It's all well and good if she can take care of all those cats. Sadly, most
"hobbyists" can't but they don't realize it. She doesn't seem to be one of
those, thankfully. And the video report indicated all her cats are
spayed/neutered and have county tags.

She is one of the good ones that is why I have been following the story
it all started out by the county lying and saying that she did not take care
of the cats but when a news crew went there she had complete documentation
for all cats when the council was confronted the news reporter had the door
slammed in her face. She even went of Dr.Phil and the city people were
caught lying on national TV. It all has to do with the land being wanted by
a developer

She has suffered a lot BS neighbors lying county workers and a mysterious
fire but she won

Sometimes, good does win. Rarely it seems these days.

I just did the math on 150 cats; between litter, wet & dry food a day. It
amounts to about $75 a day per cat for wet food (that's based on one can a
piece - not including any kind of special food for some!). $75 a day for
dry food, again, not counting on any special needs kitties. $96 on litter a
day. $246 a day - and that's not including vet bills!!!!

In her defense, this is purely based upon what my 3 masters consume daily.
I divided what we spend and multiplied that by 150.

I think if she can afford it and she's saving precious lives, more power to
her. But dang! That's a lot of money a day!
