…Rescue Mission

Imagine the scene…

It was a Cold Wet Wednesday, and I saw an email come through – it was from Arsef?k. I sigh heavily – nothing ever good comes from him and I can see the clouds are looking even more ominous than it did a few minutes ago.. I hesitate, Do I open it or Do I just delete it..

I opened it…

I started reading it and it went something like this “..blah, blah, blah, Im starting new life in Kloof… blah blah blah…” and as I was sitting reading it I could feel my eyes water from boredom and to save myself from any further agony I had to just close it. But wait!.. I opened it again…

I saw a reference there about my Border Collies.…I read it again..slowly.. He had dumped them at the SPCA?.. surely that couldnt be true! Why would he do that? When he was the one who INSISTED on keeping them after the Divorce? How could he be so cruel? Is he more mental than first diagnosed?<– We need to retest I think ..

Now my mind is racing.. when did he take them… how long have my babies, Salt & Pepper, been there? I look at the time.. its late.. perhaps too late.. Then read some more.. he says I have till Friday to decide on them..

Ok, I take a breathe its not too late – Let me gather my wits.. I have no car today so I will try calm down and phone them in the morning and sort this whole thing out.. Surely it is a huge mistake..

Thursday Morning – I phone as soon as I get to the office – - – I speak to the Chief Inspector and she is sad to report that my babies are in fact prisoners there and were given their last rites the day before as they were scheduled to be put down yesterday.. OMG I started crying – My Babies.. gone forever! She then finally manages to calm me down and proceeded to tell me that due to them being the most beautiful dogs she just couldn’t do it and they are still alive but today is unfortunately the day.

I managed to calm down between sniffles and sobs and asked her how long they have been there and she says 10 days… OMW.. 10 days! And Arsef?k only tells me now? I plead with her to give me an hour I am on my way with Bail..

So off I go armed with blankets and hugs and kisses and lots of pain in my heart to rescue my babies from their horrible dillema!

When I got there my heart just broke at the sight of them.. They just cried so sadly when they saw me appraoching..

Very heartbreaking stuff.. And all I could think about besides getting them out of there is what a real waste of human parts arsef?k truly is.. I would say we should just recycle him but I am afraid he is rotten to the core .. We need to treat him like chemical waste now.

So I bundled Salt & Pepper in the car and took them to a safe home(location has been withheld for safety reasons). I then bought them food, bowls, more blankies, shampoo, hooves, etc etc.

And I am happy to report that they are now happier than they have been for probably a loooong time..

I love my collies just as I love all of God’s creatures and cant believe how pathetic a person he is for doing what he has done.. I haven’t spoken to him regarding this as I feel it is a total waste of my energy really. .
