Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2004Some People
I was just talking to my sister on the phone and she told me about a robbery from her local "Cats Protection" shop. Two teenage girls went in, one of them distracted the asistant while the other stole ?100 pounds from the till. What kind of people steel from a charity? The good news is, after the theft was reported in the local paper with a request that people call in and donate ?1, they raised over ?1000, more than ten times the ammount stolen. They now have enough money to refurbish the pens at the shelter, so the cats waiting for homes will be more comfortable this winter.

Although I'm glad they got such a good response from the community, I hope someone finds those two girls :( >> I was just talking to my sister on the phone and she told me about a >> robbery from her local "Cats Protection" shop.

Glad the community pitched in and that the animals will benefit. Do hope those low-down girls get caught, though, and soon. Ginger-lyn Out of the bad, good. Great stuff. Purrs to the donors & poo to the thieves.

That really *sucks* :-((( At least some faith in humainty is restored by the overwhelming donations received in compensation.... Deb.

I hope those girls spend the rest of their lives stepping in dog muck, getting shat on by seagulls and pigeons, and having their kitchens invaded by bugs of every description. Grrr.

Who knows? Maybe the girls really needed the money? Think of the consequences: the CPL got ten times the theft and a lot of people felt good donating to a worthy charity and got to take it off thier income tax, as well. And the CPL got some good advertising. -- CATherine > I was just talking to my sister on the phone and she told me about a > robbery from her local "Cats Protection" shop.

In other words, its a shame that they only got the extra money because of the theft, if only they would have got the donations normally...

Is community service a sentencing option in the UK?

Sooner or later they'll be caught for something though. SignatureAdrian (Owned by Snoopy & Bagheera) A house is not a home, without a cat. |
