Title: Paws Inn, Sad news on the website... to be continued...
Post by: Daisymac on April 27, 2010, 12:56:11 PM
Found this on the Paws Inn website this morning:

Paws Inn to close


I`m afraid its one lot of bad news after another, many of you will know that we lost our beloved presidental cat Buster  some time ago, sadly we now have to report that our sweet girl Minimopsical was put to sleep with lung cancer, both helped to hold the humans together and worked tirelessly with so many orphaned kittens putting them through the schooling they would have receive from a mother cat, we are left a massive gap that can never be filled.

It is now with a very heavy heart that I announce that the decision has been made to close Paws Inn as soon as is practical. We will no longer be able to take in any new arrivals. We currently have a very large number of beautiful cats and kittens seeking wonderful homes and as these homes are found Paws Inn will cease to exist.

Thank you

I can't say I'm shocked because of Teresa's own health problems but it is a very very sad day for the cats of Weaverham  :'(

Very sad indeed, but not altogether surprising  :(

I think its time to consider all the amazing work Paws Inn has done over the years, and applaud T and everyone else involved for all their unwavering love, care and shere determination in helping the cats of Weaverham  :hug:

I am sure they are not happy to be closing, and I would like to congratulate them on all the success stories they have had.  :1st place:

I find it amazing that the "show has gone on" for so long with all the health problems encountered.   Your help will be missed by many I am sure.  :Sad Bye:

 :'( Ahhh very sad .... but as others have said not all together surprising.  I think it's about time T took a little bit of time for herself and tried something new (REST & RELAXATION  ;) )

Teresa, you and your crew have done an amazing job over the years. Well done for being such a haven for those poor cats that needed to have their faith in humanity reaffirmed. Now enjoy your relaxation time! :hug:

So sad but think of all the special cats who have found their way to Paws Inn and had the Aunty T treatment - they are the lucky ones some we know about others have left lasting legacies - Buster, Dear Minip and of course their memories will stay with us forever

I'm sure a very heart breaking decision for all invlvoed at the Inn :hug: :(#

I know we are faraway but if any of your ferals need a home then I'm sure the Clan have room and something can be arranged - I did say I wanted a Paws Inn baby or 2 and will stand by that statement as sadly ferals aren't for normal homes - unless you live here at the Clan :-[

All the best to you Teresa, many of us are grateful for all the hard work you have put in over the last 10 years at Paws Inn and you have done your best in that time to do everything you can for cats in need.  Your health is the important thing now and I would like to thank you as one of many people who have adopted Paws Inn cats over the years and now has two loving furry friends for life.

All the very best of luck to you in finding homes for the cats that are still there and a big thank you from Momo and Cassidy whose lives would have been very different without your love, care and patience.

Wishing you well for the future,

Big hugs,

Carolyn

A sad day indeed but sure its time for teresa to take a long needed break.

So much love and care to so many cats, and so many furry lives helped or saved.

Well, that is an interpretation  :innocent: ;)

Perhaps you might amend the notice on your website when you get a spare moment.
