Regarding Fred the Cat’s Secret he wrote about last Friday
It was supposed to be a puppy but it won’t be this time.
Last week, via email from a friend, we were told about a special little puppy at a humane society in another Florida county. He sounded like he needed Mr. Pop and I, and we felt we needed him.
We filled out the application with all the necessary information. We submitted it last Thursday knowing the decision would be made sometime Friday. We waited and waited but no word came. We went from excited to kind of blue. From the beginning we said if it was meant to be, it would. I guess it wasn’t.
We aren’t in the puppy hunting mode right now but this little guy stole our hearts away. I think one thing that was against us was that we were so far away and perhaps the humane society there felt they couldn’t easily check up on their little adoptee once he went to his new home.
So we glue our hearts back together and wait for the next opportunity to have a special little dog bump into our lives or we bump into his.

with hearts like yours and Mr POP --- something wonderful will come to your life when it is time......
and for fred - well he just remains the center of attention for a bit longer
I hope yor wait isn't too long.
I truly believe that animals find their right people... and your next one will soon find you.
Sorry to hear that. We had a puppy come to our home. Mister has taken it well, even thou he can't understand why she won't use the cat box.
i think yours will come along soon.
Do't be blue- your day will come! In NJ you have to get a pup from the county in which you live. Maybe this is the case in FLA too. Seems a stupid rule to me! If you ahve the credentials what should a county make! Rules will be rules!
Sorry to hear that it didn't work out for you guys, but your time will come. Hopefully it will be soon.
Sorry about that.
It is nice though how careful the Humane Society is with placements.
(Not that they needed to be in your case.)
It'll happen when it's meant to, as you and Fred know. That's how we've gotten our babies--pure chance.
all our animals have found us before we found them. you'll see, when you're not looking.......
Sometimes things like this are to get you all ready for the puppy you WILL get. At least that's the way I like to look at it.
Best wishes to all the PoP family, two legged and four, present and future.
I am sure it was just the distance thing...I hope the right little fluff ball comes your way soon..you are good pet parents and there are so many that need good parents like you....it will happen....
You made me mist up. Don't ever do that again. I mean it. I refuse to turn into an old softie.
Aw...sorry you didn't get the puppy you wanted.
I hope you find the right one soon!
Oh, well. (Cake and ice cream would still be appropriate, if you ask me.)
