This is an e-mail I got from my former voice teacher, Janet.
========
My favorite Cat Shelter, The 9 Lives Foundation, is in difficulty, and I am hoping your hearts will go out to them and help them out.** Monica Thompson ( the patron Saint of Kitties) is the vet who has been running the shelter, and she has a no kill policy.* She goes all over the state rescuing cats from Shelters that would euthanize the kitties after a certain time, brings them to the Redwood City clinic, and then adopts them out for a ridiculously low fee-- Neutering and spaying free, etc.
**** But she has been working seven days a week for virtually no money, and she has become hugely in debt.* She needs to go to work for a regular vet with a regular salary to offer her, and she sadly, has to close her non profit veterinary clinic, and relocate the shelter to a less expensive (smaller) location.* Most of the cats must be adopted between now and the beginning of May, when the existing clinic closes its doors.*
**** She needs to adopt as many as possible of the wonderful kitties that reside there currently.* I can attest to their quality-- The two cats I adopted from the shelter, Buddy and Max, are the best kitties I have ever met.*
**** If you have ever considered adopting a cat, or know someone who would like to, now would be a great time!* If you can't adopt, please consider making a donation to the Shelter-- it is tax deductable.* Please help these wonderful animals-- I am sure you won't be able to resist, once you take a look at the website and see all the happy little faces waiting to be taken home and loved.* I would take them all, but I already have three...
Please look at the website, and pay a visit to Wookie, Snooky, Bubba, Buster, Wellington and all the other GREAT, beautiful, wonderful kitties at the shelter.* Here is the website.* Please save the kitties!* They need your support.* Please forward this to anyone you can think of who might want to help them find homes.
