didn't read the saga, you sure have some strong opinions about it.


I did read it. I said so. You must have missed that post in all your
humping.


You initially said you didn't. You're correct; I don't eagerly read
every post here and may have missed you saying later that you had. I
have no idea what you mean by "humping," either.

Is this what your moderated list/group will be like? Just curious.


Not unless you're there, sweetie.


You know, I've been polite to you and carefully avoided getting
personal. (The "nice" was directed at the action of the guy who dropped
his cat off at a kill shelter). The fact that you now feel a need to
hurl the sarcastic insults puts you in a class similar to all the people
you're so upset with for their comments about Philip. I'm sorry to see
that.


Very classy response, Diane. Unfortunately she got even crasser with me
(accusing my of felony animal abuse - of burning my own cat right after I
went through 7 different hells, taking two weeks off work to care for, 24/7,
my precious fur-baby who was injured during a routine dental cleaning - and
then calling me a half-rotted dildo) and I was angry enough to flame her @$$
back. I'm sorry now that I did - it's never fun to lower yourself to that
level and wallow in the dirt with them (but I hope you can, in a small way,
understand the frustration with this type of idiocy that caused it).

Hugs,

CatNipped

No!, You convicted Charlie without a trail, you never even heard his
side of it, and you said you would not adopt to him.

I was personally SHOCKED at the great care he gave the rooster.

Oh please! Philip dumped the cat because the cat had a cold and he
didn't want to pay the vet bill. I don't think he ever really wanted
Conan to begin with. He came on here posting about how he wanted a
Bengal cat, but I think because some people were encouraging him to
adopt, he thought he make himself out to be some sort of hero. Now if
you really care, STFU


This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard

"I don't think he ever wanted a cat"

I say oh really?

I guess I take some offense to the last sentence. I was part of the
"rescue club" and spent quite a bit of time on it. I did not do that to
vilify Philip, although I've made it clear I did not agree with his
decision. I wanted Conan out of there, he had too much bad luck for one
little cat.

Philip's attitude after taking Conan back showed no signs of compassion.
That topic is a dead horse for sure, but Conan needed help.

and the "rescue club"'s need to vilify him.

No, he's not. I decided to help in my limited capacity because it's a cat

I
knew, in a way. I know that might sound lame, but there it is. It was in
no way to vilify Philip. I and others on here tried to help Philip

through
nursing Conan back, encourage him that Conan will get over it, it is just

a
URI. He did not post about the vet giving him such a dire prediction and
high cost estimate until after he returned Conan. He also stated that the
shelter was a high-kill facility. From what we know now about the

shelter,
it doesn't sound that high kill.
What did I get in return for trying to help Philip? I got called a stupid
woman and other insults. I never once insulted his age, although I think

he
did **** me off enough to say **** off or something like that. Oh, I

called
him Archie Bunker for making racist comments in the police/drug dealer
thread, that was before Conan.
I'm glad that Conan was rescued, and I'm still doing what I can here to

help
the local cats. I had no ego involved in trying to help Conan. I

committed
the sin of wanting to know more about Charlie before we went to such
extrodinary lengths to get the cat to him. Forgive me for wanting to

screen
a potential home, but that's all water under the bridge now.


I am grateful to every element that helped get this cat into safe hands. I
thank both you and Cheryl, though I do not question your motives. I do
question hers. But that is all water under the bridge now too.

That's a big 'ol raspberry in your general direction. My feelings
were the same as Kelly's. You just said that because you hate me.
Your emotional outburst is noted.

I do not hate you. I hate only Philip. I do, however, question your
motives. Just as I said. *looking for a handkerchief to wipe off
your spit cooties*

I've come in on the tail end Helen


A dude named Philip adopted a cat, and after a bad Lemony Snicket's
episode he took the cat back.

Meanwhile, since this is the pussy club, everyone flamed Philip, I mean
blamed Philip.

They hated Philip so much that it inspired them to rescue the cat.

No-one stepped forward to adopt the cat except for Charlie.

This made everyone happy. Cheryl brought up the idea, "Do we really
know Charlie"... This idea quickly spread throughout the pussy club.
Then a couple of dicks, went and dug up google stuff. (A real
challenge, very reliable, always in context)

They went backwards on Charlie, looked a gift horse in the mouth, and
called each other *******s.

Really, just a typical day in the pussy club.


ROFLMAO !! At this rate, this whole soap opera will be nothing more than a
footnote. Fine by me.

He's a cute little guy and I'm glad he's safe, but I've no idea why

shelters. It seems people here have formed an attachment to him but I

still
don't know why.

Phillip. That's why. They are so much in hatred of Phillip they want
to be "Conan's Savior". Because you see, what Phillip did - returning
a cat to a shelter when he clearly couldn't handle the cat - an action
that the shelter recommends, in fact - is so "EVIL!" That's the only
reason. If they really cared, they'd put as much time, effort and
money into their local shelters, every week of every year. Like many
others on the group do.


It is so neat. Nobody needs to do anything to *make* you look bad.
All anyone has to do is sit back and watch you do it yourself. I wish
everything were this easy. *~sigh~*

A classic example of self destruction is yourself ... day in ... day out.
Mary is her own worst enemy.
