Killing the innocent and hurting my ex
It’s weird how even though I’m not working there anymore, I still feel involved with work and people still come to me asking questions about how things are supposed to be. A woman who is a regular at the vet, brought a cat in about 2 weeks ago because it had bit her while she slept. She was afraid it had rabies and wanted us to do a rabies test. For those that don’t know, rabies tests require you not only to kill the animal, but to chop its head off. Well, let me tell you, this cat is the most gorgeous cat I have -ever- seen. That’s not an exaggeration. Everyone at work fell in love with the cat, so we convinced the owner to let us quarantine the cat for 10 days to see if it was in fact, infected with rabies. 10 days ended Sunday, and the cat is fine. We played with the cat the entire time and it never once showed any sign of aggression. A couple from work, who are hardcore animal lovers, decided they wanted to adopt the cat. They would definitely provide it with a good home.
Well now I’m hearing from work that the woman is demanding to come in and have the cat put down today, and she wants to be present, and take the body home. Her reasoning is “Well I just can’t sleep thinking he might bite someone else. And I don’t know if he’ll be abused.” So she’d rather just kill the fucking cat instead? I’m trying to figure out any loophole I can to stop this cat from dying. It’s ridiculous, cruel, and childish. I think the woman just doesn’t want anyone else to have the cat, but isn’t willing to keep the cat herself. It’s really pathetic. I’m so pissed.
I’m going to call the head doctor tonight and leave a message on his voicemail about me wanting my job back, since he owns the hospital. I have to figure out what it is exactly I want to say.
Ex #4 and I seem to be doing okay. Better anyways. Sometimes he does things I don’t quite understand, but I guess I’m never really going to, so I’m just not going to bother. I’m tired of always putting forth the effort only to end up nowhere or arguing or being blamed for something. I’m content with our relationship when things aren’t always so damn complicated.
Apparently “Ex #1″ went to talk to my cousin Stephanie for a little bit yesterday. She said he’s really sounding depressed which bothers me. I hate the fact that I’m hurting him, but I really don’t have a choice you know? I want a divorce, and he doesn’t. I wanted a divorce long before Ex #4 and I ever met. I just don’t know how to stop this from hurting him. What am I supposed to do? Maybe I should just sit down and have a heart to heart with him.

Oh man - that poor cat. Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with people like that. I rescued my cat from a centre. He’s beautiful, sometimes I don’t understand how people can be so heartless.

It’s really sweet that you’re trying to help save that cat. I agree that it is very childish to kill a healthy animal when someone wants to give it a loving home. Good luck!
