Catty I truly wish you well with the surgery, I know it can be very stressful (not trying to derail the thread) and I know you have good intentions in this whole thing, as well as Michelle.


Trust me I KNOW what it's like to have hard times. I've eaten out of garbage cans as a young child and lived on my own since I was 16, so there is no need to tell me about age either. There are priorities in life that people have to learn to make for themselves. I do not want anyone's pets to suffer or be put to sleep, but honestly it was the attitude it was brought forth with that made it seem so frustrating I guess.

Just last month she was begging people to buy her items on ebay for 20-40 dollars and she would send them the money. If she had that last month she should have used it on her pets. She's had money to buy other fish and other things, wants 300 dollar cameras, but not save it up for what her pets need, then with a glib fashion of "oh well we can't afford it, please give me money" she asks for people to take care of basic care for her pets. It's about proirities, and making them if you are going to be a pet owner. It's time to grow up and stop being selfish and if you are going to have the pets, take care of them, not buy yourself things.

I do understand right now they are in a tight spot, but the animals went without those shots ,etc this long, the only priority should be spaying the one cat to stop the problems. I also still feel they should be rehomed to take the stress off of her mom about putting food in their mouths but since I can't do anything about it, I don't live there, I can't say you need to rehome them. I feel bad for the situation, but some of it just comes down to choices. I hope it all works out in the end.
