Neighbours?

Same neighbour that got my very elderly cat put down. Cat had never put
her
foot outside for years, 25 yrs old. but when she was outside looking
for me when I got hospital emergency admission she was collected up by
someone passing by, put down before I could rescue her.
I was gutted.
There's a law against that.


Too late. Already done, thanks to the RSPCA.


Maybe for the cat, but if the deed wasn't too long ago, It's not too late
to take action against the RSPCA.

Officious lot of %$£&!s need keeping in line

I was thrilled when I found out after a week out for me in hospital she'd
been taken to a vet, I expected to collect her from there and bring her
home.
No.
The RSPCA pay for a vet to see her and because she is old they put her
down, despite my own vet seeing her all the time and she is being
treated.
This is not the first time I've had issues with the RSPCA.
My goats - well, if you see one limping -do help me to catch it, RSPCA!


Has the RSPCA shooting season opened yet?

I believe you can't hunt them with hounds now.


The vet they took her to defends his position. Of course he does, he is paid
by them.
She was dehydryated - of course she was - she'd been shut out of my house by
my neighbour unable to get to her rehydration fluid which she needed as she
had kidney problems.
It's pointless to take action against the RSPCA now, a year later but I
agree with my friend who says "I would not give the RSPCA the drippings of
my nose"

I probably should have had her microchipped but I hadn't as she never went
out for years until then, even so it would not have helped, I was not
contactable, I was in hospital and by the time I got out it was too late.
My younger cat is microchipped but it will not work for him either in those
circumstances.
