VERY cross today.Today I had a phonecall from a woman who has 3 kittens she wants to find homes for. I explained we are a boarding kennel and Cattery only, and offered her the number for the local Cat rescue and the CPL, but no, she wanted money! The mother is a Siamese cat, she said, they are expensive! The father? well she doesnt know because the stupid c*w just let the damn female out in the hopes it would get pregnant! and why did she do this? well apart from the "money" thing, her 15yr old daughter wanted the Cat to have kittens!!!  Since when did a 15yr old child become responsible for the type of decision that has ended in this situation? I really cannot believe it. It defies belief that an ADULT would even dream of letting a child make such decisions.We had a long talk, and finally, I think I got her to understand just what a stupid thing she has done. The mother Cat will now be spayed (got from a friend for free when she moved out of the country) and I have managed to talk her into letting rescue have the kittens to find them homes. I have a friend that is going to see them tomorrow, and will take them to rescue and keep them untill they can have them if nec. She told me the female kitten is a bit "spiteful" like its mother!!!!!! and the "kids" dont play with that one much, so I think the sooner they are out of there the better. A quick few quid on the basis of what a child wanted, really cant get my head around it. I'm fuming!

Oh man. What the... I'm so sorry for those kittens  I can't imagine breeding pets without keeping a close eye on (at the very least) the overall health and temperament of both parents. |

Stupid, ignorant and selfish. It makes me angry too; I have to really reign in my opinions when trying to talk to people about neutering - especially when they put up ridiculous arguments such as the one above. However, more is usually achieved by rational explanation - doesn't stop me being angry inside tho. Well done that you managed to talk her round Dawn. Let's see what happens! |

 Have you seen a lot of the current 'It's me or the dog'? Seems to be daft mothers allowing their 14/15 year old daughters to have (and ruin) small dogs as 'it's better than them having a baby'  Ye Gods. And we marched and ranted for 'wimmins lib' and they treat it like this |
