This guy has until 5pm Saturday to come up with something like $975 or be homeless. He has two very darling cats.

I had this crazy thought that if 980 people sent him a dollar on paypal he could keep his apartment and not give up his dear cats. I mean, click on the link in that thread and tell me you could stand to see those two dear cats be homeless.

he's paypallable at "coinneach@adelphia.net". So... if you would like, and you want to be generous, please send him just one measly little dollar. Just one.
