If you think my pain at giving these kittens over to be euthanased is a
joke, then f*ck off.

Fact is that the kittens didn't even belong to the SPCA- and no it's NOT the
ASPCA, it's the RSPCA. I don't live in the States. We were fostering them
for a family who wasn't able to care for them because of their jobs. He
couldn't pay for the antibiotics because things are a bit more expensive
over here than the "everything costs $1" USA.


You are in Australia. This is your RSPCA. It says here they will tend to
injured or ill animals. http://www.rspca.org.au/ It says they teach people how
to properly care for animals. It costs $1 each to euthanize, more to dispose of
the body, antibiotics would be cheaper. Maybe there was more wrong with the
cats. If your RSPCA did euthanize cats that only needed basic normal care, you
should tell them that is wrong. I am emailing them right now and telling them
that what they did was wrong, if it happened. FYI I buy my antibiotics through
the mail. I even buy stuff from Canada where it's cheaper than the US.

NNTR, I'm unsubbing to usenet where there aren't as many stupid people who
want to save all the cutsie animals. I live in a world where nothing's
fair. This wasn't fair. I'm going to deal with it. I'm sorry that you
can't.


I agree with you 100 percent. Americans are too pampered and
judgmental. They have no perspective on the reality of the world.

I have seen some of the worst examples in this group.
