Many cats. 👍😽

…fulfilling a lifelong dream.

Do you have a timetable and running?

We’ve had a hard time finding a contractor to do the finish out of the tack shed and enclose the area for the cats. After doing rescue for so long, I have very specific ideas about what works and doesn’t work. I think we have finally found the right person to do the project. I hope so, at least. So the next step in the time table is pretty much up to him getting the area ready. Once that is done, we will move the cats and I will move to the property.

I have a sister who is battling breast cancer successfully thankfully. She has to do some radiation treatments and once those are complete, she will come and live at the property with me. I have a daughter and son-in-law who are also a part of this and they will use the property also to get out of the city on weekends, etc.

It’s been a joint project and it has humbled me and gratified me that others are willing to go on this journey with me.

…for updates.

I'm so so happy for you! I know it's been a long haul. Congrats.

Thank you for always being the friend I’ve needed when I needed to talk about stuff, scream and cry, etc.

I would love for you to visit if that opportunity ever presented itself.

I cannot tell you how happy i am to hear this, for you and the precious cats.

I'm here anytime.

I am so happy your dreams are being realized.

Enjoy your new world

It may come to that. We are trying to budget very carefully but materials are constantly going up.

started and ran became too unreliable. So, we moved to the countryside to finally have a retirement. Didn't work out!!! The locals heard about all the cats I moved here with and in no time we were drowning in felines again !!! I had to stop rescuing for many reasons. But, I can appreciate how excited you are... Congratulations !!!

We closed intake several years back knowing we were working toward doing this. There’s been the occasional “found” one which we always spay/neuter, etc. and try to find a home for. But the goal was to stop intake so that we outlive the cats.

We will always be involved in TNR and I am making sure that our move to the rural area is not being announced in any way. The cat area will be shielded from view.

Somehow though, I know, they always find you!

I hope it all goes well for you. May the hickups be few along the way.

We are that kind of family.

Thank you.

I wish you all the best. Cats need people like you!!! Blessings and Success!!!

Hope your stuff is going well!

Nothing excites me more than when someone accomplishes their dreams. Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I could explain - which would bore everyone to pieces - the days, the nights, the hours, the minutes spent thinking, wondering, asking people questions, learning, failing, etc., etc., I could explain the constant tears of gratitude.

It’s been a long road and the fact that the hopeful ending is in sight is very humbling.

But no saint here. I am among many here who understand the pangs we feel trying to help the helpless. There’s not a DU’er here who wouldn’t do the same thing given the opportunity.

I am in good company.

Congratulations and wishes for success in this new endeavor!
