Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / February 2004Returning a "lost" cat? Need help...
My girlfriend had been asking me for a cat for sometime. After several weeks I finally went out to get one. I waited for hours till I saw a stray scratching on someone's door. I brought it home and my girlfriend loved it. Long story short - she is spending way too much time with this cat. We had several conversations about what to do. She fears that I will once again become violent over this issue, so we agreed that I will leave the cat where I found it. I lost the original tags that were on the stray and don't remember the address. Is it safe to let it out and hope for the best - or should we leave it with a shelter? Need help please!

That makes two points that make this an obvious troll. Well, more than two points -- reference to his violence, etc. Let's lower it to a 3 on the trollometer.

Kinda defeats the purpose of calling them "strays." I think we need a little graphic, like a sign with numbers 1-10, so we can rate them like they do in the Olympics and at horse trials.

Great idea. Since I've never noticed that trolling is peculiar to one particular group of citizens. I wasn't offended, just boggled my mind what a silly statement that was.

It's a shame the real owner couldn't see this thread. Instead of $300 for finding the cat, it would be someone knocking on the door to talk about the cat being stolen. The best thing would be for the OP to take the $300 and invest in anger management classes. > The best thing would be for the OP to take the $300 and invest in anger > management classes. I could think of a lot more interesting things for him to do with the $300, but I supposed that means that *I* could use anger management classes. ;) > The best thing would be for the OP to take the $300 and invest in anger > management classes. I could think of a lot more interesting things for him to do with the $300, Welllllll now that you mention it lol. << It's a shame the real owner couldn't see this thread. Instead of $300 for finding the cat, it would be someone knocking on the door to talk about the cat being stolen. >> Well, I'm sure it wouldn't take much to find an email address for Rick Dees. In fact, I guess I'll go look now. If this really was true, a) I'm glad the cat got back to its real owner but b) I can't believe this bonehead actually "stalked" looking for a cat for several hours and then stole it. There are other ways to get cats. I hope this bonehead drops dead from mad cow disease or something worse. This girlfriend of his must be some major moron to live with him. She oughtta croak in some disgusting way, too, imho.

(Loren Eisely) The OP is a total loser but I actually think I do believe his story, instead of him being a troll (if I understand the meaning of that word). Firstly because of him coming and more or less begging us not to go to Rick Dees and then secondly, he sent me this today: The Cat has been returned to it's owner.

The guy either didn't want Rick contact because (1) the story was a heap of bullshit, or (2) he is a wannabe in the rock world and didn't want anyone to know that he was of scumbag variety far deeper than usual in that world. Given all the possibilities, whoever has their name invoked here needs to know about it if only as a right to privacy/publicity issue. Did you hear back from Rick Dees?

He gave Robin $300 bucks for [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > WE'RE GONE FROM HERE. As it turns out, sir, I am an acquaintance of Mr. Dees from long ago. I used to visit with Bruce Vidal when he worked at KIIS, and spoke to Dees on a number of occasions. Was on air a few times, too. I'm more than happy to fill him in on these events, so let's hope you're just some moron troll making it up and he'll only be amused. If not, you can look forward to an arrest on theft of property, extortion, and fraud, as I know he never takes anyone crap and would not hesitate to throw everything at you that he possibly can. At the very least I would recommend that Robin go down to the courthouse without delay and pay her warrants so she doesn't get arrested and have to go through central booking again. As for you, I recommend you beg your mommy for $300 to give back to Mr. Dees. He may go easier on you (though probably not let you off the hook entirely). << As for you, I recommend you beg your mommy for $300 to give back to Mr. Dees. He may go easier on you (though probably not let you off the hook entirely). >> Well, I sure hope he wouldn't go easy on this moron if this is all true. Sheesh. The guy stalked the neighborhood looking for cats, according to his story. That's pretty creepy/sicko to think of some bonehead lurking in the bushes watching for a cat to come his way. All the evidence is right in Google for anyone, including Rick Dees, to see...if it really happened. I'm having a hard time believing this bonehead Brett could be quite as stupid as he professes. Brandy, if you do know Rick Dees or someone on his staff, it would be nice if you could find out if there is any truth to any of this moronic story. I don't know if anyone will write back to me or not. Maybe you could print out the whole sordid story from the beginning and get it to him. It oughtta creep him out to know his neighborhood was being stalked, not to mention that his poor cat was snatched from its own front porch. And now this Brett knows where Rick lives, if it's all true. That would bother me. He (Rick) ought to go as hard on him as he can. It's a lot more than the 300 bucks...it was theft, stalking, fraud, extortion, who knows what. Get the story to him. Do you know if he really lives where this Brett said he lives? Candace (take the litter out before replying by e-mail) See my cats: http://photos.yahoo.com/maccandace "One does not meet oneself until one catches the reflection from an eye other than human."

WE'RE GONE FROM HERE. >> Hmmm, well, I did write to Rick Dees and point out to him rpchb where he can get all the "evidence" he needs. But I'm sorry...this is just all too trollish. I can't believe this Brett could be such a moron, it's too impossible to believe anyone is that stupid so I am back to thinking it was all trolling from the start. Maybe he was offended that we gave him such low marks on the trollometer for his original story and felt the need to embellish further? Otherwise, he certainly sounds like a candidate for the Darwin awards. I can only hope we hear back from Rick Dees' staff as to whether any of this was true otherwise it will remain an annoying little mystery.
