Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / June 2005Ping Dan!!! Conan Update!!
Dan, I just spoke with Katherine at the shelter and she says just come in and ask for her and you can take Conan. She will be there tomorrow, but she does not have to be there for you to do this. I have arranged for you to receive a PayPal for $200 for the adoption fee, your expenses, and something for you for being such an angel. If it is not there tonight, it will be there first thing in the morning. Rhonda will be able to arrange transportation, I just know it! So I am not going to wait to have the money sent to you You might want to call and "reserve" Conan tomorrow if there is a delay with the flight, so you don't have to have him at home and upset your other cats. Poor Harri is recuperating, so we want her to be calm. As long as they know you are coming, they will not euthanize him. I feel sure he could be fine through after the fourth, even. Yippeeee!!! >Dan, > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > >Yippeeee!!! Think of all the fun we're gonna have over the months and years that follow, riding Arty-Phillip about all the stuff he said about the group not moving fast enough on this. I'm going through all his posts and will compile all the ammo needed to make him look like an a.s (like he needs the help) for years to come. eq g wrote: > Think of all the fun we're gonna have over the months and years that > follow, riding Arty-Phillip about all the stuff he said about the group [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > eq Great! You have preannounced yours will be a deliberate, selective, piece of libel ("ammo, make him *look* like ..."). Wonderful! Send me an autographed copy, won't you. Paperback is fine. I've never had an unauthorized biography done on me before. Make sure you accurately copy/paste, time/date these selectively chosen quotes. Who is "Arty?" Is this an introduction to a pseudo name you will use to protect the innocent? You have a shallow life, "eq".

I just enjoy insects like you meeting face on with karma, that's all! Enjoy reaping what you've sewed on here, I know the group will! Spankard....... I decidedly don't do cross-postings; the first thing I do is mark the conversation as read. If someone I know and respect posts a reply I may reply. And yes, I sometimes screw up and hit reply to all without knocking out the other groups. But this post is just another example of some people spilling CRAP over from one group to another. Henceforth, not read. This is how it's done, folks :) Persia is snoring. I didn't sleep well last night so neither did she.

Little Arty isn't worth the effort. In fact, by his behavior, and the actions of all those involved in the rescue of Conan, he's thoroughly finished himself here. His own posts will do more damage to himself than any of us could ever do. Poor little Art. eq > You might want to call and "reserve" Conan tomorrow if there is a delay with > the flight, so you don't have to have him at home and upset your other cats. > Poor Harri is recuperating, so we want her to be calm.

We're gonna get this guy a new home! > Dan, > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Yippeeee!!! I'm happy that Conan might have a home, but a few things concern me. From your earlier post, you said that you told Katherine that Dan was going to be the adopter, not Charlie Wilkes, rather than find out if out-of-state adoptions were permitted. As a former cat fosterer, I like to know whatever I can about the potential adopter. Throughout this story, I felt confident that Charlie would have to fill out an adoption application, have his vet information verified, etc. Now it seems that isn't going to happen and it doesn't sit right with me. That poor cat has been through enough already and deserves to have the shelter policies - that are meant to protect him - followed. What do we know about Charlie Wilkes? Only what Google provides. From what I've seen so far, I wouldn't adopt a cat to him. Just my 2¢, and with that said, I have to say that all of the pulling together to help Conan warms my heart. He just deserves the best, as do all of the poor little homeless, rejected kitties.  SignatureCheryl "The clever cat eats cheese and breathes down rat holes with baited breath." - W.C. Fields Actually, just in case the shelter won't approve out-of-state adoptions, I wonder if Charlie would consent to filling out the adoption paperwork, then have someone who has done this sort of thing before do the typical vet verification? That way I believe all parties would be satisfied and this beautiful kitty will end up in his forever home. >> Dan, >> [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] > pulling together to help Conan warms my heart. He just deserves the > best, as do all of the poor little homeless, rejected kitties. There ya go ... looking a gift horse in the mouth. Your drama crankcase is still a quart low? I knew this would happen. You're about to muck up a good adoption. For what it's worth, the OC Shelter did not ask for the name of my veterinary. The only stipulation was that the "free first office visit" had to occur during the first 72 hours of ownership. >>> Dan, >>> [quoted text clipped - 41 lines] > veterinary. The only stipulation was that the "free first office visit" > had to occur during the first 72 hours of ownership. YEAH! Look what happened. MLB >>>> Dan, >>>> [quoted text clipped - 45 lines] > > YEAH! Look what happened. MLB Sweetie, you know nothing about vets out here. If I told you who my veterinary was, you would soon be sitting a few inches higher on your chair in your own filth. I really mean that. My former vet's office is well known and her practice nearly 25 yrs in existence. > > Dan, > > [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] > pulling together to help Conan warms my heart. He just deserves the > best, as do all of the poor little homeless, rejected kitties. And I just wanted to add that of all your posts, this one is probably the one that speaks the most about your true character. It just warms *my* heart to see such concern. > "> And I just wanted to add that of all your posts, this one is probably > the one that speaks the most about your true character. It just warms > *my* heart to see such concern.>> What sort of home did you want for Conan? Will he live inside , can Charlie afford his vets bills etc ? Did you Google Charlie? I know Charlie from RPDB. He lives in a rural area and lives a rural life which has a harder attitude towards animals, Its kind of him to offer Conan a home and I know he cares about animals. he helped a stray cat he found but he found it bleeding and I appreciate there are many vets near by in rural areas but it never was checked over by a vet which is pretty important . Also his dog ran off and he tied it up ouitside and didn't feed it for two days to try to teach it not to do it again , Thats not the way to go about dealing with an animal . I wonder if he knows enough about cats to be able to deal with introducing a new cat to his recent one and other problems that cats can present . Alison >> "> And I just wanted to add that of all your posts, this one is >> probably the one that speaks the most about your true character. It [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > and other problems that cats can present . > Alison If you make the adoption criteria strict enough, nobody HERE could qualify. They say ... when you get married, you marry not only your new spouse but all of their family too. That ought to be a deal breaker to any adopting party if ANY of you anoint yourselves as Conan's "family." Nobody is going to welcome your harassing phone calls in the name of "loving concern." >Throughout this story, I felt confident that Charlie would >have to fill out an adoption application, have his vet information [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >Only what Google provides. From what I've seen so far, I wouldn't >adopt a cat to him. HORK! Thank you for not posting any examples. I have been wondering when this would come up. It is completely reasonable given the trouble and expense to which you are committing yourselves. Perhaps the group can trust Rhonda to perform at vetting at SeaTac before handing over Conan. In the mean time, here is my self-disclosure statement: I am male, 47, self-employed, financially solvent. I live in a singlewide trailer in rural Whatcom County on 5 acres of land with a tenant who is a mechanic. I also have a more substantial residence in the San Juan Islands from which I am taking a cultural sabbatical. My tenant has two dogs who are well-controlled, have never caused problems and are always kept further back on the property where my tenant lives. I have one dog and my cat, Tweaker, and they have now become very fond of each other, as I hoped they would. My dog is at her best with small children and smaller animals, which is why I was glad when a cat presented itself. And why not another cat since the first one has worked out so well? My intention will be to keep him indoors, like I do Tweaker. If problems arise, I have the time and patience to work out solutions. I'm single with no kids, and animals are a good way for me to focus some positive energy.

