I got it someplace else, I did not write it, wish I did though.And I missed it the first time around. Dear Rescuer,
Please help!!!! After two long years of being on a waiting list for an
American Bobtail, we have been notified by the breeder that, at long
last, our number has come up and ...WE ARE HAVING A KITTEN!!!
Unfortunately, we must get rid of our children IMMEDIATELY because we
know just how time consuming our new little kitten is going to be and
it just wouldn't be fair to the children. Since our little kitten will
be arriving on Monday we MUST place the children into rescue this
weekend!
They are described as:
One male - His name is Tommy, Caucasian (English/Irish mix), light
blonde hair, blue eyes. Four years old. Excellent disposition. He
doesn't bite. Temperament tested. Does have problems with peeing
directly in the toilet. Has had chicken Pox and is current on all
shots. Tonsils have already been removed. Tommy eats everything, is
very clean, house trained & gets along well with others. Does not run
with scissors and with a little training he should be able to read
soon.
One female - Her name is Lexie, Caucasian (English/Irish mix),
strawberry blonde hair, green eyes quite freckled. Two years old. Can
be surly at times. Non-biter, thumb sucker. Has been temperament tested
but needs a little attitude adjusting occasionally. She is current on
all shots, tonsils out, and is very healthy & can be affectionate. Gets
along well with other little girls & little boys but does not like to
share her toys and therefore would do best in a one child household.
She is a very quick learner and is currently working on her house
training-shouldn't take long at all.
We really do LOVE our children so much and want to do what's right for
them; that is why we contacted a rescue group. But we simply can no
longer keep them. Also, we are afraid that they may hurt our new
kitten.
And would you believe, that on top of that, my husband has developed a
severe allergy to the children. His eyes begin to water and itch as
soon as he comes into the house. His asthma has been out of control
ever since our second child came along.
Oh, I forgot to mention, Bob, (my husband), also recently received a
transfer and we are going to be moving to a new community in Florida
that does not allow children, so there is NO way we could take them
along. We're really sorry, but we have no other options.
I hope you understand that ours is a UNIQUE situation and we have a
real emergency here!!! They MUST be placed into your rescue by Sunday
night at the latest or we will be forced to drop them off at the
orphanage or along some dark, country road. Our priority now has to be
our new kitten.
Bob & Alice

Kind of reminds me of the welcome mat at my boyfriend's mother's home... "Pets welcome, children must be on a leash."
