Fire at cat rescue kills founder and 100 cats

[Catherine]

The rescue efforts still go on.

I did not realize how elaborate the shelter was. It seems to have had a number of buildings.
They think cats are still hiding in the complex. The community response is incredible. They are getting supplies, volunteers, anything they need.
All the cats that can be found will be found and treated.

So far they have no information on the cause. I would hate to think that it was deliberate.
The community response is so positive that is seems unlikely that it was deliberate.
I am sure they will investigate thoroughly.

I wonder  if they will be able to keep the shelter going. They had a board of directors and some structure.
It would be a fitting tribute to the founder if they could open the new shelter that he planned.

If I find out anything else, I will post it.
