Re: Story of Survival


What a little darling, but how very very odd firstly not to have looked in there in the first place??? and then give her up cos they are upset by the distress they have caused?? that is a load of old cobblers they were throwing her out by the sound of it. What loving family wouldn't be distressed but relieved to have her back?

Re: Story of Survival


Very tragic, but what a fighter little Emmy is!

I don't want to judge as different people react in different ways, but if it were my cat I would be doing all in my power to make it up to her rather than palming her off on a new home.

Sadly (IMO) I think it's indicative of how 'disposable' people think cats are

Poor cat! First place I would have looked after inside the house. Did no one see her at the window????? Whole thing stinks - glad the people gave her up and that (fingers crossed) she'll get a new loving home. She looks a lovely cat.
