| Some cats just get lost. But many people discover that having a cat takes some effort and they don't want to make it. I know perfectly sweet, well-mannered cats that were abandoned. Sometimes because they were ill and didn't want to pay the vet. Other times because they had some behavior problem. Many times just because they didn't want to take care of the cat. Of course, there also people who likes rising up babies, but don't want to live with grown up cats. But a sweet, affectionate, well-mannered beautiful cat that has been abandoned, has a higher probability of being ill than other cats. You should check her, for she might need some treatment. And for the first moths be more alert of possible symptoms. But most abandoned cats are as healthy as any other. I'm talking only of a probability. An it can take 2-3 months before you notice it. And congratulations

| Another reason for homeless or abandoned cats is their strong sense of "homing." Many times, when a family relocates, they take their cat with them, but when they arrive in the new location, the cat gets outside and tries to find its way back to the old house. They cat may reach the old location, but no one is there, or it may be too far for the cat to find its way back. In either case, the cat ends up homeless. This is especially true for cats who spend a lot of time outside.
