People are dillusional if they think one person can adequately care for that many cats.... certainly anyone in rescue knows that clearly. A successful large scale operation would look like Cat House on the Kings. Plenty of staff, adoptions, large scale open houses, etc, etc. Caboodle had NONE of that. He's a hoarder masquerading as a rescuer....and all of those cute little houses are just fluff. Anyone can take a still life moment and claim that it is heaven.Maine Kittieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05813501266938509291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-81347759532154642042012-03-11T15:39:01.647-04:002012-03-11T15:39:01.647-04:00This is the first I had heard of this story, I agr...This is the first I had heard of this story, I agree the only way to stop all these cats being unwanted and unhomed is to neuter.<br /> A friend of mine recently told me she lets all cats she owns have one litter before neutering, I didn't say anything for a few reasons. But I was horrified, and knowing how many just that one ltter can multiply. I can annoyed at myself for not saying anything, I should know better and could educate her in the realty of the situation. I think I will get some info for when I see her.<br />Sorry for going off topic! <br />I did read what has happened from this Craigs own site,and I believe that injustice has happened along the way in some form, and it does sounds like he is being used politically. But I am only seeing one side.Stitchabilitieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08486522750431462605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-19248817821135039902012-03-11T01:37:14.676-05:002012-03-11T01:37:14.676-05:00If you look at the pictures carefully, there is no...If you look at the pictures carefully, there is no evidence that any problems were real, it's a dreadful injustice.wide angle pics show clean,well cared for and comfortable houses and cats.only narrow close ups show illness and all came from the hospital unit.<br />The only cats with kittens arrived that way.<br />There have been no film or pictures of any rel abuse at Caboodle except the ridiculous way the ASPCA grabbed the cats and stacked them like tins of baked beans on a shelf!

It sounds like there were so many things wrong with the way things were run there, for whatever reasons (ignorance of how a 501(c)3 is supposed to be run, possible hoarding mentality, etc. - who knows? Not my human, we live in L.A. and she never met the guy who runs it or went there) - it was an accident waiting to happen. And finally the bottom fell out. We are heartbroken for all the kitties who suffered, because if run properly with sufficient staff and limiting intake, Caboodle Ranch could have been everything, or almost everything it appeared on the surface to be.Sparklehttp://www.sparklecat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-53697529595401858442012-03-10T23:42:15.427-05:002012-03-10T23:42:15.427-05:00Well written.

These are the most loving, caring, nurturing people and they want to help them all. But, eventually there are too many in one space and the care begins to disintegrate. Good intentions but not enough money to grow with the numbers. The answer is to spay and neuter. And that's that.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817710263282488135noreply@blogger.com
