Woman Watches Her Neighbors Abandon Their Cat | The Dodo Cat Crazy 

Yes, makes me want to cry.

Mine too.

How could they abandon such a loyal cat if i was living in that country I'd adopt him instead but I live in the Philippines

Disgusting. The previous owners could’ve dropped him off at a shelter anonymously. No excuses 😤💁🏽‍♀️

@@angelinacooper4553 I agree they could've just put in an animal shelter but no They abandoned him instead I disgust people like that

Proper answer: you can have my fist

"Too late.. 6 months are over"

@@tarron3237 absolutly !!!! and not just once ! All of a sudden i feel VERY generous !

"you took our cat" "you left it, i adopted it" "YOU TOOK OUR CAT" "MY CAT NOW, WHAT WILL YOU DO ABOUT IT IDIOTS"

Ma heart, ma soul, they both just shattered

I am a grown man and I am crying like hell

Same! I’m crying

yes😭😭😭😭

@ I'm at work and i look stupid

Me too! We got many earthquakes in my country and the only thing that I grab was my dog. I left my husband behind. He can take care of himself 🤣

​@NoFvckWasGiven haha I would do the same dogs are loyal

That's because some just don't have a heart

We have earthquakes and wildfires where I live, and my first instinct is to remember where our cat carrier is and check to make sure my cat is within grabbing range. She is coming with me if we have to evacuate, 100%.

Where I live has floods. I asked my mother, “What if there’s a flood? What about the chickens?” And I love my chickens as much as a dog-lover or a cat-lover, so if there is a flood I’m carrying those fat lil chickens and drag them outside, my family can swim and walk and run and escape xD

Yes and the cat didn't look well until he went to the new family. He is such a playful senior cat.

So happy this angel got a good home 🥺🥺

You guys are awesome

I'm happy he got someone to trust some day even I will meet my cat;)

Bless you!!

yess

If they're horrible enough to abandon their cat, I doubt they can even feel shame.

@@HEARTS-OF-SPACE Not necessarily. Time and changes in peoples' lives sometimes allow them to see things differently.

Human filth has no shame. If they ever see this, they'll probably do some backward mental acrobatics and say "Oh look, we did a good thing!"

such "people" have no shame

yall realize this is staged? btw I don't get why people sre giving unnecessary hate to the owners that abandoned him. You don't know their situation. Plus if someone dosen't want a pet in their house anymore what are they gonna do? Stay with it?

@@user-bj7xz6zm9n they rehome it or take it to a no-kill shelter or even to a veterinarian's office. You don't just abandon it and if you think this is okay, that speaks to your morality.

@@user-bj7xz6zm9n wait till your parents decide they dont want you anymore (or maybe thats already happened with you)

Sarah Tonen I agree completely. I'm glad Rolo has a loving home with her.

@@user-bj7xz6zm9n you find it a place where it will be taken care of. You should take a long hard look at your morals if you think it’s ok to abandon an animal under any circumstance.

Praise God you were there. Thank you! I absolutely loathe these horrible people who abandon their pets with no afterthought. Hate them!

💚🙏🙏🙏🙏💚 Thank You.

God bless you❤!

That's animal cruelty, plain and simple.

*S h a m e*

Hopefully they see this video and feel embarrassed and ashamed. So cruel I could never do this to any animal

Not that I’m defending the action of abandoning pets, but was the cat really their pet? Because the cat doesn’t look well taken care of. It looks kinda dirty like a stray cat.

@@imthecoolest50 They probably left it alone for a while then.

Apparently it IS illegal to abandon a pet in the US. So yes, they actually should be criminally charged.

Death penalty if you ask me!

Eeh I agree it's not a nice thing to do, but making it illegal? Yeah, no. That's a step too far

Yeah that's the difference between animals and humans. But this woman gives us hope

Ya. it's super sad. When we moved it took us a week of going back to our old house to try n catch our cat. He was an pure outdoor cat alley cat. He just wanted to live his own life. We finally managed to catch him. Brought him to our new house. Let him loose on the boat cuz it was at both houses so it was familiar place and he didn't leave it for like 2 weeks. Couldn't even coax him out with food. Had to put food/water up in the boat for him. Till 1 day my grandpa was eating KFC N Felix was lookin like he wanted it. So Gramps threw w.e was left of the piece on the floor. N Felix stared at it then went for it n was gucci. Figured it was the home we were staying out. He ended up dying 2 years later. He just disappeared saw him 1 day through out the whole day way more than usually. Got to pet em a few times which (was rare af) then he vanished. Figured hew as just old wanted to see his family 1 last time then go pass on peacefully. We never gave up on trying to get the little dude from the house tho. Neighbors the one who actually managed to catch him for us.

