Kitten 6-8 Weeks, Kids Abuse it. HEARD FROM HER TODAY THURSDAY!

[Catty1]

Prayers that this kitten is all right!

[Medusa]

If the kitten is ok, she's going to need to give out her phone number and home address eventually to allow people to come to see the kitten. You gave her your phone number but she said she doesn't have long distance calling. Makes no sense. Not on your part, Melissa, but on hers. Will keep you and this little kitten in my prayers and hope for a good update.

I am getting more and more worried about this kitten, and I join in the prayers that she is safe and will remain safe from now on.

I am thinking of e-mailing the woman directly to introduce myself as the one to begin the transport to Melissa. I assume you told her about me, Melissa? Have you heard anything further from her yet?

I'll tell her that I will be glad to go to Jackson (about 40-45 miles away), or wherever she wants to meet, any time, and pick up the kitten and keep her safely with me until further transport is arranged.

I can give her references on me that she can check, such as the cat shelter and our vet and some of my petsitting clients.

Thanks for everything, to all of you who are helping materially and/or spiritually to rescue this baby.

I am very worried that this baby hasn't been seen for a couple of days.

Pat, I hope you can email this woman directly!

Candace, I just did.. I'll keep you all posted.

[phesina]

I just got an e-mail message from the woman who is trying to rescue the kitten. She said "Shes okay, I just drove by my neighbors house and the kitten was sitting outside on their steps."

Now she is going to ask the "owners" (yuck) if they want to rehome her.. and... if she does decide to let her go to Melissa.. well, she would like me to reassure her that, in fact, the kitten "will be loved, taken care of and an indoor cat."

I am in the process of writing her back, telling her how happy I am to learn the kitty is safe and assuring her that Melissa will give her a safe, indoor home where she will be deeply loved and beautifully cared for.

You folks who have known Melissa longer than I have, please give me some additional comments I can pass along to this woman!

I hope to be heading out I-94 to Jackson in the next few days.

Thank GOD the baby is safe! And please keep on with the prayers and good wishes and strong energies that she will soon be out of that awful "home" and on her way to a lifetime of comfort and safety and love.

I think the fact that Melissa just lost her precious Anika not even a week ago speaks volumes for her and how devoted she is to seeing that this kitten has a good home.

[phesina]

Thanks, Mary. I did bring up Melissa's devotion and care for her beloved Anika and heartbreak at losing her, saying this should tell her a great deal about Melissa and what a fine, loving, safe home she will give this kitten.

She has also gone above and beyond the call of duty to try to help numerous kitties that have been in need, including but certainly not limited to Fatty and Pretty Girl.

[Catty1]

Maybe - with Melissa's permission - send this lady a link to the tribute Melissa wrote for Anika.

(Poor Annie - {{{{hugs}}}} to all that loved her so.)

[Anikaca77]

Thank you Catty.

Anika would want us to take in a kitten that is being mistreated. That's what I'm looking to do, is get this poor kitten some vet care, and get her taken care of.

I'm just looking forward to getting this kitten to be indoors and loving her.

Thank you all for your wonderful comments,

Melissa

Just wanted to let everyone know we are still waiting to hear back from this women.

It doesn't look like I will be picking her up this weekend. I hope next weekend for sure. I just wish I knew what was going on.

This was the last reply that I heard from her which was Wed. morning. Pat and I have both asked this women for her neighbors address so that we can drive there and get the kitten ourselves but we haven't heard anything yet. At least we know the kitten is still around.

Here is her reply from Wed. morning:

"Sorry, I haven't replyed lately, I haven't
been online.

And yes, I seen the kitten again today outside.
So, shes still around. I will try and talk to
my neighbors tomorrow and see what I can do, so
Pat can hopefully get her to you this weekend.
I would like her rehomed, before devils night
and halloween, beings shes all black and
should not be outside."




Here is a thread I posted, I put some things up on Ebay to help pay for the kittens vet visit. I just hope I can get this kitten. I really wanted to pick her up this weekend.

If you have her last name and town, and maybe a phone #, I can likely track her down and get you an address.

PM me with any factual information you have.

ETA: Found a "Rey Mysterio" in CA, IN, OH, and CT - nothing in MI anywhere.

Catty,

Actually we don't even know this lady's first name, she never writes it at the end of her e-mails and I asked her the past time I e-mailed her and I'm still waiting on the response.

I asked for her phone number and she never gave it to me. I gave her a calling card # and my phone # to call and Pat gave her # to call as well as we still don't have anything.

Yes I tried to search her name based on her e-mail but nothing

I will e-mail her again later today and see if I can get her phone number.

I told Pam in this mornings e-mail I wonder if the lady spoke with the neighbors to see if they still wanted her to find a home for the kitten and they told her no and she just isen't e-mailing me back.

But I don't know why you would post this up on Petfinder-
http://forums.petfinder.com/viewtopic.php?t=161153

and not want to tell anyone the address where the kitten is at so it can be saved. I understand she doesn't want to be viewed probably as stealing the kitten but she's the one that is asking for "Kitten Desperately Needs A Home" and that's what Pat and I are working on doing but she won't call.

I guess we'll just wait to see what happens.

This is so frustrating. I can imagine how you must feel, especially the closer it gets to Halloween as this woman acknowledged. Boy, we'll sure keep the prayers going for this little one.
