[Felvtalk] (no subject)

2009-07-30 Thread Cindy Jackson

How can you make sure that someone who wants to adopt your cat is legitimate?
Has anyone ever offered to adopt your cat here on felvtalk or have you found 
someone here that you called to ask if they could adopt your cat? If so, how 
did you make sure they are reputable?

Check with his vet
Anyone adopting an FeLV+ cat had best be on a first name
basis with a vet
Will the adopter allow you or someone you know to see how the
cats will be living ???
And are they willing to answer all your questions ???

Yes... I have adopted maybe 20 FeLV+ cats from this list in the
past 6 years but none in the last couple years I think
I am getting old and slowing down after my heart attack a year
ago.

What if I can't personally take the cat?
The adopter does not live in CA. I live in San Diego, CA.

He does answer all of my questions. The only thing he refuse to give me was his 
address. Should I be concern? He says that he wouldn't like his address to slip 
out and then have a line of people outside his place asking him to adopt their 
cats.

I would want to see the place where the cat is going to be living.
You could offer to sign a confidentiality agreement. 
I would recommend either doing a home visit before the adoption or deliver
the cat.

Myself.. I would want to talk with some one who knew this place maybe
from this list or another
Adoption is always a risk and there is always a question if the alternative
is better or worse...
I adopted 6 cats from the Angel Wings things and I guess at one time that
was a good sanctuary but when they finally shut it down those poor animals
were in as terrible condition as they could be... Who knows what happened...

I'm not giving my cat to just anyone. I have spoken to the family. 
Will never know them personally, face to face, but I have done my work and know 
I can trust them. Besides, not long ago a FeLV cat from a member here was 
adopted by the same family and she knows them personally. She has nothing bad 
to say about them.
I trust her too. She has helped me a lot.

What if I can't personally take the cat?
The adopter does not live in CA. I live in San Diego, CA.

He does answer all of my questions. The only thing he refuse to give me was
his address. Should I be concern? He says that he wouldn't like his address
to slip out and then have a line of people outside his place asking him to
adopt their cats.

Check with his vet
Anyone adopting an FeLV+ cat had best be on a first name
basis with a vet
Will the adopter allow you or someone you know to see how the
cats will be living ???
And are they willing to answer all your questions ???

Yes... I have adopted maybe 20 FeLV+ cats from this list in the
past 6 years but none in the last couple years I think
I am getting old and slowing down after my heart attack a year
ago.

I have offered to take this cat for life no matter how long or short  it 
might be, and give it a loving home with other cats to play with, a family  
that cares about them and my own time, effort and funds to take care of them. 
Reyna, I will be happy to give you references from rescue groups that have  
dealt with me and know me as well as the mgr at the local SPCA that i work  
with.  i think my name will stand any scrutiny that you would like to  give.

 Having that said Reyna you need to
 know  where the cat will be going. You can't just give the
 cat to anyone. A  lot of people do not care about animals and
 do horrible things to  them.
 I'm assuming someone will be taking the cat personally.  Do

 Myself.. I would want to talk with

 from this list or another
 Adoption is always a risk and there is always a question if
 the alternative
 is better or worse...
 I adopted 6 cats from the Angel Wings things and I guess at
 one time that
 was a good sanctuary but when they finally shut it down
 those poor animals
 were in as terrible condition as they could be... Who knows
 what happened...

Re: [Felvtalk] (no subject)

2009-07-30 Thread Susan Hoffman

Please both Reyna and Michael, don't take other people's concerns personally.  
It is good to check things out and be a little skeptical before handing over a 
cat to someone you don't know.

Awhile back I took an FIV+ cat from Glendale, California.  The people sending 
teh cat wanted references, which I gave them.  They did check the references.  
They were very paranoid (actually suggested that I might sell the cat to a 
lab!) but I just gritted my teeth and reminded myself to look at it from their 
perspective.  They even photographed the transport person and checked his 
driver's license before he left with the cat.

It's OK.  Better to be too careful than not careful enough.
