Movie Reviews



I can safely assume this means that I don't babble over people's heads here. How come I can do that in writing but not when speaking?

-----

I brought the mentally challenged kitty to the vet to get her feline leukemia vaccination. We've decided that she's going to have to go live in the country with my sister or some friends. Haven't worked out the details yet. I talked to the vet about how we're still having problems with her using the litterbox when she's out of the kennel for more than 4-5 hours. I suggested the possibility of returning her to the humane society so that they could find her a home without kids and cats. The vet said it was highly unlikely that would work. She said that, in most cases, the change in environment doesn't elicit a change in behavior and the animal ends up being abused. She said very few people are willing to try as hard as we have. The best option is for her to become an outdoor cat in the country. She said if that wasn't working out, euthanasia was really the only other option.

I keep reminding myself that I didn't do anything to cause this and there really is no more we can do to help her. I feel horrible about this, though.

And of course, it didn't help that when I went to the vet, they had a whole bunch of puppies that are ready to go up for adoption. (They were half lab and half springer spaniel.) I want a puppy. But I don't. I want to have a puppy to play with, but I know we don't have the time for it right now. *sigh*
