I'm posting this as closure for those that were interested and for me, too, I guess. I'll be taking Chance to the SPCA tomorrow. I talked to the director today and she's super nice. She understands my situation(I mentioned nothing of that woman) and is glad to help me. Such a change from the other one. This isn't a no kill shelter but they're going to do everything they can to help me. I'm also going to be donating some money to them and going to see Chance more regularly there. I sent the woman a simple email this morning saying that since I hadn't heard from her, that I would probably put Chance at the SPCA and there was a possibility he could still be put down. She sent me 3 emails. Two very long ones that included words like idiot. My phone call to the reporter was called a childish rant. I won't include it all but I am so glad to cut ties with this person who is supposed to be so kind. I wish I'd never met her. I've just decided that what will be, will be. I can't do any more for Chance than I've already done. It's up to God now and I at least feel peaceful, though sad, about it. Thanks for all your concern.
