Please read my story...Thanks! http://www.fundable.com/groupactions/groupaction.2009-08-03.8415646672 UPDATE: We're going to make this work. We need $80 to meet the revised goal. (If we do not meet the goal, all the pledges are forfeited. And we're past the 5 day window when the goal can be lowered.) Second Chance Meow has agreed to take Snowball if we can meet the revised goal ($330, 10% of which goes to fundable as their fee.) I'll cover transport costs myself. Transport has been arranged to get Snowball from Los Angeles to Reno. I will also make arrangements to have him dewormed, treated for fleas and given his FVRCP vaccine en route. (Second Chance Meow will still need to get him neutered.) Please, please, please cross-post this. We are so very close to target. We have transport. And this has to work to get Snowball off the streets and into a home. --- On Wed, 8/12/09, Reyna Castano rcpin...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Reyna Castano rcpin...@yahoo.com Subject: [Felvtalk] Hello, I'm Snowball, Felv+, and I need your help. Please read my story...Thanks! To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Date: Wednesday, August 12, 2009, 9:04 AM Hello Everyone, My name is Snowball and I have been given the opportunity to be part of a wonderful family and live with other cats like me. I can't wait to be in my new home and receive and give lots of love. If Reyna had not rescued me I would have died. When she found me I was severely anemic. I could hardly walk and open my eyes. I was very sick. After an emergency transfusion and 3 days at the hospital I'm doing much better now. My appetite and energy are back. I love to play... my squeaky mouse is my favorite toy! She, however, cannot keep me because her family suffers from asthma. Also, she is a college student and does not have the money to properly care for me. This is why I need your help to get to Second Chance Meow (a home based sanctuary in Reno, Nevada). We all know that cats like me are hard to place in homes and usually end up in sanctuaries or shelters. I'm happy to be going to a loving and caring home where the people there know about this disease and can properly care for me. The fundraiser that was set up for me will end in 6 days. We still need more donations to make my dream of having a family of my own possible. Please help me! You will not regret it because you will have made this blue eyed cat very happy. : ) Meow, Snowball Fundraiser: http://www.fundable .com/groupaction s/groupaction. 2009-08-03. 8415646672 ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _ Drag n’ drop—Get easy photo sharing with Windows Live™ Photos. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/products/photos.aspx ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org

Yep. Amazing. I'll close out the fundraiser when I get home from work. Need to talk to Michael at Second Chance Meow and to Reyna. We may be able to do the transport and get Snowball to Reno this Monday. --- On Thu, 8/13/09, Pat Kachur katn...@charter.net wrote: From: Pat Kachur katn...@charter.net Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] UPDATE Re: Hello, I'm Snowball, Felv+, and I need your help.

great news! if it HADN'T worked, was gonna mention something i learned yesterday, when i posted the link on my facebook page: i got at least five folks asking why the secrecy about the sanctuary... all the questions were from good friends, all of whom, actually, cohosts of mine at www.cathobbyist.com, but might be something to consider next time. incidentally, i placed two cats yesterday using facebook, and each time i've put someone's story up there, i've been able to reach friends who aren't necessarily in rescue per se, but have their own circle of friends to circulate the stories to--so don't forget it as a place to post! hip hip meow, for snowball and reyna, and michael and family who are enlarging that family! MC and susan, next time, use Chip-In: you get to keep whatever money you collect, even if you don't meet the goal--check with kim for the details! -- Spay Neuter Your Neighbors!
