The people on craigslist irritate me. I occasionally look on there to see if anything catches my eye (its how I got a deal on one of my two cat trees after all), and just now I looked only to find a whole bunch of people harassing someone about wanting a pregnant cat.
The original poster was looking for a pregnant cat so that they could raise the kittens and then have pick of the litter. The person said they were going to get them all spayed/neutered at Pawmetto Lifeline (a local shelter place that offers free spay/neuter quite often and very cheap pain meds to go with those surgeries). The person also said they would prefer if the momma cat was okay with other cats, dogs and children.
Following that was several responses saying that the only reason anyone would be looking for a pregnant cat is if they were a snake owner and they wanted easy food for their snakes.
Being a snake owner (though my snake isn't large enough to eat anything other than a baby mouse) and a cat owner I found this so appalling that people can be like this.
I hate how people take something kind and twist it into what they want.