This comment wins

@@marimayn716 thx :3

Yes

@Melanie Hale we know, kidnapping cats and dogs are really.... like rescuing cute adorable animals

Probably in a bed but idk

I would have to be held at gunpoint to leave my cat behind!!!! Then I would go back and get him!! That scene wouldn't make sense anyway....thank God

Vile creatures people can be, one day the,ll know that feeling of total abandonment. Beautiful ending to a subsequently tragic story.

@@MrGreeneyedcat yes.... beautiful indeed! ⚘

I would have done the same thing. One of our cats is a stray that showed up at our house one day. Now he's a member of the family.

same.. its the sad truth.. people can be so evil, just look at whats going on all over the world, disgusting

it is

At least this one ended well:))

This woman’s kindness makes up for a lot

My family has had this well he's my cat to but his name is Oreo for a long time years anyways we have this pizza delivery guy who works for dominos and still lives around here he left Oreo when he moved he had him for a few years and just left him but Oreo was my family's cat before I was born that pizza guy deliverers to our house when we order dominos I hate him for it but he's a nice guy other than he left a cat

It seems that he is in a much better home now.

You don’t know the reasons why he was Abandoned

@@tasteful_trash4773 There aren't any good reasons so it doesnt matter

even the moon woah man.

So sweet 💓

And also, if you really can’t take care of them, put them up for adoption. Ask neighbors if they want him, and if they don’t, a shelter will take them.

Same!! I've only lived in places that allow animals. If any place says they don't allow my animals they don't need me living there. Thankfully spouse and I live with their dad who owns his house and we have five cats. Any apartments or other rental homes that don't allow pets isn't worth my time...no matter how good the price or if I like the place. I wish more people felt that way and stopped treating their pets like disposable property.

Moon already belongs to cats ,no hoomanz allowed ,says the sign 😂👍

ooH! I thought you meant the people that LEFT him lmao

Yes 😭 and those other people need abandoned to see how it feels

@I'd like to eat blades of grass I already am. We need more people like that

@Rosalie Silverman if I were to say "I'll try to be like that" implies I'm not ALREADY like that. "We need more people like me" then I guess i should say

I would never leave my 14 year old cat 😥

Mario's gonna do something very ilegal to those people

I hope it is scaring them to see this just as much as it was scaring for him to wait for them on the street for days no end.

@JUSTUS Williams its very obvious that cat was abandoned. just by looking at his behavior and how he just waited outside for them to come back, usually next to the front door. furthermore, he started losing a lot of weight after he was abandoned even though he was being fed regularly. a stray wouldn't be that broken after the people feeding it went away, it would simply find new people to feed it. this cat was part of a family and that family left him. you can tell jusr by looking at him and it breaks my heart.

My cat is been with me for almost half of my life and i cant believe that those people abandoned their cat

Thank you kind soul.

Brilliant

God bless you. Something is very wrong with people who treat their pets like the people in the video. The reason why we so easily become attached to little soft and defenseless creatures (and end up speaking to them like they're babies like the woman in this video did ♥️) is that we have instincts to help us properly care for actual babies. In other words, it's unnatural to dump your "baby" like this. That takes a cold and heartless soul. Ugh.

Well that's a happy ending. :)

Thank you!

Perhaps it wasn't their cat to start with? They moved into the house, the cat was already living around the property, in which case, it wasn't their cat, trying to forcefully remove it from it's home would be worse... But no, let's assume to believe the single side of this story we have here...

@@maxnaz47 dude who tf just has a cat on their property for two years. i wouldve been fine if rolo was a feral cat but hes obv domesticated. and even if rolo wasnt their cat (whichs unlikely) then why not help rolo get to a shelter or help find an owner. its just bad for them every way you look at it.

