| Barbara, anything that saves animals lives is not taking up time
or breaking any rules in my books. I dream of hitting megabucks
just so I can open up something like this for all animals.
P.S.
actually my husband thinks I already started.

1863.2 | So much to be done..... | BRUTWO::SOBEK | | Thu Oct 13 1988 10:55 | 25 |
| Barbara,
I was also impressed with the "Just Cats" display at the show.
...though I ended up leaving the area in a hurry. It's one thing
to care about homeless cats in general ...something else to see one
particular homeless cat looking at you. Something about the contrast
of the homeless ones caged near all the "pampered darlings" was
especially poignant. It doesn't seem like too much for a kitty to
ask for ...a meal, a warm place to sleep and a person who belongs
to them. It made the small donation seem very inadequate.
My hat is off to the people (including many of our Feline Noters)
who give so much of themselves in a real effort to reduce the numbers
of cats in trouble and helping them to find loving homes. Caring
comes natural to "cat lovers", but doing something about it, one
cat at a time, is the tough part.
My thoughts are drifting to E.T. and all the work she does to show
how much fun can be had with her "rescued" family ...to Roberta
and her work with the ferals, ..to the breeders who give so much
advice to help us give our cats the best of care ...to you, Barbara
for caring enough to enter this base note, and to so many others
who have done what they could ..and then some. It's an encouraging
thought to know that so much love has GOT to make a difference.

| Barbara,
Thank you for putting in that note. My cat club is sponsoring a
cat show in about 3 weeks and we were looking for just this kind
of shelter to put up a display out front. I am going to give them
a call today and have them send some info to the show manager.

1863.5 | answering machine doesn't work! | VIDEO::TAYLOR | Me and my lil' pots o' purrs. | Thu Oct 20 1988 10:01 | 7 |
| I have been trying to get in touch with these people, but every
time I call I get the answering machine. I wait to leave a message
"after the beep" but I think that the machine is malfunctioning.
The beep just keeps beeping.:-)

1863.6 | Knock, knock, who's there? NO ONE | DRFIX::IVES | | Thu Oct 20 1988 13:48 | 15 |
| Hi Holly
I'm sorry their answering machine doesn't work. (Darn these gadgets!!)
I was wondering if you called the operator, (maybe she is a cat
lover?) and told her the story, also the post office might know
who picks up the mail from the box and you could tell them.
Any of you noters out there live in Mansfield?????? Could you help
Holly out? Maybe go find the place and knock on the door etc.
Holly let me know if any of the above work or don't work. We could
always call the cops!!!!!!!

| Well, I finally got in touch with them. I told them about their
answering macine problem, and told them to contact the show manager
for this weekend's show. Hopefully, they'll be there Saturday.
