She IS completely heartless. We (dad, sister and I) have come to that conclusion a long time ago.)

This has happened before. If you remember back a couple years she again, got rid of our three cats behind my back. They had threatened me with it, but they had never actually gone through with it. One day she finally did, and I came home and she just came out and told me they were gone, before even saying hi to me. I almost think she did it just to see me break down and cry.

Heidi, I know you would have taken them at the drop of a hat. I had TOLD my mother that if we got them vaccinated, Madison would be able to take them, no questions asked. My mom was totally okay with that. TOTALLY.

Then all of a sudden, BANG. They're gone. I had NO control over what happened.

Please don't be angry with me, Heidi. I know you could have taken them, but my mother would have let me, seeing as I know you from the internet. There was no possible way my mother would go out of her way to bring them to you. It just wouldn't have worked. We agreed on giving them to my friend so I could still be close with them.

I'm sorry for the letdown, everyone.
