Let's all look at the *Bright Side* of this ~

We're pretty sure Maddie got out of this without too much ruffled fur (more on that later);
AND we got a great opportunity to practice our *skills* at "Rescue by Computer"!

I'm positive that one of these dayz - we'll actually pull off a real honest-to-gosh Pet Talk Rescue - complete with a ground assult by Karen's Cavalry followed by an airlift by the PT Air Force .

These Rescue Missions require planning and deployment skills that take time and practice to hone to perfection - Maddie provided us with a good "Drill" to hone those skills! Just like a Fire Department - ya gotta practice to be good when the real opportunity presents itself.
It was a good drill, Troops ~ We're better prepared for the next one!

Now; back to Maddie ~
Just got this e-mail from Debbie, the Manager at Maddie's shelter (South Suburban Humane Society):

Saturday @ 1:30 PN CST
Hi John,

I have contacted Maddie's new owners & asked them to contact us. I will give them your email address & explain about how interested you all are in her. I was also hoping they would either send us pictures or bring her back here for us to take pictures of her & the new family. I will email them to you also.
I went on to your web page yesterday, how wonderful that you get so involved with the animals. As soon as I hear anything, I will contact you.

/s/ Debbie

I'll provide follow-ups as they arrive.
