Our dear sister sent this to me as she wasn't sure if it should be posted after I posted the animal humour. As I finished reading this, I had tears running down my cheeks, what I wouldn't give to get a hold of this bitch in DK's post and throttle her til her neck snapped!! (is the biker bitch coming out of me or what?)

Here is her post...who is with me in hunting down this bitch?!?

I didn't have the heart after reading the funny thing about the dogs and cats....LOL.

Adoption day tragedy

I sorry Dear Friends that I haven't been around, but I have been so very depressed that I went off my diet for two days.

We had an adoption day for the animal rescue, one of our little kittens, Einstein went to the adoption. I felt that he was a little to small but he was an eight week kitten the runt of the litter. We have a vet who works with us and does all of the spaying and neutering. He was deemed healthy for the adoption.

This lady (AN ADULT!!!!!) came over to look over our kittens. She clamed that she raised cats. She wanted to hold Einstein and immediately went into blasting us with how little he was and that we weren't feeding him the right food and that he couldn't have been an eight week kitten, and the whole time she was shaking him!

Both Allison and myself are guilty of not taking him away from her, but we were trying to not make a scene at a public building, so we could go back for more adoptions was in the back of our minds. Little Einstein was a playful and healthy kitten when I first saw him for the day, and I decided to take him home to foster along with another kitten. When she handed him back and I put him in the cage he moved more slowly then he had that morning and was stumbling around. As the day went on he got more slow and lathargecic (can't spell). I took him and another kitten home for the day. Einstein just kept getting wores. I finially took him to the rescue ranch and had Sammi and her hubby look him over. Her hubby is an EMT. I know thats for humans, but alot of the things that affect humans affect aniamls the same way. He went down hill fast going into shock and all but died in my arms. Sammi wouldn't let me hold him. She said it was for the best and sent me home. It turned out that Einstein died of shaken baby syndrone. Every one at the store where we did the adoption cried for little Einstein and the manager has taken the description of the woman and had it posted in all of the pet stores in the county.

Now lets face it, no adoption ageny unless it is total run and funded by the state can afford to handle the amount of animals that come through any county rescue unit, and ours is no exception. What funds aren't provided to us from grants, which we don't get alot of, comes from fund raiser like our Bow Wow Meow Luau, and the golf tournement. We also have a rescue ranch but even that is over flowing with kittens, cats, dogs, and puppies.

I am doing better and Olie watched over me all weekend. I guess he was really concerned because usually when I bring new little kittens into the house he wants no part of them and tends to stay outside and runs away if I try to grab him. Olie will play with older kittens. I guess he thinks he's the only one who can teach them how to play right.

I'm going to take the next couple of days and just crash, but I should be back by then.

A very humbled puma,

In Memory of little Einstein

Whose life was too short upon

Our Mother.

May you rest in Peace young

Brother.

THE RAINBOW BRIDGE

inspired by a Norse legend

By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.
Where the friends of man and woman do run,
When their time on earth is over and done.
For here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.

On this golden land, they wait and they play,
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.
No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.

They romp through the grass, without even a care,
Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.
All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,
Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.
For just at that instant, their eyes have met;
Together again, both person and pet.

So they run to each other, these friends from long past,
The time of their parting is over at last.
The sadness they felt while they were apart,
Has turned into joy once more in each heart.
They embrace with a love that will last forever,
And then, side-by-side, they cross over�?together.

My dear sister Witchway, thankyou so much for you kind and generous posting on Einsteins behalf, it was so sweet of you. I'm doing much better, I decided to foster another kitten in his sted to honor his memory instead of drawing into a corner, and I recovered quicker because of this. I had so wierd things happen around the house shortly after. I need to get my head around them then I'll tell you around them, but I do feel that my spirit sister totem may have rubbed my side because I felt a pressure on my leg with a real warm feeling inside. It was a wonderful feeling. Thank you again.

Your ever smiling puma,

What a sad story! I am a cat lover too and it is very upsetting to hear that someone could be SOOOOOOOOOOOO cruel to such a little one. The woman must have had REAL problems to be that way. The thing I always find tough is: How do I react to someone so obviously unloving?! Anger is natural, but I find it only hurts me in the end - people like Her don't seem to care or even HEAR what they've done wrong! And then, I am reminded of teachings that ask me to pray for these people or to go further and reach out to them. BUT,,,how can I reach out to someone like that? I guess I have a lot to learn, yet.

I hope you are feeling better now, Puma. I hope you realize that the Creator is caring for Einstein and that maybe the Creator had a plan - I'm not sure. I know everything happens for a reason, but I wish I could fathom out what I could learn from something like this.

Thank you Cystal_singer, I do so much appreciate your kind words. A friend of mine from another site just said, that he got adopted by the best and will lack for nothing. It gave me a lot to think about as do your words. It's hard sometimes to understand the grand shem of things, but thank you again for your kind words.

This is so Sad!! I do appologise for answering this so late, but I am catching up on posts from when I was gone on vacation and just came across this.

I just get so disgusted with how some people treat animals!! I am a animal lover and have raised Manx cats... and Never in my life would ever think of doing such a thing to an infant kitten... it is outrageous!

The trubute to Einstein is just beautiful!

Just know he is with Creator and playing away now.
