You DESERVE the assistance of all right minded individuals.
The sole caveat is the obvious, "ONLY if to reunite them would do no harm".

[font=VERDANA, ARIAL, HELVETICA, SANS-SERIF][size=-1]It was still summer when Jim Hershberger packed up his 22 cats at his homestead in the Mentasta Mountains, hauled them down a mountain on a sled and loaded them into a raft. After a short river trip, he drove 250 miles to Anchorage, where he moved into a friend's shipping container.[/size][/font]
[font=VERDANA, ARIAL, HELVETICA, SANS-SERIF][size=-1]Hershberger's plan: get supplies, visit the veterans' clinic here and find a woman. He is no ordinary man, his cats are not ordinary cats, and so far, he hasn't found that extraordinary woman who wants the whole package.[/size][/font]
[font=VERDANA, ARIAL, HELVETICA, SANS-SERIF][size=-1]Instead, the city broke his heart.[/size][/font]
[font=VERDANA, ARIAL, HELVETICA, SANS-SERIF][size=-1]Hershberger is fighting for his felines -- talking to reporters, seeking legal help, painting "Free my cats now" on his vehicle -- after they were seized Jan. 14 in what the city says is an ongoing animal cruelty investigation. A police officer found the cats in crates inside Hershberger's gray Toyota hatchback, parked outside the Conex where Hershberger and his dog Sheba were staying. It ranged between 5 degrees below zero and 5 above in the vehicle, police said.[/size][/font]
