Blind cat rescue
I just bought something from Ebay, and at the bottom of the page there
was a little checkbox saying "I would like to donate amount to the Blind Cat Rescue", with a pulldown menu where you could choose either $1 or $2 (sort of a weird choice). So I went to the website to check them out, and they seem like a great organization. They save blind cats that have been surrendered, or dumped, or however they ended up homeless. They try to get the cats either a good home, or into a no-kill shelter. Just wondered if anyone here has heard of this group. MaryL? Anyone else? Here's the link to their site. Lots of cute pictures, plus an adorable video of blind cats playing. You get to see one cat make a long jump from the floor straight into a hole on the top of one of those cat tunnel things, and the cat went right through it! http://www.blindcatrescue.com -- Joyce - Your mom and I are going to divorce next month. - What??? Why! Call me please? - I wrote Disney and this phone changed it. We are going to Disney. -- damnyouautocorrect.com |

They certainly are enjoying themselves I love the crackly-sound that cat tunnel makes. Persia's crackle sack used to sound like that, but after a few washings it lost it's crackle. She doesn't care; she loves to snooze on it Jill |

They have an appealing web site, and I certainly like the concept of having a home for blind cats that are homeless. You may remember that someone else originally had Duffy and then returned him to a *kill* shelter after a couple of years. He had been in a cage in the shelter for several months when I found him. Their policy is to keep healthy cats "for at least 14 days," so I will be grateful forever that shelter staff kept Duffy for so long while they tried to find a new home. The situation seen in the web site would be a much more desirable arrangement if the photos are accurate depictions. You might be able to find more information if you Google for it. If you learn anything more, I would be very interested in hearing about it. MaryL |
