The owners were going to put her to sleep because they were moving and would not take with :rolleyes: Would not even let her go into no kill rescue *again rolling eyes* Said they would rather PTS than to put her into a rescue.

The vet called and asked if I could foster until a home was found. A guy is coming to meet her Tuesday. Please keep your fingers crossed he wants her! She hates everyone at the vet and has tried to attack, but not me. I wasnt wearing scrubs :p She is a little grouchy, but wouldnt you be after 2 years of THINKING you had someone to call your own, and then being uprooted and left at a vet office???

Pics coming in next post!

She is HUGE! And still quite scared... But I have HIGH hopes for her. The owners paid $800 for her.(I have her papers)... I just dont understand some people.

PEOPLE TREAT THIER COMPANIONS LIKE THIER POSSESIONS, WHEN THEY ARE TIRED OF THEM THEY GO INTO THE GARBAGE.
YOU JUST CANNOT TREAT LIVING CREATURES OF GOD LIKE THAT , ITS JUST WRONG.
THAT REMINDS ME OF A CAT ODIN WHO IS A LONG HAIRED HIMALAYAN , HE WAS RETURNED TWIVE BECAUSE HE WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE TO GROOM.
FINALLY THE LADY GROOMER TOOK HIM HOME AND HES HAPPY WITH THIER FAMILY AND DOGS.

She may come to my house as a foster but after I got my hands on her, she would be MINE!!!! She is just to priceless to let go of...

I agree Gary, someday they will pay for throwing away one of Gods blessings!

She is actually calming down a bit. She lets me hold her like a baby, and looks me dead in my eyes and meows. I even give her mouth kisses, which she seems to tolerate with no problem.
I wish I could keep her, but I cant. I have too many other "mutts" that need it more :( .
She is so adoptable, IMO. My fosters, well they are NOT ragdolls by any sense of the imagination, BUT just as precious as well. Wish I could adopt them as easily as her. :rolleyes:

Aww she will get adopted in no time. I was constantly looking in shelters for Ragdolls when I was looking with no luck. They deffinatly are a rare find in a shelter. She sure is huge!!

She's gorgeous.:) I've seen some Ragdolls at cat shows before but I don't remember seeing any that were this large. I've read that the males can get between 20-25lbs. I'm not sure about the females. Good luck with finding her the purrfect loving forever home.:)

Where is she at? My family might want her.

Why would someone just throw away a big hairball cat?

She looks exactly like my grandcat Gabe. Unfortunately Gabe must have been the result of poor breeding because he had a nasty streak a mile wide. The only people he didn't attack were my daughter and her husband. Thanks to this wonderful place called Pet Talk my daughter was able to re-home him to Sallyanne (sasvermont) where he got along beautifully with her two kitties at the time, Miley and Graemer. Sadly, Graemer and Gabe passed away but they did have a few good months together. The story is here somewhere at PT if you would be interested in doing a search.

I say all of that to say that this is not the first time, or even the second or third time, that I have heard of ragdolls with bad attitudes. I am imagining that is the real reason her former humans are giving her up. It is so sad when this happens. Money can be made by breeding these beautiful kitties and they are just money making tools for the wrong people. :( I do hope this beautiful girl will find a permanent home where she can live happily ever after.

What a beautiful kitty!!! It must be hard for a kitty to suddenly be cut out of the family she thought would be hers furever then find herself in new and strange surroundings with people she doesn't know. But with your patience, love, and care Pumpkin will learn to trust again.

I'm in awe of Pumpkin's size, do ragdolls typically grow that big?

This is a photo of Gabe, Robyn's cat, referenced in an earlier post... and yes, he was a grump. Sweet, but a grump.

I miss him. :(

She's a big 'un alright! Don't even try to understand the people who wanted to get rid of her. They're not worth the brain power. I'm just glad you got her away from them. Fingers and paws crossed that she'll go to a permanent home.

Pawla
05-29-2007, 05:55 PM
That is one BIG cat! I don't understand people either. How can you just PTS something because you don't want it any more. I feel that when you get an animal, you make commitment to that animal for life! Same as if you have a child!

What a beautiful BIG girl she is!! Shame on those idiot owners who abandoned her. When are people going to learn that pets are a LIFETIME COMMITMENT!!!!!! Ugh!! Those idiots don't deserve her.

She is settling in just fine. My mother has bought her her own princess bed, and scratching post. And brushes... And collars...

She loves going swimming in the bathtub, and she has a MAJOR crush on Squeekers.. BUT he is playing hard to get :rolleyes:

I have a feeling though when he first saw her, that "chica chica bow wow" was playing in his head :p She is one sexy kitty ;)

Updates guaranteed!

Awww- she sounds so happy and a tad spoiled! And she deserves it!

C'mon, Squeekers - give in, you know you can't resist! :D
