Dear friends,
Blessings be with all of you.
Quick update: I think that Tucker and Clayton are settling in. They wrestle and run and chase each other. I am hoping this is a good thing. Both will sleep on the bed with us. I am the dividing line. CLayton is still not happy happy but I think he is learning to adjust.

OK here's the problem...... I Need someone's help desperately.

As you know I am volunteer with our local SPCA. It is a wonderful loving facility.
In March this lady brought back her cat that she had adopted 7 years ago from this same SPCA. Basically said YOU take her I am done dealing withher. Thisis a stunningly gorgeous long haired black and white little girl named OREO. She is gorgeous.
She was brought back with open sores all over her body that the owner said were self induced from stress. Well WHO brought on this stress in the first place? We could NOT get near her. COuldn't touch her. it took months to gain her trust and now she will allow us to pet her but NOT pick her up.
SOMETHING Happened to this beautiful creature when she was with this owner... God only knows what untold things happened to her.
ANyway... a couple cam ein and wanted to adopt her.. The man picked her up and she nailed him big time. Clamped down on his hand and bit him. She has now been deemed unadoptable and may have to be euthanized.
I need your help. Is there anyone of you that might consider taking her and loving her on her terms? Her little card says that she would have to be an only cat but maybe in time she would adjust. She is the kind of girl that needs to do her own thing.. left alone and if she wants you to pet her she'll come to you. There is love in thos eeyes I know it.. PLEASE help me....her time is limited. PLEASE help me find a loving home that will love Oreo on her terms.

Love you all,
deb Mommacat

Dearest friends,
Just a note to let you know that blessed little one willbe crossing over.
I have been talking to the staff and this is what is best for her. This decision has been so very hard for the staff.. they are also a wreck and I would never volunteer for an organization that takes this lightly. THis happens so very rarely... it is so very hard for all of them. They are the most loving people I Have ever known.
I am doing Reiki for this blessed little one and give her peace to make her journey with love and hope that she will let me know she is safe and finally free.

I love you all,
Momma cat... Deb

Bless YOU Debbie for helping out this poor little girl.

This jerk brings her back after 7 years??? She obviously didn't even attempt to get her medical attention.

Sometimes decisions have to be made in the best interest of the cats. Reiki is such a wonderful, soothing therapy. At least she'll know she was loved, even for a brief moment before she goes to a MUCH better place than at that despicable person's home.

RIP my sweet girl.

Dear Moosmom,
I know this is a hard decision for the staff....they are the kindest most gentle people.
Yes maam.. this blessed little girl was owned by a witch for 7 years and she got another cat and must have decided that Oreo just didn't fit in anymore and brought her back.

I am not sure when this willtake place.. it may be tomorrow....I don't know... but it willbe soon.

PLEASE send her your love..... I Am still a mess.. can't seem to stop crying.

Love,
deb mommacat

I have a terrible habit of adopting the "Unadoptable". If it was possible I would take her. I love a challenge! I've even tamed a alley cat affectionately named "Rambo". (Turns out he was a she!)
Let this be of some comfort to you. The cat is no longer living is such dreadful condition. She is now experiencing a new and happier life with the love you all have provided. Know that she is going in peace and contentment that she would have never found where she was at. Just be with her when she goes and pet her gently into that goodnight. God will just make her an Angel in flight!
As long as there is a ASPC there will be love!!!

You sure yo don't want to give her a try?
I was a basket case on Wed. I called my dear friend who comes to our SPCA . Sh eis an animal communicator and has spoken with Oreo several times. oreo is so hurt and filled with hatred of humnas. I told her over and over and over again yesterday taht I loved her....her eyes are hard. But I love her.. I love her.. and I know there has to be somone who can take her.

Having done Hospice for many many years this goes against my own philosphy. She is not terminally ill and not in any physical pain.... so I am having a REALLY Hard time with this.

I don't know when she will cross...I told her yestreday not to give up on us and that I loved her.


THis is tearing me to shreds.

Oh dear, dear dear, that poor kitty! That woman should not be allowed to adopt another cat. Our prayers are with you, whatever happens.

Blessings be yours!
You can rest assured that she willNEVER adopt another animal from our shelter. BUT she got another cat and then started to neglect Oreo... emotionally that is.
Oreo was ditched to the curb and had out stayed her place and welcome. The new kitty took over and Oreo was shoved to the background. Can you imagine why this poor and blessed creature hates humans so much.
If anyone would like to take a chance with he rplease let me know.. I don't know when she is crossing over. It is tearing the staff to pieces.. they all love her but she doesn't love them. She cannot be in ahome with children or any other pets. But I Know that given the right circumstance and a human that has enough love and patience she would be ok in time.
THis has been so hard on the entire staff. They are so loving.

PLEASE pray for her.. that she gets a stay of execution.... PLEASE.

BTW . Clayton and Tucker are getting along much better. They wrestle and chase each other now and Shadow has even come out from under the bed!
I love you all.. thanks for listening.:)

Dearest friends,
I am asking for your love and strength.
I just called the SPCA to give the asst. director an update on some fundraising I have been helping with.
I held my breath and asked about Oreo as I have not been in for a few days.
Oreo will cross over tomorrow WED at 3:30.

Dearest friends... PLEASE help me to be strong and send her off with love. I am a wreck. I KNOW that this is so very hard for the staff and all options and alternatives have been explored and they feel that there is nothing left to explore. Having done Hospice for so many years, this goes against my very nature and makes this even harder for me to accept. I know this is heart wrenching for the staff. PLEASE help me be strong.
I Am going down to help tomorrow and will say my good-bye to Oreo then.
PLEASE wish her well as she starts her new journey.. PLEASE help me be strong.

Love,
Mommacat.. Deb
