Oh Donna I am so sad to hear this news too, and I can understand how awful you must be feeling, but please don't berate yourself over this, you still did what you thought was for their best, if they had stayed with that horrible owner, they would have suffered terribly and died eventually a slow and horrible death.

You did what you did with the best intentions, and did the humane society say why they put them to sleep? did they not give the animals the chance for adoption.

Its a real tough cruel world out there, unfortunatley we cannot save them all, so please don't feel so bad or guilty,but by the same token I can well understand why you feel the way you do.

I had to capture a Black Tom here some years ago, they had been trying to get him for years, he was causing so many problems with everyone's cats here, some awful people were tallking about shooting him, he was always in cat fights, and the poor thing was in a terrible state when i caught him, he also looked like he either had rickets or was hit by a car at some stage, as he walked bad, he had pus streaming out his eyes and nose, and I knew when I captured him, what is fate was, he was going to be put to sleep, and I cryed and cryed about it for days, I could just see his pitiful face, I knew it was a blessing for him, but I felt extreme guilt all the same, but it was the people who abandonded him who should , so Donna I know how heavy your heart feels right now, HUGS SWEETIE!!!
