Part of the story:
"In spring 2001, conditions were crowded at Montgomery animal
shelters. Several area shopkeepers were asked to help by taking in
some of the cats, but what was meant to be a one-time program became a
permanent one for Martin. Soon, neighboring Elmore County asked her to
help them out, too. "The Elmore shelter needs more help because it's a
tiny, rural operation that doesn't get
much publicity," Martin explains. Rebecca Carlisle, board president of
the Humane Society of Elmore County (HUEC), is grateful to have Martin
working with them. "Her adoption rate is almost 100 percent," she
says. "That's almost unheard-of. When cats go to Ella's, we don't have
to worry about them anymore."
