"Karen" wrote in message ... "Nomen Nescio" ] wrote in message ... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- From: "Karen" Well, take a look at his follow up post. He started getting threatening letters and phone calls. NO! He SAYS He started getting threatening letters and phone calls. He also SAID he never picked up the cat from the shelter. Now he's trying to BS his way out of the hole he dug himself into. I haven't seen this much SPIN put on something since I watched the Wimbledon finals last week. I'd say he was absolutely right to just stop communicating. Does that really make sense to you? Look, anything makes sense to me when dealing with the whacko Mary. Maybe you haven't been reading her posts as long as I have but believe me, the woman flips on a dime from friendly to screaming hellcat over, well, pretty much anything. I"ve seen it happen MULTIPLE times online. So, yeah, where she is concerned, it *could* make absolute sense. If she doesn't like that it's too bad because it is her own past behaviour that makes me so leery of everything she posts. On the other hand, for the same amount of time I've been reading Dan and he's as stable as she is nuts. So from my OWN experience with the two people over an extended period of time, on usenet I'd take Dan's word over Mary's word anyday. And yet you have no evidence at all that I have ever lied to anyone. You are like a little child who knows she is busted, but just keeps on acting like everything is fine, hoping nobody will notice. It's kind of cute. Sad in a middle-aged woman, but a little cute, I guess. |

He started getting threatening letters and phone calls. I'd say he was absolutely right to just stop communicating. That was BEFORE the (OMG *GASP* NO) resuce of Conan from the KILL shelter. If you are going to kiss and tell. Tell all yourself. He also didn't say that he knew who was communicating with him BEFORE he went for Conan. Maybe it was the same people who were calling the shelter and trying to put the kibosh on the whole rescue NOT Mary or anyone that was trying to work with her to rescue this cat. It makes no logical sense otherwise. What possible motive would Mary have to threaten Dan at that point. Dan didn't stop communicating at that point either. He wove that wonderful story about getting to the shelter too late and then he stopped communicating. Ya know a simple, I got the cat, I'm being threatened and don't want any further involvement and a mail rule blocking incoming would have done the trick without the drama and still maintained credibility. But that's just my 2¢ W I only know my personal experiences with Mary over the space of a year or two on internet and I find her completely unstable in her with her switch and bait tactics. She has also tried to intimidate me with posting in such a way as to let me know that SHE knows personal information about me. Would she act on it? Maybe not, but I know that she regularly uses this type of pyschological strong arming. IMO there is little difference between her and what she is complaining about in regards to others. I"m sorry, but in MY experience with her, well, let's just say I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her and I don't blame Dan for beginning to get leary once odd things started happening. What amazes me is how while everybody *talks* as though they are worried about Conan and one has to wonder. He is NOT going to be euthanized, he will find a home that is going to be apparently better than good -(considering what we do know about this situation) and the goal was achieved. But people can't seem to focus on THAT at all. Instead they are just SCAAAANdalized about everything. Hello? What is the truly bottom line important thing? Conan is OK. I"m sorry, but wherever he is being boarded is probably leagues better than a **county kill shelter** and a home is being actively sought. I would think that is what should matter. The problem with him being boarded is that it's not somewhere people normally look when they are interested in adopting a cat. I'd rather see him in a no kill shelter where he could be seen and then totally neutral people would be vetting prospective adopters. And just how do you know who is and is not seeing Conan? If he's in a boarding facility it isn't a place that people browse when looking for a cat. If he has been put in a no kill shelter then yay! |

wrote: If I read correctly, Dan isn't laying this on anyone. The OP are making assumptions. "And since I can't be absolutely sure who is responsible for the threatening messages, I'm just not sharing info with anyone" Perhaps he shoudl have somebody look into and track it down. It sounds like it would be very interesting to know who was threatening him. Nobody in Mary's group had any reason to since it seemed to be going as planned. It had to be somebody who wanted to stop the plan. Tell Dan to ask to report it to his phone company. Especially, if there are more than 3 calls. That will take it to the police, and they can find out who really did make those calls. -- Meghan & the Zoo Crew Equine and Pet Photography http://www.zoocrewphoto.com |

Karen ... are you really saying the lateral move from a cage in a kill shelter to a cage in a no-kill shelter is better? REALLY ... what a concept! It's so simple! |

It is not a done deal. The money is adding up, and sooner or later they will have to stop. They aren't going to want to admit failure, so unless they find a good home soon, they will probably just put him in a shelter, and then euthanasia could be a possibilty again. We can't say that that the goal was achieved until it is done. It hasn't happened yet, so we can't know for sure what will happen. I am really worried that they will get frustrated and just dump him rather than admit failure. -- Meghan & the Zoo Crew Equine and Pet Photography http://www.zoocrewphoto.com |

I'd rather see him in a no kill shelter where he could be seen and then totally neutral people would be vetting prospective adopters. I definitely agree with that. Cut out the newspaper ads and just get into a shelter where his life isn't in danger, and he will be seen by potential adopters. He's not going to entice somebody to adopt him unless he can grab their heart in person. And the longer it takes, the harder it will be. -- Meghan & the Zoo Crew Equine and Pet Photography http://www.zoocrewphoto.com |
