LOAM get his owners to try him with Feliway before they give up on him! This stuff is great and has stopped my cats from spraying everywhere.

I really wish I could mate, but their mind to re home is fully made up.

Just a quick update. Neighbour has called to say a lady who replied to a note I put on works intranet picked Jinx up on Friday. He's going to the other side of Nottingham into a family who have a cat. Really good result.

Yay!

thanks for sharing the good news LOAM!

Hope he gets on alright with the one they've got already.

LOAM · 8 May 2011 at 13:47

He should be ok, he's lived with a dog and 3 kids next door for the last 3 years. It's a bitter sweet moment for us cause he's a lovely cat but him and Murray (ours) having been good mates as kittens had stared to scrap.

A good result with no pussyfooting around by the OP.

RSPCA and destroying animals seems to be a logic fail ?

They are really only interested in prosection these days rather than protection

Nice, well done sir!

They prosecuted a cop a few years back for spanging a cat with a shovel that had been run over to put it out of its misery.

I haven't donated a penny to them after that.

My auntie adopted a female cat from them last year.

4 months later (back in late October), said cat gave birth to 5 kittens.

She rang the RSPCA to tell them about this, as the cat was supposed to have been spayed of course, to ask if they would take the kittens to rehome once they were weaned as a) she didn't want the kittens and b) it was the RSPCA's fault she'd ended up with them. (apparently they had gotten her mixed up with another similar-looking cat and had her down as being spayed when she wasnt :rolleyes:

)

The RSPCA lady apologised profusely on the phone and said she'd ring her back.

Rang back about half an hour later, and said, "sorry, we don't have any room for any more kittens. If you put them in a box and put them somewhere outside, where mum can't get to them, then they'll be dead within a few hours."

:eek:

that's when I stopped donating.

The RSPCA told her to kill the kittens?! :eek:

I'm glad I never gave them any money now.

Not kill them... just let them die... Much better :rolleyes:

She found homes for them all and cancelled her direct debit too.

Craig1981 · 8 May 2011 at 14:31

Boils down to the same thing. Just because your not killing them directly, your still setting up the conditions for them to die. Glad she didnt take their advice.

The blatant hypocrisy of their behaviour really leaves a foul taste in my mouth. :mad:

Aww, Wish i could take him
