Cat Forum / General Topics / July 2006Kittens
Why does it seem that July is the worst time for finding homes for kittens? I had this same problem last year... Fran Tic Newport, RI Because it is kitten season, and shelters everywhere are inundated with them. Please get your cat spayed and/or neutered, and you won't have to deal with this problem any more! Why does it seem that July is the worst time for finding homes for kittens? I had this same problem last year... Fran Tic Newport, RI This is the time of year when the kittens of feral cats are at the age to be adopted, so the kitten market is flooded right now. Also this is a time of year when families typically go away on vacation, they prefer to adopt kittens in the fall or winter when they are home. Why does it seem that July is the worst time for finding homes for kittens? I had this same problem last year... Fran Tic Newport, RI This is the time of year that was the saddest part when I was with the shelters thank god we were no kill we took every kitten we could and had to take money out of our personal pockets for people to adopt kittens it was worth it. But right now at any kill shelter the kittens are lucky to last 3 days before being put to sleep F@cking humans suck >Why does it seem that July is the worst time for finding homes for kittens? I had this same problem last year... > >Fran Tic >Newport, RI Because all the peole that are not smart enough to spay or neuter their cats have to find homes for the unwanted kittens this time of year!! The correct answer here should probably be, why is it such a trechory to have a cat for a pet? If feline overpopulation is such a problem then why aren't birth control pills made for people like myself that loves his cat as an animal and not a pair of K-Mart house shoes, you know the ones that look like the stroybook characters and are all fuzzy and furry? It would seem to me that, like everything else, this argumemt is just another one of our modern day diversions from whats really going on.... Thanks for your reply!

IF there was such a pill you would have the a.shole that would think that it was wrong to give it to them no matter what it is a f@cked up situation where Humans need to grow the F@CK up and get over their bullshit > The correct answer here should probably be, why is it such a trechory to > have a cat for a pet? [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] >> their cats have to find homes for the unwanted kittens this time of >> year!! BTW- if there were such a preventative, I would be at the door of Wal-Mart the day it opened with a product for such, -I cant bring myself to pull the guts out of my queen that has the most beutiful kittens around, (and beleive me I have seen what's available on the net!), and there's not a vet in the whole of New England that will perform a tubular ligation type spaying, so here I am with a feline that won't listen to me and just wants to have kittens. I feel that her having kittens is superlative being that when I found her she was injured. > The correct answer here should probably be, why is it such a trechory to > have a cat for a pet?

Copied & pasted: --------------------------- Desexing It's amazing how many people profess to love their pets, yet do not bother to have them desexed. There are many benefits to desexing as you will see in the links below. Following is a reproduction chart. Allowing two cats and their offspring to breed for 10 years will produce 80,399,780 cats! (Statistics from American Humane Association which assumes two litters per year and 2.8 surviving kittens per litter) 1st year: 12 2nd year: 66 3rd year: 382 4th year: 2,201 5th: year: 12,680 6th year: 73,041 7th year: 420,715 8th year: 2,423,316 9th year: 13,968,290 10th year: 80,399,780 Each year tens of thousands of abandoned cats and dogs are euthanized because homes cannot be found for them. Please do your part, desex your pets.

Just because you cat has "beautiful" kittens, is not a good reason to let her keep churning them out when millions are killed each year in shelters - not to mention dumped to fend for themselves and die a horrible death, fed to pitbulls and pet snakes.... need I go on? I will classify and file you away as an ignorant moron, a group which also incudes rednecks, bigots, KKK, Islamic terrorists (or any other kind of terrorist, for that matter. Hope you enjoy your company there. > BTW- if there were such a preventative, I would be at the door of > Wal-Mart the day it opened with a product for such, -I cant bring [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] >>> their cats have to find homes for the unwanted kittens this time of >>> year!! >The correct answer here should probably be, why is it such a trechory to >have a cat for a pet?

Teachery* I spelled it incorrectly, -forgive me.... >>The correct answer here should probably be, why is it such a trechory to >>have a cat for a pet? [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] >>> their cats have to find homes for the unwanted kittens this time of >>> year!! Aaahhh....spelled wrong again...I believe you mean " treachery" >Aaahhh....spelled wrong again...I believe you mean " treachery" Well, teachery isn't a word, but I'll betcha this OP is a teacher! Disseminating wrong info left, right, and out the door! Aaahh..I beg to differ...look "treachery" up in a dictionary...(n)1. betrayal of trust 2. violation of allegiance. Yet you use a big word like disseminating...how have you never heard of "treachery?" As the "superior"( meaning that you are intelligent and can make sound decisions, unlike an animal that thinks hormonally), you have a responsibility as an owner to have your animal fixed. Here in the US the over population of cats is out of control. Please don't add to the problem, help solve it. LMAO! definately an oversight this time!
