Dorie finds a savior... and maybe a home. Thanks (and totals) for Day #3
Monday, Oct 6, 2008


An anonymous surgical vet has come to Dorie's rescue. DORIE WILL BE GETTING THE LIFE-SAVING SURGERY SHE NEEDS TODAY! I dropped her off before work this morning, and will be getting a call later to see how she's doing.

In addition, this kind doctor has offered to give Dorie a home.

She's going home with the doctor tonight to see how well she can adapt. (If she isn't happy - the doctor promised to call me first. I'd rather have her back than put her in the system!)

I know some of you will be sad to hear that I had to give up Dorie, but I think she'll be happier. She's too young and hyper for my tiny studio apartment, and she's used to having other cat friends. I just can't bear to put her back outside, but she's cooped up and bored here. This is best for her.

Thank you readers for all your kind letters. Your words of encouragement and advice really helped me. Thanks to those who gave what they could. It will all go toward paying the vet bills.

...and a belated thank you to Tom my apartment manager for looking the other way and not charging the $800 pet deposit I should have paid before bringing a cat into the building.

And the biggest thank you of all to The Doctor Who Saved Dorie!!
