Cat needs a new home

[Medusa]

I swear that people sometimes think that b/c you have cats, you're ready and willing to take more. It's happened to me more times than I can count. Saying 'no' is difficult b/c, like most people on PT, I want to take it but just can't. Did you mention to them that they could drive the kitty to a no kill shelter and that you're still battling bronchitis? Hope you feel better soon.

I did tell them about the Humane society just 30 miles from us. They do adopt cats out. Maybe for a monthly fee, they would keep the cat until she was adopted.

I never mentioned I've been sick. I didn't feel up to it. I haven't been out of the house in over a week. I do need to venture out to Walmart tomorrow. I have to get my blood pressure meds and some kitty supplies for the weekend. Maybe I'll get her or her husband as a driver and they will tell me they found a home for the cat. fingers crossed here.

I am sorry, MOFF, that you are feeling the stress of this. Even a well reasoned 'no' is hard, isn't it?

I had a very similar situation present two weeks ago. Someone approached me with questions about neighbor's cat. It was obvious to me within two minutes this was nothing but a fishing expedition on could I or someone I know take their cat. It kind of peeved me. I am totally willing to help/answer anyone's legitimate questions about their cat. Don't pretend to seek answers to these questions just as a way to unload it on me. As if the 8 I have isn't enough.
