[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - I am so sorry you are going through this. I feel your anguish over this cat - you must be so worried.

You may not have any actual legal recourse - but many people have had a lawyer send a cease and desist letter anyway. If you have the funds to hire a lawyer for that - it's a quick job - or you have any lawyer friends, it's worth looking into.

If you are worried about the cats, you can call animal services and have them do a welfare check. You can also threaten to do that, if the rescue director doesn't tell you where the cat is and give you the opportunity to adopt them. It is escalatory but something to consider.

You don't deserve any of this. You trusted someone, when maybe you shouldn't have - but that doesn't mean you deserve to be publicly humiliated or to have a cat you nurtured for a year taken away from you.

You might also want to try reaching out to someone at the vet's office to see if they can give you any info - a receptionist or a vet tech. They may say no, but they may not.[/quote]

I am looking into have a lawyer write a letter. 
I was going to look into a protective order for antiharassment, but I was told that process is very lengthy and stressful and my DV advocate says with everything I am already going through, it would just put me through more stress. 
I did ask the vet if she could give me info about where the cat was going and she said she would, but then she said she didn't get a chance to talk to the owner of this rescue when my foster cat was picked up after her procedure.[/quote]
