Excellent post, Renee. Without fanfare you have done so much unheralded work to bring her to justice. One extra point. If more than one (ONLY 1) state in the country had anti-animal-hoarding laws to prevent the abuses seen then it would be easier to deal with folks like Jen Morrison. If you aren't in IL then YOUR STATE has no laws in this regard. Here is information to get to your governor, your state legislators, and the depts which handle animals in your state: http://www.tufts.edu/vet/cfa/hoarding.html http://www.tufts.edu/vet/cfa/MunicipaLawyer.pdf http://www.legis.state.il.us/publicacts/pubact92/acts/92-0454.html http://www.mhsource.com/pt/p000425.html The ONLY way this is going to become reality is if ALL of us pursue this! Waiting for the next guy to do something results in exactly what we have now -- only ONE state with any such legislation. Spirit doesn't want fur-angel company who have also died from hoarding abuses. In memory of Spirit here is something each of us can actually DO! [Posted in FML issue 3864]
