Question
I had a 5 week old kitten we had her for about 2 weeks but we were skeptical about keeping her due to work schedules. We called this what we thought was an animal agency in our neighborhood well a lady came and picked her up saying she was going to take care of her until she can put her up for adoption. We now found out she is trading our kitten. I texted her numerous times telling her I want the kitten back if she’s just going to give her to someone else who would take her.
Answer
Generally when a person surrenders his/her animal, such person has no further rights to that animal.
