Ok, I'm just now getting caught up and this is a whirl wind of a thread! First I was all excited, then I wasn't, then I was again, then I wasn't Now I think I know whats up. I'm really sorry moosmom that you didn't get either kitty BUT I'm really happy at the way things worked out!! That just left room for you to adopt another needy kitty!!
I wish you were closer because my neighbor has a beautiful registered persian that she has thrown outside!! Long story but at least she is not on death row. She is well fed and has a warm (as warm as it gets outside in the dead of winter!!!) place to sleep.
I'm sure we will be hearing from you soon when you find that perfect kitty that needs your help!!
