That person turned around and asked someone else to care for them, and that person didn't.

for Whiskerville. It sounded at the time like this was a decent operation - wonder what happened?

My sister runs a wildlife and domestic rabbit rescue/rehab in Texas in her own home. Even so, she often has to leave for extended periods -- family events, conferences, out of state rescues -- and depends on others (paid and unpaid) to care for the animals and facility while she is gone. Most rescue facilities depend on such caretakers, and smaller rescues often have the hardest time finding dependable people to do that work.

With that said, even when she is there at the rescue, my sister loses domestic rabbits on almost a daily basis. Animals that are in rescues are most often the unadoptable, including the aged and the chronically ill -- the first to die even if the rescue's care is good.

Like too many people involved in rescue work, this woman sounds like she wanted to do something for unwanted cats and found herself overwhelmed and understaffed/underfunded for the task.

has had her troubles before. Selling dogs. Also, the place has appeared vacant for quite some time according to people who have passed by. I wish someone had called sooner.
