In which I go off on someone, possibly the wrong person.
Hey, you.
Yeah, you.
The woman in the white late model town car. The one who appears to have dropped one or more kittens on the side of the gravel road about two miles from my house.
Here’s the deal. THOSE KITTENS ARE GOING TO DIE. The soft-hearted farmer archetype with a big barn you’ve got in your head? Doesn’t exist. Farmers are much harsher about life/death decisions when it comes to animals, and they’re not going to rescue those mangy kittens and let them drink fresh milk in an idyllic cat paradise. Most of them already have more pets than they want, and they’re sick of assholes like you leaving your unwanted baby animals in ditches by their houses.
Check it out. We’re having a heat wave. It’s nearly hundred degrees out there. Those ditches are lousy with fleas and ticks. The kittens you’ve abandoned are going to die from exposure, parasites, dehydration, and starvation. It would have been better if you’d taken them to the vet and paid to have them put down, or simply snapped their little necks.
You should have gotten your cat fixed. There’s help available from the Humane Society if you were having financial problems, but looking at your car I sincerely doubt that.
No, I’m not picking your kittens up either. I already have a cat and three dogs myself… and it’s not my fucking job. It doesn’t even make me feel guilty anymore; I’ve seen so many abandoned creatures (over the years of living out at the farm) that were all left by dumbasses like you.
I do, however, hope you feel like total shit for condemning those little mammals to such a particularly shitty style of death.

that’s definitely not the wrong person. even if she’s not responsible for your life’s woes, she deserves everything you say here. and more.
but I might suggest it’s not necessarily the right place. what, you couldn’t catch up to her town car and smash into her? no, that would be the wrong method. well, yell at her a little? ok ok i can see lots of reasons not to do that but still…… you know, you could get the license # next time and report them for animal cruelty. seriously, there are actually laws about that stuff, (i always forget that a few of the laws i think should exist, really do)….. it would be fun to get her arrested or at least fined.
what a complete scum of the earth….
those people make me seethe
poor kitties. *sniff*
Can we find them a home?
that happened to Ocha, my puppy. she was abandoned like that. a friend found her and sent out an SOS… i responded and took her in.
but in the end i had to abandon her. but i did find a good home for her before i left japan…
but u already know that.
There is a special place in Hell for people like that…..
this post hurt my heart.
I sincerely hope ‘The woman in the white late model town car’ lives a miserable, pathetic life. actually, if she left kittens on the side of the road, then she already does.
there is no excuse to abandon kittens at the side of the road.
shame.
