587.0. "HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!" by SQM::GREENBERG (The Human Bean Machine) Wed May 13 1987 15:34

    I have to find a home for two beautiful cats by this Friday and
    I just discovered this notesfile. These cats were sort of dumped
    on my girlfriend by a friend who moved away and couldn't take them
    and neither my landlord or my girlfriend's landlord will allow cats
    in our apartments. My girlfriend's landlord has given her until
    this Friday to get rid of the cats.
    
    The cats are currently located in Manchester, N.H. They are 3 year
    old cats and I don't think they're any specific breed. They are
    strickly indoor cats that have been declawed on both front and hind
    paws. They have also been neutered and have had all their shots.
    
    These cats are both males (at least they used to be). They are short
    haired cats. One of them has a gold and white coat while the other
    has a grey and black tiger striped coat. I'd say they are average
    sized cats.
    
    These cats are both very friendly and very good with people. One
    of them is really laid back and loves to snuggle. The other is a
    bit on the hyper side and loves to play.
    
    I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help me find a home for
    these poor cats.

    Hi Mike--
    
    I have some people I know who were taking in some strays.  I don't
    have their phone number, but they are Steve and Karen Bernstein,
    and live in Londonderry, NH.  I would check the phone book;  mention
    my name if you like as we used to be neighbors.  They have a big
    farm, and go nuts over all animals, but have a particularly soft
    spot for cats.  The last I knew, they had 1 dog, 2 (or maybe 3)
    horses, 9 cats, and a bunny.  So please see how they feel about
    2 more family members.  And let me know how you do!
    
    Best of luck,
    
    Jane

    Unfortunately I was unable to find a home for these two cats. I
    ended up taking them to a place in Pepperell, Massachusetts called
    the Dayglen Kennels and Animal Shelter and Company. This is an Animal
    Shelter which guarentees that it will attempt to find a home for
    the animals you bring them indefinately. I.e., they guarentee that
    they will never put the animals to sleep. 
    
    If anyone out there decides they are interested in these cats, or
    if anyone knows anyone who is interested, please get in touch with
    me and I will call the Dayglen Kennels to find out if the cats are
    still available.
    
    I can be reached via e-mail at SQM::GREENBERG or at DTN 381-2657.

    I have been to the Animal Shelter in Pepperell many times.  It is
    a very good place as they really do try to keep the animals as long
    as possible.  I went there looking for a collie about three years
    ago and ended up bring home a female samoyed.  When I first saw
    her, she looked like she was a hundred years old and had never been
    brushed.  She had just been brought in that morning and they had
    not had a chance to clean her up.  If they took her in and did not
    intend to put her to sleep, I know they won't put these two cats
    to sleep.  A lot of people want cats that are declawed so that their
    furniture is not ruined.  ABANDONMENT --- I HATE that word.....
