"Getting rid" of a cat......
I need to vent about this & I knew other cat lovers would understand....
My Father In Law has a new girlfriend & she had a gorgeous little tuxedo named Patches that is 4 yrs old.... My Father in law is a cheap, manipulative, cat hating *******! He told his Girlfriend to "Get rid" of her cat & DUMPS him on me! It took me 3 days to find the little guy a home & he truly was delightful the whole time!!! My 9 yr. old Siamese even liked him!!!! ) WHY would a woman choose a man over her companion of 4 years?!?!?!? When me & my hubby first started going out...I told my hubby Me & Bastet (My kitty) were a package deal & he said he wouldn't have it any other way! I'm sorry...I just had to get this off my chest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vincent 6/27/01 Dorothy 6/4/03 Quitters never win, and winners never quit, but those who never quit AND never win are idiots. |

Some women are so insecure they will do anything to have a "man". I feel sorry for her. I give the relationship 6 months to a year, then she'll be wishing she still had her cat. Jill |

Jill I totally agree with you Jill! Some women don't have enough self-esteem to say no. I can see nothing but problems with this relationship. At least the kitty was left with KatGrrrl and not dumped at an SPCA or worse--just dumped somewhere. Junebug |

My Father in law is a cheap, manipulative, cat hating *******! He told his
Girlfriend to "Get rid" of her cat & DUMPS him on me! What's really sad is that relationships that start out like that are either bad or end quickly. Then she doesn't have her loving little kitty anymore to help her through the sad time. I wouldn't give up my cat for a guy because that guy obviously wouldn't be for me and I'd miss cats terribly. A guy who everyone said was a "total ten" asked to marry me but he said I had to get rid of my cat Boots. I said no way! then along came a much nicer guy who was better suited to me. The relationship with the "ten" would not have lasted. I saved myself a lot of heartbreak and my great kitty, Boots. |

The bad thing was...He was going to KILL him with a mallet & If I hadn't taken
time off work to come & get him-It wouldn't have had a happy ending!!!! I don't understand a woman who would let a guy do that....I really don't!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vincent 6/27/01 Dorothy 6/4/03 Quitters never win, and winners never quit, but those who never quit AND never win are idiots. |

I don't understand a woman who would let a guy do that....I really don't!! I don't think it's a matter of "letting" him.. if someone has plans to do something like that, it would be pretty hard to stop him. I mean, she has to go to work, right? Or to sleep? She can't watch over the cat 24/7. What I can't understand is, how she could even stand to be in the same room with, let alone marry, someone who threatened to kill her cat. Wow, I think the other posters who talked about low self-esteem had it right. She must be feeling pretty desperate to be willing to put up with this creep. And you know what psychologists say about people who are cruel to animals... humans are next. I hope you don't find *her* at your door someday, looking for refuge. Hopefully she'll dump him before it comes to that! Joyce |

Not only was he willing to commit a real atrocity against the poor cat, but he very well could be a menace to this woman in the future. Wife/child abusers often start out as animal abusers.
