    Buddy Boy in TN: some answers

    John Gill and Critters and I all meet secretly, many times a day, over cats just like Buddy Boy.... along with others, we call ourselves SCAT: Special-Cat Action Team. our motto? Those Who Can, Do.

    I am a board member for Hurricane Pet Rescue, which just happens to be headquartered in Miami, but is a national rescue group. Buddy Boy's mom contacted Celene when trying to place Buddy Boy, who climbed out of the monitor onto many of our desks, and we've been working to place him ever since.

    He's in Knoxville, and we're all keeping our paws crossed that he has, indeed, found himself a purrfect home in SC--his new mom is hoping to drive up (down?) to get him on saturday! Only thing we're waiting on is a successful home visit, as new mom has passed the application process....

    Thanks to EVERYONE who has responded!

    TenHouseCats is right there are a bunch of real great people in a number of organizations through out the country. We cover Main to California to Florida. I have a cat from Cal. and a couple from Mass. These people work above and beyond what is necessary. Time, money, transportation, and most of all open harts. We don’t just look in our back yard, but try to help as many as possible. No matter where or when.
    All I can say is THANKS to everyone that helps and yes I am proud to say I am a member of S.C.A.T.

    I believe that SCAT now has a web site. As to me I do transports any where from Baltimore to Boston. most are set up for 1-1.5 hour drives, but it seems that there is a problem going from N.J. to Mass. so I have been covering it. I love to drive and for me 4 hours each way is no big deal. I prefer cats but I have handled dogs. I have some pics on my site at: www.jsgill.net

    Buddy Boy and his bonded brother, Joey, will NOT be separated after all: they are BOTH being adopted by the same family, and moving together to SC!

    (anyone in the columbia area who could do a home visit? the form will be supplied..... that's the last step.....)

    SCAT website

    we have a domain name, and an unmonitored emeow address.

    none of us has time to actually make up a website, tho--we're all too busy saving cats....

    if people are really interested in fostering, or posting cats around, or helping with transport, we can start posting our cases here more often.....

    Hi Mary Christine, you know me already.. what with all your help getting Hershey from Ann Arbor to Rochester NY (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=154227).

    And as I told you before and would like to let the SCAT people and others know, I will be glad to help with transport.. Detroit/Windsor/Toledo/Flint/Lansing areas 1-1.5 hours away.. Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo/Saginaw/southern Ontario/mid-Ohio areas a couple of hours.. longer trips, e.g., Chicago/Toronto/Buffalo possible with a little time to work out details..
