Caring about wild cats
Suddenly, without warning, Mark Earnest exclaimed (11/5/2009 5:20 PM):

Suddenly, without warning, Mark Earnest exclaimed (11/4/2009 1:27 AM): "Kelly Greene" wrote in message ... You're allowing them to reproduce with no mention of how you plan to find homes for the kittens. Kittens are no problem! Kittens are so cute, they practically take care of themselves. My vagrant female cat just had a litter of four. As soon as they were old enough, all but one of them left, never to be heard from again. They were picked up. They were adopted. Or they would have come back to the plentiful food I provide. ::headdesk:: ::headdesk:: ::headdesk:: Ohmyfriggingawd. NOBODY is that naive! Mark - most likely those kittens DIED. They were not adopted. If they were picked up, it was by animal control or a random dog. They could have died of disease or hunger, hit by cars, attacked by dogs, attacked by kids. There are a lot more ways those kittens would have died, than that they would have a happy ending. That is the assumption people make, that things that happen away from total view happen in such a way as to support their point of view. And how is that not exactly what you're doing? I've been patient, but either you're a troll or an idiot. And those who hang out here know I don't often actually call people that. Kelly, give it up, it's a lost cause. Don't tell Kelly to give it up, tell me to. Ok, then, please give it up. Pretty clear she's not going to change your mind, and you are not going to change her's (or mine). We can agree to disagree. FWIW, you lost a lot of points with me when you refused Phil P.'s offer of assistance. If you truly cared about your colony (if it even exists), you would have taken Phil's assistance. Those of us who have been here for a while know Phil and his work with ferals well. Would you give your address out over the Internet to someone you just met? It's amazing that you expect me to know everything. Actually, if you wanted to you could have worked something out - given the addy of a local shelter, for example. It would get stolen there. And, yes I have. When I was posted overseas and needed parts for my truck, someone on the truck's forum offered to send me the parts. We were both very careful in the beginning (the part I needed was worth less than $10), but had a good working relationship for years, he sending me parts when I needed them, I'd send a little touristy gift with my check. It was a very useful relationship, actually. Not everyone here is deviant and a predator. You've got to realize that those of this group almost without exception have a less than favorable opinion of me. Any one of which would love to post my personal home address up for all to see. And I thought I was paranoid. This is Usenet. Most people could care a rat's ass about you personally, and wouldn't bother posting stuff - the people who do that sort of crap are few and far between. And it's not like I suggested posting your address *here*. You ignored that I suggested working through a shelter - not your personal home address. I understand your caution, but... whatever. jmc |

And it's not like I suggested posting your address *here*. You ignored that I suggested working through a shelter - not your personal home address. I understand your caution, but... whatever. Of course I'm paranoid. Look at how practically every person on this group attacked me. Wouldn't you be? But as a wise person once told me, "Just because your paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you." |

Marry me, Phil. Oh no, wait, I am already married. I'm sure he would be glad to be set free of you, even though he's been neutered; maybe he could grow them back. |
