A Special Plea

Hey guys,

I recently received an email that shot so close to home, it tugged at my heartstrings. I will just make this short as I can because it is a long, emotional journey to relate about this elderly couple.

They are both diabetic, but Teresa’s husband is further into the disease than she is. He recently lost his leg to diabetes and while he was hospitalized he also developed the flesh eating disease that destroyed his shoulder. Dealing with this incredible pain, brought on a heart attack causing him to have to go through a heart bypass surgery.

Because his skin is in such a fragile state, they have to find a home for their two cats Sissy and Loki. They are siblings and three years old. They contacted me to see if I could take them. I can’t but while I was meeting with them Teresa told me the local humane society said they would take both cats but they needed to come up with $100.00. They don’t have the money- they are barely surviving as it is.

So what I would like to do, on their behalf, is try to raise the money for them and take their cats into the shelter as well. Neither can drive right now because of health issues.

If anybody can help this couple and make a donation, please do so. We don’t have it in our Kitty, or else I would cough it up quicker than a hairball. But my heart just went out to this couple based on their situation. I had to try and do something: This is my try. Thanks for reading this-

  1. I can see why this means so much to you, for several reasons. I’ll be sending something. Can you put it on your Facebook page? I will share it.
