I don't usually give the benefit of the doubt because that phrase came into being for a reason: they benefit while you doubt. However.....I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that you should stop biting your tongue and speak to this girl. If she's never had a pet before, she may not realize what's she's doing. Or not doing. When I was growing up, cats just came to me and I was only allowed to keep them if they stayed outdoors. They could come in to eat and play a while but my father felt that animals belonged outdoors. Consequently, living in the city, all of my cats died young. Even when I became an adult, my cats were indoor/outdoor. Fortunately, nothing happened to those cats but I still didn't have much sense regarding taking care of them. Compassion, yes but that's about it. Thank goodness I had a good vet who schooled me. If, after you talk to her, she still doesn't take care of the kitty, why not offer to take it off her hands and then find another, more suitable home for it? I know, that's going above and beyond but this little calico deserves a chance and even if no harm comes to her, it doesn't sound as though she's going to get much attention other than food and water, let alone good vet care and a loving human family. Good luck and keep us posted. Thank you so much for caring.
