Adopt This Great Cat!
We have a gorgeous young male red tabby, neutered and vetted here. He has
been at the shelter a bit too long for comfort and will be "re-evaluated" this Wednesday, June 29th. The shelter does euthanize cats. We will not only pay his adoption fee but will find a way to get him to you--if you can convince us that you can provide a good home to him. He is in Orange County, California. It does not matter where you are. Tell us why you would provide the best home for Conan! |

It does not matter where you are. Tell us why you would provide the best home for Conan! Thank you for stepping back and rethinking this. It shows you really do care. Yes, Mary, I know you do care. Regardless of your opinion of me and why I brought up concerns, and regardless of whether I've stated *yet* whether I'd help financially, I see no reason to think that Conan can't be adopted locally. He's gorgeous, seems to have a good disposition from what Philip said (take that as you will; I'm sure you will) and he's young. And, he's apparently over his URI and is now healthy. He should have no problem getting noticed and getting adopted. I like the idea someone had to put up a sign on his cage that distinctly describes his personality. Maybe someone local can type/write one up and hang it on his cage. When I volunteered with our local SPCA, the cats with very detailed descriptive signs on their cage (and on Petfinders.org) recieved a lot of interest. In a large shelter such as OC, there probably isn't a lot of personal interest paid to individual animals. It would help if someone local could do that so that any potential adopters could have some information about him. -- Cheryl "The clever cat eats cheese and breathes down rat holes with baited breath." - W.C.

Someone I know has contacted me about a possible home in the Seattle area for Conan. So, if everything works out, which I should know by sometime tomorrow, then the same transportation arrangements can be utilized. They are awaiting approval from their landlord. -- -Kelly |

Is that really what you get out of this ng, sex? You're always making ludicrous sexual remarks on here when other people are trying to have serious discussions. And you keep changing the fricking titles of the threads so it's next to impossible to follow what's going on. Is your purpose her to "get off" or to disrupt? There are porn sites available where you can fantasize about sexy little attitudes. Conan is running out of time and some of us care about that more than about you getting your rocks off. Candace |

Kelly, we will have to know all about this person. They will have to come on here and answer questions about their past with animals and give us an email and/or their full name so that we can Google them and make sure they are suitable. I am not comfortable adopting Conan out to someone we know nothing about. If this person must remain anonymous, it is no go. And I want to know how big this apartment is--Conan is a BIG athletic boy--if there are any other pets, what kind, what sort of income this person has, essentially all the concerns raised about Charlie, who is, after all, approved by the shelter. |

I will post info as I have it. What I know now is this is a couple, just transferred to the Seattle area, has one cat, was going to adopt another a while back but the wife became ill and they had to put off adopting another cat and are now ready to do so. I do not have their email or full names at this point. -- -Kelly |

Candace Then tell the women to act like they got some sense about them Just for the record, would you like to see the emails I get from women on this group?...gasp, you would be shocked! Charlie is fine! Ok, find someone else (I read your comments)... Your not the problem. Seems that 2, that's two women, are wanting to put on a rubber glove to examine the new cat owner, when they already know Charlie. I changed the title, to take attention away from those, slinging mud at Charlie, it was supposed to be confusing, and it seems to have worked. BTW: Does fancy feast come in small cans only? My fat ass cat can't get enough! |
