596.0. "I put my money where my mouth is!!" by MASTER::EPETERSON () Mon May 25 1987 21:33

    When I was very young, I had a little gray kitty named Missy.  At the
    time, it was very hard for me to pay for her shots and her general
    medical needs.  I would like to help someone else who would like
    a kitty.  
    
    Here's the deal -  I will pay for the first year of shots plus the
    nuter/spay charges of a kitty that is obtainted from "free outlet"
    of cats.  Please contact me for details at the above shown "mail"
    address.
    
    or my phone is - 617-481-1283
    
    Do I hear anyone else out there on the "FELINE" NETWORK THAT WANTS
    TO DO THE SAME???

    On second thought, just call me at home.  I am not the only one
    who uses this "login" and it's probably best to keep this on my
    own resources.  Call me at 617-481-1283.

    Well,
    
    On Saturday I drove down to Hartford (my old stompin' grounds) to
    meed Karen a recent University of Connecticut graduate.  She has
    just rented her first apartment which is close to her first full
    time job.  We went over to the CSPCA where she picked out her first
    kitten, Amanda, who is the sweetest little brown and cream tabby
    you could hope to find.  You should have seen those two together.
    I wished I had my camera!  Karen's sister works here at Dec in the
    Stow facility, and that's how we got together.  And - guess what,
    guys.  Yours truely did not walk out of the CSPCA empty handed (some
    people should be locked up!!!).  I am now additionally owned by
    a darling gray female named "Justa Graykee" (get it? "Just a gray
    kitty"??).  Dr. Nelson checked her out on Sunday, but said she was
    too little to take blood for the FEVL test, so poor little Justa
    will be spending her time in the downstairs den for a while.  She
    seems pleased as punch, though, just to be out of "jail" :-).

    You are funny Marion!  How many do you have now?  I would
    like to sponsor an 'ownership' myself, but I don't know
    how to go about it.  Any ideas?

    re: .4
    
    Donna,
    
    I "only" have five kittys.  I'll have "only" four later on this
    week since I just sold the last of this year's Abyssinian kittens.
    A tail count of four is managable for me.  You know what my major
    dificulty with keeping a large number of cats?  I _hate_it_ when
    the house smells like a litter box!  I suppose one solution would
    be to quit feeding the little guys, but then I suppose they'd all
    go and get crankey about the situation so I guess I better just forget
    that :-D.                                                      
    
    Back to the subject, Donna.  In order to set up this "sponsorship"
    (Neat word for it.  Why didn't I think of that?) all I did was  
    enter my note here along with how go get in touch with me.  The
    rest is history.  I've got to tell you that I havn't felt *so* good
    about doing a thing in a very long time.  In fact the girl indicated
    to me that she intends to do the same for someone else when she
    becomes more established.  I guess good feelings like that
    are catching.
