and things went downhill from there

Guess who finally got adopted? Six months is a long time to act as a foster home for a wayward cat - one might get attached to a cat in that time. Before we took her to the shelter I spent about half an hour with her so that I could say a proper goodbye. Leia did her usual routine of purring and nuzzling and burying her face in my beard. All in all she is a very personable cat, and I think her adopter is going to be pleased with her new pet.
