I know that based on what some of you see this is nothing, but it is just another example of human callousness to me. I can't believe that she would be that selfish. And you are all right, a dog is even more work (regardless of the size). but she doesn't seem to think of it that way. When she was on holidays her mother had a dog and she enjoyed the time she spent with it. I tried to explain that she was on holidays then and had the time, but when she is working and travelling (for work) she won't have the time with a dog. It is almost like she wants the latest "toy" and doesn't realize this is an animal with feelings and a life

Now that I know what she is thinking I am definitely going to keep an eye on things to make sure that she doesn't get rid of them without contacting me. I figure maybe by the summer time she will be tired of the third cat and want to get rid of it also
