You folks are really wonderful. As of now, there's a possibility (thanks to Jadapit) that I'll be able to locate someone around Denver who can take them temporarily. If not, Dr. Goodnow has generously offered to look after them for awhile, as I'm planning to relocate to a town not far away from where she lives. So it looks like I'll be able to keep my sweeties out of the shelter and be able to reclaim them after I get out of Denver.

Pet Talkers are truly the best! Thank you all!
