Administrator/Warden’s report:
Mrs. Parker discussed a bill that was paid for a cat that had
been adopted from Animal Control. Before release, the cat had
been spayed by Dr. Gillen, but the new owner expressed concerns
that the cat was still exhibiting symptoms of not being altered.
Upon examination by an independent vet, it was discovered that
the first surgery was incomplete since the cat was pregnant at
the time. It was necessary for the cat to undergo a second
surgery and Mrs. Parker agreed to cover that cost. She also
reported the new employee, Jane Whiteman is doing a great job.
Nothing further to report.
Budget:
No concerns.
A motion was made by Mr. Hepler, seconded by Mr. Ruben, to pay the
bills as presented for payment. Motion passed.
A motion was made by Mr. Ruben, seconded by Mr. Hepler, to adjourn
the meeting. Motion passed. Meeting adjourned at 7:03 pm.
