    You should suggest it, but I am telling you, it WILL be more excuses...

    Have you given her a vet reference? If so, you can ask her WHY would you spend money on other cats, just to adopt one to kill it? That would be simply outrageous to even think...Maybe agree to make a vet appointment BEFORE picking up the kitten, and give her the info to see you are truthful. Your vet could vouch for you. I know mine would.

    I hate to say this, but I truly dont think you are getting this kitten. I think she is yanking your chain, OR just does not want to be bothered with it. She wants to help, just not enough to get off her lazy butt and do it.. Seen that all too many times before

    Either way, I pray for this kitten. I hope someone knows of this kitten, and the location, and takes it. Maybe someone else will cross its path that will love it. *wishful thinking*


    Thank you so much Michelle!

    Please be responsible, spay and neuter your pets!


    I've been BOO'd!!! Thanks Lori!

    I actually had a vet appointment scheduled for the kitten last monday evening and I told her that, that previous Friday so that way she knew I was going to get it vet checked and cared for. Plus, I made another vet appointment this Monday night thinking I'd be able to take in the kitten but as it turns out I'll have to take in one of my girls because they are having the runs.

    I've never given her the vet references but Pat gave her, she's never asked like how old am I or any questions I would normally ask someone who is interested adopting a cat I've rescued but I'm just going to let this go because I'm sure she will keep giving excuses it's been like this since the beginning and well I'm just getting too frustrated now but I still would like to help this kitten if there is a chance. But like you said I'm sure there will be more excuses as to why she won't do something or she'll tell me that they found a home or it or they are keeping it to get me off her back but I'm not going to e-mail her or call her unless she makes contact with me.

    I hate to say that after all the effort I put into this thing and every weekend waiting and waiting but I've learned my lesson in the case.

    Thank you all again,
    Melissa

    I've been thinking for some time now that the kitten is either dead or missing and she's been afraid to say anything to you. I haven't wanted to say this because I wanted to stay positive even though I was angry but her last email to you is indicative of someone who is carrying guilt. She doesn't like the constant reminder that she asked for help, then thwarted your efforts to save the kitten. Someone who truly wants help accepts it w/out conditions and excuses. I wish the situation was different but it isn't, so it may be time to let it go. This is one of those times when we're going to have to trust that God sees all and, if you're to rescue this kitten, events will turn in your favor.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I'm with Medussa...if the kitten hasn't been caught yet or seen...something must be wrong..or someone else hopefully brought it into their home.hopefully it is in someone's home happy and getting food and good sleep like a happy kitten should.
    i hope...we all hope.
    i'll say a prayer for this kitty.

    Thank You Kim for this wonderful siggy

    Also, if she didn't want to give out her address or phone number, how in the world were you supposed to help her? How were you supposed to get the kitten from her? Were you going to meet at a designated spot? If someone is sincerely asking for help, then a certain level of trust has to be there. She's turning the situation back on you and Pat rather than taking responsibility for this entire fiasco.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    i still am shocked that she would put you down for wanting the cat before Halloween
    knowing you're a rescuer.she can't be that stupid not to know you wanted it saved.
    how ignorant!
    i think she wanted attention,or just isn't right in the head!

    This afternoon she sent the following reply to me:

    The kitten has already been placed in a new home.
    I spoke to my neighbors aunt today about the
    kitten, beings, I couldn't get a hold of my
    neighbors and she said, they found her a home.


    I hope this is true! There's no way to know for sure, but at least we're out of it now.

    Way back I had this turkey pegged as being a few cans short of a six-pack.. but I've been so worried, IF this kitten is for real and it's really in this awful fix, and I'm so close.. am I not going to be able to help because I haven't handled the woman the right way?
