These were the words Mike spoke to me first thing this morning. I looked up at him puzzled, then smiled as I got the connection. Last night, we watched the Nat. Geo special, The Lady with 700 cats!

I was totally mesmerized at Lynea’s operation in Central California and I chuckled a lot as she gave it to the callers pretty good over the phone when they called her to take their now unwanted kittens. She always took the kittens but on the stipulation that the caller had to bring the mother and get her spayed when he dropped the kittens off! You go girl!

None of the cats are caged (unless they are new to the compound or ill) and there were more than a few humorous moments when the staff went searching for a gray kitty the owner who surrendered him wanted him back! Thankfully he was microchipped, so they finally found him.

She touched me deep and her website is here if you haven’t seen it before. I won’t be able to rescue 700 when and if my sanctuary does open, but I can at least help out 100 if not a few more.

Right now my biggest challenge is getting through all the red tape and the fees of going non-profit. There are fees to the State, the IRS, the Justice Department and of course to the wonderful man handling all that red tape to begin with. I don’t have 700 to go- I have 800- dollars that is to get this all finished. But God willing and the creek don’t rise- I’ll see what I can do.

Happy day everyone. This is the last day of the Jamboree in town and most of the crazies will be gone by tomorrow and the normal crazies will come back outside of their home and resume their life. Gotta love small towns!
