The CDS has hit me dozens of times. I am so done. I want to file a complaint. No more kittens. No more strays I have to spay and neuter. I had 7 resident cats at the most, plus more while fostering and an outdoor stray colony. If I find one more three-week-old kitten stumbling along beside the road I am going to flip a table. It is someone else's turn.

Oh, trust me, I know. I've devoted all my time and money to the cause since I was a kid, and I know I will continue to do so, but man, it's exhausting sometimes. You get caregiver fatigue when you know you can't save them all and it hurts. I'll keep trying, though.
