Out of 4 packages I sent, to different shelters, 2 responded.  I don't
expect more than an acknowlegement, but I do expect that.  I took the
time to pick specific things, wrap them and mail them.  I realize that it
is only a tiny drop in the bucket, as far as the shelters are concerned,
and that they are really busy, but CJ from 24 Karat, and Claudia from
Oxford Ferret Rescue, took the time not only to respond, but also to send
me pics of the babies with their gifts.  It was wonderful to get those,
and those will be the shelters I continue to give to.  The other 2 will
not even respond to email asking if they even recieved the packages I
sent.  I won't be sending anything else to them.
