I had a busy shift today.
We had a cat brought in this morning that had been run over. We telephoned the vet and the

cardboard box, the vet has informed us that the cat is stable and that it’s
owner has been traced!

I know exactly where we have gone wrong this month. All the Facebook hits, ringing ex members, annual members, postcards, building upthe 1 - 31 boxes, expired members should have been started earlieron in the month. They’re all flooding back in now but are making appointments for next week.
