URGENT. Friends and rescue partners, many of you may be familiar with Anna Fiorelli, she was a local trapper and independent cat rescuer in the Orange area. Anna sadly passed away this week and leaves behind about 11 cats she rescued from the mean streets. I have helped Anna in the past with placing cats and she knew she was sick and was always afraid that her cats would end up in shelters if she passed but could not quite part with them in the moment. Please, please reach out to me directly 732.850.0779, I am working with Erica Cruz to see what we can do for her cats. We all have personal cats and love them and I am sure live with the fear that she was experiencing…so please in the spirit of community among those that love and live in the service of animals, can we pull together to get these cats placed? Our rescue can take 3-4 so that leaves about 6 or 7 cats in need of rescue. I have no details, etc…I am just in the gathering phase of getting a group of folks together that can help once we know more. Please step up for 1 or 2 of these cats and know we are doing the right thing. This is a sad situation and for those that knew Anna, she was a unique person with a big heart for cats, she dedicated her life to them let’s as a group of smart, talented and caring people do the same for her cats, I am sure they miss her terribly and sadly so many street cats she cared for will be left without an advocate. Let’s all take a moment and be grateful for people like Anna…it’s a very sad situation. Thank you.
