A Kitty's Tail
Franklin , Tennessee - in the local A.M. , there's a story about the local animal shelter and their needs concerning killing unwanted kittens. Here's a story to go with that story. There's a house with an unfriendly woman in it. There is a cat and a mean ole dog living there also.
One fine day , the kitty escaped and went next door for whatever. This cat was in a horrible condition. His fur was falling off , with his ribs sticking out. And of course , dehydrated. Williamson County animal control was contacted and they did an investigation. It's no secret the dog was being mistreated also.
Anyway , the cat went to the shelter , and the person who turned in the report wanted to adopt the kitty. After going thru the hoops that the Williamson County animal control requires , a happy kitty found a new home. He is definetly a lap baby.
A week later , the woman came over and without saying anything , took the kitty while he layed outside the backdoor. This was reported to Williamson County animal control , who said there was nothing they could do. When asked about a refund or at least pay for another kitty , Tony simply said " NO ".
The next day , the dog was seen lying dead in the street. The kitty has not been seen again.
It's my opinion , Tony owes this kind person an explanation and another kitty. Either that kitty was up for adoption or it was'nt. He did say they investigated. What's going on over there ? Does animal control have any responsibility ? How many people have adopted an animal there and the animal was not up for adoption ? Too many questions and no answers.
