Have to give up 1 cat : (
I have brothers, Moe & Rudy, they've never been seperated
I got them at the SPCA.....Housing Mang doesn't like you have pets, but I did the right w/the American Disabilities Act even has 2 doctor's sign Now Mang tells since my husband, Rick's died I can only have one of them! Rudy puts a paw on each shoulder and licks my face when I'm crying over Rick's death Moe lets hug as as I want when I'm crying I can't pick just one! I guess the right thing will be to give them both up together, they are good with kids school age, they have never bitten or starched anyone I can't give up my babies. ensoul |

Get a different apartment. If you were told you had to give up your human babies (If you had them) would you give them up or find someplace where you could keep them ?!?!? |

MaryL Alternatively...you might check to see if the manager would accept a pet deposit so you can keep both cats. If you are a good tenant (especially a long-term tenant), that might be acceptable. Good tenants are like money in the bank to a manager. I know you said in another message that money is a major factor right now, but it would be cheaper than moving! I don't know where I came up with that bit about diabetes. I must have dreamed it because I don't see that reference in your message.

ensoul wrote: Now Mang tells since my husband, Rick's died I can only have one of them! WHOA! You have both cats, there is no suggestion that either cat is in danger of neglect ok? I've just had this over the last few days with my DH being in hospital.....And them trying to say that he couldn't take care of them (I don't count by the way as we are not married despite 28 years together) Get some advice- and sue/shoot the heartless bas**rds who want to do this at a time of such grief to you!!!!!!! Sometimes human beings aren't worthy of the name.... I'm hoping you can sort this out- when we had workmen round it came to their attention via an underling that we had cats, the underling did not get off to a good start when he asked Dave (DH) for the contact details of his social worker and when Dave said he didn't have one got the reply "But you're disabaled you must have one!" Dave promptly contacted HIS boss whose only reaction to the cats was "Ahhhhh...isn't she pretty? Come here you cutie" (I am still quite glad that it was Dunzi, if they'd seen Sarsi in one of her queen bitch modes it migth have been different!) Go above this moron's head of you have to.....They're saying you are able to look after 1 cat why not 2? Keep us posted Lesley |

Yes, and write to the local paper telling them your story and asking for
support from others. Gail "Charlie Wilkes" wrote in message ...

From previous post I gather she lives in HUD subsidized housing it's just
not that easy to pick up and move when you are disabled and getting by on very little. I know I've been there. I don't get why they will let her only keep one of them if she was allowed to have both when her husband was alive.
