Purrayers needed for little Delta please!
Little Delta needs your purrayers please... she went to what was
supposed to be her forever home the other day, and John just had to go and pick her up from the vet tonight - somebody who was supposed to love her didn't She's going to be living with John now (along with the three foster cats he collected just before the other five left)... but what I don't understand is how can people be so incredibly horrible to such a small helpless loving creature? I didn't even have to SEE her to love her - whenever I'm on the phone with John she's snuggled up close to him mewing occasionally just so we don't forget her. It must be an incredibly comical sight because she's so tiny and he's such a big guy that he must seem like a MOUNTAIN to her I just hope he'll be able to persuade her that it's still okay to love and trust people after what happened to her... Anyway, purr for her please... she needs a lot of love -- Karen AKA Kajikit Here kitty kitty kitty... visit http://www.catslaves.org!

Anyway, purr for her please... she needs a lot of love -- Karen AKA Kajikit I hope this means that John has adopted her and that this is not a temporary move. If it is, I am sure Delta will soon adjust. My Duffy (who is blind but gets around wonderfully well) was returned to the shelter after two years. Like you, I simply can't understand it because he is an incredibly loving, sweet-natured cat. I sometimes think about how terrible it must have been for him to have been abandoned like that and left to live at the shelter for several months before I adopted him. However, the day he came into my life was truly a lucky day for me -- and I believe it also was for him because no one could love him more. The same will be true for Delta and John. Just give her lots of love, and she will soon know this time it really is her forever home.

How sad, Karen -- major purrs for the little baby to recover quickly under
John's care. Hugs for you, too. Christine "Kajikit" wrote in message ...

Purrs for poor little Delta
I don't understand the mentality of people who do that. Why would they adopt a cat then not want it anymore? Aren't those beautiful adorable eyes looking up at you enough?

"Nanny" wrote in message ... Maybe the same thing that happened to me long ago ? We'd been adopted by a really sweet cat, but didn't want a 5th cat at that moment. A (female) coworker of my then husband wanted to take her in, and when we got there she and the cat bonded immediately, the cat was on her lap, purring, almost before we sat down. We asked her how her boyfriend would react, and she said he'd love it, he was always so loving with her parents cats. Well, at the end of the evening, she was on the phone in tears, totally upset, and her boyfriend shouting in the background, he was so angry that we thought he'd kill the cat, so we went there again to pick her up, ignoring all traffic rules. My husband went in on his own, the boyfriend was still angry, saying things like he couldn't understand how crazy people could be having 4 cats, which was directed at us. Fortunately he hadn't hurt the cat, so she came home with us again, and got a loving home a week later with people that had lost a cat that looked exactly like her. -- Nanny I hope your friend dumped her boyfriend. He sounds like he could be violent -- and someone who can be violent toward cats can also be violent toward people. MaryL |

He sounds like he could be violent -- and someone who can be violent toward cats can also be violent toward people. MaryL My long-gone-ex-husband brought home a tiny mutt puppy. I never wanted a dog but I fell in love with it. Well, when he discovered the puppy would poop on the floor he went ballistic. Literally threw the tiny dog down on an enclosure on the cement balcony. Then he came running to me, "I think there's something wrong with the dog!" My god, it could barely breathe. I (we, yeah, right) rushed it to the vet; in my haste I left without my glasses and couldn't even see to drive. When we got to the vet, we were asked, "Was this dog hit by a car? It's got contusions and internal bleeding like it was hit." My (THANKFULLY) ex-husband said yes. I said NO. You THREW HIM. YOU DID THIS. He was appropriately ashamed and offered no comment. I made sure the vet was going to take care of the pup. You are absolutely correct in that someone who would get so upset about a cat or a dog can become violent towards women. I wasn't married 2 years before I left the *******, and took the dog with me, too. He never hit me, but he shoved me and knocked over furniture. What on earth causes someone to have that much rage in them? I have no idea. 20 years later, my fiance, Ray, is a dog person. But even Persia has managed to charm him All he asks is that Persia not attack what she thinks is a 'snake' under the covers when he's about to wake up in the mornings. ROFL! Jill |

I won't try to express my feelings towards those who would abuse any animal - but am thinking some pretty ugly thoughts. |
