Hopefully, the furbabies will all go to healthy, LOVING homes.

I wish that records could be kept to identify bad/unstable adopters. Poor furbabies.

Agree there is a special place in hell for animal abusers.  Apparently before DH married NPD BM, she had some guinea pigs she kept in a hutch and allowed them to die through hunger and thirst because she forgot to feed them.  It's a good job I wasn't around in those days as I would have knocked her head off.  What I don't really understand is how DH went on to marry her. DH and I have a 10 yr old dog, whom we absolutely adore, had her since she was a pup, I describe my role in life now as "dog servant".  I spend a lot of my day taking her for walks and suchlike.  

The poor cat in the OP, is just reflecting its vile owner's rotten behaviour, poor thing. It's not the animals that need medicated, it's her. 

B*itch should burn....I have two huntings dogs/high energy.  They get most of the longer excercise on weekends, and week days they'll get walks and free reighn of a decently sized fenced yard and training tricks/obedience in evenings.  During summer with longer light hours they get more spread out. We also take them to a field with 200 acres 1 x week to practice with quail for hunt tests during Sep-Mar time frames.  We also have an elementary school yard we take them to that has 2-3 acres both open and wooded we take them off leash several times a week-and dog park a few times a month.

They need it.  SHE'S chemically imbalanced...the poor dog is bored.  That said, regardless of amount of excercise, these dogs can be incredibly destructive when younger, chewing anything from shoes to your siding and drywall, glasses, etc etc....I've accepted it...my home reflects it....my fake leather couches look like crap....can't invest in another set yet, when I do expensive hold up leather lol

She's a mess.

I have a dog with anxiety... To the point the vet suggested I medicate him... But we're working on it slowly and seeing progress... Dogs don't just need meds and more than an unruly child does...  They need love and training and time!!!  I have a chewer, she has TONS of stuff to chew on and still finds stuff that isn't hers (curious pupper). But that just means she needs more training and time! Not meds!  There have been improvements, but if I was a lazy POS like your BM she'd probably have eaten the house.  If she can't handle that baby, it needs a new, and happier, home.

At least the cat has a shot of getting away from that b****.

Meth Mouth considers herself an "animal rescuer" of sorts. She found a cat that got hit by a car and kept it in the bathroom to try and "nurse it back to health" because she has a nursing background...she was a CNA for a brief period of 6 months, so she knows how to take a temp and blood pressure..eye roll.

Anywho I guess the poor inured cat was slowly dying but Meth Mouth was determined that she could save it...finally Grand Hag took it to the vet who had to put it down since it was past being saved. But Spawn would brag to us just how much Meth Mouth did for that poor kitty to save it.

These are just one of the many reasons I abhor Meth Mouth.

the gir n clan had either ran away, were given away after a few weeks or died prematurely.   SD is an animal torturee.  The Gir is the same way... wanting to medicate even though the pets (and skids) get no exercise, proper diet nor training.
