They've had this cat 13 years and can't take it? Not to mention they THINK it is sick and haven't taken it to the vet? :censor::censor::censor: is WRONG with these people!

I can't look at the pet section on Craigslist anymore, it makes me too sad.

I don't know why I do. I have no way to help any of them and it just makes me sad and angry.

Try to go to Fur Pictures instead when you get the urge to go to Craigslist.

That is one thing we could never do is move without our cats. Our cats are part of the family. They automatically would come with us anywhere we would move. Its not even an option to be without our cats - we love them so much! Its so sad seeing people who just give away their cats when they move. We would turn down any job if it meant we had to move & give up our cats. No way, no how! Just couldn't do it...People would take their kids along when they move - so why not their cats?

Their 'deadline' is tomorrow. I wish it was in Columbus, I would go pick her up and take her to the vet myself, and then properly adopt her out else take her to the no-kill no-cage.

I just wonder what the circumstances are for them moving without their cats. That just seems odd, I wonder if there isnt a story not being told.

I think what they mean is this:

Unfortunately I think you are right


I wish I could help, but the rescue I volunteer with has said absolutely no more cats for the time being. We are overflowing and don't have enough homes to go around for the ones we already have.

if you can't take the cat with you, then don't freaking go.
or go somewhere else. and if ya'lls translation is right, he's still a b**t**d. i apologize if the language offends you.

Omg there's a beagle who pads are injured and the advertiser says they can only think of one thing that could do that, dragging the dog behind a truck.

I've never looked at craiglist before, it's so sad

Don't apologize -- that's a kind word for this person.
