Well, I went to the shelter on Tuesday evening and stayed for 2 1/2 hours. The one cat that I thought was adopted out, was not. He is such a dear kitty. So I played with him first. Then three cats were adopted while I was there, leaving only four. Can you imagine that few? Anyway, I played with the remaining cats, taking them out of their cages, hugging them, kissing them, and brushing them. They all loved it and so did I. I had cat hair all over me by the time I got home. I had to strip at the door (once I got inside that is) since I didn't want my guys to catch anything from the other kitties. I had a wonderful time and was rather tempted to offer Junie (the oh sweet kitty) a new home. But since there are so few cats in the shelter, I would like someone else to give this wonderful kitty a wonderful home. I am trying to share.

The pitiful part to this story is the number of dogs and rabbits at the shelter.

The good news is that they are safe, pampered and have a good chance of living out their lives, either at the shelter or in a warm and fuzzy home....hopefully.....

I am glad I am doing this but wonder how long it will be until I have 40 cats, 20 rabbits, 10 dogs and a bird!
