From those in the know, the evidence against Caboodle Ranch is
overwhelming.
A hotline has been set up for people that want to try to get their
cats back.


What? ... for people who want to get their cats back?! Um, people who
left them at the 'sanctuary' in the first place? That's ridiculous. If
they couldn't, for whatever reason, care for the cat(s) and left them at
Caboodle, what happens if the reclaimed cats have severe health problems
now? Don't give them back to people who dropped them off! IMHO


Also, a disposition hearing has been set for March 28th to determine
who gets the cats. Craig and Nanette should not be allowed to be
within 100 miles of any of these poor creatures (or any other cats,
for that matter) that have suffered at their hands.


I've read online newsclips and seen the same videos you have. I can't
offer an opinion about their guilt or innocence. I'm not there; I've
never been there. I do know media today tends to sensationalize. The
more negative the better, it seems I wouldn't want to be sitting on a
jury for this one, though. I'd have to see more than media hype to be
able to render a decision.


There has to be more than media hype here, otherwise, surely, the
newspapers
could be sued for libel.

*"Catsunn" has been all over the internet posting lies in defense of
Caboodle Ranch. These pictures taken on the scene by different
visitors to Caboodle Ranch don't lie:http://www.flickr.com/photos/caboodleranch_deathcamp/

It takes a lot of evidence for a prosecutor to take on a case such as
this. Court cases like this cost a lot of money and they wouldn't move
forward on this if they didn't believe they had a winnable case. This
is not based on one PETA video. There are mountains of evidence
spanning a long time and there is no denying the sick, the dying, and
the dead cats- and that's just for starters.

What can I say? *But Dan went there a year ago and he said it was good and I
believe that.


Craig was a master at hiding the disaster. I have no doubt that what
Dan was "allowed" to see looked ok.


This is horrible if they are true photos from there.


They ARE true. Most were people that went down to volunteer and came
back with an entirely different, horrified perspective of what was
happening there.

When I look at these, it really shocks me and makes me realise how lucky my
boy is. *The worst thing he worries about is if his meal is 5 minutes late
or whether or not to get on his duvet. *Or should he go out on rat patrol
when he can't really be bothered.


And hopefully these cats will go on to have the same worries as your
treasured boy. They deserve nothing less.
