I don't get it...

maybe she didnt want to rehome them.. since you did say she had the cat for 13 years!!! she probably loved her cats VERY much and couldnt bare to part with them... I could understand her side and yours.. It must have been horrid for her to go through all this.. Im glad you stayed professional.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand why it would make sense to KILL your pets rather than rehome them. Yes, that definately shows a lot of love.

What upsets me the most is there "new pets" came before there cats that they have had for years.

I know several people that are still under the impression that once an animal bites you, it craves the taste of blood. Perhaps they felt that they needed to put the cats to sleep in order to keep them from hurting people. I know alot of people that would put their animals down before giving them to someone else. I, personally, wouldn't do it, but I understand that everyone feels that no one else can give their pets as good a home as they -- and I understand even more the thought of someone else owning my pets.

People will do what they'll do, whether it's right or wrong. The animals are in a better place, that's what counts.

I also agree that the dogs weren't dumb --- dogs are dogs. They chase cats. They catch cats. They don't know better.
