People need to pay attention to details before they go making comments about something they know nothing about. For the record Mimosa St. is a dead end street, so it is not like you have alot of traffic driving up and down it. And I am sure being raised around horses, her mom is not going to put her daughter in harms way. Having horses and loving horses myself, I give them both alot of praise, not letting being in the city keep them from doing what they love.

Ms. Nan, thank you for answering my question. It sounds like you are on top of things and doing a very good job. The last news we had on the Ridgaways they were renting here in Natchez, after the house in Vidalia they were renting; burned to the ground. And the Gene Ridgaway worked in the lab at Community Hospital, don't know if that helps, and you probably already have this information, but just in case you don't. I personally hope they went back to Texas or New Mexico and never come back to this area ever again. We don't need that kind of trash living here.

Nan, is this right, that there is NO law in MS for animal rights. Something needs to be done about that, if this is true. I hope freedom42 is wrong, that is just too backwards.

Animals have rights too. An example needs to be made of the Ridgaways, people should not be allowed to neglect their animals to the point these people did and get away with it. It is summer, and all six of my horses have big grass bellies, for these horses to be in the condition they are in, they had to be put somewhere with no grass, which if that was the case they should have been given hay and grain regularly, this is a sure case of neglect. The Ridgaways should be put in jail and made to pay the bill for the animals they have neglected.

We find it very suspectous that people who supposedly own a 1,000 acre ranch in New Mexico, & property in Texas haul all these around with them. Gene Ridgaway is supposed to be a retired law enforcement officer, if this is so why are they here in Natchez renting and moving all these animals around. Why have they been here all these years and get away with driving vehicles with New Mexico tags. What or whom are they hiding from.

Being horse & pet owners ourselves my husband and myself are outraged at the neglect these animals received in the hands of these horrible people. Gene & Vickie Ridgaway supposedly own a 1,000 acre ranch & property in Texas, there is no excuse for the neglect the animals have suffered. It is public record that they received a settlement for the house that they were renting in Vidalia, LA caught fire, and that not being satisfied with that settlement are presently in a law suit for more money. The Ridgaways need to be held accountable for the neglect of their animals. Pet owners have a responsiblity to their pets, just as parents have a responsiblity to their children. If a parent neglects a child, that child is taken away and the parent put in jail. An example need to be made here, just because they are animals does not mean this neglect is acceptable. The Humane Society needs to sue the Ridgaways for what ever amount acrues for nursing their animals back to health. This is not humane behavior for a pet owner. They are not wanted in this town, and need to go back from where ever they came from.

I am so glad that those horses are not going to be given back to the Ridgaways, they have no business owning any animals.

The owners of those horses & goats need to go back to New Mexico where they came from. They are not welcome in this town.

The owners of those horses & goats need to go back to New Mexico where they came from. They are now welcome in this town.

If you look up a picture of a panther, you will see that panthers for our area look just like the picture of that cougar. There are panthers in our area, so it is more likely a panther that has been sighted.
On Photos show La. cats; give Natchez mystery validity
