Oh, Lord, Kelley, these people really have no right to any pets!!! Poor Jack, I hope he didn't suffer too much. I know he knows you cared and would have helped him. The bigger question is whether he can forgive his boneheaded people. Gentle Bridge vibes to the dear boy.
I know you're trying to be charitable, but do you know if they fed and watered Jack during that time? For his sake I pray they did, but if they didn't, doesn't that constitute abuse, and could they not be reported? Or would that open a can of worms with your own situation that you'd rather not?

I don't know if yall remember, but Jack was the neighbor's tomcat we got neutered that was pos/pos for FELV and FIV. I try so hard to be charitable with people, and am usually successful, and this person is in a wheelchair, but apparently they saw Jack out in the yard not moving (but still alive) and brought him in and put him on the back porch and he was there 3 days before he died. They didn't call me for assistance, or anything, I would have taken him to the vet and put it on our burgeoning credit card bill. Now they have new kittens which we will have to take to get altered also, or it won't get done...and she took a dog to the pound to be killed because he bit someone - now she wants an Irish Setter puppy..sigh. We have it in our code of ethics that people are animals too, and should be treated well..but sometimes it is just hard. Anyway, please add Jack to the CLS...may he have a better life over the bridge than he did here, and may he forgive me for not doing anything to help him, I would have done so if I had known.
