SafeHaven is mad at me, for asking who was going to foster them, if it was a good place. The first name of the fosterer person was the same as the first name of the person who contacted me and Nick, about a bunch of cats she wanted us "to come take care of trapping like the FCCO did before", which confused both of us. Turns out Sharon, another trapper, had trapped there before. Nick did call the woman and they brought in four tame ones, no ferals, so it is likely not even the same person, just had the same first name. But I had to ask, if it was the same person. Stupid of me.
Anyhow, I shouldn't have asked, because now they're mad at me, and told me to go pick up the three kittens. They're upset too about me being so concerned that they'll be fixed before adoption.
I can't say anything right or question anything. I get questioned all the time however. I understand I am on the outside of the accepted groups in this area. But there is nothing wrong with wanting those kittens fixed before adoption and wanting to know if the fosterer is a good one. Fuck it all anyhow.
I am a Cat Woman. My self-appointed mission in life is to save the feline world! To accomplish this mission, I get cats fixed. Perhaps my mission might be slightly delusional. This blog is a mishmash of wishful thinking, rants, experiences as I remember them and of course, cat stories and cat photos. I have a nonprofit now, to help keep the cats here cared for and to fix community cats. Happy Cat Club formed in 2015. Currently, we are on a mission to fix 10,000 cats.

hey Jody - you need to stop the should haves and shouldn't haves...you have every right to ask those questions - you are handing LIFE to these people - you have every right to know that the proper procedures will be followed in caring for those lives. You are so good with putting things in words - have you thought about writing a letter to safehaven and letting them know your concerns and why they are valid? Perhaps they will respond better to a neutral peice of paper than a live person.
