Dear Nancy -
I am so sorry for all your troubles. This has to be a very, very difficult time in your life, with so many problems to resolve. All I can say is that I care, and I will be glad for you when you have found some resolution that will bring you as much peace as possible. Peace is possible, once you have come to a decision that you know is the best you can possibly do, given the circumstances - and *that* is what I wish for you.
Prayers for you and your health. I can't imagine the pain you are going through both physically and emotionally.
I also pray that you find the best solution for everyone involved.
Nancy, I'm so sorry to hear of your situation and poor Felicia. I am keeping my fingers crossed that you can take her to your new home so she can see out her twilight years with you or a sanctuary can provide a home for her. Sending you lots of {{{hugs}}} and hope to hear some positive news.
Oh my gosh. :( Nancy, I am SO sorry to hear you have been put in such a difficult position. I will hope and pray that everything works out and you are able to either bring Felicia with you, or at the very least find an alternate home for her. I just can't imagine the heartbreak you must have gone through to come to this decision. :(
Nancy, here are some resources that may help you to keep Felicia with you. Hope they help!

I haven't felt like being on Pet Talk lately.
The cats and I are still in the old apartment; the new one is being painted.
A friend (Kathryn) is going to keep Felicia for me while I move and get settled in. If I still can't keep her there, Kathryn said she will help find her a home.
Oh, that's good anyway. But we all, of course, hope Felicia can stay with you.Quote:
