The topic: In my email this morning

----------------------------------------------

This cheery little message was in my declaw stories email this morning. My response to this person was they didn't have the mindset to own a cat, they'd be better off with a dog. I can't help with the rehoming, but maybe someone here could. I hate that people adopt animals and treat them like so much trash when they're tired of them. I really, really hate it.

thestory: Hi,

I’m writing because I cannot stand my crazy cats anymore. I found your site by looking for No Kill shelters in California (I’m willing to travel almost anywhere in the state to get a good home for my cats). Do you know of any, or perhaps could you point me to a site where there is a no kill shelter listing? I’ve looked everywhere, and my friends and family are incapable of taking my cats… or they simply do not want too. .

I guess I’ll just take them to the regular pound. I can’t deal with this crazyiness anymore. But I’m afraid a normal shelter may just kill Ivan the day I bring him in (because he likes to bite), but I think at least Vlad will have a chance. I got them from a shelter in the first place so I figure that I’ve extended their life by four months, anyway.

Your site is very helpful, but I would suggest enhancing and adding a part about fostering animals because when I’m more financially secure I want to start adopting more from the shelter. But these cats aren’t really what I was looking for. Again, Ivan likes to bite and I hope to someday find a cat I can truely love. One that will love me as much as I love animals. These just ignore me when I come home.

Hey, I have one more question. What is a perfect time to adopt a kitten? (For the future, of course). I think that Ivan and Vlad there three months old when I adopted them, and that might have been part of the problem. Do you suggest five weeks? Six weeks? Eight weeks?

Thanks for your time!
