Wish me luck. I am meeting with a different rescue this weekend. If I am accepted by them as a volunteer and they agree to help me place the foster cats I have paid for, then it is bye-bye to Metro.
I know I am going to get stiffed on the money I have paid out to date; I have to accept that. But I cannot and will not work with something who thinks it's ok to shaft me, talk down to me, insult me, treat my calls and queries about sick cats, etc,, as an annoyance and then not answer me when I want to talk about things. I have had it. This is not how you handle a dependable, devoted, hard working, caring volunteer who has given you lots of her time ... and quite a bit of money... over the last five years.
And once all the cats have been rehomed, I will never, never, never, EVER foster again. I feel like my good intentions were totally co-opted by the stinky people involved. I am not sorry I saved these animals. They are wonderful creatures... I cannot say the same about the humans who were supposed to help me.
