Topic : 03/07 When Too Much is ... Too Much

There are several different issues going on here.

She has 200 cats.  WOW I admire people with that much dedication.  Their hearts are beautiful and she is a LOVELY, WONDERFUL PERSON. Mother Teresa spent her life caring for orphans in Calcutta and was handed a Nobel Peace Prize  It is people like them that make the world a better place  That said.  She may have issues.  To let that consume you to the point here you do not see your family or have any social life... well that may not be healthy.  But however, that is her choice.

Now those neighbors... Im sorry, they came off as money hungry, lying, degenerate lowlives.  Seriously, "Well there was some antifreeze left out in my house.. i dunno if the cats drank it."  Yeah right.  Noone in their right mind would just leave antifreeze out, esecially if they know that there are animals roaming the area.  Unless you WANT the animals to drink it.  I doubt that they actually drank it.  I belive that they might have been poisoned.  But only they know.  If they did may God have mercy on them.

Any person who would go thru the process of killing living things out of spite, has more serious issues than a person caring for 200 cats.  All they care about is their property value....moeny money money.  At least someone has their priorities straight.

I think that lady has the right to have those cats. I know that the law says otherwise but the law is stupid. At least she is taking care of them. Everyone is always whinning to adopt cats and dogs cause they need homes. Well this lady gave them a home. She takes care of them and loves them. So what if she spends lots of  money on them. She loves them and it makes her happy and the cats are happy to. She gets them fixed so they can't make more cats. Which is another good thing that she does. If they take them away from her then there will be lots of homeless cats. When they could all have homes and be wanted. All whats going to happen is they are going to be put to sleep. That isn't fair. I know she will probably lose the case and I hope she doesn't. She is a good person and I think she should be able to keep them. The law sucks!

I believe this woman has wonderful intentions, but 200 cats is ridiculous and I don't blame her neighbors for filing complaints. 

I love animals and I've worked as a veterinary assistant in the past.  If I could help every animal on the planet find a safe & loving home, I would do it, but I know that is unrealistic.  She really needs to think about her own life, health and the health of the cats, as well as the concerns of her neighbors. 

I know how much veterinary visits cost and I'm sure every cat has not been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV, vaccinated, dewormed, on a flea and/or tick preventative and spayed or neutered.  If this woman would really like to start a "sanctuary" for unwanted cats, I commend her, but she cannot do it in her back yard.  It's just not healthy for anyone!  She needs an organized facility with individuals to help her take care of them.

I hope everyone remembers to be RESPONSIBLE and spay or neuter your cat and/or dog.  It's not only important for eliminating unwanted pregnancies, but it also decreases the chances of cancers in your animals reproductive system!!
