No way! That is not life! You're very wrong about both the cats and people.
These cats are housenroken for the most part, are healthy and beautiful... they just don't know what the hell we are. The cats do not run from us in fear once we get them out. They might hide under the toilet or cowar when we go to touch them, but they are yet to try to kill or even hurt us or the children they've been around. You make these cats out to be monsters and that's just ridiculous. I apologize for your experience, but I am not one to bullshit people like that woman did you and you are yet to see these cats or the place they are coming from. The pictures are nothing compared to the house and we are pretty damn thankful that these cats are as good as they are after coming from a place like this!
I think you also under estimate people or at least I hope so. We're working on making these cats "ready made" and "perfect." We're spaying and neutering, testing them, deflea, handling them constandly, hell, going over to that house all the time has made the cats more socialized. Many wonderful people have emerged to offer donations and some have even offered their homes and adopted. The people you described are not people that deserve pets. People that deserve pets love, whatever animal they get, because it is their animal. Besides, no rescue should adopt animals out as decoration and that is how some see purebred, pretty ones, kittens, etc.
Did you look at what you wrote? In several sentences you were able to make my cats and people out to be absolutely horrible monsters. I take offense to that. I have my scratchs from putting these cats into a carrier to rescue (and they have never seen a carrier before), have the odor trapped in my new car, raced around the house trying to get one of these babies, removed that collar from Angel which we had to fight both her and the collar to get it off, heard the stories of the massive Kong taking adventures outside of Shea's bathroom when she wasn't home, how he and Flinn cuddle up to their new foster mom at night and have had cats dash past my head in fear wondering what the hell Shea & I are. Two of these cats running were once Kong & Flinn and they are exceptional cats now. These cats didn't choose to be put in that situation and they are obviously thankful by their personalities when we take them out and start to work with them. Please, do not say such degrating things about my cats until you have walked in my shoes.
