Arlene update part 2 ************************************************************************** We had been supplying her with food for the ferals we TNR in her backyard. She knows each one and who the new ones are that appear. We also let Arlene know to contact us if she needs food for her indoor kitties. Not to take it out of her food stamps anymore. We brought her a bunch of cat food, dog food and kitty litter. Also we arrange with the local vet that Arlene could bring any of her indoor companion animals in to see him and be treated. We would cover the bill. Which she has now done.
I know this wont stop her house going into foreclosure and we have to find a place for over 20 + ferals but she had a little weight lifted off her burden and was so very touched at everyone reaching out to her. I’m sure she felt forgotten and abandoned when her husband died. She told us it was caring for the ferals and her own indoor pets that has gotten her thru after her husbands death. Sue you and your friends who reached out and pay pal donations touched her life in a big way. It didn’t solve her housing dilemma but lightened her load and let her know she is cared about and people appreciate her efforts and love for the cats. There are no government agencies or united way or any of the common organizations down where she is. But alas it’s the goodness of people that love and give that helped her. Sue I was so touched at your kindness and wanting to help. I wanted to let you know it really did help. So far apx $800 have come in and we have it in a special fund to meet her vet needs and food needs as long as it lasts. In gratitude and love Merry PS Arlene had to turn her phone off. My director drove down to bring her more food and give her the $100. She had mentioned to us that 3 pregnant females had wandered into her yard and were living there. When Patti was talking to her on her front porch one of the females was giving birth to kittens right then!! Patti called us to let us know kitten season has officially started!!! *********************************************************************************************** Thank you everyone for your support and for your thoughts and prayers.
