"Yes Gin, I heard there are three options up for discussion. We are both lucky we were at the shelter when it was managed by staff in the same caring way that it is managed now."

"I agree Gracie, because we were both there for more than a month and we were both very timid and needed a lot of TLC. It was reassuring to receive such good care from the staff and volunteers each day."

"Yes Gin, I enjoyed my cuddles in the cattery and I bet you enjoyed your daily walks and pats."

"Yes Gracie, the staff and volunteers certainly helped us both to come out of our shells and to learn to trust humans again. The local vet visit each week ensured we were healthy and fully vaccinated too."

"Gin, weren't we fortunate to be adopted by a kind and understanding couple. I got to meet you and we are such a happy family now."

"Yes we are Gracie. I wonder what would have become of us if we had been sent to Sydney Dogs and Cats Home after being at the shelter for two weeks when we were both still very timid. I hate to think what might have happened."

"Gin, let's hope common sense prevails and our human friends carefully consider the options being put forward. Option 1, importantly, would appear to have the welfare and best interests of our fellow shelter animals at heart."
