Outside declawed kitty Splinter breaking my heart... *pics*

Katie, I will help out with transport too! PM the people here who offered to take him.

I mean - if this guy is away and kitty "disappears', no one knows what happened!


He looks like such a mushy love bug, tattered ear and all!

If you know the shelter where he was adopted from, I'd sure let them
know Splinter's living conditions & the fact that the cat has been declawed.
I can't imagine any shelter would turn him away, especially if he were adopted there.

Awwww, Splinter. If anyone can help you find a new home, it's KT. I too will help with travel funds.

I wouldn't deal with the loser owner. What I WOULD do is call the army base and report him. It's abuse, neglect, and abandonment. I'd say animal cruelty is a pretty hefty charge.

I rescued a declawed kitty from the naval sub base in Groton a while ago. The poor girl was declawed on all fours and effing family upped and moved away. She was a very lucky girl, though. She has a great home with a woman and her elderly mother in Wethersfield, CT.

Thank you all for the advice and support. It really helps to hear you are doing the right thing sometimes.

Animal Control could not care less. I know that sounds bad, BUT they dont. The only offer I would get is for them to take the cat and make the guy pay a fine. That would not help, and to be honest, I get NERVOUS if he actually does let this kitty in, even for a minute...

And I do not think that the guy would come looking for the cat, if he went *POOF*. He may ask about him, but I could always just deny deny deny. Been there done that!

We bought this house in late December, and when we moved here, the guy was married, and the kitty stayed inside about 75% of the time. Once the woman moved out, the cat went out with her. (3-4 months maybe).

I could cover his vet bills.. I am sure he needs shots. He is fixed already ( I checked ) I have put an advantage on him, and dewormed him myself. He was covered in fleas, so I have done it monthly for about 3 months.

If someone on here truly wants to adopt him, and keep him indoors only and love him, please let me know. I am sure we could get some kind of transport set up. I can cover the vet cost to get him utd and an exam.

Thank you all again for these offers and help. I am sure if Splinter knew that lots of people all over the WORLD are praying and rootin for him, he would have an extra pep in his step

For now he is resting in his cage in my spare room. I have a 4 bedroom house, and EVERYROOM is taken by cats... Go figure

Just glad hubby does feel kinda bad for him. He seems to have struck a cord on Rickies heart... BUT not enough of one to keep him... He says I am allowed 10 cats, and I am 5 over already

Poor Boy, he looks so sweet and desperate for love and affection. What a w***er putting the cat out when he can't possibly defend himself, also an A-hole for getting him declawed in the first place, idiot. I really hope you can find a solution, and as long as the cat knows that he has you to come to, he'll be okay I think. Well Done Katie.

Well...there's Moosmom, sugarpaws and Jen. You're in PA?

How far to OH and IN from there? Jen, you are in PA already, right?

Any other offers?

This guy breaks my heart...I can't take him, but am willing to donate towards his transport to a PT home.

Let me know...............
