I just wanted to second this, Jane.? Regardless of people's feelings for Susan OR Kelly, the fact remains that this story was done by a reputable news organization.?The story isn't "made up."?I highly doubt?a news organization would use fabricated stories.???The media is, by its nature, supposed to be impartial reporters of facts.?The video footage isn't "made up," and I just find it hard to believe the humane society (or any other organization for that matter) would remove animals without justification.? AND add to that the fact that the animals *were* removed, and obviously with enough evidence that the judge ordered their removal to be permanent.? Of course, some people will see what they want to see in the situation. Some will side with both parties.? But I think the important thing to remember is a) they would not likely have removed the animals without just cause and b) a judge certainly wouldn't have allowed them to stay removed without justification.? If you don't believe anyone involved in the story, logic would demand that you trust the impartial judge in the case to have made the right decision in not allowing any more animals back in the home (with the exception of three personal cats).
I echo the sentiments?of those of you that?pray for healing.? For the kitties, and for Kelly, as well as anyone else who's involved in this, emotionally or physically.? Its a tough situation.? But lets not attack each other, or discredit any stories because of the source.? You seriously need to consider the content of the material (including what I'm sure is public record if anyone wants to obtain a copy from the Courthouse) and not the messenger.

When and how does "rescue" morph into abuse and unspeakable neglect? This is a tragedy that has unfolded before all of us. I am sickened by the details and the silence that surrounds this. I hope that each one of these cats will get the attention and care that they deserve. I hope everyone involved in supporting or perpetuating this "rescue" will deal with reality of the aberration and deception behind it. I hope that Kelley can give up caring for cats until she gets the spiritual, emotional and psychological help she needs to care for herself.
