I was furious when I read this on another forum I frequent and moderate..
The woman is pregnant and has had problems with her female cat urinating on things inappopriately. I advised her to take said cat to the vet to rule out UTI.
She did and then posts this a.m that she has given both of her cats away as they started becoming aggressive towards her..She said the vet said they were completely healthy but that she should re-home them as female cats often become aggressive over a pregnancy and "9 times out of 10 will attack the baby"...I thought this was sooooooo reckless, unethical and a load of BS to give this woman...
I told her that while I was glad her cats found new loving homes, that her vet was giving her a load of BS and that this is unfounded and unwarranted advice.
After I replied, I then thought that maybe she was lying about taking them to the vet as she just wanted to be rid of them...and wanted an excuse..I don't know for sure..
But in her last line, it states that she got a new bunny to keep her company on the same day she gave away her cats...
It just made me fuming mad! Has anyone else ever heard this from anywhere? Or from a vet in particular??
