Little lost kitten and irresponsible owner

There is nothing you can do now, just learn never to release an animal unless you have all the information necessary to make you feel good about what you are doing.
Most of us have had to learn from similar experiences. Blessings

sHE WAS VERY RUDE & I'M SORRY U HAD TO let the poor little thing go w/her. That was very kind to do what u did & i know the kitty would have been better off w/u & as a playmate for your little girl. People like that don't need pets.

Well i would also be worried about the kitten as well.I think maybe the person who came to collect the cat is one of those people who do not want the kitten and yet do not want anyone else to have the kitten as well.You could put posters up asking who the owner is of the kitten as well as see if you spot the kitten out and about.

I DESPISE PEOPLE LIKE THAT!!! There's not much you can do. Since your neighbor has seen that poor baby again, I do believe I'd walk home the same way again...keeping my eyes open for him. If I found him once again, I'd pick him up & take him home with me & NOT report him as found again. My daughter would have a loving playmate!!! My thinking....he may have slipped out once, but I doubt if he'd do it twice. From what you're saying, she's NOT much of an owner!!! I hope you find him & give him a good home!!!

i have had experiences finding cats on the side of the road at a young age but both of them were in such bad shape that i just took them in and made sure that they lived as the owners obviously didn't care if there had ever been any. they were both really people friendly so i think there had. but if that woman hadn't come to the door i would never have let her have him until i spoke to her in person and i definitely agree if you find him again don't give him back she obviously doesn't give a rats patootie for the cute little fuzzball. my cats run around outside without collars but we live out in the woods so they don't venture out to the road because the yard is big enough for them to live in and enjoy life.

That is so sad for the little kitten. We've always been pet lovers and pet owners, but none of our dogs are microchipped. They stay inside all the time so I really didn't see the point in them. We've also been the family that will let a stray into our yard while we try to find the owner. Whenever we've done this, if people call us to say it is their dog, we will ask them to describe the dog so that it doesn't end up in the wrong hands.
I can't say that I've always been a big cat lover, but we are considering adding one to our family as soon as we find the right cat for us.

It doesn't sound like she was the owner of that kitten. She probably just wanted a free kitten and thought that was the easy way to get one. I hope the kitten that lady saw last night was not the same kitten that you had released to those people. If so, that is really sad. Have you walked back through there again to see if you could see it anywhere?

it's times like this when you feel sorry for animals, when people think their cute while their young and then dump them later on. we've made feral cats pets over the yrs, my cat even lives at my mums cause she'll get killed if she lived with me, cause of the boss's dogs (one will chase to kill)

You did the right thing the first time even though it didn't turn out the way you had hoped. I'm sure that kitten will be out and about again and you will have another opportunity to do another right thing.;) I got one of the best kitties I've ever had just that very way, a stray that followed my and my small daughter. We took it home and bathed and fed it and that poor scrawny flea infested kitten with matted filthy fur turned out to be the most beautiful tortie cat with the sweetest most loving disposition EVER. I never worried at all about if it had another home because it was in such bad shape that if it did, it needed rescuing from that home as much as the streets! So I didn't even try to find an owner for that kitten.

I've had numerous animals come by for a short visit and spend a day or two until I could find their worried owners and they were always so grateful to get their babies back. I can't imagine being so cold about it the way those people were with you and still go pick the kitten up....seems like they wouldn't even bother. Makes you wonder if they even know it's gone again. I hope you find it again and they never do!;)

Firstly I would say that you have such a kind heart to nourish and let the kitten in your home even if it is not yours.

Last year I also adopted a stray kitten. It was crying in the grass and I was worried that a snake might come and eat it. So I decided to take the kitten home (by the way she likes hotdogs). No one claimed her though I have informed our community about the lost kitten and that the owner can pick her up in my place but alas no owner came. I am happy to have adopted that kitten unfortunately she got lost again and I couldn't find her.

For the kitten you found I hope that next time you come across it I hope you could find it in your heart to keep it for keeps as the owner just let the kitten stray and seems to not realize that her kitten was lost again. I could just imagine how she treats the kitten in her home. Maybe the reason why the kitten keeps running away is because she is an abused kitty and is trying to look for a loving home.