Theres 2 sides to evry story dont jump to conclusions too quickly.periodt.

@@trash1037 I know that I literally just said that if you read what I said to MAXNAZ 47 you should know that I literally just said that. And that I also said whatever was going on on their side doesn’t excuse them abandoning him!!! It’s still bad! The least they could have done was take him to a shelter for Pete’s sake!

@@rosepuppy1984 umm but u didnt know why they did that do u?!?!? My point is dont just say their horrible u dont even know why they did that dont jump to conclusion for god sake!

Hopefully they rot in Hell. Oh and someone treats them in the same way sometime soon. If they've got kids, a call to Social Services might be in line. If they do that to an animal, what the hell would they do to a child?

I think this video is more about the kind of person Maria is, not the one that abandoned the cat. Rolo was saved because of compassion in a human. Forget the original "owner".

@@Eaglelioncourt They need to be locked up for 10 years. It stands to reason that the authorities caught up with them and sentenced them. They are evil.

Yeah and the fact that the cat just waited for them to come back really broke my heart

Then have the audacity to pet and talk to the cat before leaving

I noticed it too!

My cat has it to but shes scared of it haha

@@pienvve haha 🙀

Seriously! The most amazing part for me was that they actually found a real one and not just the fake one advertised on FaceBook lol

Totally. Rolo looks like its the first time he been truly loved. Thank goodness for this lady. 💝

Yeah god bless her

Wow, I named our new neighbor’s cat Keke bc I didn’t know if it was a boy or girl when we first seen him lol. He started coming to visit almost every afternoon since spring of 2020. Long story short, neighbor left him behind this spring 2023 and we took him in. Watching this video reminded me of how our lil boy would go to his old empty house up the street and wait at the steps 😢 Now he’s a very loved well taken care of boy. He doesn’t even go to the neighbor’s house anymore when he’s outside. As I type this, he’s sleeping between my husband and I at the foot of the bed 😍

@@Iris-zq5mq Thank You. 💚🙏🙏🙏🙏💚

lol wow. I must be a stone cold blooded killer because if a cat scratches me, I will definitely get rid of it, most likely in a cat carrier right outside the humane society...

@@alexgibbs356 get rid of a cat for scratching??? I can understand if the cat doesn't love you and always hurts you, but cats are gonna scratch and bite if you annoy them, unlike most dogs.

A cat being just a cat. Nothing wrong with that. You expect a cat to be more human than you?

True, we got a rescue cat and for the first month, he would suddenly just bite or scratch. The vet said he was a mouther and to give him kicker toys. Plus when we picked him up we learned not to move in front of his face as that would cause an immediate reaction. So at this time, he has gone through 3 Jackson Kicker toys. He follows me around and his scratches only come if his claws grow out just a little too much. He was so worth the time and love and he gives back 100 fold. I and my husband love our 3 babies. Please don't give up on cats that scratch, that is their way of protection, find out how to minimize as maybe it is the way you are holding it or maybe the direction. Once you get their trust they can become so loyal and loveable.

I wish i knew then what i know now. Some of us think we are doing the best thing for them, but find that not all animal shelters are no kill and cats don't automatically know how to take care of themselves outside. It makes me sick to think how i did abandon my cats at one time. Two to the shelter and one outside. I was young and ignorant. Now even having two rescues with health issues, i plan to keep them until they go to their final rest. So sorry for my mistake. I am sad and angered by those who knowingly dump animals. So many...😥 Adopt a rescue. Furever pals!

Yes! I met a homeless man not too long ago outside a Walmart, and he had his dog. It was winter. The man had no jacket or anything because he had taken it off and put it over the dog to keep him warm. He had a sign asking for money, so I gave him some (I expected him to buy food for himself) but when he came out of the Walmart he had bought some dog food for the doggo. It was very sweet. I chatted with him for a bit and he was very nice. He hung out there a bit, and people would start buying food and supplies for both him and the dog. A homeless shelter opened up in the downtown part of our city, and when someone told him they allowed pets he packed up his stuff and brought him and his dog there. I hope they’re doing alright.

