Taco Bell stopped putting lard in their beans? When did they do
that? Doesn't matter, I think Taco Bell stinks (just my opinion).
Personally, when I want mexican-style food, I just wait until I'm in town

Oy! You really do need better fencing, as well as those window bars
you've talked about before. It's way too easy to get onto your

Oh your poor friends! What a horrible thing to come home to.
The only thing I can think of is to call around to anyplace in the area
that deals with/sells architectural fixtures. There may be a chance that
whoever stole these sold them to a dealer.
Good luck to your friends.

I agree with Sue's email. There are far too many cats left to their own
