OMG I am a bragger Lowell it's 3 years lAter and I know about jacks hit percent of what I THOUGHT I did. Sigh. Learned a lot past 3 years. I say to everyone...research stuff BEFORE it happens and don't get arrogant and think you know what you're doing . Sigh

I'm sad to see no George yet, but I love reading all of the compassionate discussions on this thread in particular, so many of you I want to hug and say thank you for caring for needy cats. I dfo the same and know how overwhelming and heart breaking it can be but it's worth it in the end. I'm...

is it possible to pull couch out from wall just a little bit and put litter box behind it for now. Or put food and water right where she's been pooping.

You know, I read your updates and just have to tell you I fall in love with you a little more every time! (NOT in a weird pervert way!!) You are very inspiring and I love anybody who loves cats as you do. I laughed thinking of all the cats you've been feeding in your kitchen. I always check in...

he's sooooo handsome...
