PLEASE HELP US!!!

Once again I am begging for help.

I can no longer afford to care for the animals I have left in the rescue. My husband lost his job and bailed and since July I have tried to keep things running here without him. He left July 23. I just cant do any more. This month I cannot pay the mortgage, again, or our electric bill. The foreclosure notices are coming now. If we don't have electricity, we have no heat. I don't have the money, I just don't have it. All of my money has gone to feed my animals and I am now faced with the proposition of placing them in shelters or trying to once again find rescues who will take them. I have been trying to do this for months, begging to place them, before things got to this point. Well, now I am at the point where they must have a place to go, weather it's a shelter here in this high kill state or rescues here or out of state. After Thursday this week, we have no heat and no electricity. And its cold here now. I have begged for months for help for them, knowing this day was coming and have gotten little to no response. The day is here, what do I do? I only have one other option and unless I absolutely have no other choice, I will not put them to sleep. But if I have to, I will. I will not let them freeze or starve. I will not take them to any of the shelters here and just abandon them, I would rather put them to sleep, it's more humane. So I am begging for help, even if you can take just one, it's one less I will have to try to save.

If you cannot help me, please, please pass this on and do not judge me. I have done the very best I can for these animals. I have lost my home, my husband and something so dear to my heart, my rescue. I have been called a hoarder, and judged harshly for being unable to do it alone. I have worked for 8 years rescuing the animals in the high kill shelters here. Some of them have been with me since Forever Homes inception, and some came the week before my husband left me. If I could change what has happened, I would. I cannot. I have no home and no hope for me, but they have a chance if I can find rescuers to take them. They deserve so much more than this. If I had known when I started this all those years ago, that this was going to happen, I would have never started to rescue animals. I would never have put them in this dangerous position. I put them here. I did this and now I have to try to help them out of this. I would rather die as to have something happen to them. Once they are safe, I will deal with me. Please dont respond if you are going to judge me, believe me, I have had a lot of things said to me, about me, by people who have never met me, and have never walked a day in my shoes. I need help for my animals, not criticisim. So, please pass this on, if you cannot help and if you can,
please email me at hissking@.... They are turning the electric off on Thursday and I have no choice but to let them.
I have cats and 3 dogs that need placement. Some seniors, some kittens, and 1 puppy. I have pics of most of them, if you think you can help, I will be glad to send them on to you. I am going to be closing the web site out this next week at Petfinder, but until then, many of them are there too. That is meowinc.petfinder.org
PLEASE HELP US!!! Thank you for all the years of help you all have already given.
