Poor little things!

What is wrong with some people. I hope they find them and prosecute (not that it will be worth it). :mad:

It has been so hot here this week and the buses have been bad enough for humans but 6 little kittens

At least they were saved,at ASSISI where I volunteer,they have had some really horrific cases,like the kitten that was sexually assaulted (now rehomed & thriving well in a loving home) and only a few weeks ago,one of the girls found a dog chained to her garden fence by it's owner with a note saying '"rehome it!"..

little kittens are so pretty and soft, how could you not feel affection for them on sight ? Why didn't the owner have the mother cat spayed anywayif they knew they wouldn't want to keep any kittens ? People acquire pets without thinking through the considerable costs and time needed to care for them.

It's very sad that this still happens. I'm currently fostering a mum with 5 kittens who were abandoned when the kits were a week old. The mum had obviously been cared for as she was in a very healthy condition, but I'm guessing the owners didn't want her with kittens (why people can't neuter their animals if they don't want more I don't know).
Mum is an absolute sweetheart and so good with her kits who are a joy to watch/be with.
I just couldn't ever imagine abandoning something so helpless and adorable, I just wish these people could be found and as you say, prosecuted.

I keep meaning to ask you, Spike, why do you bring pets over to Britain? Most resuces here have massive waiting lists as it is - I read of one with 400 waiting to come in the other day. :eek:
