My Heart Aches
January 26th 2012 21:00
I feel numb inside. I miss my boys so much. I think about them all the time, wishing I could bury my face in their fur and inhale their tuna scent. I wish I could touch them again and feel their paws on me and be able to sniff their fishy breath. How long will these feelings last?
In a way, it would have been easier if they had died; at least there would be some closure. But knowing they’re alive and living at an unknown location with an unknown woman…I try to console myself by telling myself at leas they’ve gone to a good home and hopefully their new parent can give them better care than Brett did but still, it hurts not being able to see them again.
I need to get closure but I don’t know how. I’m going to have to ask my psychologist friend for advice.

Ask can they find other cats for the lady who has taken them, also ask if you can go and see her and tell her your story and the affection you have for these very special boys who were so much part of your life.
Be persistent, whether or not Brett paid the lady, they had no right to just give them away like that, they should have handed them back to Brett and said they could not stay as he was not paying for their board, and you would then have had the opportunity to take on the cats yourself.
Be polite but be very firm, tell the vet she did the wrong thing, also tell Brett and ask him to be stronger with the vet and see what together you can do to make those boys your own, if necessary pay some money but only if you get the cats, after all if you took cats from a refuge you would be expected to pay something.
I am suspicious of the vet's claims that she found someone willing to take both the boys on, ask that the vet tell the lady that their original owner wants them back and that she really has only been a carer.
Be persistent and ask Brett, very strongly, to back you up. If the new owner knows more of your history with the cats she may feel some compassion and relinquish them in favour of some other cat/s who need homes.
Good luck, I'll be thinking of you.

Thanks for your advice. Brett had told me he had handed them over to her so it's not as if Anastasia did go behind his back which is going to make it very difficult for me to try to get them back. On the other hand, if there was some way I could get them back, of course I would pay Anastasia. I would not expect to get them for free, after all the attention she has given them.
I will have to think about what to do next. I will keep you posted and thanks for taking the time to comment on my post
