Grrr!!! I'm So Angry About This!! Blind Cat Bronx, Ny

[catfamily]

My sister in law emailed her and did not hear back from her.I emailed a couple more times and also did not hear back from her.
I wish she would respond to her letter.
My sister in law lives in the Bronx and so does her friends that trap all the time there and is interested in helping with this.They will find homes or keep them until they find homes.
This is what my sister in law wrote back to me:

HiCarla,
I emailed Chrissy(the blind cat owner) on Friday, and still haven't heard back. Have you heard from her?I spoke to my friend, and she is interested in helping, but Chrissy hasn't responded.Let me know if you know anything else.
Thanks, nina

Thank you Carla for trying to help this woman find help for her cats. I sure hope she does right by them, and does NOT put them out on the streets. Every time I even hear that term, I recall the poor dead cat I peeled off the ice in a driveway 2 Winters ago. Children had seen the cat dead on the ice for a few days, and I had the kids go to their house for trash bags, and then I climbed over a chainlink fence and literally had to pull the poor kitty off the ice where it had froze to death. Not a nice memory.

Cats absolutely cannot live on their own on the streets!
I wish I didn't get so overwhelmed by the thought of homeless cats trying to survive.
It's mostly the ones who have already been inside a home.The thought of them being sent on it's merry way...totally freaks me out!
My cats are like my kids.I can't imagine having them outside scared to death wondering what to do.

Hi Chrissy! I just wanted to say that I am impressed that you would post your two e-mails for us all to read here on PT. It is obvious to me that you love your kitties but have found yourself in a terrible situation! Again, we all here are very passionate about cats, and tend to get caught up in the heat of the moment before we often realize the whole situation. I feel like maybe your stating that you would put Blindey out on the street as a last resort, was an attempt to get more people to respond. Well, either way, it worked! I have no doubt that the people here on PT will get your kitty into a safe and loving indoor home. It might take some work and a little time, but PLEASE don't give up on us!

Sincerely,
Kim

Oh boy, this is disheartening. If I lived closer to this lady, it'd be a done deal, even though I swore that I was done w/rescuing. But the thought of cats out on the streets, esp. in the winter and esp. one being blind is just too much! I wish I could at least help w/transport but living in OH, that isn't doable either. But word is spreading, so it seems as though these cats will all find loving homes.

Blessings,
Mary

Well it's been 10 days since I posted this, and not a ~peep~ regarding the cats from Crissy. I wish I knew what has happened, and if she found someone to take the cats. There is Alana at Blind Cat Rescue that offered to take Blindey. And then there's the 6 others, but I have no clue if anyone's heard anything?

Unbelievable how people ask for help and then do not take the help AND never bother to update!! I mean, she KNEW we cared and yet here we sit, not knowing.
