In no way was the fundraising goal the continued maintenance of Rufus at the same location. The fundraising explicitly stated that the goal was "to be relocated to a new home."

While I wish the best for Rufus, not a dime should be used to reward the new owner for blocking his move to Damon's.

Do people on this forum not understand basic english or do they just comment without reading the entire thread and what it is about? I thought the above comment was blatantly obvious.

Neither the sentiment nor the content are blatantly obvious. There is a divergence of opinion as to whether it is appropriate for the $$$ to be used to relocate Rufus to a new, bigger tank at the exact same place or, for the intended purpose of moving him to a different place - Damons. The content is not blatantly obvious as noticeably absent from the prior discussion was a reference to the wording of the purpose behind raising the $3000.00.

Be leery of making such assumptions, as it tends to make one an ass.
