I'm so sorry, hun. I know this isn't the first time you've had a horrible run in with your mother. I wish you the best and hope the years go by fast enough so you can get the heck away from her.

My mom did this to EVERY dog we had. The one's SHE brought home, it wasn't like I said, "Look mom! He followed me home. Can we keep him??" After the 2nd dog, I stopped showing any enthusiasm for dogs and thankfully, we never had anymore. It just wasn't fair to the dogs - or us.

I can remember sitting outside the night before she told us she was taking the dog (Lucky) to the pound. I sat there with my arms wrapped around his neck, crying my eyes out. She didn't even have the decency or balls to take the dog to a person, she dropped him off in those overnight cages!!! Before that, she gave away our childhood dog during their divorce.

I'm very, very sorry. There is NO excuse for what she did, especially with someone here on PT willing to take them. It seems intentional and ruthlessly mean. I'm so sorry, honey.

In the future, I wouldn't subject anymore animals to her, if you can help it.

Take care,
Kelly

P.S. Catty has an excellent idea to tell your friend where the kittens were taken to. Or...heidiv as well.
