Erie Canal

The superhighway of pre-Civil War America, this marvel of human engineering and labor, built from Albany to Buffalo, opened up America's frontier to the west.

In September a family friend passed and left behind 4 cats. None were socialized to anyone but her. It was a difficult situation, they needed to be caught before the house was sold and cleaned out. Lollypop Farms was fantastic, providing great advice on how to go about it, making a trap available, and even offering to pick them up. It took quite a while to capture the last one, but we did. I stopped in to check on them and learned all 4 had been adopted, with the bonded pair going to the same home. I couldnn't have asked for a better outcome to a sad situation.
