Thank you for having such a kind heart to help the little kitten. Most people would’ve looked the other way. It breaks my heart.

Love your blog…I guess I’m now officially delurked! :-)

awww… I wish we were friends! I love this sweater and I’m all knocked up and could use it! ;-P

Sorry to hear about the kitten. It’s all somehow harder when it’s a wee one…

I will see if the Lawrence Humane ever does those in other counties near here…seems like when I went through training there they talked about how even though they were Douglas County they did things regionally tooo. I would be down for helping out too.

i love hte sweater!
i’m terribly sorry that you had the kitten experience. i hope the little guy is okay. i noticed that about people in missouri that i worked with. dogs are pets that live in your yard. and cats are mousers. nothing more. surprises me that there are siamese running around though. i’m glad you stopped and gave the guy some help. even if he didn’t make it, he got some loving.
i think the clinic idea is a good one. and i think getting local groups and vets to volunteer and help out, it’d be a good idea! even if they don’t take advantage of it ths year, maybe over hte next couple years it would get bigger and more custom for people to neuter. the door just needs to be opened!!

The sweater is lovely, but I don’t understand why you say you’re fat. Maybe you’re being tongue-in-cheek, but I think you’ve said this before and I have to tell you, you most certainly are not fat! :o)

Kudos for the spay/neuter clinic idea! Get your local Girl Scouts & Boy Scouts involved for getting the word out or something. Poster contest? Girl Scouts at the junior high & high school level are big on community service projects, and many are also looking for special projects to do as silver or gold award (GS equivalent of Eagle Scout). Local 4H group might also be interested in helping.

Incidentally, just two days ago I rescued a little blue-eyed siamese kitten from the side of the highway. He wasn’t hurt yet and is currently living the good life at my house with undivided attention from my 13 yr old daughter and our Boston Terrier.

Please let me know if you need help with getting donations etc… for your SNAP type project. That really makes me so sad for YOU not only the smooshed animals and ones that have to have so many babies.
I’m happy to help with donations of time or money or both. :)
