I am dachshund rescue and all breed rescue referral for adoptions and placements. from iguanas to horses. I have a gentleman that has contacted me about wanting to adopt a rescued maine coon cat and has asked me to locate information on a close rescuer. We live in Central Texas. Please respond and advise as to whether or not there is a rescuer near here.

Thank you!

MCARN (Maine Coon Alliance Rescue Network) at: http://mainecoonalliance.vjungle.com/rescue.htm , may have someone in your area, or may be able to co-ordinate transportion of a rescued MC to Central Texas.

You should check out the MCARN e-mail list at MCRescue@onelist.com, which provides information to prospective adopters and rescue workers. I will forward your request to the list.

You may also want to check www.petfinder.com and www.petshelternetwork.com for listings in local shelters, if you haven't done so already.

Let me know if you need additional information or assistance. Deb Clark

We have an adult female spayed, declawed maine coon who needs a home. She needs to be the "princess cat" who gets all the attention. She is beautiful and very healthy w/all shots up-to- date. We live in Plano, TX a suburb of Dallas.
