King George, VA - Dying Vietnam vet Kenny Garner wants to see his cats find homes

Kenny Garner of King George, a Vietnam War veteran who is suffering from the effects of Agent Orange, cares for 45 cats—15 indoors and 30 outdoors. As his health deteriorates, he wants to find people to adopt his pets. (Photo by Suzanne Carr Ross/The Free Lance-Star)
The rescue group St. Seton's Orphaned Animals is trying to help disabled Vietnam Veteran, Kenny Garner find homes for his cats. They are all fully vetted, Fiv/Felv tested neg., etc.  Their photos can be viewed at http://www.saintseton.com/Adoption.html.  Mr. Garner is about to be evicted and these young, friendly, gorgeous babies are on their way to a kill shelter.  PLEASE, if your group could just take ONE, that is one less who will die.

“Poor Mr. Garner is dying, is afraid of losing his home, can’t pay his bills, but he is most worried about the welfare of his cats and two dogs,” said Cathy Markwith, a volunteer with KGARL. “It is emotionally draining to see this man that served his country, but can’t get the help he deserves for the short time he has left.” - BY CATHY DYSON, THE FREE LANCE-STAR  Click here to read the rest of his story http://blogs.fredericksburg.com/newsdesk/2012/01/29/dying-vietnam-vet-in-king-george-wants-to-see-his-cats-find-homes/
