Caboodle was one of my FB friends..I thought/read someplace there was help at CR. No way one person can cope with that many..many times hoarders do fool the authorities and the public, I've seen it hapen..lets face it; we, even if all we do is take care of the animals, have more complicated lives than a pet. So at any time something can go wrong, financially, personally, healthwise..and that is other people should take charge. Having the land and best intentions is a great start but much more is needed. I do rescue, have a license and am now starting the paperwork to be non-profit, all this while I learnt that is what has to come first, then one can start looking for volunteers and plan ahead, ie ten years from now. I know CR was nonprof so what happened to the Board and volunteers he should have had to get that status? I'm very sorry for the cats that paid_and the people that entrusted their lives to the sanctuary_for that mistake. Another cautionary tale though unfortunatly very well based on reality. Marta

Thank God I changed my mind. I have since fond a "good" place for my children. If I see just a tad abnormal dischage from their eys, i is off to the vet. How could he let them get so sick? I know that with that many cats, he prpbably ran out of time and money to care for the, but he should have admtted he needed help for the sake of the cats. ---- Beth <[email protected]> wrote: > When will people learn not to "dump" their animals at these > "sanctuaries"?????????? http://www.wctv.tv/news/headlines/Caboodle_Ranch_Cat_Sanctuary_Operator_Faces_Cruelty_Charges_140581263.html?storySection=story If you have sent cats to Caboodle call 212-876-7700 ASPCA Head Office for further information in the morning.