I haven't paid anything towards Conan, so I don't get any say so you know. I did read all of your posts, I see nothing that would cast any shadow in my mind (if I was helping with Conan's expenses) The rooster toe was rotted Of course you was not going to drown a cat - no more than Kitkat luna's freind was going to shoot her cat to the moon. I am extremely impressed with your attitude just now. VERY rational! Very logical; very mature. I'm going to use that attitude myself. Don't do this to Charlie. I posted the Cannibas ping, just to give Charlie a platform to speak his mind on the matter He lives out to himself...he's fine. If your not careful, Philip is going down to the shelter Monday morning and pull the rug out from under all of ya! Don't do Charlie a dirty on this. > Don't do this to Charlie. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Don't do Charlie a dirty on this. Are 'we' stirring the minion soup, heir BBB? LOL I cannot offer a single wide trailer, with an established cat and dog, with two more outside dogs, with a rent paying roommate who turns wrenches for a living, nor a long beard of my own to let Conan snuggle up in ... 'tis true. I cannot even off Conan his old vet! I just don't know what to say ... if anything. ;^) But guaranteed, the minions are sharpening their spears and dipping them in the usual poison potions. >In the mean time, here is my > self-disclosure statement: Charlie, that all sounds well and good, but quite frankly, I am very concerned about what has been posted that you tied your dog up and that you didn't feed him for 2 days for running off. Is this true, Charlie? I want to see Conan get a home as much as anyone else here, but I think some valid concerns have been raised. I would like to thank Mary, Dan, Rhonda and the others who have been working very hard putting this together. I just know a great, and this time, a forever home is going to be found for Conan. Lauren home is going to be found for Conan. > Lauren AH BULLSHIT, DON'T GET ME STIRRED UP, IT'S BEEN A GOOD DAY..\ I can't stand a busy body!!!!!!!!!! CLOSE YOUR PIE HOLE! YOU DON'T GIVE A sh.t ABOUT CONAN!!!!! Put your money on the table then you can rail on Charlie!!!! You non donating busy body!!!!!!

You're > just a tired old man who has nothing worthwhile to say. If you not a pothead then your a sot! Hi Charlie, It's not easy introducing new cats , much harder than introducing dogs. They can be pretty territorial and aggressive to each other. I would read up about the best way to do it so you don't have problems further down the line. Slow introductions are best and if they fight don't use spray them or shout as this just creates more agro. --Alison http://catinfolinks.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ http://doginfolinks.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/ > >Throughout this story, I felt confident that Charlie would > >have to fill out an adoption application, have his vet information [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > > Charlie >fosterer, I like to know whatever I can about the potential >adopter.

What do we know about Charlie Wilkes? A lot of shelters do not do full checks. Consider those who adopt at cat shows and stores. If they hand over the cat the same day, there is no checkup. They reserve the right to check up after the fact. I have kept in contact with the shelter since they go to the same shows that I do. But I only filled out a short form, basically address information. I was not asked who my vet was, what other animals I have, etc. Signature-- Meghan & the Zoo Crew Equine and Pet Photography http://www.zoocrewphoto.com >>fosterer, I like to know whatever I can about the potential >>adopter.

Even if they take the information many don't do any follow up. We show our rescue cats at PetSmart on Saturdays and sit next to the SPCA ladies who's idea of screening is if they look sane give them a cat. The cats go out the door the same day. They do a lot more questioning with the dogs for some reason. W |
