I am currently trying to find a home for our little rescue foster baby. He has a neuter/ vaccination appointment this coming Sunday and will then be ready to find a new home ... I posted an add and I will charge only for his neuter, vaccinations, microchip cost- $85 and include a package with new toys, tunnel and scratcher and litterbox, food ... and I cannot seem to find any half decent person to adopt our little baby. The people that applied are making me so sad :
A family with children told me they had cat experience ... turns out they just dumped their two cats off at a shelter in another state before they moved here less than 3 months ago, then I got a family with two huge hunting dogs with prey drive even though I stated clearly that our kitten is terrified of dogs, another family has no idea if their lease even allows cats, there is the family with three kids under the age of 5 who were so rough with the kitten that I had to intervene ( parents thought that behavior was just " fun play" ...) , two more applicants got rid of cats in the past ... one because he started to spray ( not neutered of course) and the other because they were pregnant - no vaccination needed for indoor cats they said and the kitten will be a gift to their small kid... Oh and ... my favorite ... : the people who said they wanted a new outdoor cat because their last 4 were killed by wildlife in the last 3-4 years ... pulling my hairs out ... ALL of them tried to tell me that I am charging too much and that they would pay $25 max lol ... what is wrong with people? Apparently our throw away society includes cats as disposable? I fear for this little one - who is ... the most easy going kitten ever, he likes people, he likes other cats, he plays, he cuddles, he uses the litterbox - he deserves a good home! ... He will get neutered and vaccinated regardless .... and he can stay here as long as needed. I am sad for all those poor cats out there who end up in less than ideal circumstances ... I decided to take a break from potential adopters ... too depressing lol
