Howard B needs your help!

Howard B needs your help!
OK, here are my thoughts for what they are worth..
What Howard is looking for right now: 1a) Someone who could possibly keep his 3 cats at their house for several weeks, giving him time to assemble the necessary paperwork for the flight. He will also be back in VA in a few weeks, so he could possibly drive back at that time.//// Debra Berry is also in that neck of the woods - she may be able to help. Hopefully she'll see this - I have her email address if she doesn't respond that I can pass on to you. 2) Any information on pet shipping services. He's looked into Jet A Pet, which handles all the paperwork, and PetAir, which doesn't. He'd like to hear about any experiences, cost, satisfaction, etc.///// American Airlines are pretty good - I'm not sure what their current charges are, but they cost circa $300 for me to fly 2 large crates with Pandora and Tiger from Houston to Washington DC. I think it's about $80/$100 a pet accompanied. American are great with pets. http://www.aa.com/content/travelInfo...horEvent=false http://tinyurl.com/o9fvr Although American only allow 2 pets as Cargo per passenger, there is nothing to stop Howard taking the third cat in the cabin, I guess. Good luck, and if I can help, let me know. Helen M |

... I got an email from an associate of Howard Berkowitz asking me to call Howard. He's in a mess and needs advice, and if anyone is anywhere near Virginia, possibly your help. Can't do much except purr (being in Oz & all), but the purrs are coming in abundance. Yowie |

I have full confidence that this group will be able to help Howard. He's always helped us. Tweed |

UPDATE Howard B needs your help!
On 2006-05-06, Monique Y. Mudama penned:
I got an email from an associate of Howard Berkowitz asking me to call Howard. He's in a mess and needs advice, and if anyone is anywhere near Virginia, possibly your help. Things are looking much better now, I think. Howard's ex-wife has offered to take the cats, which means they will be in Cape Cod. They also know her, so that will be less stressful than other arrangments. Mr. Clark still hasn't been captured; if he isn't by the time Howard needs to leave, a friend of his in the Baltimore area has offered to take Mr. Clark. Howard sounds a lot better this evening than he did this morning. He will call me so that I can let everyone know if Mr. Clark is found. He still is very interested in any pet shipping experiences and recommendations that anyone can make. It sounds like now it will be from Cape Cod to St. Louis, and also possibly from Baltimore if Mr. Clark doesn't make himself available this weekend. As for the several of you who have offered to help Howard financially, he says thank you but he thinks that part is under control. His most urgent need is for advice about getting the cats from point A to point B safely. -- monique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca |

The short story: his car had a spectacular mechanical failure while still in Arlington, and Howard spent a couple of days in the hospital. Mr. Clark freaked out at the movers, ran out the door, and won't come back. Poor Howard!! He has had so much misfortune in such a short time, and now this! Purrs for him to recover from the accident, get Mr. Clark back, and get them all moved safely! Joyce |

whether the aforementioned people really want to take on three cats, but Howard sounded much better and hopes that he'll figure something out tomorrow. Of course he's much better knowing that his Mr. Clark is safe. Purrs that the rest of his difficulties are eased quickly and smoothly. |

Great news! Thanks for keeping us updated. I hope things improve for Howard very soon and that his ex will take good care of the cats until he has arranged to ship them to their new home. Mr Clark, Ding and Rhonda are very much part of the RPCA family and we're all concerned that they should be safe, happy and taking good care of Howard. Tish |
