Title: DUMPED
Post by: Ela on February 14, 2009, 22:04:08 PM

Someone  knocked on my front door a few mins ago and said as he was walking his dogs he noticed someone put a carry case outside my door, run up the path and into a car that roared off. In it are two beautiful girls, I gave found a letter pushed in the letter box to say why they can't be kept. I will try to get pics tomorrow.

Poor girls - could have been worse though. People are so cowardly  :( - still, I'm sure they will be well cared for with you  :hug:

Trouble is Mark I am going on holiday on Friday so need to find them somewhere fast. Also I have been thinking what if they had been dumped next Saturday. It worries me thinking about it.

let's hope the people who dumped them were pretty sure someone was in

I can just about understand desperate people doing such things, but I can't understand them not making sure their unwanted cats are safe, and I think leaving some contribution with them, however small, shouldn't be beyond anyone

 >:( How horrible. It's such an irresponsible way to behave. The poor girls, hope they're OK.

How awful, not good but thankfully they were brought to the right place and not just suddenly left to fend for themselves outside.  How old do they look Ela?

They look fine although Puss Mum age 4 is hissing and spitting just now and Jess her unspayed daughter is cowering in the carry basket still. According to the note they are a loving pair so hiefull they will soon allow me to cuddle them.

Ela you got the luxury of a note.

I know. quite unusual. I just wish there had been a little more information such as their  likes and dislikes, if or when they had been flead and wormed and had injections etc, but still at least we have their names, ages and know one has not been spayed. I do think their owner loved them.

Good luck with these two - Fri 13th seems to have been a bad day for a few of us.

I suppose you learn to read the situation quite well over time. If that's the case, it must've been a terrible decision to make; and they certainly went about it the wrong way. (I suppose we all make mistakes, I just think some are a little larger than others.)

poor wee mites but at least they dumped them at your door and not in the middle of a wood somewhere!!!

hope they settle soon Ela and are feeling much better and find a new home where they can be happy again.
