my sister's mother in law has 13 cats - and has had some serious health issues over the last few years. She was dx'ed with breast cancer a couple years ago - was scratched by one of her cats a few weeks ago and was put in the hospital on anti-biotics and most recently on Thursday she was coming down the steps and one of the cats shot down the steps in front of her and she tried to miss it and she fell down the steps and ended up breaking her hip.
:(
she doesn't have a land line phone - and had dropped her cell phone in water the night before so had no phone access. She had to crawl down the rest of the steps to the front door and yell for someone to help as they were walking by her house! :( She got her hip fixed but is now in a rehab for at LEAST 8 weeks -
her kids (my brother in law and his sisters) want at least some of the cats rehomed (they have wanted her to do this since she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006). She needs help with her numbers but isn't willing to do anything herself.
if anyone is going to judge the family - please don't repond - until you walk a mile in someone's shoes

I went to rainbowanimalrefuge.org and put my kittens on their site and they all got homes. I know that you live in Ohio, but I have had many people drive 2 to 4 hours to get a kitten. Please try them and get back to me. Rebecca

I really don't have anything to offer other than my prayers that all will go well for your sister's MIL and w/rehoming some of the furbabies. I only know one person who lives in Columbus and she's not a cat person at all. However, I will send her an email in case she knows someone who might be willing to take one of the cats. What is your sister's MIL's name? I'll add it to my prayer list immediately......
