Free 2 Year Old Male Cat ****UPDATE TIGGERS AT MY HOUSE**

[dukedogsmom]

I hardly ever venture over here but I'd be willing to pay a little, also. I detest irresponsible people! And it's always the animals that suffer, too.

I'll give some too! If you can get the name of the clinic - or if they can do it right at the shelter - post or PM the name, and find out how much it is! Then we can pitch in!

If they can get him taken care of there, and then arrange transport for here...

I don't have the authority to say what will or will not be paid for with the shelter I volunteer with. Can the owner and/or Annika get him tested? Can they get him neutered? Can they get him a clean bill of health? We've had so many come through that have been labeled "healthy" or saying that they are shy or whatever, and they've been really sick. Ask Jen L... she'll verify it.

If Annika or the owners can get this done, I'd take him in and then hopefully we could get him to PetSmart to get adopted. He looks like a sweetheart, so hopefully he'll have a personality to match and be adoptable material.

I don't like to sound heartless or anything, but my hands are tied to a point, and there are things that need to be taken care of before I could take him in. I hope that everyone understands this.

Anikaca77 - please find out from your friend how much the neuter, shots and checkup would be. And see if she knows any people who could transport, even to where a PTr or another volunteer lives.

Thanks!

Ok, Everyone:

Here is the update:

I just talked with the owner of Tigger and she is just AGGGGGGGG

I'm so freaking mad at her. She has left Tigger out in the woods behind her house and tried to leave him there but she said he keeps coming back!!! (She actually laughed that he keep coming back) I'm so ticked! She's young I think and just doesn't care.

I'm so angry right now, but I had to keep my cool for Tigger's sake.

Anyways, I asked her if she would be willing or able to get Tigger fixed, get a medical exam, shots, FIV/combo test and she said she will have to call me back tomorrow night to discuss whether she can or not.

Next, I will be willing to go get this cat on this coming Saturday but I just can't keep him at my house. I have 6 cats now (I just adopted another this past weekend) and I don't have anymore room in my small one bedroom place.

Jenn where do you live??

I live in State College, PA it's about 2 1/2 - 3 hrs to get hubbard and then back to state college which will be about 6 hours in the car and gas...ouch...especially with my husband just starting his new job and he won't get paid till the end of Sept but we'll try to make do some how for Tiggers sake.

If you want to PM and we can exchange phone numbers to try to work this out better that would work.

I totally understand that you don't want Tigger to come into your home without being tested and I totally feel the same way I'm just stuck until I hear back from this girl about whether she can get her own cat fixed or not.

I do have a spay/neuter voucher from the Centre Hall SPCA (I have to go there and pick it up but that shouldn't be hard) but I'm just stuck at this point with what to do with him after I get him.

I will tell Ashley (the semi-owner of Tigger) that I have a voucher to get him fixed if I could send it to her vets but she needs to make sure it's done before I get there so that way at least that would be taken care of and figure out how to pay for the medical expenses and what not.

I will keep everyone updated as to what she has to say tomorrow night.

Melissa - thanks. Would this "girl" even GET Tigger to a vet?

Anyway, I have some $$ to help with gas and medical stuff.

Could Ashley not take him in for a little while?

Anyway, looking forward to updates.

POOR TIGGER - he kept coming back to her and she just laughed???!!?

Can you get a spay voucher for HER?

[Anikaca77]

Cathy,

I don't know if she would even get Tigger to a vet. Who knows. Thank you very much for saying you would help with gas and medical stuff I appreciate and.

Ashley is actually the owner of Tigger, my husband is going to check wit h a friend but we'll see about that option.

Hopefully maybe if it comes down to it the friend of Ashely will take the cat for a little while but we'll see tomorrow night.

Thanks again,
Melissa

Melissa, this person sounds like someone I wouldn't trust to get Tigger to the vet and get the medical stuff done that needs to be done before Jenn can take Tigger. I know you are full at the moment but I was wondering if the best thing to do for Tigger would be for you to go pick him up and see about boarding him at the vet asnd getting the medical stuff done while he is there. i realize that takes money and maybe with the donations that have been offered the vet bill and boarding can be taken out of the donations. It is so cruel for them to leave him in the woods and how sad that he finds his way back to people that could care less for him. he sounds like a sweetheart and I wish I could take him.

Melissa,

I could check on the boarding costs of the one place I know and see if it would work.

I'll keep you all posted.

Thanks,
Melissa
