They took my cats too!” Letter to the Editor


They took my cats too!” Letter to the Editor

5Share
3-6-12 **Lettr to the Editor**
I’m not sure where to begin, because everyday has been a nightmare for me. After reeling from what PETA and the ASPCA did to the Caboodle Ranch, I was told that my own family cats would be taken as well because they were on Craig’s property. I practically fainted at the words. Then I was “assured” both by the Sheriff’s dept and ASPCA that ‘we won’t take your cats’ and “you didn’t do anything wrong’. Somewhat comforted by their words, a mere 2 days went by when I was woken by pounding on my door at 8am, still in bed, still in my night gown, when the sheriff’s officers came in with a search warrant and authority to seize my family cats. They said I had to leave my home while they did this. My sister was with me and we stood their in shock in our night gowns demanding “WHY?!” and all we got was “because we have a warrant that says so.
Numb and in shock we put clothes on and left my house. A house that I have barely moved into 2 weeks ago, from North Carolina. We drove like zombies to a parking lot and I fell apart. My cats were just waking up, playing, eating their crunchers, perfectly happy and content when these strangers came in to take them away. When we came back several hours later, I collapsed on the floor. I could not stop crying. I kept seeing all their sweet trusting faces and now there was nothingness, emptiness and loss. There was no one to call, no one to help me.
My friend Jan came to be with me as well for support and to try and sort thing out. We called TV stations, newspapers etc. Some posted our story some not. None made a difference. Yesterday was the hearing for Caboodle Ranch where we were going to demand the return of the cats and property seized. We had to post pone it because the prosecutor had just then supplied the attorney with the affidavit that supports the warrant for Craig’s charges. I was told by the caboodle attorney (who does not represent me) that I had to go to the Sheriff’s dept to demand my cats and laptop back.
My sister and I did so and was met by the lieutenant and the states attorney. The state attorney was extremely angry with me for some reason and told me “You are not getting your cats back for a very long time, they are state evidence!”. I was shocked and said that they were my personal family pets! But she refused to hear me and demanded we leave and never come back. I have records from my own vet in North Carolina with their names on it and my NC address proving they are MINE.
I collapsed again outside in my sisters arms. I haven’t been able to eat or sleep or concentrate. They keep telling me “you’ve done nothing wrong” and I haven’t been charged with anything, yet they are allowed to destroy my only joy in life and take them away and never say anything to me about them. Now I need an attorney. I need someone to fight for me and get my family of cats home to me where they belong. Never in all my life would I have thought anyone in any county could do this to someone just because they feel like it. To see my name on a search warrant was devastating enough, I hadn’t even been in the state for 2 weeks when all this happened so how is this possible? No one will answer me. And to take away the very reason I have any joy at all away from me…
If anyone can help me, I need a lawyer who will bring my cats back to me immediately. One who can either work pro bono or allow me to make payments. I am pleading with everyone. This is so wrong and can happen to anyone. The only reason they took my precious cats is because I worked for Caboodle Ranch, from out of state no less. There is NO other reason….

This should not be allowed! If she can prove which ones are hers they should not be taken. She needs a great attorney.

Second Chance Sunday

Dear Kenny,

Dolce first came to the attention of his would-be rescuers when his photo was posted on the L.A. Animal Services Facebook page. This little Chihuahua and Pomeranian mix had a fractured jaw that had to be taped shut to keep it from hanging down. The photo of this helpless dog generated a lot of attention on Facebook and moved someone to notify the La Dolce Vita Animal Rescue Foundation.


The foundation took Dolce in and had him immediately seen by a vet. He had been physically and emotionally neglected and had severe dental issues and a matted coat. His jaw was broken in two places and required surgery and pins to stabilize it while he healed.

Dolce was extremely withdrawn and lacked any kind of emotion when he was first brought in. He wouldn't make eye contact with anyone, but astonishingly, despite his abusive past he was neither fearful nor aggressive.

It took some time and a lot of love and care, but eventually Dolce started to come out of his shell. The first time he wagged his tail, the rescuers were almost brought to tears. Today, Dolce is full of joy and he loves to play with other dogs and to cuddle with people. He has a huge heart despite his small size.

American Humane Association's Second Chance® Fundcontributed to Dolce's care and future by donating much needed funds.

After all he's been through, doesn't Dolce deserve a second chance for "a sweet life"?

Please donate today, so we can continue to give second chances to other victims of cruelty, like Dolce.

Thank you so much for your continued support!
