I didn't really mean to disparage them.  They do a lot of good for animals, and they do a lot of education about the plight of animals.  I didn't want them to solve my problem for me.  But I was really hoping they could help relieve some of the burden so that I could do right by all the...

ME TOO!!  Isn't that what really can get ya down sometimes w/ all these cats...the feeling like you are in it totally by yourself?!  Wouldn't it be great if we could start our own gated community, where only we and all our cats could live there, and we'd be each others cat sitters and...
