Well, I'm done crying for now and back to work for this little guy.
The gal who went to try to buy him yesterday was quite affected by what she saw. She has decided to help as best she can. She has friends who will stop by and also gave me the name of a vet who does NOT tolerate neglect and happens to go to the dairy farm down the road from Ringo at least once a week.
This is a very difficult situation and while most rescues are done quietly with the comfort zone taken care of for the owner this one is different.
After lots of crying and praying it hits me.....this isn't one to keep quiet. I believe, with all my heart, that the more people who inquire about Ringo the better. They think their dirty little secret is still safe. They think that I am the ONLY one that cares. It is my belief that Ringo has a chance if the owners know that I am not the only one.
