I didn't vote. Why?? Because a couple of months ago, I wanted to adopt a 14 year old kitty named Carrie. She was dumped at the shelter by her owner because, and I quote, "She doesn't play with my children anymore" The whole time, her 9 year old son was clutching Carrie, sobbing his eyes out.
I was MORE than willing to offer her a home. I took her home for a couple of weeks, force feeding her and giving her meds to help her get over an upper respiratory infection. I finally had to take her back to the shelter for medical care.
What did they do??? They put her down because, and I quote again, "Nobody is going to adopt a 14 year old cat and we needed the cage space."
I feel very sorry for these poor sisters. And I am disgusted that the family of the cat's owner wouldn't do what SHOULD be done, take the cats in. When my Dad died, I took his cat in and Tigger lived a very happy existence for another 3 years. I never would've done it any other way.
Shame on them!!!
