Stray cat.

Okay, so if you follow me on twitter or view my Flickr frequently you'll know what I'm talking about.

So there's been this very precious, sweet, innocent cat roaming around our neighborhood.



We know whose cat she is but what we didn't understand was WHY they started slowly, and slowly neglecting her. Ever since spring '09 it's became only worse. I started seeing her outside a lot more, I saw her loosing all this weight.. she used to be a really fat, chubby kitty. Even bigger than my Mr.Jingles. And she lost a lot of weight. No exaggeration.
Over the summer I wasn't as mad about this whole situation, because, you know. It's summer, the weather is nice and enjoyable. And basically anyone is able to sleep outside (humans, cats..etc). So I was okay with that. But then September came and the weather started getting unbearably cold outside. This is when I started to worry the most. I've fed her just about every day since summer time. (In spring I didn't know it was this bad.)
Now, my mom and I are the kind of people who don't ignore animals, like every single one of our neighbors (and my step dad). We're not cruel like most people. Animals can't speak, they at least need someone to speak for them. And that's why I'm so dedicated to helping animals as much as I can!! So I can't just ignore this whole situation.

Over spring or summertime (I'm not sure exactly) the same owners of this cat, had a different cat. Their other cat ended up being hit on the main road. Which is right behind our houses, it's a very busy main road. Not like a high way. But pretty busy for being in the middle of east bum fuck. They claimed they didn't even know their cat got hit, or was dead. I don't understand how they can go on without wondering what happened to it. But they evidently did.. These people are COMPLETE trash. I'm not lying at all. They're the exact definition of 'TRAILER TRASH'. Usually I don't judge others like this, but I use to know them, I still do. Everyone does. They've got names around this neighborhood, and no one likes them. Except for the little boys who sex the daughter up, and the irresponsible adults who smoke pot with the mom. Oooooops, did I say too much? My bad.

ANY WHO, my mom just went over to their house about a half an hour ago. And quite frankly I'm pretty furious now. My mom waited all spring, all summer, all autumn.. and finally she made the initiative to go talk to these people. She told me she was yelling at them at first, because just like me, she was just as angry. She carried the cat in her arms over there. (In the freezing, pouring rain. It's been raining for two days straight now.) Long story short, they said they didn't want her. That the cat was her ex - boyfriends and she was gonna give him a call. (Even though she's had this cat for 5+ years now). She said she keeps them in their indoor porch type thing. It has no heat, it just has walls and a ceiling. My mom pointed out how she had no food available for the cat.. well they said they leave some tuna out for it....... BULLLLLLSHIT! Fucking pathological liars. My mom also asked why they don't just bring it to the animal shelter... well they said it costs $100 just to bring it in.. my mom use to volunteer there. She told them how it is completely free.

As a matter of fact, just two weeks ago we brought in a stray, black, older kitten to the shelter. They of course are not adopting that cat out yet until after Halloween, because the weird sacrificial things people do Halloween night, to cats, dogs. You name it. It's horribly disgusting and I am terrified. I just want to smash in all the peoples faces, who have ever done wrong or caused harm towards an animal (or child). I can't believe people.

So anyways, yeah. My mom had calmed down from shouting after awhile.. she told me. I wasn't there. I was waiting for her to come home to see what had happened, 'cause she went without me even knowing beforehand. My sister was going to have a talk with these people too, but my mom beat her to it evidently. My sister also said she was going to adopt this cat when she was moving, but she's not planning on moving to Philly until like a year from now? So who knows. I really wish my sister would adopt this cat but she's honestly not able to.

So, well, I guess we're just gonna wait and see how everything turns out. I'm praying that they take the cat to the shelter and that the cat gets adopted by a loving family who will take great care of the kitty. I really hope so. If we didn't have a house full of 7 animals then I would immediately take this cat in, and have her as my own pet. But we honestly can't. See, if it was just my mom and I living her. I could convince her, no doubt about that. But my step dad, as it is, still feels uncomfortable about certain animals. He's a big baby and an asshole about animals most of the time. Even though he babies Rosco & Mr.J like you wouldn't believe it. So yeah. I'm just kind of venting. I know if anyone even reads this, they most likely live no where close to me.

But if you for some miraculous reason do, please adopt this cat. Look for it around the neighborhood. Do whatever you can. I hope this cat gets the most loving family ever. She really does deserve all the love. She's such a sweetheart. She's a very good girl. And I absolutely love her personality. I really wish I could adopt her. I swear, once I get my own place with Belle, I'm gonna rescue stray cats maybe adopt them out to close friends and people that I trust. Of course Belle will still be my main priority and little girl. I love her far too much to ever forget about her for another animal. ahha, you all know that.

I'm done now, I hope you took the time to read this and appreciate animals even more like I do. (: Haaave a nice day.
