I received a letter from the Shelter today.

Dear Friends,

On Friday, Nov. 1, our shelter and director experienced a
tragedy. FIRE. We are so very sad to report that 40 babies
died and another 18 are in the care of a local veterinarian.
Many of our supplies were also destroyed.Along with the home
our director,Rosie.
We need your help.Medical coast are as yet unknown.If you
can help us with a cash donation in any amount, it will be used
to care for our animals.Cash donations should be mailed to
SSAS,P.O.Box 47436,Indianapolis, Ind.46247.
When our kitties are well enough to leave the vets, they will be
in need of foster care until totally well and ready for adoption.
We need foster homes. If you could take home to nurture and
love one of our babies,please call us at 317-788-9198.
Also distroyed in the fire were many of our pet supplies. We
know we need 15-20 carriers,medium size,along with cat/kitten
food.(wet or dry).Other needs are as of yet unknown.
Any finally, we need your prayers.There are many hearts to be
mended both human and animals.Please pray for Rosie and her
family as they rebuild their home and lives.
Thanks to the many people who stopped and rushed kitties to
the vet.Do know that you have saved lives.Special thanks to
the Perry Township Fire Dept. for their help in rescuing as many
babies as they could and their kindness and gentleness in
helping us with our babies who have gone to heaven.
