The commonwealth attorney said they were recommending such harsh punishment for a first time offender because she had done so much damage, even if much of it could not be proved, to Rikki’s Refuge, who was good people doing good things!! Yeahhhh!!!!! Her office and the judge too, did an outstanding job on this case!!! Thank you!!!!

Oh but Hee hee hee wanna hear something real funny. Mum’s going crazy. But this is good. She’s been having to do a lot of hospital duty at night and now even with every body ok and not needing to be checked every ½ hour all night, she can’t sleep. She keeps waking up. Now she must be sleep walking. Lena asked mum this morning why she served breakfast before Lena got in. Mum said HUH??? Lena says somebody came in the kitchen, opened up cases and cases of food and fed everybody in the 9th Life Center and the hospital an whole extra serving of canned food. Mum had no memory of this. She does remember waking up and finding herself in the hospital before she’d realize all was ok and she could go back to bed. Then once she saw lights on and knew Lena was in she was able to zonk out for a couple hours!!! If your mom has to go crazy or starts sleepwalking - I guess it’s good she’s feeding you!!!
Oh and SUNDAY, March 6th, David needs 4 or 5 people to help at Rabbit Rotunda II. Tember, he said you and your husband were WONDERFUL last week, please come back!!!! Please come help raise the roof!!!!

Hi Bela, welcome to Good Morning Good News, tell me about yourself.
Hi Vincent! Well, I was a feral kitty living in the woods behind Gilbert's house. Something happened to my mommy. Gilbert's mommy fed me and said nice things to me (I could tell by the tone of her voice). It got to be winter time and it was cold. Then I hurt my leg and Gilbert's mommy was worried about me. She trapped me (that was scary!!) and brought me to the vet. When the vet opened the trap, I found that I could fly!! Fly up the walls and around the room! Well, I was checked out and Gilbert's mommy learned I was a boy (she called me a girl). The vet said I was too feral to be a domestic cat. Gilbert's mommy's friends had agreed to adopt me. They took me to their vet, who said, no, this cat is very feral. Probably the best you can hope for is a TNR----and I'd go back to Gilbert's woods. I was neutered and went to live with Phil and Debby in a huge house. I discovered that it was really nice to be indoors and have regular meals. After a couple of months I met my 2 brothers and sister. I have a great life and love my mommy, daddy, and siblings.
Sorry----I've never been interviewed before and I probably talked way too much!
Love, Bela
