Folks, we are only missing one leg! I wanted to get a preliminary run list to you b/c John will be off email tomorrow after 5:30PM so I wanted him to have all the information at hand. I am hoping by some miracle someone will materialize to fill the last leg. We are so close, it will be a crime if this falls through.

***
Desperate! Pls forward to anyone who can help fill the 1 missing leg in the NJ-Delaware region! We are so close to getting these cats to safety. It is urgent to get these cats out this Saturday otherwise their lives are at risk! ONLY 1 missing leg! So close!

***
There are 5 cats at PG Animal Management Division who are running out of time and NOAH has offered to take them. A Siamese cat from NJ will join the transport in Lawrenceville, NJ. Cats will be transported in carriers. Carriers will be provided.

Please do not remove cats from carriers during the transport. If you feel it is essential to do so for any reason, please do so inside a closed vehicle!

Sorry for the delay.
Every thing went great. If I didn't have my "CREW" I would have come home with 1 or more. Those Turkish Vans were absolutely gorgeous. The one I had on the front seat was extremely friendly. I want to thank every body involved. Easy run for me. Besides how else would I get my Fried Clams and Chowder it's only 4 hours each way.
