    Well, that's what I've wondered, if she made up the kitten's fate or the kitten itself just to get attention. ..if she's a troll who likes to "make things happen" (because she isn't doing so very well in her own life) and especially to get some bleeding-hearts out there jumping through hoops as a means of drawing concern and admiration around herself (which she also isn't doing very well in her own life).
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.

    This is the third on-line rescue attempt I've gotten involved in in the last few months.

    First there was Mila, the disabled kitty from Chicago, whom I was going to adopt last summer, only the first-part transporter decided to keep her (or rather, catnapped her).. http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...highlight=Mila

    And now this baby, who I can only hope and pray is now in a safe, loving, indoor forever home..

    But the second one was Bob the CH Boy from Grand Rapids who is now Bob the CH Boy from Ann Arbor! ..a beloved, happy, treasured member of our family.. http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...b+grand+rapids

    I often wondered if there was a kitten, too. I agree that she's probably a troll but that's as far as I can take it. I have no sympathy or empathy for her.
    Blessings,

    I have no sympathy or empathy for HER either.. my thought is, she draws it to the alleged kitten and basks in it and at the same time thinks she draws attention and admiration to herself for "trying to help" the kitten.

    You have about the same mindset as me. I think this person was - and still is - a troll who just wishes to draw attention to itself.

    I also think that she probably logged on to PT and read this thread and everything we had to say and that's why she came up w/this cock and bull story.

    After reading this thread, I don't know what to think. As always, members of our fine PT family stepped up to help a kitten in need---allegedly. Sure this Charity person is busy, who isn't these days? There's way too much here that just doesn't make any sense. No matter what all of you were willing to do to rescue the kitty, obstacles and roadblocks always followed. There's a credibility issue here, Charity simply doesn't have any! And her accusation that PT'ers were "bothering" her with calls and e-mails after she asked for help is, to me, totally offensive. She belongs in jail!!!!!!!

    I believe that vBulletin keeps a log of everyone who enters the site, or the Apache Web Server does, either one. Karen or Paul could check and see if she did.

    Reggie - it's now doubtful that there WAS a kitten. This lady said that she talked to some neighbours about the OTHER neighbours, and was told that the kitten was given away.

    After all her concerns about getting the kitten a home before Hallowe'en, she sent a very testy letter about being nagged and harrassed by Anikaca77 and phesina.

    She may have been a troll, or just a nut case wanting attention...or whatever.

    It's done, anyway.
