The same thing happened to me! When I lived in an apartment the guy who came to fix my cooler left the door open and one of my Persian cats got out. I called every shelter...put up flyers everywhere. Finally after 2 days I got a hold of my local pound and described my cat and the lady said yes we have your cat. So i went down there asap and when I arrived and asked for my cat they all gave me this scared look and said ooh we just adopeted that cat out. I was pissed! There policy is to hold animals for 10 days! The person in charge came out and was like no it wasn't a persian it was a different cat, it wasn't yours. Ok I described the cat as long haired, blue in color with a flat face and the lady had said yes......how is that not a persian? I never got my kitty back and since then I have heard that if they get any purebred animals in that they try and adopt them out asap for a huge fee! |
