Someone at work just emailed saying their kitty needs a new home because they have really bad allergies and they just can't keep the kitty any more.
Then they go on to say the kitty is a 9 year old who she rescued from feral life as a 4 week old kitten!!!! What the????!!?!?!
After having a cat for 9 years and probably getting VERY attached, how can you suddenly decide you have bad allergies and can't keep it?!?!
I wrote her back a long email asking just that, and saying the odds of someone wanting to adopt a 9 year old cat who doesn't like other animals are pretty low, and if she takes it to a shelter, odds are it'll either be euthanised or sit there for months on end, even if she is a sweet kitty.
I gave her a whole bunch if anti-allergy alternatives and I REALLY hope she reconsiders giving up her baby
