NONONONO Cat has some select words for this situation: (new window)



Well, OK, it's just the one word. Over and over and over...

I don't wanna be buried...

I mean we all know that pussy can bleed for five days and not die but this is ridiculous!

Get that cat a book and movie deal




Sometimes they come back

Zombie cat, what are they feeding you? It's not your fault.

Idiots. Poor thing probably has brain and/or organ damage now. Kinder to finish the job.

/cat lover

This cat was left speechless on hearing the news.

You cannot kill me- I've been rejected by Death!

Awww... poor thing. Shame that so many tamed cats wind up on the street. I've got a super-tame, sweet, idiotic, and very cute kitteh that someone ditched at a gas station.

There lived a certain cat in Utah long ago
She was black and white, in her eyes a flaming glow...

You thought he was a goner... (pops)
/Loves linking this :)

Just in time for CATUR-- brains!!!!

/MEOW

When shelters are overcrowded, they should be allowed to dump the unwanted animals into the freedom of the city's outskirts. Either they'll die, or stay alive long enough to end up captured again and given another stint on display for a chance at adoption. Those that want to remain free will evade capture, those that want a respite from the hardship of scavenger will get their turn, and costs of running shelters will be kept down because the world and neglect will perform your executions for you.

Shelter Skelter
She's coming back fast
Yes she is

Didn't Buffy have this cat in the Dead Man's Party episode?

My heart goes out to the poor little thing, and just as much so to those who are in shelters and will not be able find a good, loving home.

/Would that I could house them all
//I miss my little Amadeus
///I only get to see him on weekends...

For god's sake please just spay and neuter your pets and quit buying from stupid breeders who don't follow the rules. There are sometimes low cost options for people who seriously can't afford it. It's a one time cost that will eventually help stop this kind of thing.

I know we all fall on hard times but if you can't afford to spay or neuter your pet, you probably can't afford to really have one in the first place.

/2 cats
//Both spayed

Just imagine how many don't die and are just buried/incinerated alive, because the "shelter" employees don't care.

I didn't have to click the link, I knew what it was, and that was enough to get it stuck in my head.

/somehow I didn't think of that when I first read the article

Problem: Cats tend to BREED.

They seem to have a fine method of fixing cats that aren't adopted already.

/doesn't like cats very much

One part of town here has a problem with feral cats, to the point they were talking about issuing bow hunting permits, and another part has a problem with seagulls. Seems like an easy solution to trap, fix and vaccinate and relocate the cats...

Releasing a species that likes to breed into an area with an ample food supply. What could go wrong?

hehee!!

Nevermind, apparently the night shift saps my ability to read. Sorry about that x_x

When they found her hypothermic in the freezer she had vomited and defecated on herself,

Oooooh, that's so cute.

Just in time for zombie-caturday.

sometimes... dead is better

SLC is really behind the power curve. The agencies on the coasts have mandatory spay and neuter on all animals going out of the shelters. As a result, fewer tractable cats and dogs are being euthanized. Gassing them? And putting the cat in a plastic bag? What the hell? Someone has a screw loose.

LincolnLogolas: Awww... poor thing. Shame that so many tamed cats wind up on the street. I've got a super-tame, sweet, idiotic, and very cute kitteh that someone ditched at a gas station.

One of my cats was most likely abandoned as a 9ish month old kitten. My ex's sister was working in a plain and a little cat walked up to her. He was meowing in stress at her and didn't have a collar or tags. Her boss wouldn't let her go home early to take the cat with her. So she told him to stay where he was and she'd come back for him. 2 hours later she returned in her car (she was there initially in company vehicles) and the cat was where she left him.

She took him home and had him looked over at the vet and given the proper shots. She lived at home and they had two dogs, one of which is a loud pushy jackass. She she called us and asked if we wanted a cat. We did and tome him home.

He was litter trained from the start and only scratched on scratching posts. He was nervous around me at first but took to girls easily, little schmoozer. He doesn't like new people. He's scared by them and hides. He also got outside once and apparently lost his mind. He ran from us and hid in the brush behind our home. Only after a week did he decide he had enough and started calling out to us and came out of hiding. So, with him being housebroken and willing to actually come up to a stranger I'm betting that he was someone's pet and had been alone for several days.

Him being skittish around others and taking to one person is part of his breed though. It turns out that he's a Nebelung, a fairly rare breed. He's an affectionate sweetheart though, so someone else's loss is my gain.

/My other cat came from a shelter. She was older (around a year) so no one wanted her, from what I was told. I'm glad I adopted her. She's energetic, playful, affectionate, and bat shait crazy like all women.

A gun with a drum magazine with a bottle of mayonaise strapped to it? Nice, that's what I was thinking.

Yes, the cat came back. They thought he was gone,
But the cat came back. He just wouldn't stay away.

Soon a cat will evolve that humans cannot kill. Then we are farked.
