HELP! Sitter needed for my two fur babies.
I am in a very bad situation here and need to get out of this house. I won't bore you
with all the details, but I will be going into a women's shelter for a short time until I can find work and get settled again...no cats allowed... :-( What I need is someone to take my two boys for that time. I''m hoping that it won't be any longer than 2 to 4 weeks, if all goes according to plan. Brat (Siamese) was declawed on all 4 feet by his previous owner. Linus (Maine Coon) has not been declawed. Both are neutered and both are well behaved. You can see them by clicking on the link to my Yahoo album below. I am looking for someone in Red Deer, Alberta, as that is where I will be moving from here, and I would like to at least be able to visit with them. I will miss them terribly and I'm certain that I won't be able to sleep without my bed companions, but as long as I know I can get them home again, I will get by. Is there anyone in Red Deer who would be willing to help me out here?....Please? -- Hugs, Lynn *strip CLOTHES to reply* Homepage: http://members.shaw.ca/sewfinefashions/ See my boys: http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/papavince_29/ |

The shelter I volunteer at (Illinois, US) has a program where we keep a pet for a time (up to 2 months) for victims of domestic abuse. Perhaps the pet shelters there have a similar program...? Good luck. ------------------------------------------------- ~kaeli~ Hey, if you got it flaunt it! If you don't, stare at someone who does. Just don't lick the TV screen, it leaves streaks. http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace ------------------------------------------------- |

I''m hoping that it won't be any longer than 2 to 4 weeks, if all goes according to plan. snip Based on Kaeli's post I looked up Red Deer's Humane Society and found this: Women's Shelter Program/Service: Description: Provides foster care for the family pet(s) when women need to go to the Emergency Women's Shelter. Goals: Studies indicate that the family pet is often the tool used to control and/or abuse a family member. If the woman and her children have the option of a safe place for their pet, it increases the likelihood of them seeking safe shelter. Some will return to the violent relationship for fear of the family pet(s). from http://www.reddeerspca.com/programs.htm If that fails, I'm in Winnipeg and if you could find a way to get them here, I would take them for a few weeks. My cat wouldn't be too happy about losing her room, but she'll survive :-). Good luck, and let me know if you need any help. rona |

I think the other suggestions were good ones. Any family who can take them? I suppose not since you would have gone that route first. |
