Loss of cat advocate, Barbara Rockett

I was very saddened to read in the paper yesterday that Barbara Rockett had passed away. I only met her once briefly, at a Waverly meeting, but heard about her constantly, and her hard work to have Waverly initiate trap/neuter/return to help manage their local feral cats.

The village of Waverly released a tribute statement here. It's clear she will be missed.

Which reminds me that Waverly folks have been asking for some help and I have been remiss in contacting them, so I will get on that right now. It would be the least we could do to help people who are picking up this mantle for cats in the village.
