OMG! I am so freakin angry right now that I could just smash something!! I have a "friend" named Sandra (I don't know if I consider her a friend anymore after this crap) who adopted a beautiful little Russian Blue female RESCUE cat about 1 year ago. This cat was sooooo adorable and sweet. Plus she was already spayed and up to date on all shots. Sandra and her husband, Charley, only kept this cat for 1 month. Then one day Charley got "mad" at the cat and kicked it out the front door in the MIDDLE OF WINTER while there was SNOW ON THE GROUND!! I was so damn angry at him for doing that and at Sandra for allowing him to do that. I knew that Charley was getting fed up with the cat (god only knows why) and he wanted to get rid of it. So I had told him many times that if he decides to get rid of it, PLEASE give it to me and I would find a home for it. But what did he do? He threw the poor beauty out in the dead of winter. Bastard!
After I found out, my husband and I drove around their block for hours in search of this cat. But I was not able to find her.
So anyway, about 2 months ago Charley told me that he wanted to buy a female Siberian Husky. I said to him, "ARE YOU CRAZY?? You couldn't even take care of a simple 6 lb cat!! And now you want a BIG dog which will require a lot more attention then a cat???" Also his wife Sandra is HIGHLY allergic to fur. But Charley was seriously adamant about getting a dog -- so I felt that if they were going to get one regardless of what I said to discourage them, I should at least direct them to a GOOD breeder so that they don't buy from a pet shop. I found them a GREAT breeder in PA but the breeder didn't have any pups available right now. She told us that she was going to breed her female sometime in February when she came into heat. So Charley said that he'd wait and get a pup from her -- and I was at least happy that he'd have some time to think this whole situation over and maybe even reconsider.
Well what did the RETARD do? He went to A World of Pets (PUPPY MILL!
) and bought a Siberian Husky from them!! I was sooooo pissed! But here's the part that really makes my blood boil ... he only kept the pup for 2 weeks and then returned her because "she was too much work and because Sandra was allergic to her"!!!!!!!! Well HELLLLOOOOO if you cannot handle a cat, then how the heck are you going to handle a damn big dog??
And if your wife has SEVERE allergies, what makes you think a Siberian Husky won't trigger those allergies?
The reason I am even more angry today is because Sandra just called me and said that she and Charley are now thinking of getting another cat!!!
I said to her, "ARE YOU SERIOUS?? Why don't you go search fro the cat that you thew out last year?" And then I hung up on her!
PS - A World of Pets did NOT return any of his money -- He paid $1,000 for the dog. I'm GLAD that they did not return his money -- he deserves it!
PSS - It pisses me off that they threw out a RESCUE cat in particular. That cat was already saved from the streets, she was all cleaned up, spayed and up to date on shots. She had a second chance at life and then was thrown out into the streets again! I feel so sorry for that poor baby.
