Fluff's back


Poor Fluff came back to me tonight. I could honestly have strangled the woman. Her reasons??

1 - She spent all Christmas hiding under the Christmas tree
2 - She kicks all her litter out of the tray
3 - She doesn't DO anything
4 - She wasn't very affectionate, except when she was on the computer and then she'd sit on her lap
5 - She'd obviously been hit, as when people went to stroke her she'd cower away

I was literally gobsmacked! What did she expect from the poor thing? Obviously she was going to be scared going into a new home, all the noise and bustle of Christmas. Under the tree would be a perfect hiding place. And her coming and sitting on her lap was a sign of her coming out of herself. If she kicks the litter out, buy a flaming covered tray. She doesn't do anything!! What does she expect, a performing poodle? So I'm actually very glad she has come back to us, rather than being left in the hands of an incompetent! Oh and her final words when she left the house 'We're going to try again in the spring with a kitten' My words, ' Good luck with that' and shut the door! 'Cause she certainly wont be getting one of ours.

How awful. She doesnt know what goes into owing a cat. I hope she doesnt find one as i would hate to see what would happen to that one. When he first got guinness he pooh up a skirting board. Chester is still pee-ing in corners and Lucky is copying him. Who cares i dont. They have wrecked 2 settees as well am i bothered not in the least.

Re: Fluff's back


Well done for being civil, Alex. Looking on the bright side, the woman brought Fluff back to you - she didn't just kick her outside.

Perhaps you'll have better luck rehoming her next time. Please give her a gentle smooth from me.

Re: Fluff's back


Shocking. However, this seems to be the trend . . . the pet has to fit in immediately (like this season's decor) or else . . .

It makes me very, very angry . . . glad to read you're more tactful than I would have been

Re: Fluff's back


That almost makes me want to cry. Poor Fluff. And that awful experience is probably going to make her more wary in her new home......
