    I'm done with this chick Paula

    I feel like I've been taken for granted. I told her that since she'll be moving on the 25th, she can take her cat back (she lost her live in respite care assignment). She went off on me and said that I promised to keep Buddy. I told her that I would place both Ari and Buddy on the shelter websites and whoever got adopted, I would keep the other. She went off on me and said that I was the one that talked her into letting Buddy go to a good home. I tried to explain to her that right now, because of kitten season, the shelters are jammed. I also told her that since she'd be home in her new place she'd be able to take Buddy back. She was furious. She said. "Thanks for nothing!!!" I asked her if she wanted the household items my friend (the one that's not talking to me) and she said keep it, she wanted nothing from me. It was a major argument and I stayed as calm as I could. I am thoroughly disgusted after all I did for her. I asked her where she got her cat fixed and vaccinated and she had no clue. Which makes it difficult to place him. I'm not even sure he was tested for Leukemia and Aids. I know that MY vet records for all my cats are impeccable.

    I asked her what person would get up at the butt crack of dawn and drive 30 minutes to rescue a woman I know nothing about, take her to her shelter and then go back again to rescue her cat and all her belongings????

    Since she doesn't want any of the household goods my friend was kind enough to donate to her, I'm going to sell them at a flea market and using the money to pay the euthanization of Baby Liam. That bill is $100. My vet is so wonderful and will let me make payments. I've been going to him for over 8 years and wouldn't trust my cats to anyone else,

    I've deleted her phone number from my phone and have no plans on taking any of her calls.

    I've used up alot of my minutes calling shelter after shelter with no luck. I'm expecting a call from the Director of the Westport Humane Society on Monday who says she can probably take Buddy. They have a very different class of people living in Westport so anyone who adopts him will give him the love and care he truly needs. I am not looking forward to driving all the way to Westport cuz I'm short on gas.

    This upset me alot because I went out of my way to help her and all I get is whining about how miserable her life is.

    So is this a kill shelter?

    No why, would YOU like to adopt him?? If not, then don't even go there.

    I'm sorry this women was so ungrateful. Unfourtunately, many people are the same way. You should feel good about what YOU did for her and just ignore her calls, etc. She doesn't deserve a friend like you that would help her. What a piece of work.

    Some people just have to have someone else to blame for everything and she sounds like she is one of those.... That is probably the reason you were the only one there to help her.. There are a lot of people that just think the world is there to serve them and live off the kind hearts of others.. She is one of those. Forget about her and she will move on to the next kind hearted person.

    Not to make excuses (don't owe anyone an excuse, even you Scootersmom), but the Westport Humane Society has foster homes that he can go to AND, Westport is a very rich, affluent town with a totally different class of people. If this gives Baby even a remote chance of finding a home he truly deserves, then that is what I'm going to do.

    Answer your question Scootersmom???

    Donna,
    Please don't go off on me.

    If it were a kill shelter I was going to call the ONLY person I know in Connecticut and offer to pay for him to take the cat. Bryan can't afford it, but I would have sent him money for food and vet care. Even though I can't afford it either. He could have at least kept the kitty long enough to find a permanent home for the kitty. Bryan is in Vernon, btw.

    I realize you're stressed, but before you go jumping all over me for asking that question, maybe you should have found out WHY.

    Since the kitty is not in danger of a kill shelter, I won't bother my friend - since he can't afford another pet at the moment. Disabled veterans don't make much money.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
