Ok ~ here is my opinion. Go and snatch the cat! They have booted him outside - don't care and are just bullies. They will never even wonder what happened to the poor little creature - trust me, these kind never do.
I say go get it!!!!!!!!!!!!! They already told you that you could have the cat, so that is a verbal contract in my book...so go take it!!!!!!! Sneak in, and take it! They obviously care so little that they will probably not even notice it is gone. just go get it, and if they holler, or phone the police, tell them that they SAID you could have the cat!!! (and you don't remember them changing their pathetic minds)
Please let us know how it goes...you go get 'em girl!!!
I agree, you should go get the cat. They won't know if he ran away or something happened to him. If you can't bring yourself to do that, you should definitely report them to whatever authority will take care of it. I am so sorry this happened. Some people are such scumbags!
Does the cat go into the parking lot at hubby's work? Because once he's off their property, since I'm sure he has no tags, there's no way to be sure exactly whose cat he is, is there? :goodbad: And surely nobody would fault your hubby for taking in a poor stray cat he found in a car park?
Thanks everyone!! I would soooooooo like to just take the cat, believe me I would....but unfortunately hubby has now finished the job there so will not be going back (he's a plumbing and heating engineer you see so he is only there until the job is done)....sigh...but I'm still going to report them!! (ha ha ha RSPCA are gonna kick some butt!! ha ha ha)
But you know, something REALLY cool happened last night after I was feeling SO depressed. On the way home from work I was looking through a newspaper to see if there were any other kittys that needed a home, there was, so I phoned up and this woman is fostering 7 kittens that are 7 weeks old, someone took them all to the vets to be put down but the vet wouldn't do it and let this woman have them!! So I am going to collect a little baby tabby boy on Friday night! Hooorah!! This has all been arranged properly so I will DEFINATELY be getting him! BUT theres more...hee hee....when I got home I checked my emails and there was a message from a guy who posted on the site in the SOS forums a while ago about a MAine Coon cat that needed re-homing....sooooo guess what? Im having him too!!! Cool eh? We're going to pick him up on Saturday!! His name is Ash and he is about 6-7 years old, mostly grey with black and white bits! I should be getting a picture of him today sometime so when I do I'll post it for ya!! We think we're gonna call the baby tabby "Pip" (short for Pippen or Pipsqueak!) Im so glad I have been able to rescue these babies at least, though I feel awful for the other I am not able to have....poor little darlin.....still maybe one day (like sometime next week haa ha) we happen to be driving past where the cat lives and he just happens to jump in the car......you know....what could I do?!!!
Anyway I just wanted to share my new happiness with everyone!! I will keep trying to find a solution for the other little one, and I will let you know what happens when I report the owner!! Thanks for your support everyone!!
PS Cleo!! Duh!! No I didn't even think of that!! ha ha ha ha...Sorry a little slow on the uptake!! ha ha ha...and Bill, don't worry I have lots of room in my house!! You can still see carpet!!
Thats lovely news about you giving a loving home to Pip and Ash, you must be so excited Bodlover
I,m so sorry to hear about the other little cat, aww poor little one, some people are so horrible.I feel the same, I would take him away from those terrible owners, he would have a very loving home with you Bodlover
That is wonderful news about Pip and the Mine Coon too!!! I am thrilled about tht working out for you and wondered what ever happened
Follow your conscience with regards to the other little fellow - BUT if the spca can't do much - the kitty snatch vehicle could just do a 'drive-by' and........well you know!
Thanks guys.... heh heh heh Deb... Im still "plotting" a rescue...dont' you worry...hee hee hee...sneaky eh?! I think I know someone who lives nearer than I do..maybe they will want a little baby....heh heh heh..
Thanks Deb! I can't wait either! I should hopefully be getting a pic of Ash today somewhen,so I'll post it as soon as I get it! But the pics of the baby Pip, will have to wait till Monday Im afraid!! But thats ok cos it means I've got all weekend to take a bizillion photos of them!! ha ha ha be warned.....
People like that don't deserve pets. They sound like the kind of people who would abuse them. I hope poor kitty is okay. Give yourself credit, at least you tried.
