What a weekend! Good gravy! I don't even know where to
begin.
So as luck would have it, and
boy was it luck, I now have a new cat mobile. All that stress and worry
about finding something to replace the Jeep that was on its last leg last
Monday has lifted. Out of the
goodness of his heart, Jim Moran, a kind and wonderful man I had the good fortune
of meeting a few years back, donated his good, used vehicle for a very small dollar
amount. I’m still pinching myself to
realize it’s all real. His generosity
allows me to COMFORTABLY continue to do what I do on a daily basis – EVEN WHEN
I’M SICK. L To go out to 19 different locations in Rochester
at 3:45 am. every single day and feed over 100 cats. My body aches a little more every year, as I’ve
been doing this for over 20 years now, and having a reliable vehicle means
EVERYTHING to me. I don’t think I will ever be able to thank
someone with a heart so generous, but I will never stop trying. Jim has a beloved cat named Baroness VonHurstbourne,
and a love of Scrabble. He is always
looking for a worthy opponent, so anyone game, let me know! Thank you Jim for your extreme kindness.
Another act of kindness is by Walt Simoni. Walt is always there to lend me a hand, and
when he heard about the cat mobile, he began a quest to help finance one for
me. He enlisted a friend’s help and
started a Go Fund Me page, and the following is a link to that. As the new vehicle will not need financing, I
don’t need funds for that, but can always use help with gas due to driving
around every day for an hour and half, and of course transportation when
getting cats spayed, neutered, and adopted.
So thank you Walt, for your generosity and thoughtfulness.
There are SO many kind and generous people I’ve met on this
journey. Now, if someone could just
start a fund for cloning me so that I can sleep in some morning, that would be
wonderful!
Tomorrow: updates on Muffin,
Hermie, Parsley and Chewy! Also, a story
about a woman I met on the streets Thursday morning – and another on
Friday! Busy out there these days! And the repo woman this morning! So much happening!
Have a great day!
