| 3406.1 | No!!!!!! Chair! | USCTR2::EVIOLA | | Fri Mar 09 1990 13:50 | 14 |
|
I cannot give a home or recommend one, as I have Strays to place, yet.
But do recommend to her, to place them in the Humance Societies, not to
the CHAIR!!!!!! I had to do this, to my parents cat last year, for she
was not placeable at all....even to the Humane Societies for she was
not trustworthy and old.
I still feel so bad!!!!!!!!!!! My parents thought to even keep her in
their HOme for the Elderly, but could not risk it. Good luck in any
placement, but may the LAST resort be, a Humane Society.

Is the Humane Society the same as the Animal Rescue league? Someone
else in my office mentioned them.

| 3406.3 | STOP!.....Read the cat/condo battle note first! | BOOVX2::MANDILE | | Fri Mar 09 1990 14:36 | 11 |
| There is another note not too far back about a cat/condo battle
that has some good points. If you had your pets BEFORE the
rule was changed, you shouldn't have to get rid of your cats.
Also, if they are indoor only cats, than they are considered
personal property. I urge you to read the other note & replys
as there may be a way for you to keep your cats. And contact
a lawyer. The advice is very good. I had to take a kitten
that I knew was going to be put down to the shelter. If I
had an option to fight, I would have jumped at it.

| 3406.5 | Clawless????? Not good. | CGVAX2::LANDRY | Closer to the Heart | Fri Mar 09 1990 14:58 | 11 |
| Especially since they have no front claws - the chances of a shelter
putting them down is very good - unless of course you go to a no-kill
shelter. But even that isn't promising cuz alot of them are turning
cats away.
I feel as .-1 feels - try to fight this!
Good Luck to your friend!

| 3406.6 | Humane Societies.... | USCTR2::EVIOLA | | Fri Mar 09 1990 15:51 | 17 |
| Yes,,,,,,,,,,reading the ones before me, do try and fight it being
totally indoor cats. Declawed, is tough, and yes the Humane Societies
are pretty full. THEY DO NOT PUT THEM TO SLEEP and always ask if you
do go this route.
There is also CAT-NIPS kennels is Berlin,MA (yellow pages) in which
they shelter (CAT ONLY) for people who go on vacation. They will keep
for $6/per day (an expensive resort, but.....) you kitties and
advertise them for you. Just trying to help,,,,,,,,,,,,,call and do
talk to a lawyer. Search she should, for anything before she gives the
chair, which is not necessary.........
Scruffy.......prays for them

| I agree about the condo rules. If she owns the condo then she can
not be forced to give up her cats if they were allowed under the
previous rules. It is illegal.
re: Humane societies - check with each shelter individually. Some
organizations are no-kill some aren't. Also, kitten season is just
beginning so the shelters will be full or will be putting alot of
cats to sleep.

| 3406.8 | DON'T GIVE UP THE SHIP! | MSBIS1::BAUCAGE | | Mon Mar 12 1990 13:41 | 19 |
| I am the originator odf 3397 and my heart goes out to you.
Please don't give up without a fight - grab whatever piece
of info. or tool you can find to stop these condo %V&*^%#.
You can call me at 293-5432 or send a message if you need
support. I know what I am going through and it doesn't
feel good. It's like asking me to get rid of half my heart.
No way - not if I can help it. If we continue on giving in
to these rules imposed by animal haters, we might as well
forget about fighting for animal causes. Doris Day might
as well go to sleep instead of fighting Washington to prevent
animals from being used to test chemicals, etc.
Condo's are a fairly new commodity, and we are still new on how
they should be controlled. Please, please, let's not go to
sleep on this one.

Hi:
Attached is a memo I just received from the owner of the
cats. I sent her all your comments. Thanks.
Jim F.
====================================================================
Guys, thanks for all your help. I spoke to a lawyer and he felt that
I should be able to keep two of the cats as I had them before the rules
were made, but that as for now the ball was in the court of the
condo assn. so I have decided to keep all three of them until I hear
further from the assn.
Once again, thanks for your help. Agatha, Amanda and Cobalt and I
thank you.

| That's good news!! IF things get Funky around there remember
that a temporary fosterhome until things calm down again is
always an option.
