8/11/23 – I apologize for the multiple posts but the cases have been so overwhelming like no other year we’ve been in existence. I want to recognize Hammy. He was rescued in February, 2022 with another stray cat. He, along with the other cats, was a pretty bad shape and his poor ear appeared to have been infested with mites. His rescuer, Melissa, who we’ve worked with for multiple rescues, contacted us for help. Hammy, although a feral, was treated and Melissa decided she would not release him. Since that time Melissa shared her home with him and although never truly socialized, she gave him love. Over the past few months, Hammy’s health began declining and he was taken to the vet even though he was very difficult to trap — in the house!. This month, Melissa came home from work and Hammy was found passed away. Our belief is that the life of any living creature should be remembered at the time of death and so today we remember Hammy. May he rest in peace and be with our many fur babies who have passed before him. – diana

I love you my sweet Hammy. 

Thanks everyone for your kind words. His life was not long enough , and although I could not touch him, he was mine and I will forever miss him.- Melissa
