Tina I am not sure on the whole story here, why are you so worried people will blast you, is it because you have said you really cannot afford another animal or have already given one away, if that is the case you really have to ask yourself have you done the right thing?

Getting another pet you cannot afford will only add pressure and make you more depressed if you are struggling, again I really don't know the full story.

I myself desperately want to adopt a cat called Tina, but I know I just have not the financial capacity to do so, and both my cats would suffer as a result, so as much as it pains me, I have to tell myself Tina will eventually get a great home, and I am positive she will.

I am not judging you Tina,or blasting you in anyway, if you feel comfortable with your decision to adopt Jake, then so be it.

Tina I guess you have to ask yourself, can you give Jake everything he needs, or would he be better elsewhere, or have you saved him from worse, death perhaps, only you and you alone can know if getting Jake is the right thing for you and your family.
