Her cats hate Switters and she really can't just keep them separate. Someone told Jean, Switters' caretaker, about a place called "animal rescue" in Denver but she knows nothing about it nor can she afford to fly Switters up there. Jean has talked to Marley's fund and they are full but put him on a waiting list. Jean is moving to Ashville. Is there anyone in the area who could even foster Switters until Marley's fund could take him. Jean says he really is a people person cat who is very sweet. He tries with the other cats but they just won't accept him. I've got 5 adult cats in my apt and live with turf wars so adding one more would just put everybody over the edge. Anybody out there who might be able to help? This little guy went thru so much to stay alive! This is Switters.
