Just a rant about stupid people.

I live in a smalll town , we have a weekly paper that comes out on Thursday in the wanted Ads: " Wanted For FREE outdoor only cat to chase squirrels" OH My @@#### some people. I stewed on that ad half the day and I just had to call the number and have my say.Fisrst off I polietly asked if they wanted a male or female and did it make any difference if it had been fixed or not. They said it didn't matter long as though it was free and didn't have to come into the house. !!! I inquired about feeding it. Now here is the kicker . Quote " if we feed the cat it won'tbe hungry and then it won't kill off the squirrels...I was steaming by them. I then asked and if its a female and has kittens? They said they can stay out with the mom also. We have a dog house they can live in... I was so mad by then I simply hung up! CLICK more like BANG!
I got on the phone and called the local Human Society and told them what was going on they read the ad and said that they would have some one go in person to the peoples house and talk with them. Phewww. How can people be so darn stupid and uncaring..

Brains in their pants!!!!. When God made them thats where he put theirs. The idiots!!.

Good for you for reporting them as well

I'm so glad that you reported them, good for you!

I can't believe people like that - it just breaks my heart to think if someone actually were to take them a cat

I can't believe that the paper actually printed that!

OH.MY.GRRRRR! That is just stupid! Plain stupid! Good for you for reporting them!

I really hope those people don't get a cat. That's infuriating!

People are just so ignorant!!!

Boy, some people are so ignorant! I'm glad you reported them too! I can't stand people like that!

Oh Cindy, I'm so glad you called on these people. They certainly need some education on the treatment of animals. I hope they get it!

I can't believe the newpaper even printed that ad - extremely unprofessional!

*^#$&*%!!!!
Some people think animals are objects.
psh.. if we feed it it won't be hungry...
Thank god the Humane Society was willing to get involved. Maybe they'll say something that gets through.

Good for you for calling.

You know though, I worked with someone who use to be with one of the bigger local papers. She said that there was a staff that would proofread some of the classifieds for drug deals. I hope it was more an ignorant person then a drug dealer!!!!
(PS, the way the conversation started was that we saw a classified in the paper: "Shoes - $5". Yup that's all it said. )

you took the words right out of my mouth! that is unbelievable!

as for the twit that wants the cat....that is disgusting and my blood is boiling right now...how can people think like that???? I'm so glad it was reported.

After reading your comments about the paper printing that ad. I just had to give them a call and inquire about why on earth they printed it. They said that they legally have to print ads that are paid for longs as though the ad does not involve anything illegal! I said animal abuse isn't Illegal? They just hemed and hawed and couldn't really give me a good answere. At least I let them know what I thought. Plus I had two friends also call the paper! So maybe this will make them think before they ever print something like this again.
The Human society here in town is wonderfull.Very involved and caring. Its mainly volunteers.

Those people are disgusting!

In the small town where my husband, Kyle is from, people normally don't have to put an add in, there are sooooooo many cats just breeding in the country.

Kyle's parents live on a little farm outside of the town and their closest neighbor's have about 40 to 80 cats at any given time on their farm. They took one in and got her fixed, but they don't know what to do with the rest.

People just come and dump cats/kittens at their drive because people know around there that the kittens/cats will be dealt with, one way or another....

I was absolutely horrified when I found out what they do to keep the numbers down....old George takes out his gun and shoots them all. Last I heard, he said he shot about 40 cats.

There is no shelter in this small town and no one is willing to become responsible for them. If I lived there I would be doing something about it but since I don't all I can do is rant about it!

That's terrible. Good for you for being proactive!

i didnt think that cats ate squirrels anyway

Some people use their butts to hold their brains. They can't help it. their heads are full of hot air!
Stupid idiots! I hate small towns( she says as she lives in one!)

They will kill them Fwan when my cats used to go outside they managed to catch one or two and chipmunks. They didn't eat them .But if a cat isn't being fed they sure would eat them just like they would mice or birds.

That is terrible!! Im glad you reported the idiots, and hopefully they wont find a cat(someone dumb enough to give 'em one)
