OK....I feel like this is a sign, but heres the deal...

I have a trip planned from Virginia to New York THIS SUNDAY. 

I am going with three friends to see a Madonna concert!!!  YAY!

We only have a 4 door sedan to take so the car is full of US and our LUGGAGE....

BUT...

IN this situation with all the ratties needing transports....I feel it necessary for me to drive separately and get the ratties where they need to be....I can meet up with my friends later...

Gas is expensive and I still feel obligated to pitch in 1/4 of the gas that THEY will be using (they may not go for it) so the gas part will be rough but I just feel like I need to do this....

I will take as many of those babies as I can fit!

I just talked to my vet, and it's lookin like he'll take 1 or 2 to foster, also.  HE IS AWESOME!! 

We can probably get 2 legs from you down in NYC, Mary, if this works out... one to Poughkeepsie and then either Michelle or I can meet them, but with all the dogs, we'll need people with vans..........or SUVs or something.......

well Sue just called me and said that they have many dogs traveling to NY. I am in touch with my uncle in NY and hoping to go up on Saturday and stay with him that night and then meet up with my friends on Sunday. Looks like it may even be like 6 crates!!! WOW.....pretty neat that the timing worked out this way....amazing

would it be tacky or terrible to ask for donations for gas for this trip? it is going to be over 700 miles round trip that I wasnt planning on...I hate to ask, because i feel like it almost defeats the purpose of VOLUNTEERING, but times are so tight right now i just know I cant afford an extra 3 tanks of gas on top of normal. Maybe those of you who are too far away to help directly....grr...i feel bad, again because the money could be going directly to the dogs, vetting and such....sheeesh....

YAY! Well, I told Sue that I could probaby fit about 6 crates. I could rent a van if necessary I guess and just turn it in in NY, cause I will ahve a ride home...but I dont know that I will need more than 6 crates because some of them can be in together, like i think there are some littermates. Potty breaks wil be interesting! LOL
Thank you everyone for all the support and encouragement ---financial and otherwise! Now lets GET THESE DOGGIES TO NY!!!

oh...and...
Sue asked me if I could come on Saturday and I am more than willing to but I didnt have a place to stay Sat night and I cant afford a hotel...but...I have family in NY and CT so I am working on getting in touch with them. My uncle lives in bedford corners, NY but he will not be home and my grandmother and other uncle live in Bloomfield, CT so I will check with her. Then I can visit family and help ratties in one trip!
Sue, would the route to Bloomfield CT provide an ok meetup place possibly?

Maybe rent one of the small U-Haul-It truck/vans. I see the $19.95 per day all over the sides of them. This is a wonderful thing! Get those ratties safe!
