Please help! Must find homes immediately for four cats! UPDATE

[Prairie Purrs]

Do you think someone made a complaint in your neighborhood?

A neighbor complained about the feral cats, and they zeroed in on me because I was providing food and shelter for the ferals--while working with a local organization to schedule TNR. But the neighbor doesn't want TNR--she wants the ferals eliminated. And she'll probably get her wish.

So once I was on the city's radar, they decided that I fit the deranged cat horder profile. And here we are.

Well, another zoning officer showed up ... to do an inspection.

Then she called my landlord and told him that the city has me "profiled" as a literal crazy cat lady --
a middle-aged, psychologically disturbed female with dozens of cats.

She also told him ... they plan to count the cats by putting them in cages -
and then they'll take them away!

I think you need to talk to an ATTORNEY - NOW!
I find it hard to believe that a couple of "Inspectors" can label you a "disturbed female"
and order your cats to be removed - without any legal hearings.

Step one is to make sure the cats are safe. That's in the works right now.

Step two is to get some guidance on procedural issues and get a complaint and motion for an injunction drafted. I've never been a litigator, but I've had enough of a law school education to be able to smell a cause of action.

Why the same "H" are they being so mean about this. And what RIGHT do they have to deem you a "Psychologically disturbed female."

I don't understand this at all, at all. If the law says that you ARE allowed to have 5 animals and you are going to be placing the other 4, then why are they threatening to take away ALL of them.

This situation is going from terrible to worse.

Big time Prayers on the way that this can all be resolved very shortly.

Is there room in your car even to make 2 or 3 trips tonight to get the cats out and put somewhere safe tonight.Or tomorrow
Work a few rides for the next 2 days to get them OUT.These people are HEARTLESS!!!!!
I'm FREAKING out!!!!

My husband just said noone can just come into your home and touch your cats unless you are tricked into it.
Don't let them trick you!!
Especially by saying all they are doing is counting...they will
run out the door with them and in court say you let them do it.
But get the cats out as soon as you can.I hope you can get them out within a day or 2.

I don't have a car. Or anyplace right now to take them. I think (hope) the city will stay away until Friday the 23rd--my next court date. I'm hoping to have them all placed by this Friday, but it's not settled yet.
