so many kitties that come from hoarder situations bring baggage that's almost impossible to overcome... hard to know if it's genetic, or just from neglect, or a problem with the individual cat that nothing would have been able to predict or prevent. which doesn't make it any easier to lose them.
i have a friend with 16 persians--15 of them special-needs.... i tend to think of them as very easy to take care of tho, other than all the fur..... sort of like stuffed critters that purr. especially the older ones: plop them down near water and food bowls, near litter boxes, and dust them occasionally..... my friends refer to them as speed bumps.
