The legend says that Mohammed adored cats. When one of them was sleeping on his sleeve and he had to go out, Mohammed supposedly cut off the sleeve so as not to disturb his pet.

I definitely agree with you that something here just is not right. With a vet check, neuter, flea bath and positive attention, this beautiful little guy could have come to be someone's devoted and loving companion. Please don't blame yourself or worry about an innocent comment, you did the very best you could to give this kitty a second chance at a much better life. And for that, bless you!
My issue here is with the shelter. What kind of animal haven represents itself as a no kill then turns around and pulls a stunt like this? From your post, it sounds like the staff was totally indifferent and straight out did not care about what happened to kitty or your concern about his well being. If I understand this correctly, the staff needs to find something else to do because care and compassion for animals in need doesn't seem to exist there. They seem cold and indifferent.
Please contact the executor of the estate and let them know what's going on there. You might also consider contacting the Humane Society, SPCA or other animal welfare agency. Perhaps it's time for this place to be investigated. Most likely this is not an isolated incident!
FIND A PURPOSE IN LIFE.....BE A BAD EXAMPLE
Well, I am certainly not a special cat expert by any means, but I did bring
two feral cat brothers into my house to raise at 10-11weeks old. These were
my first cats ever. It's been over 6 yrs now and they are doing great. So
it is possible.
I do agree that most shelters are way to busy to give them individual care
and attention needed to get them ready for adoption. There are just too
many regular cats needing homes to make taming ferals feasable.
