Sorry to all who were hijacked by my meandering off topic. Just a little weary.   I don't even know where to take this discussion so I better bow out for now.  Thank you.

I don't mean to be contrary, but the kind of folks that would dump a pet would not honor a contract.  They are often dumping the cat/dog as they are throwing garbage bags of their stuff in a friend's trunk or pick-up, on the day or night of their eviction.  Our adoption form informs them in...

Thanks and thanks again.  There are so many times over the years that I've thought there should be a support group for rescue workers, especially those of us that have to oversee the medical conditions of our cats.  It is so helpful to go into a vet's office with an idea of what you need...
