Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / July 2005What? Who?
I have been reading about Conan along with everyone else. I have read three posts now and am not certain how Conan got rescued, where he is at now, and who is going to adopt him? Who were the two groups? Who adopted him anon? I don't ask this to stir the pot--sincerely interested. Now, if we can turn all this energy to all the other abandoned kitties. Thanks, Jen > I have been reading about Conan along with everyone else.

You've been reading along with everyone else ... all THREE posts. I'm impressed. I would not be surprised if the various Conan threads compiled is in excess of one thousand posts!

I would not be surprised if the various Conan > threads compiled is in excess of one thousand posts! I started crunching this very thing last Sunday ( I think ) I isolated your posts with the "Find" and "Move to other folder" feature in my reader, this created a *.dbx file. You can open any file in Excel, which I did. My goal was to use the "Auto Summary" in Word, to Summarize your writings. I extracted the text in a single manuever, I pasted the text into Word. You alone posted over 7,800 words on the subject of Conan. The "Auto Summary" was not fluid enough to share; but it certainly goes without saying you did in fact express your regret for having to return him. You took no delight in having to return him, and you definetely took alot of heat for it. Now I believe Mary when she said it made her cry. I didn't know that until the other day. In retro, I think it is positive that everyone's views have been abundantly represented. Everyone does not see life through the same eyes; different backgrounds, different priorities etc. How hot was hot today? Damn Hot! lol > I have been reading about Conan along with everyone else. I have read three > posts now and am not certain how Conan got rescued, where he is at now, and [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Thanks, > Jen Jen--a lady named Monica and some of her friends rescued Conan with Dan's help. It did not matter to anyone who got him out of there, that I know of. Some people did not want him to be adopted by Charlie Wilkes, due to some weird posts he made, so those people may not have wanted me to rescue him, since I thought Charlie would be fine. In the end, it's a win for everyone. He is now in California, and Monica has told me that several people are interested in adopting him. One I know of is local, and one is our Meghan Noecker's sister. There may be others. Monica and her friends paid his adoption fee and do not want donations toward his upkeep-- or transportation, though I am not sure he will be transported. She asked that everyone give to their favorite shelters. So--he is in safe, loving hands, being petted and pampered, and out of that shelter. I remember Monica from years back, and she appears to be very trustworthy. I have no doubt she will try her very best to find him the best home possible. Maybe ... just maybe we will get some updates from whoever does take him! I really want to see him happy and healthy and in his new home. Thanks for the up-date all! I am pleased that Conan is going to a good home. Sincerely, Jen >> I have been reading about Conan along with everyone else.

Please tell her thank you from those of us who care about this cat. >> >In the end, it's a win for everyone.

Please >tell her thank you from those of us who care about this cat. Rhonda was still up to trying. And if there wasn't a rush, then I'm sure she could have come up with a pass. I was told it was because he wouldn't be able to look out windows, and her finances aren't good. I guess I won't call it a basement again as it never occured to me that it would be perceived as windowless or small. She's got half a house. (and two huge windows). And she is poor right now, but she's only working one job right now, so that means she has the time to do a good introduction and supervision. It's over though, so no more what-ifs. I will tell my sister tomorrow to start looking elsewhere. I've been checking the local craiglist this evening. It's mostly kittens, pairs, and declawed cats. She just wants a single cat, adult, but still pretty active, and definitely with claws. Whisper is looking for a rough play kind of buddy. Booper plays, but not rough, so he doesn't like it. He'd rather just snuggle. We'll find somebody. And this story did get her interested in finding Whisper a buddy, so it will get another cat rescued.

And it's been some story, that's for sure, and who knows if we'll ever know the whole story?!?!?!?! It's a Made for TV movie in the making... Actually, it'd make a pretty good indie film, just bizarre enough to be very original and quirky. Lots of colorful characters. Some of the audience would think it was farfetched... Who can write the script? And who can market it to an indie studio? Charlie? Candace > >> >In the end, it's a win for everyone.

Yes, I argued back a bit, and after being told that I am bitter, she asked why my sister didn't email herself and argue her case. Well, I thought we were trying not to nag and and hert email sounded like a final decision to me. I guess my sister was supposed to beg after being told she wasn't good enough. I thought the refusal straightforward, didn't realize it was still part of a negotiation. It is over now. She has a lead on another cat, might see him tomorrow. I'm not too happy with my theory of what happened, so I may just buzz off for awhile. I can't stop thinking about him, and that just brings me down more. I'll let you know if my sister gets the other cat. He sounds like a good playmate for Whisper.

We've all learned a valuable lesson here. Each of us can decide for ourselves what that lesson is. My heart just aches for this cat, who has now been in a cage for five days. > Don't do that, Meghan.

Why you haven't been too long ago, pulling Megans pants down in front of everybody, WHAT WAS THIS THREAD YOU STARTED? "Megan DOES Live in a 1-bedroom Apt.

When I was younger, we moved from Seattle to Iowa and lived there for 4 years. Good jobs were scarce, so we moved back to Seattle. I will eventually get a place with some land as I want to have horses. But I will definitely stay in the same area. We do have some hot and cold, but not in the extreme.

But my edition (current) of Delorme > Street Atlas does not list "Seatac". I'll drop Delorme a note. No big deal. Everytime I place a phone order, the person questions it. They just assume I mean Seattle since everybody has heard of that one. And UPS still changes our address to Kent since our house is on the Kent route. Our house is on the very edge of Seatac, a couple blocks east, south, or west will get you into Kent or Des Moines. What's really funny is that Seatac Mall is not in Seatac.

It may well > be the "work-around" that gets you your letter/package delivered. There's never been any problem. My packages still arrive on time. We live on the edge of Seatac (yes, it really is one word). So, my packages go to the Kent Dsitribution center. And the trucke goes up the hill from Kent, past our house (in Seatac), and then turns south at the top of the hill, back into Kent. So, it is just easier for them to put our packages on the Kent truck. So, they cross out Seatac and write Kent on the label. We still have the best UPS service around. If it's not there by 9:15am, it ain't coming. Most packages arrived between 8:55 and 9:05 am. We are litterally at the beginning of their route. And no, I will not write it as two words. That is how the airport is written, not the city. I am not going to deliberately misspell my own city. Nor have I had any reason to in the last 15 years. They did? I live a few miles from that mall, I just don't care for them. What is the new name? Rhonda > What's really funny is that Seatac Mall is not in Seatac.

I keep feeling sick, and that's not helping anything. Even tonight, my sister said she was nervous about checking out the new possible cat as she is sure Conan will become available as soon as adopts a different cat. It's all my fault for suggesting Conan to her. I knew it was a long shot as there were others in line first. I should have just suggested a local cat to begin with. I just need to do something constructive. I'm going to work on my web page for Jay Jay. I have the new photos, and I want to put a special one on there before I post it.
