Yes, Tonya, the deputy I talked to was very nice, and he took my name and phone number. He said he would call back if he heard anything, but then he may have just been humoring a weird lady from Wisconsin (LOL) so that I wouldn't call him again. I didn't foam at the mouth or anything; just explained the situation and that I was afraid for the cat.

Even if he is just trying to "annoy his girlfriend" or something, it's a very immature way to deal with a very real problem that the cat apparently has. (He did make some mention about "trying to get a date" in his listing, so I'm thinking he's in the market, although I don't know what girl in her right mind would want to date this cretin.) Whenever these kind of "jokes" are perpetrated, it's always on cats, never dogs, and this kind of garbage does not need a global audience on eBay. There's enough of a problem worldwide with disrespect for cats without this numbskull adding to it.

Fox-Gal, I'm glad you can restrain yourself enough to sweet talk this loser, because as much as I would love to take that cat, I can't control my anger when I think of e-mailing him.
