    I've got LES tonight...

    I was bored so I decided to torture myself a little by going on Petfinder.com

    There I saw this beautiful 14 year old Maine Coon who was given up by her owner because he's going overseas and doesn't want to go through the quarantine. She's now at the Staten Island Counsel for Animal Welfare in NY and is in great danger of being PTS if she doesn't find a home.

    I contacted my friend who is the head of the Maine Coon Alliance Rescue Network to let her know of this situation. I told her I would help in anyway I can to get Nusse (that's the cats name) out of that place.

    I'll let you know what I hear. I may have a foster kitty pretty soon. Here's the link:

    Oh my - she sure is beautiful. Such a sad situation. I feel so badly for her - what must be going on in her head.

    Oh My Gosh - she is such a pretty baby. How could anyone in their right mind surrender her? I will never understand....

    Thank you Donna for caring enough to help this little one. I certainly hope she finds a good person who will appreciate her.

    Hugs to you for being so kind.

    Although I agree with the owner that an overseas trip for a 14 year old cat, plus the quarantine, would probably be out of the question, I hurt for that sweet girl. He should have made arrangements for her without turning her in to the shelter.

    Donna, I cannot go to Petfinder. I cannot put myself through it. I want to save them all. I grieve over the rescues at Petsmart, and I know that they will never be put to sleep.

    I can't open this link (no computer problem, just me.......can't do it).

    I hope she finds a loving home to live out her life.

    What a BEAUTIFUL kitty! Just GORGEOUS!

    I hope your Maine Coon friend can help...

    And Maine Coons are known for congenital heart defects, and don't live much beyond 12. So that might be an added reason why the flight and quarantine would be too much for Nusse.

    I hope I have a small bungalow one day so I can save a couple more cats!

    Donna - best of luck!

    hugs

    What a gorgeous cat! I hope you get something worked out Donna or at least help her find a new home for her golden years.

    She makes me think of my Ripley. The looks are very similar and the ages are the same. I couldn't imagine having to leave him behind like that.
