I see you are still in denial even after I quoted your posts time and time.
I can take it if someone's opinion differs from mine. What I can't take is when we all offered you great suggestions and you threw it back in some of our faces and decided against taking future precautions because it was in your words "too much trouble." I think what you are trying to do here is basically make me the bad guy now to take the heat off you. I guess you can't admit that you have real problem with people giving you advice. You still never answered my question again though which leads me to believe you are avoiding it. How many lives will it take before you take the necessary safety precautions? Also, why did you ask for people's advice or suggestions in the first post if you had no intention on listening to them? As for your post about saving the world, I can do my best to save my corner of it as well as help out cats that need it. I will keep helping cats no matter what you think. Now, lets see if you can possibly pass up this post so we can kill thread because the horse is ready to be buried. -- Panther TEK: Staying On Top Of All Your Computer Needs! www.members.cox.net/catprotector/panthertek Cat Galaxy: All Cats, All The Time! www.catgalaxymedia.com "Tlg064" wrote in message ... Will you get over it. I did not throw anything back in anyones face. Not every situation conforms to your dream land. You just cant take it when someone else does not see something exactly your way. Then you whine. You make it sound like your some kind of cat God and only you know whats right for them and only you know how to treat them right and as for the rest of us we dont have the brains to take care of a cat and we mistreat them. . You think your going to save the world or something. Maybe go down in history. Get real. Go F yourself. When I open my door to come in and my 4 cats race to the door to meet me I know I must be doing something right. Tom |

I made a single post, milder than many.
You've made a half-dozen, merrily flaming anyone you please, repeatedly in some cases. Why? Because they don't say exactly what you want them to say, while their are no restrictions on what you say, or what language you use. Rather than take responsibility for your pointless flaming post, you impotently try to attack yet again. You should have tired of that game long ago. You've made it clear you aren't worthwhile. Just immature and foolish. Go ahead, flex your fingers yet again, so predictable "Sherry". (Sherry ) wrote in message ... No I didn't miss it. You took a sentence out of context. The cat didn't die due to the extreme medical condition he mentioned. Its death was as a result of drowning. I asked about what the vet said and did about the condition the cat had before it died. And for what purpose do you need this information? To flame the poster some more? Sheesh. Sherry (k) wrote in message . com... Someone asked if the cat could jump. Yes, but not well. Enough to jump onto a chair or something but thats all. Sometimes it would take 2 tries. Her hind legs were getting weak and sometimes going down stairs she would tumble all the way down. Then what did the vet say? That is not at all normal for a cat of that age. Most of the suggestions for objects in the pool won't work. A cat is in a panic under those circumstances. It would have to be a very large, stable, object, which you are unlikely to provide, as you referred to some suggestion as "not too much trouble, not in the way too much". When/if it happened, the cat would have to "happen" onto the object. The pool should be fenced. For animals, for children. People who don't do so find themselves buried in lawsuits when the unimagined happens -- a drown kid. A fenced yard can definitely be deemed insufficient. Cats aren't known for their aquatic abilities. More likely to drown, than "swim". That's pretty basic. If I had a cat, and a pool, and saw it drinking from the pool, I would immediately worry about what would happen should the cat fall in. When you say things like "that's too much trouble" and "oh, well, the other cat will just have to take its chances" you shouldn't be so surprised when people lean on you a bit. They can easily picture the panic that cat felt in the situation that led to it's death. Then there's the calling people "morons", as well as the other pointless 4 letter words. Doesn't matter what the situation is, a normal well-balanced adult doesn't do that. You didn't use reasonable sense in advance of the incident, and you aren't willing to do anything about the situation, preferring to just let another animal drown if it happens. Rather than take responsibility you've gone out on a very juvenile limb trying to justify your position, and childishly struck out at others. So, what did the vet say about her condition, what tests did he run, what medication was prescribed? |

I'm not flaming, or "impotently" attacking anyone. I am simply defending someone who is grieving over what was an accident, from you people who choose to flame-roast her into oblivion. I still don't see the point of your question, since the cat is dead. Apparently you don't wish to share that. Sherry |

So I had to clarify that, no, this was actually new, that I had been there personally, and that the production crew had said it would air some time in the second season. Well, you'd figure that would settle the matter, no big deal, right? Oh no-o-o. Into a thread that was basically over stepped our hero Mr. Cat Protector, insisting that the pictures were from that previous episode. In other words, he was implying that I was a barefaced liar and that I had lifted copyrighted material from the show to boot. Shame on me, I lost it and gave him the whatfor. My indignant tirade had *no* effect whatsoever on our resident village idiot. For the obvious reason that nothing can have an effect on him. The second incident was when someone posted about her desire to adopt out her cat. That's a very drastic step to take, and posts like that generally don't go down too well in this group. But her circumstances were indeed exceptional, and though there was a lot of heat initially, just about everyone in the group quickly agreed that finding a new home for her cat was the best course of action. You can read the story he http://www.ect.org/dj/js-0.html Wow, what an incedible story. Thanks for posting it, though I'm sorry it had to be in this context. -L. |
