Probably a good idea to have a spot where people can find others willing to go some of the distance with our furry little friends, so let me be the first to step forward. :) TERRITORY: From Anywhere in New England, To Anywhere in New England (Maine, NH, VT, RI, CT, Massachusetts, but can't /stop/ anywhere in MA until gliders become legal there) BEST TIMES: Weekends, especially Fridays and Sundays as those are my days off CONTACT: EMail is best - jerrycnh@gmail.com. Also PM here but I might not see it right away. SPACE CONCERNS: I have two bonding pouches and a travel cage, so could take as many as 3 unbonded gliders at a time (could obviously take more if some of the gliders were bonded/able to travel together, or if the gliders come with their own bonding pouches.) Cannot transport any cage bigger than the crappy Pocket Pets one, no room in the car for it. Can make sure the gliders have apples for the trip and a water bottle to drink from while waiting for the next railroader to show up at a rendez-vous point. Am willing to part with the travel cage and one of the bonding pouches so long as the glider recipient ships them back to me at some point. GLIDER HOTEL: Given my location in the corner of the country, I'll probably be either the first or last leg of any given railroad trip, but on the off chance the gliders need to stay a night or two before moving on to someone else, I have my old Pocket Pets cage for them to stay in for a couple of days, as well as the travel cage if some need to be seperate. WILLINGNESS TO TAKE A GLIDER IN: I'm willing to consider being a final stop for any glider who doesn't have a loving home to go to, but only as a last resort right now as I generally would rather wait at least a year before adding to the group I already have, I'm still not the most experienced glider parent and want to really focus on these guys first. Come 2013 that will change and I'll be eager to talk about rescuing, say, a couple of gliders from the really really big Texas preserve if we get the railroad going strong enough. I think that covers everything someone might need to know about a glider volunteer. :) Maybe someday Kaz will make a map of us so we know what our coverage area is.

ResaJane Face Hugger 411 Posts Until mid July I will still be in California (do not lecture me please, I just recently rescured a 2 year old from a neglectful home and had NOT planned on having any gliders until I move to VA in July BUT I refused to leave the little guy with his owner knowing he'd probably be dead within months). I had to get him some buddies b/c he was depressed so now I have 3. With that said, I will be DRIVING from San Diego, Ca to Austin, Tx and staying about a week. I will then be driving to Tallahasse, FL for a few nights and then on to Fort Jackson, SC for two months. Once I complete my training (I am active duty Navy) I will be moving immediately to Chesapeake or Virginia Beach, VA. If at ANY time anyone needs me to transport gliders (or pretty much any other critter actually), their supplies, and/or their cages, I will be more than happy to. I will be towing my 2 horse trailer (without my horse in it so there is PLENTY of room to lay down cages with no suggies inside) and I have a full sized Toyota Tundra. My suggies and thier belongings are going with me. I have a travel cage and a spare huge cage in case someone has a mini colony to send along. While in Texas and Florida the cages will be moved off the trailer and the suggies will stay in them. While I am in South Carolina going to school I will have my suggies with me. IF YOUR SUGGIE NEEDS A RIDE I am more than happy to assist you. Once I am in Virigina I will be able to take on fosters and do short trips (few hours each way). I am a major animal lover and I treat everyone else's family like mine. Thank you for your time and thank you for not lecturing me about my suggies in CA - the problem is being taken care of :) EMAIL: luvmysuggies6@gmail.com Resa PrimoWorks Joey USA 47 Posts I can handle southern Louisiana, state line to state line (TX/MS) and as far north as Alexandria, LA. Occasionally we travel to one coast/border or the other (month-long camping trips) and can help with other states. All our pets ALWAYS travel with us (whether camping in National Parks or staying at pet-friendly motels) so we are experienced and the suggies will lack nothing during our leg of travel. As far as fostering, I cannot yet do any fostering, since my large suggie mansion is not finished yet. Once ready, I'll update, but, even with the extra space, I will not foster for more than a month. This little critters have a habit of stealing my heart and I'll end up with too many to be able to give them personal attention. Also, they might get lonely, since I cannot add them to my colony until vet-checked and quarantined. Irene Morgan12422 Starting Member 0 Posts I am North of Chicago and could do an hour or 2 radius almost any day! Morgan12422 Starting Member 0 Posts Also, I may need some help getting a glider from Middle of Michigan, to a little closer to Chicago. Any ideas? ResaJane Face Hugger 411 Posts Okay, I'll be headed cross country on August 1st. I'll be talking the I10 route thru Yuma and Tucson, AZ, Las Cruces, NM, El Paso, Tx and on into Autin where I will stay a few days. I will then head North to Dallas and on to VA. I'm not sure of that route since I have never done it before but I'll be following the directions that Google gives me. Once in Va I have to drop household goods and my horse trailer off. Then I go down to Columbia, SC, Fort Myers, FL and back up to Jacksonville, NC. Let me know if I am needed for a railroad.... Resa
