UPDATE JUNE 7TH 2005
"Pets Alive" Offers Sanctuary to Corpus Christi Monastery Cats
(June 7, 2005 / 7 pm EST) In an exemplary show of compassion, Sara Whalen, head of Pets Alive <_javascript_:ol('http://www.petsalive.com');> , has offered to provide a new home for the seven feral cats now facing starvation and possible impoundment and death at the hands of the nuns of the Corpus Christi Monastery in the Bronx, New York. The grounds of the monastery have been home to the neutered and rabies-vaccinated cats for the past eight years. Sister Helen, Vicar of the Religious Office for the Archdiocese of NY, has stated that the nuns of the monastery are considering whether to allow volunteers to trap and remove the cats so they can be transferred to Pets Alive.
We hope compassion will prevail and all parties will agree to this solution.
The cats have now not been fed for six days and counting.