I want to make an army of abandoned animals and teach them to attack people who abandon/neglect/abuse their animals.

@Steve Parker No they are not. This isn't just some stray cat. If it spent its life living in a house and being cared for, it is not a stray so it can't fend for itself. It is super messed up that you think this is okay. A great human being you are! 👏

@Steve Parker Cats have been domesticated for years, I don’t see how they’re meant to be alone.

I think every breeder, shelter and shop should make you do like a basic test about the specific animal you want. That way less fucking garbage people like them might just abandon their family members

This right here

I agree. Pets dont deserve this.

@Juba - يوبا - ⵊⵓⴱⴰ not everyone gets the lingo.

And there should be civil fines. Sadly, people won’t do what is right, so there have to be consequences for bad behavior. It’s especially true in a case like this where they could have taken the cat to a shelter or asked their neighbors if anyone would be interested in taking their cat. It costs you nothing to do that.

Exactly what I am thinking too ❤ How can people be so mean. But really glad there are such good people in the world as well

@@0IIIIII Common sense dictates we should care about people we don’t know about and have no connection to? I don’t think so.

That's how we got several of our cats. Neighbors would move and leave their cats behind. When I was a leasing agent at an apartment complex, people would move and leave their cats to the unknown. Thank Goodness I was able to rehome all of them, some with friends, some with us. We can't save them all, but when it's right in front of your face you have to help. If everybody did that - there'd be so much less suffering, with people and animals.

That's horrible. Who does that?!?

You guys in the homing industry need to start levying fines for animals left at vacated properties. If you can prove they belonged to the renters/owners via records/fees/video/etc you NEED to punish them for abandonment. Legally it shouldn't be hard to argue finding animal damage at a vacated property is detrimental and having a lone animal is liability. Doesn't matter if it's a bored dog or scratching cat or lizard excrement or insects getting loose in the walls... Incorporate a clause in the lease that if a proven animal in their care is abandoned for over a week there will be HEFTY fines. Make them literally pay and people will rightly reconsider their responsibilities.

@@Undomaranel In many ways I agree with you, except that I think that would lead to people cruelly killing their pets to avoid the fine. And in many cases, it's because they're being evicted. So they have no money. Also, because so many shelters have a 90+% kill rate, some owners who can't take their pets, also can't bear the thought of them being killed by a shelter. They think the cat has a better chance of surviving if left alone. (Not quite the same with dogs). Unfortunately, statistically, they might be right. But many people don't know about the no-kill shelters. Even though they don't always have space for new cats. Unfortunately, the upcoming evictions crisis because of COVID is going to be really hard on pets. The no-kill shelters will all be full, and even animals who are very loved will have no place to go. My one cat only survived a kill shelter because she is a beautiful blue eyed long-haired lilac point siamese. But even the shelter that had her was about to give up and euthanize her. She had been abused and had so much PTSD. Fortunately, their vet called around and found another shelter to take her. She spent a year there before I adopted her. I knew when I met her if I didn't adopt her, she'd probably wait another year. She was about 3.5 years old at the time. For the first 6 months I had her, I locked us together in a walk-in closet every day for an hour, just so she could get used to being nearby a person who wouldn't hurt her. Then the next 6 months I would pick her up and kiss her and immediately put her back down. That was 6 years ago. I've now been loving her for more than half her life. She no longer runs and hides under the couch when I wear my Dansko clogs on the wood floor (I think they might sound like work boots that may have kicked her a few too many times). She's my baby girl now and she now knows she's loved. When I'm sad or sick, she gets really concerned and won't leave my side. She needed so much time and love and rehabilitation, but it makes me appreciate her so much more, knowing how far she has come.

That's horrible

So to betray that is akin to abusing a child or a dependent in your care. It should be punishable by law...those people who abandoned that sweet baby should be in jail, they're criminals.

I need that I need to hear that

I’m not quite sure if you’re defending the owners or-

That's the least they could do but no just got to leave the poor cat in the rain! Out of this video they could've drove to an adoption center so really your a pathetic human being

@FAUX Fake News - TRUMP 2020 MAGA KAG - - - Regardless of circumstances, they should've went to an adoption center. No excuses.

