That's a shame. I know when my husband attended UT, we wanted a cat or a
kitten for a companion for me. It was so hard to find any!! They went like
hotcakes, I guess b/c it's a college town. We eventually found one who
happened to be orange & white :)
This woman could have found it a home, but it must have cramped her style. I
agree with you, she should be spayed and be banned forever from having any
other pets as well. It's obvious her fiancé has no heart, she should have
tossed him out instead!! If he has no feelings for helpless animals, then
how will he treat her? Geez!

I DO tend to be judgmental when I get the "I met a man and need to dump my
cat because he has a dog/kids/hates cats . . ." email. As a matter of fact,
got one the other day. Woman in Austin threw her 14 year old declawed cat
outside in this heat because her fiance is "allergic" AND then to add insult
to injury, she posted the cat for FREE on Craigslist. Yep, those are the
types of people that I have no use for and personally, I feel they should be
spayed/neutered. Are all people like that? Absolutely not. Are too many
people like that? you bet your boots. Sad, but true :(

In all honesty, I have found MANY people in rescue to be horribly cruel
and
judgmental - towards OTHER PEOPLE, particularly other people in rescue.
Rescue is a cutthroat business and not for the faint of heart. There's
always someone ready to kick you when you're down, say you are not doing
something right because you aren't doing what they would do, etc etc etc.
I've seen rescue groups purposely try to run other rescue groups out of
rescue. (This is not directed towards anyone here, just what I think
whenever I see an "I hate people" thread.) In contrast, MOST of my
adopters
have been lovely people. We did have a couple who moved to NYC and had a
baby who was allergic to the cats (and you can ask all the questions on a
form you want, when it comes down to it you don't know what people will
do)
and they bothered to contact us instead of sending the cats off to the
pound. We made arrangements for them to be picked up (they paid half) and
delivered back to us safely.
