  5. I hope so. I would hate to have to take her away from my kids who have already fallen in love with her. My son and I are huge fans of the show my cat from hell. So we are aware of all the problems we could have, but we also know a lot of things we can do to try and make her fit in.Hopefully all the stuff we have learned from that show will make it possible for her to stay. We are doing well financially now but many years ago when we were poor, we would buy cat food before we bought people food. We are suckers for out kitties

  8. He brought her home. She is so skinny and very affectionate. Poor thing. We are setting her up in my sons room for now. She is really hungry poor thing is trying to inhale the food so we have to give her a little bit at a time so she does not get sick. It is unfortunate that it is Friday because the cat clinic we use closes early on Friday and is closed on weekends so we will have to find a vet around here to see her or else wait until Monday. The older cat saw her and does not seem to care. The younger cat is hanging out by my sons door but is not acting angry. Hopefully they will get along. Either she will stay or go but we will not let her be abandoned. I wish I could figure out how to post a picture she is gorgeous. So husband said no AC. They left 2 windows open but the cat seems to be afraid of the outside so she did not leave.Leaving 2 windows open in June in Phoenix is not good enough I am so glad she did not get overheated. I guess you know what I will be doing this weekend.

  11. My husband is a subcontractor for a couple property maintenance companies and one of the things he does for them is to go into properties that are no longer occupied and fix what needs fixing so they can be rented out again. Sometimes people leave so much crap behind he has to rent a dumpster or make multiple trips to goodwill to donate if they actually leave anything of value behind. People do actually leave good stuff behind sometimes. This morning my husband called me he sounded so sad. he says they left a cat in here, the litter box is overflowing,the food bowl is empty,and there is a tiny bit of water. He says this is such a sweet cat following him around rubbing up on him wanting to be loved. We are in Phoenix AZ it is hotter than hell here right now I do not know if they left the AC on for this cat or not. If my husband had put this unit off until next week the cat likely would not have survived being trapped in there.with no food and possibly in very hot temperatures. Who does this kind of thing? I know people have tough times but really? I have gone through tough times and I could never just leave my cat. I don't want to move to a new house because I don't want to leave the few strays I feed with no one and these people abandoned their own cat.I would not want to take my cat to shelter ever because i know the statistics and I know how scary it would be but to leave a cat locked up alone with no food and no chance to find any. I just can't imagine what i would do if I had to let my cat go,but I know I would not do this! My husband wants to bring this cat home. I have 2 fixed male cats already. The older one is very mellow and good natured he has never had a problem accepting new cats and he does not bother with any of the cats that wander into our yard.The younger one however is very territorial and does not take kindly to cats that come into the yard, there is one in particular that he always tries to go after. He has tangled with this cat enough to have to go to the vet for an absess cause by a cat bite. Funnily he only goes after some cats, I wonder if maybe some of them are fixed and he only goes after the unfixed ones. I know the one he tangles with the most is unfixed. Well I am a cat lover but I really do not like the stress of introducing a new cat into the household.Bringing kittens in is hard enough. But how do I say no to this poor baby who just got left behind all alone? Worst thing is he told me he looks just like the best cat I ever had that I had to put down 7 years ago because of cancer. He knows how to pull my heartstrings for sure. He is taking the cat to the vet to have he/she checked out today. I am so sad for this kitty. I have a feeling we are about to have a 3rd cat if the vet says its healthy and hopefully already fixed. People can just be so awful :(

  13. The money I saved from quitting got spent on snacks. Macadamia nuts, were my biggest downfall. Expensive and fattening. I wish I had an answer for this I did not do well at controlling my snacking. I do however feel great being a non smoker and am in control of my eating now. Hang in there it will get easier as long as you keep going.
  14. Welcome pussycat Quite a few of us have gained some weight, so you are definitely not alone there. My emotions were off the charts I did a lot of crying, most of the time I did not even know why I was crying. I remember not liking myself very much too. Just know smoking will not make any of your problems go away. I always suggest reading at why quit.com. The knowledge I gained there has been vital in maintaining my quit. Knowledge is power! You have come so far. Don't turn back now!

      Sometimes it can really hurt a person's feelings when something like that happens. But you gotta be a duck and let it roll off your back B.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
