Update on Transport of kitties to new forever home

Hi pals!

Wanted to let everyone know how much we appreciate your support with helping mom transport kitties to Oregon! I also wanted to provide an update:

Mom and friend's bestie now have a plan in place. Mom will load up the kitties and head out of KC on May 23 with the goal to arrive safely in Oregon on May 25. Mom is so humbled to be able to do one last thing for her dear friend Leigh. She loved her fur kids very much and mom is so happy she is going to be able to help get them to their new forever home.

Any help whether it be financial or positive thoughts/prayers for a safe trip are appreciated. The GoFundMe is here if you wish to donate some green papers. They are about 1/3 to goal. Any amount no matter how small is a huge help.

Thank you pals!

Love,
Angel CJ

Transport help

Hi Pals,

Can I ask for help with transporting mom's friends' cats to Oregon? They (mom and friends' bestie) have tried for nearly 4 months without success to find a loving home for these kitties.

You might remember mom posting a little while back ("Saying Goodbye is Never Easy") about losing a very dear friend on Christmas Eve. Her friend Leigh struggled with ptsd and depression. Her death was ruled accidental overdose. Her fur babies meant the world to her and mom knows her friend wouldn't want her fur babies to be left alone. Leigh had 2 doggies and 2 kitties. The doggies were taken in by a life-long friend immediately. While there has been interest in fostering the 2 kitties, no one has expressed interest in keeping them as their forever kitties. Mom can't take them because Mia and Mosby are declawed (mom adopted them that way, she didn't declaw them). Leigh's kitties are not declawed. Plus mom lives in an apt and with 2 cats already, she is at her limit for pets allowed in the apt. Mom would take them if she could!!!

Leigh's bestie and life long friend from grade school lives in Oregon and would like to bring the kitties in to her home. This would be their forever home. We need help getting them there! That's where I need your help pals! Mom and Leigh's bestie have discussed different options and think that having mom drive the kitties to Oregon would be best. But that's expensive. Bestie set up a GoFundMe to try to help with cost. Can my pals donate some green papers to help get these kitties to Oregon? Even a few green papers will be a big help!

Thank you for your consideration!

Take care pals!

Paying it forward...

Mom learned of a woman who recently lost her husband and 4 kitties in a house fire on Christmas Eve. While mom doesn't know this person she knows of her through a Facebook group she participates in called Cat Addicts Anonymous. Mom remembers how much support we got after our fire and wanted to help. While mom doesn't have a lot to give she still felt it was important to pay it forward. Mom knows she can never repay all the people who helped us (including complete strangers!) but she thought paying it forward would be a good way to thank all those that helped us!

The devastating fire happened in Decatur Illinois on the night of Christmas Eve. The story can be read here: http://www.foxillinois.com/news/features/top-swordtories/stories/decatur-man-dies-tuesday-night-fire-2385.shtml. Linda Henderson lost her husband William in the fire. The funeral for William is being held today. Perhaps pals could include Linda in #pawcircle today?

There is a GoFundme account set up for Linda here: http://www.gofundme.com/jjlmcc. If you feel compelled to help please do. It looks like she doesn't have a lot of support. Even a little bit might be a big help to her. If nothing else, say a prayer for her that she is able to remain strong during such a difficult time in her life.

Thanks pals!

Mom, Mia and I want to wish everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year!
