Mi bad breed puss

Re: Mi bad breed puss

I am so sorry to hear. It is better you be up front with the biting information though than to subject someone else to a bad experience with a rescue. It would make them never want to do it again.

Letting him loose is the worst thing you can do. Trust me, he would be better off being put down that that.

The only other thing I can think of is if you can find a cat person who would take him in. Sometimes there are foster homes we aren't aware of. Maybe call your local veterinarian offices and ask if they know anyone who can help you keep him from being put down and tell them this is your last resort.

The only other thing I can think of is if you were to keep him caged. I know one cat who lives in a large dog cage because he isn't clean about using the litter box otherwise. He has toys and perches and his food and water and he seems just fine. It is not an ideal situation but his choice was that or death.

I'm so sorry for your problem.

Re: Mi bad breed puss

That is really a bad plan to do that. Barn cats are very territorial and would make mincemeat of this cat. It is traumatizing for the animal to be abandoned and really, the needle is better alternative than that. Um...plus it is highly illegal and penalties are stiff. I don't think any animal lover wants abandoning an animal on a road on their record either.

When I worked as poundmaster for a smaller town in Mn it happened a lot and I would get calls in the middle of the night for the bushes have eyes.

Re: Mi bad breed puss

This is a tough one. Look in your local paper in the pet section and see if you can identify any cat rescue groups other than the pound.

I am so sorry for your angst. It happens...when we have the best of intentions, that sometimes it just doesn't work out. The kitty was a basket case from before you tried to help him and it isn't fair that you have to go through this now.

I have had my share of rescue animal gone wrong. One time I adopted an American Eskimo adult female with a 3 month old mix breed puppy she had. I was able to find a good home for the puppy and planned to keep the huksy. Well, one day as I was leaving home I checked my pasture to see if I could see the horses. When I couldn't see them from where I was, I backed down my dirt road a few feet. My little Eskie dog was behind my car and i backed over her, killing her instantly. I still feel bad when I think about how that went!

I was 22 at the time and thought I was going to rescue all of the stray animals in the world. I did a fair share of it but I also ran into problems. Like the time I took in a feral Great Dane and Lab mix full grown dog. He was a year old and huge and you couldn't get within 50 or 100 feet from him but I was determined. Well, what ended up happening...was before I could get near him he got tangled up with a porcupine. I figured it was my big chance to be able to get ahold of him and tame him. That was the furthest thing from what actually happened. He was even more afraid because he was injured and one thing about porcupine quills is, if you don't get them out they work their way inside all the way. That is what was happening to this dog and I had to call a neighbor to put him out of his misery. I don't think I have ever felt as terrible as I did over that but I really had no other recourse.

I just thought I'd say all that to let you know that you are not alone. You tried to help the puss. It's sad that it didn't work out but sometimes it go so. Kudo's to you for even trying with this guy and I hope someday you get the kitty of your dreams.

Better to pay the shelter to put him down humanely than to let him loose to fend for himself only to end up as Coyote food.

Re: Mi bad breed puss

((((frenchtickla))) mi sorry man. I know this is not an easy thing to do.

Nooks, your storey is pitiful. I took in this dog I found down by the univeristy where I work. She had a collar imbedded into her neck....I took her to my vet to have her put down and he would not do it. I took her home and kept her another 5 years. She turned out to be the best guard dog I could have. Don't lay a hand on me or she would have you for dinner! We used to tease her and have someone act like dem gonna hit me with rolled up newspaper....of course you'd have to be standing by the door to run out! I miss her.....RIP my Dixie girl. Oh my.
