Kitten 6-8 Weeks, Kids Abuse it. HEARD FROM HER TODAY THURSDAY!

[moosmom]

Great idea!! Can I haelp??

[phesina]

Great idea!! Can I help??

Thank you, moosmom! Right now I can't think of anything, but I'll let you know if something comes up. Are you in Michigan also?

Meanwhile, please pray for this little kitten (assuming she's for real) and that we get her out of that awful situation and home with Melissa soon. Please, everybody pray for the little kitten!

Yesterday I e-mailed the Petfinders administrator asking if he/she can find out if this user and story are for real and if so encourage her to let us take the kitty to safety.

Then I wrote another e-mail to the Cascades Humane Society asking if they had any contact information for this person, who had said she called them but they told her they were full or any suggestions on how we can save this kitten. Then I called them to follow up on the e-mail.

I was told that if when she called she was told they were full (and they've been full for months), then there would be no record of the call. One person at the CHS, named Sue, might be able to give me a little assistance, but she won't be in to work until Tuesday (they aren't open Sundays or Mondays).

I asked the person I spoke with if she would e-mail my message to Sue so she will see it before Tuesday, and she said she would.

Still no reply from the admin or responses to my Petfinder and e-mail messages to pugluver/msterio/whatever.. and no phone calls.

Thanks,
Pat

I would suggest sending a email to [email protected] as that will, usually, redirect to someone who can assist.

Thanks, Reggie..

I FINALLY HEARD FROM HER BUT YET NO ANSWERS TO ANY OF MY QUESTIONS?? LIKE HER NAME? HER NEIGHBORS ADDRESS?

The last e-mail I sent her was on Friday asking her to call me with the calling card I gave her telling her I'd like to get this kitten this weekend and that Pat and I would like her's neighbors address as to where the kitten and surprise no answers to anything just do I still want the kitten. I posted my reply under her e-mail I got.

The more I read, the more I really think this is a hoax, and this person is playing a cruel game with all you kind hearted souls that are trying to save this kitten - if the kitten actually exists. Nothing adds up!!!!!!

Yes, something is fishy here although she may just be lazy and will do as little as possible in all this to rescue the kitten. I've known people like this who mention a cat in peril, other people take the necessary action to rescue it, and then they take the credit for it. If that's the case, then so be it as long as the kitten is safe. Prayers are continuing for the kitten and everyone who is diligently working to get it to safety and a good permanent home.

I think it's about time someone at Cascades or etc contacted their cop buddies and got a court order to contact the ISP and find out who the heck this is, and what she is up to.

She DOES have dial-up, and these days it can be really hard to get online if she is in a large and busy area.

Pat, I know you have contacted everybody you can - I hope one of the PetFinder people will contact you!

If and when "we" know her address, and if this is a hoax, I'd be tempted to drive there and throw eggs all over her front window. But then I'D get arrested!

I bet the kitten is in the house with food and water - they wouldn't have taken it with them, I don't think.

Prayers that ALL kittens in trouble get rescued.

OK - maybe I should just shut up and mind my own business, but this whole thing just isn't right - IMO! The pieces just don't fit in this puzzle! In the posts that this person made in Petfinder, she(?) said that the humane society had read her original post asking for help, and emailed her back that they had no openings, yet in her emails that she has sent to Melissa, she said she "called" the humane society and was told there were no openings. So which was it? She won't give her address or phone #, but yet she won't contact Melissa even tho Melissa gave her a calling card # to use. I wonder why??? She also said at least twice that she would go talk to the kitten's owner - so why hasn't she - they aren't gone all the time. She also claims that the kids abused the kitten by kicking it in the head and choking it. If this is the case, and the kitten is outside and not in the house all the time, I would think it would have run away by now. Animals aren't dumb enough to go back for repeated abuse and they leave if given the opportunity most of the time. See where I'm going here??? - nothing makes sense!!! I just have a gut feeling about this.....Maybe a lonely person looking for attention, or perhaps a kid with nothing better to do and sitting back and laughing about the whole thing...????
I don't know - maybe I'm wrong - I hope so!!!

I am suspecting near the same things. The line is not continuous, it branches into two different stories. Nothing fits together right unless you disregard some parts which eliminates the purpose. The fact that she will not allow anyone to contact her in any manner except email is another thing. This is, IMO, a internet troll with nothing better to do in its life.

[Catty1]

Well, let's hope she is nailed soon!

Oops, that was MY mistake, in my report of my telephone call to the Cascades Humane Society: In her Petfinder message she did say the Humane Society had emailed her after seeing her first post there.. but when I called the CHS I just asked about it as I thought I'd remembered it, that she had called them about the kitten.

Either way, the Cascades Humane Society has been full for months and would not have taken the kitten and would not have any further information on the person.

I've been wondering too if this person is just a troll, someone with excess time to fill who likes to stir other people up.

But I'm still checking e-mail and Petfinder and cell-phone messages and such (still nothing on any from her), as long as there's still a chance for the kitten if it might actually exist.

And I still have no response to my message to Petadmin. Reggie, I followed your advice and this morning sent a copy of my Petadmin message to [email protected], thanks.

The humane society would have an email record if they really did send her one - right? Maybe that could be checked out.

Catty,

Since we did hear from her today, I think we should just wait maybe another day or two to see if she talks with the neighbors and gets the kitten before we try to get a court order or scare this women off.

I'm not sure if this is a hoax or not but I have a feeling it is not and that she's just a person who cares but just doesn't have the time to e-mail and call or whatever. I know she has a kid so maybe she has a few and she's just really really busy.

I'm of course very worried about this black kitten but I just think getting a court order might be the wrong thing since she did contact us today.

I'd say if we don't hear from her in 2 days or so then maybe do it or see what Petfinder people say.

They might be able to track down the e-mail, but we would be at the same point of not being able to get further identification of the sender from the ISP without a court order.
