I agree with Mazza....someone qualified, available 24hrs on the island is much preferrable to someone on the mainland who only visits ocassionally. And as to the pet carriers...what a great idea! Even if you don't take home a pet, you could leave it for the vet to use as temporary quarters after surgery until the shelter gets built. That seems to be a big problem for her...no where to keep the animals for observation after neutering/surgery. Pet crates would be a prefect solution!

Do you think I should warn the distributor of Belikins about my plans....he might need a larger warehouse!
