Lorrie, when I said I quit, it's really just a rant. I can't "quit" because, like you, I have too many permanent residents. Aside from the local strays (which I've been s/n for 7 years, after "retiring" from Florida and cat rescue<G>) that show up, this year I have 4 kittens brought by their feral Mom, the only one NOT trapped and spayed. I have not brought in any myself.
So my SO has taken over. So far, one pregnant MomCat who delivered 3 kittens. One Gas Station kitten. Most recently, one kitten from a local store, who had been left in a cardboard box full of watermelons, with a badly injured leg. What I meant is that I will no longer foster for other rescues and shelters, or take in any that have another option. Sounds good, doesn't it? Oh well. The ones here now are the un-adoptables that I brought with me from FL, and the non-releaseables from here. They are quite numerous. But the current crew is safe. They stay. >^..^< -----Original Message----- >From: Lorrie <[email protected]> >Sent: Aug 14, 2013 3:15 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] IFA tests/PCR tests > >Margo, I rescue too, and I've reached the same conclusion as you have. >This testing and retesting doesn't let us know what is really going on. >It is so discouraging, as well as extremely expensive when you have a >lot of rescued cats.
