It's still not too late to do something, but you've made it clear that you've already written this kitten off and you're nothing short of despicable for doing so. Megan You know I like you Megan and admire your knowledge and your work with cats, but you cannot possibly know how others lives are. I've actually been hoping for the past couple of months that she would not be too mad at all of us, and come back to the newsgroup. I also hoped that she would go easy on us this time around, but no such luck. But to be honest, I've never been able to get offended by Megan. Her posts are so extreme, they almost need a BW. I hope she'll stick around longer this time, even if she ends up posting 95% flames and 5% anecdotes. |

Sorry to follow up on my own post, but I thought I might save Megan the trouble, in case she was busy. Tak, it really irks me when you greet me, you abhorrent and shameful excuse for a human being. You have shown yourself to unworthy of owning a cat. I have never seen such an irresponsible, selfish, and coldhearted individual. I truly feel sorry for your Betty, as well as the *millions* of cats that are put to sleep every year because of persons like yourself. |

at wrote on 9/26/04 8:13 PM: Myself, I think Ginger-lyn did her best. No, she didn't. This is not over yet. If it went wrong, it went wrong. Oh, so in your book if something goes wrong you should just throw your hands up and walk away instead of trying to make things right? That's cowardly. Giving people a guilt trip when they think they've done the best they can isn't helpful, Megan. She hasn't even come close to doing the best she can, and I gave her a pretty damn good reason not to give up and a way to prove the kitten is indeed hers. It's amazingly sad and unfathomable that you, and unfortunately many others here, who profess to be such cat lovers, are so ready to just accept that this innocent kitten will get declawed instead of holding Ginger-lyn accountable for ensuring that the welfare of this animal comes first. She has spent her posting time in this thread making excuses and assumptions without lifting a finger to actually do anything. If she spent as much time actually trying to get this kitten back as she does boo-hooing on this newsgroup she might have accomplished something by now. But it seems she's more than happy to allow this kitten to suffer abuse *again* (she already did it to her once.) I just don't get it. WTF is wrong with you people that you won't take a stand and advocate for the welfare of this kitten? Why do you just say nothing and defend the indefensible? You're more concerned with hurting Ginger-lyn's feelngs than for a kitten that has been put in a situation where she is likely going to be harmed for the second time? Don't you get it? Wrong is wrong, even if you happen to like the perpetrator, and defending the person doing wrong makes you complicit in the tragedy that will befall this kitten if Ginger-lyn doesn't quit this tiresome boo-hooing, get off of her ass and take action. It doesn't achieve anything, except to make someone who is doing her best, feel bad. She SHOULD feel bad. She has failed this kitten TWICE now. It's still not too late to do something, but you've made it clear that you've already written this kitten off and you're nothing short of despicable for doing so. Megan You know I like you Megan and admire your knowledge and your work with cats, but you cannot possibly know how others lives are. I do not. You do not. It's not a matter of being cowardly, but of doing the best in your power. I do not believe you have always been able to help every cat you ever knew about in distress. It is simply impossible. Your haranguing is NOT an effective means of helping animals either. You have many, many, many admirable ideas and you are very helpful at times, but this habit you have of badgering people is not helpful and generally harmful and yes, maybe even harmful to the cats as well since you can manage to set some people up to never even try again through your condemnation of any effort. I'm sorry if this angers you toward me because you have given me exceptional help, but I cannot sit by and watch you do this over and over. You are not even consistent in your "wrath" since I am certain you see many things of which you do not approve or where you think people could "do better". Why do you insist on harping on Ginger-Lyn? What is your prejudice? Almost 100 percent of your posts are condemning and belittling. Why do you never ever post in support of something? I'm certain I've done or said things you don't approve of either. It seems like you are completely "after" Ginger-Lyn and I do not understand your venom on one person here. |