@FAUX Fake News - TRUMP 2020 MAGA KAG - - - Also, when did they support trump? Like, am I misreading that? Because I don't think this is a political issue in the slightest.

Yes, how BEAUTIFUL and noble of you to immediately want to take him to a vet, and get him checked out and having to pay for all of it too! Thank you for caring so much- for having a heart, and a soul. Many blessings your way! 🙏 💕

Applause

Amen

People who abuse animals (abandonment is definitely abuse) will almost always abuse children. Report animal abuse!

Agree totally

No, that's the gist of it. It's completely, unfortunately, HUMAN. If someone told me I am being inhuman to an animal, I'd take it as a compliment.

@@hyperchango wtf?

@@hyperchango You are an a-hole, not a damn compliment.

Animal cruelty ? What about animal agriculture and the people who pay to abuse, murder and dismember animals bodies so they can eat them unnecessarily ? That’s the real animal Holocaust and tragedy. 8 billion sentient innocent animals each and every year.

@@darrenlee8981 lmao beef go brrrrr

Well,it can be difficult to bring over a cat while moving,especially to another country.

@@hvegaval how stupid of an answer this is. You find a home for your pet !! It’s called being a responsible pet owner. Wow the stupidity is endless with humans.

HVegaval That’s no excuse. Pets are family. Even if they didn’t think so, those lazy assholes could have tried offering him free to a good home.

No they should be beat up

Maybe she did on some level. You don't know what was going on in her life. It made me really sad to watch this, but it had a happy ending and that's what really matters here.

@@interrogatorrupert1130 I don’t really care what was going on in her life tbh. It’s not hard to take a cat to a shelter or pop around the neighbours asking someone to take care of him. She chose to leave him to starve instead. I can’t sympathise with someone who would choose that

@@jennifermountain9876 you sound like the same person to get mad that she dumped him at a shelter too. stfu

@@interrogatorrupert1130 a domesticated cat isn’t as good of a hunter as you may think because they are so used to people feeding them they will wait for food instead of finding it themselves

She probably did take it to police I hope.

What heartless people, just because it’s an animal that doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel anything... they have souls aswell you worthless human been

I hope they can

@@cyclone8974 lmao, someone abandons a cat and you are all like “you deserve something worse than DEATH.”

I would love to see her be abandoned the same way by her children when she will be a helpless elderly. No regrets.

Yes its psychopathic because tbey could have dropped him at a shelter

I can never imagine ditching my precious baby like that. I rather spend all my time to find someone who can take care of her than to leave her with no shelter or anyone to love her The owner didn't give a second thought to their pet. There is no love. They don't deserve pets.

It happens all the time. It's not difficult to re-home a pet.

@@karendevine6131 Ok Karen

@@karendevine6131 Are you saying that its ok to leave your pet and then later get another one ?

Remember that people abandon their kids too, or they force them to move out.

You can't technically abandon a cat. They can exist in the wild almost naturally unlike dogs. As soon as they forget the human, its the stray life again

​​@@sephirothcloud3953force them to move out? You mean, making them grow up after taking care of them for 18 years min?

​@@ssj2camaro21doesn't really apply for a domesticated cat that's used to being fed. Especially if the cat is old like in the video.

@@ssj2camaro21more like not giving proper education & worst living standards & obviously no scope like travelling while growing up & no college degree & end up with broke Truck & a bubble living bum that subscribe to fox or the usual copium Charlie youtuber. I mean the typical red state hogs. I think that's what force moving out means. If just feeding here & there for some years is parenting then sure I have the classic Apt description of trumpets 😅

It’s so sad.. How could they abandon their pet!?! 😢 and especially if they had that pet for 2 years....

Yeah I mean they could’ve just donated him to a shelter not just abandon them

Disgusting and evil.

@@blesmol5091 That’s still pretty sad..

@@user-zg1ek1ud7o it is but that’s the least they could’ve done to show they care

WrenWings Gaming good cat 🌈 ❤

Stay blessed, Bob and his kind hoomans

@@Amaan.Q7 oh... Ya... 😢 😢 oh... 😔 😓 😢

Yes she was just holding herself back. It was so heartbreaking to see that cat waiting for his owner. Thank God Angels are for real among human beings that care for a poor soul🥺❤

@@B_Amit oh......... 😢 😢 😢 poor cat...

i'll get very emotional too if i was her😭

I was crying when I watched too because of her voice

I sure was, while watching the 1st half of this video

Absolutely 100000% !!!!!!!!

