Katie went back to her owner today.

I had her for about two months and was accepting that I might be her permanent human. Marcy is looking lost.

Poor Marcy. Give her extra love.

It sounds like you are a little disappointed as well.

She mouthed it and dropped it on the floor. By this morning it was gone. And she's doing better.
I thought I was going to end up with Katie after two months, she had made herself at home and had decided I was her person.

I don't know why you had Katie, or why you had to return her, but it is sad that you got attached, Marcy got attached, and so did Katie.

Katie will get over it. It just isn't ever easy. But that certainly is something that she didn't eat her treat. If my cat ever decides not to eat his treats, I will be panic-stricken. What a chow hound he is!
