Just today I was looking at websites here in Czech Republic for cat adoptions. Most of the places are ones that take in stray cats or kitties whose human parent was no longer able to care for them (or passed on). The Czech people at those places weren't that great at marketing them, though. I was shocked by how they referred to some as "brats" and other negative names. It is the case that many are being nursed for horrible maladies from being strays, and even PTSD. I imagine the cats at PetSmart are hopefully healthy. It is a hard decision for me in terms of wanting to help an animal in distress, or maybe being incapable of handling such a responsibility.

Aww poor kitties

My cat Maybelle was very skiddish when I first got her. It wasn’t from PTSD but from uprooting her life of living with my sister her whole 13 years to living with me. Senior cats have a hard time adjusting to change. She’s been with me a year now and she adjusted really well. Some cats take some patience but they usually come around once they know they’re safe