It always breaks my heart to observe shitty people being unconditionally loved by pets

Well I don't know about just like humans but what his previous owners did was terrible.

There are so many people that do that. Why do they get pets in the first place? So mean and heartbreaking 😢

She loooves him thank goodness rolo met her fast and didnt have to wait too long for his real mommy

Yeah that hit me...😭

😁😁

Their mothers were probably denied abortions

This has nothing to do with god. Stop making everything related to god ffs.

@@Sol_Badguy_GG oh please ? we can do whatever we want to. he/she was just praying and blessing for this person who saved this heart broken cat, are you mad or what?

@@Sol_Badguy_GG coming from an atheist, please shut the hell up.

@@Sol_Badguy_GG Godbless you bro

Oh yeah, I’m convinced they don’t forget. We adopted my cat when he was about 7 months old, but before that he was born into some kind of cat hoarding situation, brought to the shelter, adopted, and returned to the shelter. He had lifelong abandonment/attachment issues. But we were a loving, stable home for him, so he lived a great life. It still makes me a little sad that he needed so much reassurance that we were still there/would come back soon/weren’t abandoning him.

Cat remember bad things but that I dont think they will remember that cats dont hold grudges n stuff like

Oh cats are just as emotional as dogs my youngest cat when i work night shifts when i leave would follow me to the door and be like no you can go then be watching me from the window drive off

we had saved a cat from having been abandoned a long time ago, and when we had to take her in vehicles she was utterly, probably thinking she’d get dropped off again

He probably gets so spoiled by his current family that when he thinks back on his previous owners he's just like "f- those people" lol. 😂

YES exactly! Tossing away my family is impossible.

@@patricasjoli4107 you Are totally Correct!! I took care of my Cat till he was 24 years old...I miss him So much!!

@@jacobcarrillo933 I happy your cat was able to have full life with you that's a long time 😊

@@patricasjoli4107 I miss him so much...he was like my Child...😢

@@jacobcarrillo933 if your able to have anouther pet go get yourself one even at the shelter I have had pets all my life I will never forget love they give back unconditionally I easily remember the loss I didnt think I could heal so fast by getting anouther so soon but it does I rescued the one have now she is a dog that was abused for 6 to7 yrs she never been held or been in a house she turned out to be more than I could ask for in loving kindness she is let me know if you can get anouther take care ⚘😊

yall realize this is staged? btw I don't get why people sre giving unnecessary hate to the owners that abandoned him. You don't know their situation. Plus if someone dosen't want a pet in their house anymore what are they gonna do? Stay with it?

If u can no longer care for or afford your pet , there ways out of that other than abandonment which is cruel. I personally think you should think before getting anymore pets. Maybe it's not for you for whatever reason...

For those of you with no soul; You should never have any pet.... maybe a gold fish or snails. But nothing warm with feet and fur.

@@lydiabeutner9199 but that takes time and a conscience. And a brain.

Not always, some cats fall through the cracks and aren't as lucky.

I would hate to be their baby. They probably toss them out too.

I treat my pets better than my own family since my family treats our pets like they’re robots meant to do nothing but eat and sleep

Disgusting behavior. It just shows what garbage the previous owners were.

@@sandremo5786 honestly i love my cat more than all my family members

@@martineshamzin7535 when they turn 18

Same here dude! When he looked back as she pulled away, thinking nothing was wrong, I fell apart… 😭 This woman is truly a kind soul

Woow

Those previous owners who abandoned the cat. I hope they got into a car crash for that. It was tragic watching the cat wait there for them to return.

I know, right? I used to travel abroad for vacation quite regularly, but now I have my fuzzy little boy I can't bear to leave the house for more than a day. I've happily given up travelling abroad for him and I just can not understand how Rolo's previous owners could do that to him.

ditto here. I was shuddering. can't imagine what the poor boy went through. thank God for noble souls like Marie, the boy has a new life😊❤
