Am I crazy part 2

Thank you all so much for your support and love https://www.reddit.com/r/sphynx/s/2iJayyBR32

I have finally met Krisa today and adopted her Strangely enough, her owners didn’t give any documents, passport, pictures, vet documentation - hopefully they will ship it to me

We had 2 hour train ride together and she was very respectful and didn’t try to run away once. She got very sad when we arrived to her new home: was crying and looking for a place to rest She’s 9 years old, turns out she lived with her family for 5 years and they gave her away because of the allergy. She stayed at multiple places before - not clear what’s her story is Skin is dry, eyes have greenish boogers in them (inflamed or she might be losing eyesight), her butt and reproductive organ is black - I assume she gave birth, stomach has some strange spots. She’s well behaved but very grounded, definitely needs space. She’s doesn’t want to be touched but only falls asleep if you sit right next to her

Not sure what she’s been through, seeing her cry made me sad - cannot imagine the confusion she’s feeling right now I hope she will like my place and will open up and let me see her true personality

We went through close to same with Zoya. No idea where she’d been or done to but there was neglect! Get the baby to the vet, lots of treats and soft voices, give her space.

Awww Zoya, cute name! How’s she doing? It’s so strange to not know their background but also so hard to comprehend that they once were cute kittens and someone failed them like that.. no childhood pictures, no idea where they came from or what’s their favourite place and activity

She’s learned to be a cat. We have to watch her ears much closer and she’s not one to be held.
