That must be very tough for you. It's bad enough when it's a stranger, worse when it's your daughter. <hug> Keep up the good work and feel free to rave and curse here.

it must seem to others that im being harse but i know my daughter and the kitten (if it survives being a play thing for my grandson) will be a 5 minute wonder, and when she realises she cant clear off for week long trips away.the novelty will wear off, she said to me if it dont work she will re-home it, then joked n said my grandson. she is just one of the most irrisponasble ppl i know.

Good luck Cathy - hope you come out on top here.
Could you play the 'guilt' card? "Don't do it - I will be stressed, Charlie will be stressed and one of us will be ill. You don't want to see us in hospital because of this do you?"
