Alert! For anyone thinking of adopting a pet from a rescue organization...

54. Had to sign more or less same for adopting cats

when my 16 and 22 year old cats passed/put down within six month of each other. My shelter cats have chips in them. So when we move back up North, will they be tracking them a thousand miles away? No, we cannot MOVE AWAY with them?

Inside only. In Florida, what does that mean? We have screened in lanais. Is that outdoors too? They cannot get out and wildlife (other than bugs or gekos) cannot get inside. Certainly, I would never leave them in the lanai all alone when I leave the house. Actually, most of the time when they are outside, so am I.

Vet checks. Again, what does that mean? They were spayed and neutered and given shots before adoption. However, they have not gotten "boosters" or "Wellness" exams. I don't do that for myself because I don't believe in it. I must do that for pets but not ME?

Yes, the shelfter asked all kinds of questions and I had to sign that form too. I also kept telling them that my 16 and 22 year old cats had recently died. Hello? 22 years old?????? Try to tell me that I am somehow a bad cat Mom with that.
