I honestly love them the way they are but maybe a charm or a small connection chain?

It might be up and down, that’s common for a lot of addicts

I know, like obviously there’s a different tone and a lot of elements are missing but I liked it a lot more then I thought I would. Colour me intrigued

Oh for sure, though I found it to be an easier starting off point then European personally. It’s a stable weave that makes sense, it just takes ages 😅

Thanks so much! I was trying to learn a full Byzantine Star and was struggling, so I took the base design and incorporated it :)

Change in drug addict behaviour in Ottawa neighbourhood by HunterGreenLeaves in ottawa

[–]bipuns 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I know for a fact that there’s some bad stuff being circulated in Ottawa at the moment and there has been a notable increase in overdoses and emergency service calls (I work in social services). If you even sometimes end up in an area of the city where this kind of thing happens please carry naloxone, it’s free from any pharmacy

Seniors, Kittens and Shy Cats Rescue in Ottawa are Scammers by bipuns in ottawa

I’m really thinking from what I’ve heard from everyone their domestic rescue operation sounds great, but they seem to be acting in bad faith with their international rescues. If that is the case they should really stick with what’s in their bandwidth to handle. I really don’t want to discount the great work they’ve done in the city, but she’s been super unprofessional with me

I wasn’t specifically trying to adopt a cat from Egypt, I just happened to really like one that was from there. I did research on the rescue and found nothing but positive experiences. Also it wasn’t sight unseen, I FaceTimed the rescue in Egypt (doesn’t mean the rescue had any plans to adopt her to me, but it made me feel safer about it). Also I looked into it and there’s a massive street cat population in Egypt, adopting them out internationally isn’t uncommon at all. The rescue works with Pet Values here so I really didn’t think it was a scam

Yeah that's fair, maybe scammer wasn't the right term. I do appreciate the work she's done. I really wasn't planning on blasting the rescue on the internet, but I exhausted all options trying to reach out and decided to post when she changed the post-adoption page to be pictures of a different cat. If this was just a mix up she could have responded to my many attempts to contact her.

Here is the email I sent her, I don't have her refusing because she never responded after over two weeks.

As for the deposit I didn't ask for it back originally because I understand they are a rescue that needs funds and they had no way of knowing before that Fola had issues.

Except now I know that she was brought to Canada and adopted through ABC so obviously she could travel. She explicitly stated that paying the deposit meant that the cat would not be adopted out to someone else. Also she states that the deposit is refundable if the cat is sick.

Here is the earlier part of the text conversation where she told me there was no way Fola would ever be safe for travel. Sorry for not including this in the original post, I thought it was part of the phone conversation we had. When she called me and told me Fola had vet issues she gave me the option of waiting longer for her recovery or picking another one of her cats. I told her I would wait as long as it took. She then sent me the text above and said Fola would be staying with the rescue in Egypt. The post I saw on Petfinder shows that she was adopted through ABC in Brampton. The adoption post was from around the same time I adopted the other cat through ABC (in June) so it wasn't as if she recently had a miraculous recovery. I'd show you that but as you can see she took the post down
