    I am so sorry. And it's ultimately the kitty and you who lose out from such a negative interaction.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!


    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

    I would write an email to whoever runs the shelter, telling them what you told us. No matter what, this woman is costing them adoptions and donations, and needs an attitude adjustment. Not everyone is cut out for customer service work.

    This sounds like a great idea. Too bad you had such a horrible experience and too bad for all of the cats that people may want to adopt but this OB scares them away.

    AMEN Cassiesmom!!

    Deb,

    I'm so sorry your had to experience this. Like Karen said, I'd send an email to the Director of this shelter. It's sad that both you AND the kitty lost out on a possibly wonderful connection due to this d-bag's attitude. Could be the reason why they had so many kitties.

    Hang in there. When it's right, you'll definitely know it!!! Hope you, Terry and your furbaby are doing well!!

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02

    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    It is bad enough when you get a rude sales person in a store but this very rude woman is costing these Cats a chance at a FurrEver home, and that is totally inexcusable
    I would send in emails of complaint , that's so sad that a Cat that might have fit your needs lost a chance at being your New Friend.

    This is exactly what I was going to say. Unless the OB was the one who ran the shelter, there is no excuse for treating you as poorly as she did. Sure, everyone has a bad day, but to make that many rude comments to you is a bit much... even for someone having a bad day
