Thanks!Glad she is ok. you are a good mom
She probably just didn't want anyone routing around in her yard wo her home or possibly wanted to make sure she had YOUR tort (although it's probably the first one being you had pic/flyers but ya never know). I'm happy to see she was found!You're right. I didn't do any damage, though. Like I said, the kick was already twisted and not secured. I was able to push again it at an angle, and it opened. I closed it the same way. Call it temporary insanity, but I just had to see how she was. I couldn't wait 4 more hours with her in the cold. I had originally asked if I could just go over and get her. I don't think she would have mind it if it weren't because she had a lock on it. But, like I said, the lock wasn't secured. Well, I'm outside her home waiting for her to come home. When I see her, I'll profoundly apologize and give her the reward money. Maybe, that will help her understand how frantic I've been over her.
Yes, she took the reward, but, really, I was glad she did cause I was so happy that she tried to save Baby Runt from going into a busy street! Then, she lifted about 65 lbs into her trunk to get her into a gated backyard. Although she didn't know it, my poor baby slept under her shed in the cold (59 degrees). But, I got her back alive!!!!Just saw this, I'm so glad you have her back!!
If you don't mind me asking, I'm curious to know if the lady actually accepted your reward money. I can't imagine anyone would actually take $... When I help lost animals, I'm always thrilled just to be a part of their reunion.
I understand not having anyone going in her backyard until she got there, but I was worried about her health. She spent the night outside in the cold, and there's no way I can tell if she was dropped or banged around. The lady said she made grunting noises whenever she was moved. She only does that when she's in pain! So, yeah, I couldn't wait and I wasn't about to leave my lil girl in some backyard with 59 degree temps until she got off work especially when she was right in my sight.She probably just didn't want anyone routing around in her yard wo her home or possibly wanted to make sure she had YOUR tort (although it's probably the first one being you had pic/flyers but ya never know). I'm happy to see she was found!
That's exactly how it happened. When I asked if I can just go over and get her, it's not that she objected so much about my going over and getting her. It was more that she said the gate was lock -bolted, which it was. But, the lock was a mangled and twisted piece of steel, and the door was loose . With just a slide and a push, it opened. Now, if the locked door was secured, I really wouldn't have had the opportunity to go get her. I would have no choice but to wait. That just wasn't yhe case here. Look, the real issue here was that there was a precious life at stake here, at least in my mind. Baby Runt is like my baby. What human could leave a living soul suffering from cold and hunger for even a minute much less for several more hours? Remember, this lady had no clue on how to take care of this exotic animal much less an animal with special needs. In the end, she not only understood, she apologized for having her outside all night. All went well for everyone involved. End of story.I'll called the owner first before i am entering his gate.. but wait.. i am afraid the owner will not let me. so i'll just enter by myself without calling. and after that i am apologized. that's what i do. but if the gate is locked down firmly, i'll have to wait. but this case is different. so i'm with sibi.
LOLYou remind me of Nancy Drew.
