getting to the end of my tether....
I am so tired! I just don't know how much longer I can take care of X... I've
started trying to find him a home, but it just seems like every day is endless, and no one wants a cat with health problems. What am I going to do if no one will take him? At this point, I would settle for someone taking him even for a couple of weeks. My house looks like a tornado hit it, and my other cats are starting to show signs of depression and anxiety -- I can't do this to them much longer. Feeling very depressed. -- M9 |

Can you connect with a rescue group for a foster care situation? How bout
calling The Humane Societies of New Jersey, Best Friends (in California, I believe) and other shelters (on a google search). Maybe if you can sponsor the cat, they can house the cat there and try to get the cat adopted out. |

For example, if this group is to provide help, we would need to know exactly what your cat is doing (other than the hint that your house looks like a tornado hit it), how long you have had the cat, what you have done to try to correct the problem, and any behavioral or environmental changes in both this cat and your other cats. Is this your most recent cat? The oldest? Or what?

Feeling very depressed. -- M9 I have 24 cats and have dealt with health and other issues non-stop for what seems like forever. Attitude is everything when you're in a situation such as mine, and I have found that acceptance of the situation regardless of what it entails and determination to figure out how to make things work goes a long way in helping to deal with things. If you are feeling depressed there may be an issue there that is also interfering with your abilities to cope. If you like, email me privately and I may be able to help you come up with some ways to cope with this situation better.

A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way." - W.H.

Holy Smoke -- I never did post the story here. Sorry everyone! I have been
reading so many cats newsgroups in the last couple of weeks that I don't know if I'm coming or going. I have put up a webpage with the basics at http://www.io.com/~minerva/mrx.html. Any comments welcome. Thanks -- M9 "Cat Protector" wrote in message news:2%QXb.44237$L_4.33614@okepread01...
