Hi Linda and Eli,
I'm glad you uncovered the documentation (PHL CART) at the center of the
failure. It is vital that you continue your investigation efforts into
the destination of the money and real city policies. Seeing the
failure is the easy part, but now you get into classified secrets!
The money is going somewhere. And, I suspect, the priorities among the
commissioners of the relevant city agencies are not the same as the PHL
CART literature describes.
You have uncovered a non-existent program that was intended to help in
exactly this situation. This type of failure is very very common, but
it is always swept under the rug until the dust settles.
Is the money being misdirected to a different purpose like the water
department funnels money allocated for rain water management? Or is it
being misdirected to private hands through outside contracts like the
kids for cash arrangements in Wilkes Barre? You need to find out before
the wagons circle to protect the current arrangements. There is no hope
for solving the problem unless you expose the dirty secrets! They will
try to pin this policy failure on a single expendable employee as you
get closer to the truth.
Keep up the good work and all the best!
Glenn

Hi folks -
As you probably know by now, City Kitties has finished trapping
inside of the Windermere building as of Saturday morning, due to the
increasing danger inside the building. Rocco was the last cat
brought out of the building on the 38th day after the fire, by which
point he suffered liver damage from starvation. (He is receiving top
quality vet care through City Kitties, funded by your generous
donations to the Windermere Fire Fund, and should be okay after some
TLC). We are still working with Project MEOW to trap around the
area, in case any other pets have wandered out of the building.
*City Kitties is now working with Citizens for a No-Kill Philadelphia
to make sure that pets are never again left to die, due to the
incompetence by and lack of caring from city officials, and WE NEED
YOUR HELP.* We have found out quite a bit more information about
what the actual failure was- specifically the federally funded
organization here in Philly (PHL CART) to rescue animals in exactly
this situation was never deployed, and as far as we can tell, has
*never* been deployed. Keep in mind that there are an average of 2
fires a day here in Philly, and 60% of all people have pets.... and
that PHL CART is actively receiving funding from your tax dollars to
rescue pets and is doing *nothing.*
We need people to once again make some calls and write some emails to
the people in charge of PHL CART and city officials, and spread the
word. This is critical to making sure that there is permanent change.

Thank you everyone for the ongoing support - it is a great privilege
to be a part of a community that cares.
