I get so aggravated with this... my BIL told me tonight that his boss is thinking of getting rid of his senior cat because she's peeing all over the place. I told him that 99% of the time a cat does this it's due to a UTI, kidney or other health problems and told his to tell his boss to take the cat to the vet! Then I find out that the cat is banished to the basement all the time anyway ever since this guy and his wife got two dogs.
I told him to at least tell his boss to find the cat a new home, because if he sends her to a shelter at her age, she'll be PTS.
My mom used to talk about getting a cat from a shelter to keep the mice out of her garage. I told her that in order to adopt a cat, they'll make her sign a contract that the cat will be kept indoors (well, I had to sign one for Holland, anyway...). Thankfully, I think she's given up on that idea.
And my little brother's girlfriend, after she adopted her yappy little dog last summer, sent her two cats to a shelter.
I don't get it. Just needed to rant...
