THATS THE BEST POSSIBLE NEWS THAT THEY WILL GO AS A GROUP AND STAY TOGETHER AS A FAMILY!!
CONCATULATIONS FROM THE FOUND PARADISE CAT HOTEL CATS AND FEEDER.

GILL, do they need anything special to come into the US? Just proof of vaccinations, etc?

I wonder what is wrong with poor Sandra. Bless her for thinking of her kitties, and even having a trust to look after them. I could just cry for her...

This is absolutely fantastic

Bless you for taking all four of her babies. Prayers for her babies and prayers for her and her situation.

Freedom and GILL - I did get one response from Toronto, a person who loves animals:

"I put this out to a lot of different places including the
http://www.torontocatrescue.ca/


It seems that the Toronto Cat Rescue people placed these cats, plus
another the person had, 6 months ago.


They are looking into it, but to date none of the people who adopted
these animal has gotten back to Toronto Cat Rescue to tell them that the
cats have been returned to the previous owner.....sooooo, as I said they
are looking into it."

GILL, did the lady say anything about this?

A member of the Pet Talk forum in New Jersey has apparently been in

Interesting, because the Toronto Cat Rescue lady said that they had
DEFINELY been taken - as I said 6 months ago. I asked her if she
thought maybe the animals had been returned.... but she seemed to think
they would have heard. She also said that Sandra was very hard to get
hold of and it was extremely difficult for them to get the pet adoptees
and her together ...she said Sandra had paid a fair sum over to the
CatRescue place ...funny.

I agree - a lot of these places are completely colunteer run and I guess
it depends upon who is involved as to how well the info is kept flowing
... but I will say one thing about this....

Before I contacted the Toronto Cat Rescue place yesterday (Friday) - on
Thursday, Sandra emailed me and she was adamant that NO ONE had been in
touch and she was still desperate for homes for these beauties and had
had any luck ...... So that seems odd if the Pet Talk person plans to
drive down to get the kitties, it sounds as though Sandra is discounting
that offer, or has forgotten about it. In view of this new info, I would
say one should treat this with caution.

I have a Care2 account, and posted this on the thread about these cats - to read it you would think that no one has called Sandra!

I was going to message Prima, but saw her message that she is unwell.

Since 2004, I have been a member of catoftheday.com
I invite you to please go there, and click on Pet Talk below the picture and description.

The first section is Dogs. Second is Cats. In CATS, please click on the Rescue session, and the thread about the three white cats and the tortie/calico.

A woman in NJ is totally willing to drive and get all four cats, and has talked to Sandra at least twice on the phone.

Sandra, according to a Toronto friend I cross-posted this to, has said NO one has been in touch with her(Sandra emailed my friend this on Thursday the 24 of January). Also, note the recollection of the Toronto Rescue in the Pet Talk thread.

If Sandra's ailment causes memory problems, then I can certainly understand. Otherwise...this sounds really weird.

I KNOW this gal and her husband in NJ will drive the 8 hours and back to get all four cats. She is waiting til Sandra is ready to give Sandra as much time with her furbabes as possible.

Can anyone clarify this for me????

thanks

Q: Miwa, Germany Tuesday January 1, 2008, 11:27 am
I remember last year already in spring, a mail with exactly the same picture was circulating, I don't remember the details any longer, but the cats were in Canada as well( for sure - so I'm sure they are the same cats), and I cross posted. So, does that mean that these cats still had not found anyone since? It must have been the same owner? oh, that's so sad, I really really keep my fingers crossed for them all and hope they find loving homes as soon as possible. I wish I could help as well, but I live in Germany with my 5 cats...

A: Prima, Care2 moderator (who is ill herself): She had no clue all of this was going on until I emailed her. She says she's not very technical and YES she did come on about a year ago and no one ever said anything. She never knew how to really get around Care2. It takes energy to learn and she doesn't have it. So I went over the news area and she was shocked to death and she is receiving emails. *Diane -Thank You

Everyone can go to Sandra's page and under comments she has posted on March 29th a Slide show with many photo's of the cats above. We tried to get some photo's on her page but Care2 was having some tech issues. Take a look at her profile page under comments. She posted them....

So,both of us are off to rest for the evening and Sandra will be commenting here tomorrow. She's overwhelmed and had no clue why after a year finally something is happening and she started very early looking for homes. It's more urgent now. It would be the best thing to have all stay together."

I think Sandra needs to decide soon. Maybe her memory is getting bad. One post said she wanted someone local - which naturally is preferable. But heck...come on folks!

GILL, I would imagine you and Sandra talked about how the four cats would be introduced to the present 8. Although she said recently that no one had contacted her, I saw another earlier post saying she had been getting lots of calls/emails.

I posted the link to this site/message for anyone there to check.

I hope this works out.

ETA: Okay, several hours later the inconsistencies have been explained. I pm'd GILL again, and hope all works out!
