YAY!

An email I received this week!




Hello ~
Not sure if you remember me, but one of your T and R's adopted my family at the end of last year. He just had his first bday.
I wanted to share some pics and give you a quick update on him. He is healthy as a horse and is doing wonderful. We are glad that he found us.
He is the most amusing cat that has ever joined our family. Almost like a child reincarnated. For instance, as soon as it starts getting light in the morning, he is awake and expects everyone in the house to be awake too! He runs from room to room batting toys around, playing under the beds. Then when we are up, he takes a nap!
When he hears the medicine cabinet open,he runs in, gets in the sink and waits for me to put water in a cup so we can play.
Whoever is taking a shower has the pleasure of him getting between the liner and curtain and then batting the liner. If I spray the massager on the liner, he will get a running start and jump at the curtain!! When showers are done, he gets in the tub and plays in whatever water is left.
I think the most amusing thing he does is, he climbs up the security screen door and waits for one of us to get behind him. He then purrs, leans his head back, into whoever is behind him waiting to be petted.
I could go on about his antics, but this email would turn in to a book."

YAY!

Fixing the cat problem, one hoarder at a time

How on earth can one little neighborhood have such a huge cat problem???

Yesterday, I became aware of yet ANOTHER goddamned litter of kittens - and another hoarder.

This hoarder's story will be posted later. For now, though - let me ask:

If you know me, and know that I am trying to fix this situation in the neighborhood, and you live around the corner and you see me every day -

- why wouldn't you TELL me if there was a hoarder on your block???

- ESPECIALLY when the cats all got tossed outside, not spayed or neutered???

I've been seeing new cats and I had no idea where they were coming from. Now I know.

And at least now I can try to do something.

But if you don't tell me, I can't help.

Don't turn a blind eye next time.
