Something good from something so bad.
A few months ago our branch of Cats Protection took in two middle aged
neutered boys, because their owner was moving abroad and couldn't take them with him. He'd moved in, temporarily, with his sister, who is allergic to cats, and he'd put his house up for sale to fund the move. Well, the house sale fell through, but he perservered, and tried another estate agent. He kept in touch, asking if the cats had been rehomed yet. Just before Christmas, the house sale fell through again, and he rang to ask if the cats were still with us. Three days ago he rang us again to explain that he'd been planning on moving to Thailand, where he'd been offered a job. Well, the job isn't there any longer, thanks to the earthquake and subsequent tsunami, and he's decided that since the fates are so obviously against him leaving England, he should listen to them. He's moved back into his house, and collected the cats, who are VERY happy to be home again. Jeanette |

Nice to hear some good news! I bet he was glad he hadn't already moved out
to Thailand. Our thoughts are with all those who are affected, wherever they may be. Hopefully with aid crossing all barriers, perhaps people will realise that we're all on this planet together and it's about time we stopped fighting each other.

Remarkable, how fate spins around like that. I'm glad all three of them have
been "rehomed" together1 Blessed be, Baha Jeanette wrote: A few months ago our branch of Cats Protection took in two middle aged neutered boys, because their owner was moving abroad and couldn't take them with him.

Jeanette OK, maybe it's just because I'm in a bad mood today (tired, walked on by the boss, stressed, and coming down with some kind of grunge), and everything is rubbing me the wrong way. But I just don't understand how someone could give away his furbabies - no matter what the reason may be. To me that would be like saying, I have to find a new home for my children because I'm moving overseas. Couldn't do it - would find another job, would even go on welfare and live under a bridge before doing that. I'm kind of bummed that they had to go back to live with someone who gave them away! : Hugs, CatNipped |
