    I don't know why I am answering this question..BUT there is honestly no way that every cat will be spayed/neutered. There are too many irresponsible/selfish people in this world. AND YES, I think a person is irresponsible if they allow their cat to get pregnant and then dump her/babies at the shelter so they can be someone else's problem.

    You bring a cat into your home to love them and provide the necessities they need to have a happy, healthy life. A happy, healthy life does not include allowing your cat to have litter, after litter, after litter when there are 11 MILLION cats and dogs euthanized each year. 11 MILLION? Do you have a concept of how many that is? Those creatures did not ask to be born into a world where they aren't loved and are killed for it. That simply sickens me.

    PS I do understand that there are circumstances under which a person can no longer keep a pet/pets, but it is your responsiblity to ensure them a new home or take them to a no-kill shelter.

    well well well, it seems that everyone is starting to be nice, I think Finigan gave some of you a taste of your own words. but he is doing the same thing that some of you did to me.

    Some people are being very nice and a big thanx to that.

    I'm glad many of you posted what needed to be said in a nicer tone. Posting with harshness and personally abusing others ends up giving the opposite effect of what you really want. Posting so harshly makes YOU the bad one. Educating someone with love and kindness is much better than cussing at them.
    well someone actually believes being nicer works.

    well i am not saying i do as much as everyone else, but most people don't realize how much stuff i do and assume i am young so i can't possibly do this and do that but i have rescued cats, dogs, and even a lot of the animals on my farm which lots of people don't realize how hard it is but some do, just in other perspectives.

    Wouldn't it have been nice if someone had provided links to sites that offer guidence in caring for a pregnant cat?
    and i want people to ask me if i know how to do this and that because i know how to take care of a pregnant cat, i know how to take care of alot of things. i would prefer if people please asked me if i knew how, not just asume cause i am younger, i don't know. i don't mean to be mean.
    so please don't asume what i can and cannot do.




    Thanks for sharing. I hope QueenChyna will understand what everyone's saying after seeing those slideshows.
    Theres another for example! please don't do that! it makes me angry.

    For those of you who are being "humane" by saying every animal should be spayed/nuetered to prevent cat reproduction, who are you to decide which animals should get fixed and which ones shouldn't? If we fix every goat in this world (example) then would we be able to have any more goats? No. Whose cats get the luxury (and reproductive organs) of not being fixed? I mean, you have to keep at least one or two little critters around to keep the babies pumping, otherwise you may end up with no kitties. And everybody loves kitties.
    Coming from a breeder, and also a rescuer I know the many lives that are lost each year due to people who breed irresponsibly. There are MANY responsible breeders out there who are breeding to better the breed and create more loving, healthy companion animals for those who do love and appreciate what purebreds offer. There are already tons of breeders out there doing this, with PUREBRED animals, not mixed breeds. If you breed a cat who is not purebred there is no known history of genetic flaws etc. And why make more when there are already so many others out there doing the same exact thing?

    I wasn't assuming. I was just trying to make a point, sheesh.

    Also, why would those links make you angry? It's a fact, there is nothing to get angry about except being mad at all the people who contributed to those animals dying.

    Yes, why would they make you angry? We are JUST trying to educate those who might be uneducated! Some people just let their cats run off and have kittens! What if there was a problem?? Some people just let the kittens go, and then find them in a couple weeks and then they will be wild! Or, there might be complications. We are just trying to help.

    you think i do what????

    Ok, I am going to make this clear enough for you to understand, but still try to be nice.

    YOU NEED TO SEE THOSE LINKS, AND BE DIRECTED THEM. We are taking our time to show you these, we obviously find it important. And it IS! Very important. Did you even watch them? We're trying to tell you this as nice as we can, but honestly, just watch them, and THEN maybe you will be thinking differently.

    No point in getting uppity about people trying to help. Having an attitude doesn't help matters much.

    Again, I'm going to explain this nicely, even though it is plain as day.

    We are trying to help you, nicely. You need to understand that many cats die every day because of people like you. You need to stop letting all your cats have kittens, because they're kittens haave kittens and so on. Just THINK about it for a moment, do you have any idea how many kittens you could get? And what happens to them? They DIE. But that is probably better for them, than the life they would get anyway. We just care about the cats.
