I really don't know how to start this ..but here goes...
My son and his wife got a kitten a few weeks ago. They have a 2 year old daughter and 1 year old shepard mix.
I knew it was a bad idea to begin with, My grandaughter is very active and I think she is to young.
My daughter-in-law has told me several times about my son hitting the dog. I told her that I understand he is under alot of stress, but he should not hit the dog. They should find another home for her.
Well, I guess my grandaughter was playing with the kitten(unsupervised)
and she started screaming...I guess kitty was on top of her..only 8 weeks old...my son ran in the room and threw the kitten. He said he thought it would just land on its feet but it slid on there hardwood floor , right into the entertainment center and was knocked out. It was bleeding from the mouth and nose. He rushed it to a emergency clinic and they wanted funds upfront. he did not have the money at 12:30 in the morning. he stayed up with the kitten all night. It was eating and drinking..but sleeping an awful lot. The next morning he took it to the vet and the vet said he was ok. Thank God!
here is my problem.. I really think that they need to get rid of these animals right now. They do not have the patience, or time for them right now. She is working full time and in school and my son works 60 hours a week. They are under alot of stress and these poor animals suffer for it. I am going to have a talk with my daughter-in-law today about getting new homes for them. I just don't want to start World War 3 in the family.
Any suggestions? I am apalled by my sons actions..makes me sick to my
stomach.
