RE: My cat from shelter . 1 week together.

in #story8 years ago (edited)

Beautiful. We have a cat that looks just like him. His name is Samson. We name him that because, He showed no fear of dogs. We rescued him as kitten from an apartment complex who's tenants moved and abandoned him. I was there to fix a washer. When I got back to my truck, I decided that if he climbed in on his own, I would take him home. He did, so I did. We had two large dogs. When I brought him into the house, he went right up to them, swatted the larger one in the nose and started playing with them. The dogs didn't know what to make of that. He readily acclimated himself to the family. He is now about 12 years old. the dogs have passed and we have new ones, but Samson is still the boss :-).

Sort:  

It seems to be strange...but I call my cat Samson despite that my bf gave him name Tomas.
What a nice story! A kitten took the destiny in its ...em paws and changed it in the best way! I only can imagine the reaction of your dogs))))) I guess it was funny to observe them in this moment)

That time was quite enjoyable :-). We've always had cats and dogs (mostly rescues) When we brought Samson in, we had three others. They all got along and if ever the dogs would chase one, the others would gang up on him. We moved from Buffalo NY to here in NM. We brought all our family with us (four cats and two dogs). They were up in age, and Samson if last buffalonian still with us. We have Three new cats and two new dogs. The dogs like to chase the cats, but Samson is the one who puts them in their place.
