!) but made no attempt to rehome the cat.
So if there is someone out there that can help, please p.m.
Jo I hope you resolve this problem, and I also hope this raises awareness to expats coming out here- if you have a pet please think carefully about bringing it out here as if things dont work out for you and you want to return its going to mean six months quarantine for the animal. Further if you take on an animal out here please dont just abandon it because your situation changes, find someone to care for it.
