FeLV cat -New Jersey- I need to find him a Sanctuary Hmmm. Only 10 cats listed for adoption on their petfinder site. And only one of those, an FIV+ boy, is listed as special needs. This also makes me suspicious about the long term viability of the place. You have to be committed to finding homes for the cats. They need human families, attention, and they won't get that in a giant sanctuary setting. And if you're not focused on adoptions, you have to strictly limit your intake to avoid becoming overwhelmed. ----- Original Message ---- From: Susan Hoffman <susan_hoff...@yahoo.com> To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Monday, August 24, 2009 11:12:14 AM Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Urgent!

And, whoa! They want a $5000 surrender fee for a healthy cat and $7500 to take in an FIV or FeLV cat. I guess that's one way to make sure you don't wind up with too many animals. ----- Original Message ---- From: MaryChristine <twelvehousec...@gmail.com> To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Monday, August 24, 2009 11:02:34 AM Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Urgent! FeLV cat -New Jersey- I need to find him a Sanctuary http://www.loveandhopeforanimals.org/ has anyone ever heard of these folks before? i find it really scary how many sanctuaries keep appearing, with no history in the FIV/FeLV community.
