One of my friends provided my name as a reference to a no-kill shelter where she wants to adopt a couple of cats. One of them is a special needs cat. He had lost one of his back legs and drags the other behind him, so the shelter is in the process of getting him a wheel chair.
My dilema is, she is my friend, but knowing the past history of her and animals, I really don't think it's wise for her to have any more animals. She already has a cat or two and just recently picked up a 6 week pit bull *sigh*
She is one of those people who has a big heart and it's in the right place, but she simply can't care for the animals like they should be cared for. Basically, to make a really long story short...she's had at least 20 animals confiscated from her in the past.
I was hoping she wouldn't get any more animals, but now she has this new puppy and some cats already. I think she needs to stop. Plus, a special needs cat would need attention and care, and it could get expensive.
Now, I love my friend, but I simply can't justify this no-kill shelter letting these cats go to her home. They would be better off in the shelter!
If I tell them so, she will know it is me! What should I do?
