Re: FW: Bronx Nuns Seek Extermination of 8 Year Old Cat Colony - O.T.
Thanks Joan for forwarding this. I've sent off emails to both address and I'll follow them with faxs. Here's what I wrote in case someone wants to use it as a template. Could someone please explain to me why feral cats that have lived on the Corpus Christi Monastery in the Bronx, NY for years are now targeted for eradication? What exactly have these animals done to warrant this? How is it that they have lived in harmony with the Dominican Nuns for the past eight years, but now are cruelly being removed from their habitat? What is it that they are doing, besides controlling the vermin population and enriching the compound with their beauty and grace that leads you to take these measures? Why is it that you are refusing the help of animal activists to resolve this issue in a humane manner? I've always had questions about practices in the Catholic Church, but this is not only puzzling behavior, it's down right cruel. Please rethink your position on this matter. If not for the sake of God's creatures placed in your care, than for the sake of your parishioners and those that might have been drawn to the church otherwise. Nina To protest this heartless and ill-guided assault on the cats, please contact the Corpus Christi Monastery and the Archdiocese of NY by phone, email or fax (see below.)

RE: FW: Bronx Nuns Seek Extermination of 8 Year Old Cat Colony -O.T.
Title: Message Thanks Nina. Here's mine, too. Kerry ...is something sorely lacking in this world, and spiritual leaders are not expected to join the ranks of the cruel and indifferent. Re the headline "Bronx Nuns Seek Extermination of 8 Year Old Cat Colony", I am absolutely incredulous that someone who holds the position of "Vicar of the Religious Office for the Archdiocese" can state "my compassion does not extend to these animals" and "they will be removed eventually, one way or another." For "these animals" have harmed no one, and are utterly innocent and defenceless. Unlike humans--unlike Helen C.--no animal is capable of premeditated cruelty. Helen C. is a disgrace to the community of Sisters and all spiritual leaders, and should be removed from her post. If she was once compassionate, the power has surely corrupted her, and she has totally lost sight of the sort of human being she is supposed to be. sincerely, Kerry MacKenzie, Chicago. -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joan DoljanSent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 11:51 AMTo: felvtalk@felineleukemia.orgSubject: Re: FW: Bronx Nuns Seek Extermination of 8 Year Old Cat Colony -O.T.

Re: FW: Bronx Nuns Seek Extermination of 8 Year Old Cat Colony - O.T.
I've just forwarded to all our fosters, board members and FuRR Yahoo group asking them to write. We had a similar situation here just about this time last year - an Episcopal minister was poisoning feral cats around his church. One reason he gave for not wanting cats arounfd (he never admitted poisoning but there were witnesses) was that the fleas bothered his congregation. I expect if there was a flea problem it was more likely to come from the homeless shelter in the basement of the church.Cherie A Gabbert [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I just sent it to my local, NBC, ABC and CBS stations, I hope something can come of this.
