The one that got away

[catnapper]

Every rescuer has a cat in their hands that they let go and regret it. Mine was Angel.

And today I found an email from the adoptive parents.... they want to send her back AND Flutter's sister. :eek: :(

I am beyond devastated. I WANT Angel. I just can NOT take in one more cat. If only I had gotten this info 6 months ago, I'd have taken them both in. but today? After I just added three this year, with a growling Abby sitting next to me because Mikey's looking at her? (oh yes, Mikey and Abby are like two little kids -- Ma! He's looking at me!":rolleyes: ) With a sick Pouncer?

Can I cry?

For those of you who might not remember, Here's angel (my :love: )

I can' find Flutter's blackie sister in my photos - I know I have them. She's a 3 legger too and looks EXACTLY like Mystic.

Sigh..... anybody willing to take them in? Otherwise, they're going to the shelter. And I can't imagine MY girls going there! :(

:( Aweee how so sad.. How come the people dont want her anymore?? She is Adorable.. Oh please dont let this baby get away & have to go to the shelter.. I know you will do your best..

Thats sad that these people got tired of Angel and Flutters sister.:(
They think more of their gadgets than having a friend who will always be there for you.
We are praying that they can find that Furrever Home.
:love::love::love:
Thats so wrong that people can be that cruel::mad:

I'm so sorry to hear this.:( Are they having problems with them or do they just have financial problems? Hopefully some one that you know will be able to foster them so they don't have to go to a shelter. I'll keep them in my thoughts and prayers.

[Freedom]

Oh no! Is there any way you can be involved in placing those 2, keeping them together? Prayers for a great solution to appear quickly.

You know if you don't take them back you will regret it the rest of your life don't you? You will always beat yourself up over it.. What a horrible dilemma to be in. Why is the adopter wanting to give them up? Is it something that can be worked out so she can keep them? This is so sad for them...:(

What are the issues??? Why are they returning both of them??

[Anikaca77]

I'll help with transport if I can. Sorry I can't take them. Just too many right now.

Apparently, The one 3-legger is stalkling their 10 year old cat, and Angel is following in on the fun. The 10 year old has developed litterbox issues because of it.

I spent an hour on the phone with them last night. My heart is breaking..... I was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo tempted to just say "drop them both off" but logic says I can't take in two more. Its not the money (though that's always a consideration) its the fact that 6 months ago, I had 5 cats. I now have 8. Two more would DOUBLE where I was just a few months ago. I have the room, for sure, but do I have the time, the patience, and 8 cats willing to accept two more?

I am sorry that everyone is in this position.

From my experience, the more you have, the easier it is to add. If you have the room, consider fostering them.

Question... could they be split up??? Just wondering. Not that I could really take in more, but one docile compared to one that stalks....

[momcat]

This is a very sad situation for you and your two beautiful kitties. Unfortunately we can't help out, our landlord's wife doesn't like Groucho being here so two more is out of the question. Many prayers are being prayed for these two sweeties to find their purrfect, loving, furever home :love: :love:

Yup, they can be split up. Actually, the stalking isn't stalking so much as watching while the older girl is in the box. Apparently, she needs a lot of privacy and doesn't appreciate being looked at while doing her buseinss.

[orangemm]

Can't say I blame her! :D

Poor girls..............:(:(

[Catty1]

Well, gee....maybe the girl kitty could have a covered box and then the other two could still have a home???:confused:
