How many of us own a cat?

yeah, if you want these cats to be euthanized! i already brought 3 cats at a local shelter about 2 years ago only to find out 3 days after i brought them in that they were euthanized right away. i blamed myself for a long time for what i did thinking i was doing the right thing.

if only we live in a caring world, even a $0.50 donation from one person assuming i get at least 20 to donate could already allow me to buy a big bag of cat food. so far, i had o donations. okay, i better shut the f@ck up before i say something i'll later regret....

My neighbor used to feed the strays and I'd sometimes get her a bag of food but in the end she didn't have the money and the cats kept coming back after she stopped putting out food. IDK how long you plan to feed your strays but they'll start depending on you if you do it for a long time. It's very sad that stray cats and dogs and whatever else is stray dies every day but that's the world and putting all of your money into it wont make much difference. (not saying you don't affect the lives of the cats you feed because you obviously do, i mean like big picture difference)

I don't mean to lecture or mean any offense. I think you're doing a really nice thing, it's just a very tricky situation.

Love cats in our household. My best friend has 3 cats: Pandora, Simba and Maya. We had 2 cats in our house, we still have a beautiful ginger lady puss called Bobbie which we adore, we also had a big fat black puss called Mowgli but unfortunately, he had to go to sleep in Feb 2012. The bottom pic is what we call 'SuperBob - the Superman Pose"

Cats are so fickle, but when you find a friendly one they are pretty cool. I've never had good luck with cats though, 2 got ran over, 1 ran away and 1 got her collar hung up underneath my mom's car and choked to death.

These cats are not really mine, but they were lining up for breakfast.

At the top is Goebbels, a stray I trapped and had neutered a couple of months ago.

The others are my neighbor's. He said his daughter gave them to him when she moved. They showed up when I started to feed the stray. He said they were fixed, but I think the middle cat, who I named Mama, has a fresh litter somewhere, and the two boys at the bottom, Bubba and Bashful (my names) are big enough and tame enough that I was able to check, and I don't think they are fixed, either. So now I have to convince the neighbor, with whom I have had that one conversation, to let me take them all to the clinic.

There's a grant for my ZIP code, so I can get vouchers to get them fixed and vaccinated. He might not notice if I just did it, but he'd probably notice the clipped ears.
