Melissa,

I know how difficult it is for you. I've been there. You do such great work, girl. But there are times when you just have to let things go. I had a woman stop me to say she had 3 cats that were her mom's and her Mom was in a nursing home. The vet offered to euthanize all three for $120. He's despicable and I will never recommend him to anyone. These cats aren't old either. They're fairly young, 4, 5, and 6. I gave her my card and told her to call me. The cats are currently in her mom's house, which will eventually be put up for sale, so there's no threat of them being dumped. I've called her to let her know I'll take pictures and put them of Petfinder.com My friend offered to foster them, but this woman won't call us back.

I felt bad and even concerned, but it's out of our hands. Obviously this lady isn't that concerned, so I'm not going to be either. I've got other fish to fry.

All you can do, Melissa, is hope and pray. I know it's difficult not worry. I totally get that. But you will drive yourself crazy if you allow it to get to you.

Hang in there, girl and if you need to talk, give me a call. You've got my number. Keep up the great work you do!!

and hugs,

Donna and fur crew
