Awe Muddy that is awful. I am so sorry for your sister and for the kitties. It's like a sucky situation.
This is just sad. :sad:

Maybe they might look around and see if any of the pet stores would take them or a no kill shelter, or I know at least the petco in our area has a program they work with for cats and they take them.

I happen to have a story of heartbreak and guilt from this very day if anyone feels like reading a bit.

One of my sister's cats died today. As anyone who loves cats knows, that is heartbreaking.

There is more to it though. When my sister moved in with her husband-to-be, they had 2 cats each. As can happen, the cats did not all get along with each other. A couple of the cats in particular started to pee all around the house.

Well that sucks. You can't have that. So those cats ended up having to be isolated in the basement a lot of the time. They didn't like it but they are cats and they are ruled by instincts and you can't just sit them down and explain how their actions have led to the crappy circumstance.

Unhappy cats. They still got attention but their world had shrunk drastically.

And then my sister got pregnant and along came Gamelive Nephew Andrew, so the isolation of the cats became even more strict. You definitely don't want the baby rolling around in cat pee.

They did what they could. They tried to find alternate homes for the cats. They asked me to take one and I declined (due in large part, topically enough, to the heartbreak associated with my own late cat, Mudcat). They ended up simply making the basement as comfortable as they could for the cats.

But with the new baby, the cats were neglected more and more. They were fed and things were kept clean no doubt, but there was not nearly as much love for them. And understand, these were cats that were used to being dearly dearly loved.

My sister is just one person - same with the husband - they had big new responsibilities and of course limitations. There is only so much time. The cats were the odd man out.

The cat that died today was the second one that finally just stopped eating and then died. It was not old or sick. It just stopped eating and died.

It is impossible not to have the phrase died of a broken heart come to mind.



Can you imagine the guilt and heartbreak? Ugh.

Probably had cancer or something. Animals stop eating and die all the time. Not because of heartbreak though.

They explored all options and did the best they could. They did find a home for one. Giving away a cat that has trusted you their whole life is a whole other form of heartbreak, but anyway she died a while ago. She was older.

There is just one cat left now so they are planning to let her basically roam free around the house, hoping she won't pee outside the litterbox any more now that there are no more territorial issues.

I hate to say it but I think it could still be a problem. But we'll see.

we had promise not to cry
her: forgive me
this may be the last time we sit to have a cafe together
this may be the last time we see each other
so let's try to be good please
I want to take the memory of a smile
please don't cry anymore

remember that afternoon we met
it was very beautiful to get to know you
and it was very beautiful everything between us but now it's gone
now it's necessary to separate
let's not continue harming each other
we were becoming a routine and love, love is something else
love you have to feed it everyday with those small things we already lost

your cafe is getting cold
no one have to feel guilty here
people are looking, please, don't cry anymore
her: i love you

her: i love you
no
our thing is a routine and love is something else
now I will go
it's the best for both of us
I wish you the best
may you be very happy

adios
her: i love you
her: i love you
adios
ciao
