Northern New England readers, please note and forward
Below please find a desperate email from Dr. Bruce LeGallais in Vermont. He is trying to save 150 cats alone in a house, left from a hoarding case. These cats are slated to be destroyed soon. The local animal rescues, humane societies and animal control refuse to get involved. Dr. Bruce is on his own. We hope you can help by either adopting some of these cats or by networking with others in cat rescue to try to save as many of these cats as possible. Please forward this email to as many animal lovers as you know. If you can help, please contact Dr. Bruce directly. Message from Dr. Bruce LeGallais: My name is Dr. Bruce LeGallais. I am a veterinarian working in a small animal practice in Central Vermont. A client of mine, 4 or 5 years ago, attempted to become an exotic cat breeder (specifically Bengals and Abyssinians). Unfortunately she has bred a great number of cats but was unable to part with any of the litters. As a consequence she has become a hoarder and potentially has 100 to 150 cats in her house. Although this woman is very nice she obviously has some problems and is finally seeking some medical treatment. Therefore she can no longer care for her cats. The humane societies in Vermont are at full capacity at this time and no one can seem to help out with this problem. I am volunteering my time and resources to help find her cats homes. If not, they will all have to be euthanized. I personally will be going into the house to select out the healthy individuals and make sure they are up to date on their vaccines. This is a very unfortunate situation but hopefully with some good old Yankee Ingenuity (I am Canadian) some of these cats can be adopted out to good and loving homes. The house they are currently living in has been condemned by the Dept. of Health. In conclusion, I am seeking help in finding an alternative to euthanizing young, healthy cats of an unfortunate circumstance. If anyone is interested or can help me find homes please e-mail me back at . Thank-you for your time and consideration, Dr. Bruce email: phone: 860-242-9999 web: http://www.ourcompanions.com |
