I absolutely agree with Diane and your husband. I think it's wonderful
of you to want to call attention to the plight of the innocent, but as
Diane says, don't call attention to you and yours in the process. I'd
make the letter a lot more general, leaving out many of the details that
might call personal attention to you.

Debbie, it's a great letter. I'm just thinking maybe you'd be safer
leaving out the details of your various rescued pets. Maybe just say
you couldn't take them in because you already have the legal limit of
happy, healthy, neutered, vaccinated and deeply loved pets, all of
whom are former rescues just like these babies. That way, you
wouldn't be calling undue attention to yourself in case you're over
the limit, and you're not lying about anything (you DO have the legal
limit, you just leave off the "and then some!"), and you're
demonstrating by your own example what responsible pet ownership means.

This is a letter to the editor of our local paper concerning the
kittens we found dumped over the weekend. My husband is afraid it will
cause trouble if they print it with a name and town. What do you
think? Myself, I doubt anyone will really pay attention. I am curious
to know what you guys think.
Thanks for the input.
Debbie
