I think that would be a good idea too, I think some people just don't realise what could happen when they give kittens away to 'good homes'.

Please spay your cat

I'm sitting her blubbing now as well  :shy:

Sad as it may be, it does go on, and if words like that can make just one owner rethink their actions, then it has to be worthwhile.

so sad

it just reinforces the need for spaying and neutering.
it's so unfair on the poor cats who have no choice but to continually give birth and raise litter upon litter of kittens.

I cannot deny that a cat lover and his cat have a master/slave relationship. The cat is the master.

That made me cry too, but thanks for posting it, as you say, good to show to everyone who advertises kittens "free".

I know, it won't apply to most but theres a chance it could make a difference with someone. Maybe I should start emailing it to people advertising free kittens..

Made me cry, but I thought that it was worth posting if it helped people to think about what might happen to 'free to good home kittens' and kittens advertised on freeads/in papers.

Found this - it made me sad, probably because its far too easy to imagine this kind of thing happening.

I apologise if I'm not meant to post links, just let me know and I'll change it.
