    At least if people tell rescues that they dont want their kittens any longer, at least mum gets spayed. In this case, chances are is that mum will still not be spayed, and there will be another dumped litter in a few months time from the same place.

    Sadly, dreadful as it is, that's a relatively civilised abandonment compare to other method.

    Why cant people just get their animals neutered, no way are we a 'nation' of animal lovers.
    DONT BREED OR BUY WHILE HOMELESS ANIMALS DIE. GET YOUR ANIMALS NEUTERED TO SAVE LIVES.

    Valkirn have you seen this - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-15495259

    Funny my Lucy is a black cat too. So is my Hades and they have the nicest temperaments. The vet said it's something to do with their serotonin levels. It's the same reason why tortie''s can be a bit stroppy.

    It just amazes me that people still carry this fear of black cats. There is a woman who refuses to walk past my house if my two are in the front garden :mad:

    It's also the reason my two are not allowed out for pretty much the whole of the end of October

    Faith177 ive read a few reports like that, and have to agree alot of it is superstision (sorry cant spell),

    My Mog (and mog is his name) turned up on my windowsil one morning hes was only a youngster, and took a shine to my baby daughter (probably the smell of milk) we put posters up all over advertising him but on one came forward :(

    We have since found out from one of our neighbours he was part of a litter from a lady a few doors down who has admitted since she couldnt even give him away free :( her cat (mogs mum) was inherited pregnant, from a relative she has since been spayed.

    On a happier note my daughter and Mog i think were destined to be best buds as they share a birthday he also gets on very well with Meg our other cat lol

    Awww that is so sweet Valkin :)

    When I first got Hades the owner only lived round the corner but Hades mum visited our house every Sunday morning for months almost like she was checking she was ok.

    They still see each other when their out and about and they always stop and have a play it's lovely to see.
