It is always the same this time of year, so we just need to support each other and keep each other going. It'll get better soon!  :naughty:  :hug: :hug:

I wish I lived nearer to some of you so that I could help.  I feel useless reading these and wanting to help.
I live in Wigan  :'(
Anyway if I win the lottery either,  I promise to pay all your vets bills and pay some money in advance at the vets for you.

We are getting very few calls for rehoming, unless of course they want a kitten, they are still coming, but we have no kittens. Dont know why people wont consider one of the young adults we have in, and poor Moses has been here since January. I hope one of these weeks will be a good one where we get loads of homing enquries, but the places will be filled pretty much immediately. One of the rescues in my area is even having issues homing kittens
Please spay your cat

Despite homing our diabetic Charlie yesterday, we took in one FIV puss and one hyperthyroid one.  She is on meds for 3wks to see if we can turn her round.. Our last vets bill for one vet was over 1300.00 and that was just for one month.. !

It never stops!
Cannot save the world, but if everyone does something we can have a jolly good job trying too....

If I ever win the lottery Ron, I'll sort your bills out as well as mine, you do a sterling job and they'd be lost without you  :hug:  :hug:

Well I have decided after sorting out the ones I'm dealing with at the moment, I'm having a break.  I have been non bloody stop for weeks, not had any offers of help from local rescues for help............hello, I'm chocca as well plus I have a family to look after  :sneaky:  I've had a banging head for 2 days and have no energy whatsoever plus the fact I aint sleeping  :tired:  Going to the docs on Friday in the hope he'll give me something and I can start getting back on track again  :tired:

Same here, 45 in at the moment, and have been given a call by a Housing Officer about a house with 15 cats and kittens that need to be taken in ASAP.  The year seems to have started late but it sure is making up for it now. :tired:
