So this is why today almost sucked so hard I wanted to crawl under a rock and stay there forever:
The kittens were left at the vet's yesterday for evaluating, spaying and neutering, and possibly going directly to a shelter. Today I asked mom if the vet called and she goes "Yea. They have to be put down."
Cue me going "WHAT THE HELL!?" because Batman was doing so good, letting himself be pet and held and playing and coming in to say hello and all around learning how to fit in x.x I was so mad. And upset of course, I went in my rom to get dressed and started crying. But man so mad.
I said I was going to check the mail. The vet's is right across from the post office so mom told me if Batman was still alive, we could take him back and continue to work with him. I went to the post office first because I was terrified of what would be at the vet's.
I went over there though, knocked, and she told me they were still alive ;___; I was like "OMG" and she asked if I'd like to see them, to which I was like "I WANT TO BRING BATMAN HOME! D:"
Turned out they didn't really want to put either of them down and were waiting til the very very end of the day. Even then they still were hoping something would happen for Batman because he was more socialable and calm than his sister. I went in to see him in his cage and he started purring ;_; And then he put out his paw so I put in my finger and held hands with him. Uuuugh. Man. I called mom from there and after talking to the vet she said she would check him tomorrow, neuter him and then send him home with me so we could continue to foster him and get him used to things.Thank God, he was doing so good, coming in and letting me pet him and everything.
Rogue, his sister..she...still has (had? Ugh) to be put down. It...makes me really sad, but it's countered by the fact that I'm really happy about Batman. I don't know...I feel guilty about Rogue but I dunno...she wouldn't even come out of the box we brought her in, she didn't come out into the cage even though no one was around, she's just too scared and feral. She was getting more scared of us. She was really cute but...you couldn't get near her.
*Sigh* I dunno. Like I said, at least we get to save Batman and I'm happy about that.
All of this made me think about people who don't spay and neuter their pets and let this shit happen. Boy. Those people just need to be beaten with a fucking bat I swear.
