Tiger Ranch charges dropped!

You are being to harsh and I don't believe that you really know what it takes to take care of animals; otherwise you would not be so judgmental.

Yeahhhhhhh.... which shows how much you really do know me.

I'm guessing you also don't know the meaning of the word "hypocrite", as you are doing some judging in your statement.

What she succeeded in was not caring for the animals, although it probably started that way.

I take in the number of animals that I can responsibly care for. If I can't care for them, it's not in their best interests or mine for them to be here. Think about quality of care vs. quantity of animals. You can't do them any good if you can't take care of them. I don't care what number of animals anyone has... you can't take care of them, can't afford to take them to the vet, that's not helping them.

I stand by my statements. You want to get personal about me, take it to a private message.

Jenn, did you know Lin Marie personally? I did know her, volunteered for her, and took some cats to get spayed there, but took them back to the farm I got them. I understand your anger and hope that you can someday get past this, but she really isn't a bad person, but just in a bad situation. All I'm saying is I hope she relives her goal to start over, but with limitations. I hope she has learned her limitations and re-evaluates her views on euthanasia and who gives her animals so she doesn't get overpopulated. Thats all.

UGH. You really over analyzed my post. I'm not angry nor hostile about Lin Marie. I never said she was a "bad person". There's nothing for me to get past... not sure what you are implying by that statement. The entire situation was sad and upsetting, and unfortunately, there are others just like happening all around the country.

If she starts again, and it ends up the way this past situation did, that would be a tragedy. I hope that if she does continue in rescue, she re-evaluate her process and the number of animals she takes in.

You take in what you can handle responsibly. If you can't care for them, can't get them spayed and neutered and they end up having more kittens, you're adding to the problem. If they are sick, and you can't take them to the vet, and they either spread the illness or die, how is that helping them? It's not. It may make you feel better saying "Oh, I rescued ___ number of cats.", but does it make you feel better when you also should admit you can't care for them properly, and that you're adding to the overpopulation situation?

It may sound heartless, but, you can't save them all.
