let me just say to the person or persons who dumped their two cats in a carrier at the bottom of my driveway sometime last night in the pissing and pouring down rain....
are you freaking kidding me? are you that thoughtless, unkind, uncaring of your cats feelings and needs that you cannot figure out that by the time i found them this morning, they were absolutely beyond terrified????
have you heard of the SPCA? they are open from 9 am til 5 pm 7 days a week? you couldn't have driven to abbotsford and respectfully and with at least some kind of dignity surrendered them there? you had to leave them by the side of the road in the dark all alone with cars zipping by, with rain pouring down, with raccoons and coyotes wandering around? you had some kind of intelligent reason for this??
and did it possibly occur to you that the reason all of our messages say we are full..might be because we have no money...might be because we have no space..might just be because we are finding the actual workload backbreaking and difficult to care for the 140 animals already here?
so you just thought you would without asking, without checking, dump on us a couple of more?
how do you know we are even going to look after them???...maybe we really suck at rescue and we will let them stop eating and drinking, get sick, and die and not even notice? how the fuck do you know if you just dumped them in a terrible place to get lost among all of the others?
you don't know cuz you did not ask us if we could help your two little cats..you just assumed that we would do it because aren't all rescues supposed to take excellent care of every single countless and never fucking ending animal dumped on them every fucking day by every clueless fucking idiot who can't find the spca?
hello? SENIOR ANIMALS IN NEED TODAY SOCIETY (AKA SAINTS)...we try to help senior animals when we possibly can. your two four year old cats just spelled two senior cats death sentences on some shelter death row somewhere.
way to go.
SAINTS welcomes scar and nola..who i am now calling Maestro and Sage cuz they don't want to ever have any further connection with you including their past life names.
Perhaps these two can be the stars in an upcoming Take Me Home Tuesday feature, as much as it is great the cats are safe... they are young & ( hopefully ) healthy and deserve the best chance at having their very own home with people who will keep their committment to them.
I love their new names & look forward to meeting them.
