hi lynielim and june
thanks for both your help and advices. it's been helpful as well as soothing. i've been thinking a lot on this ever since sunday. the ideal of course would be not to subject samantha to any more undue stress from being moved around and adjusting to new surroundings. i mean she's already okay with me and her current room. actually she's not happy being kept in a cage at the present moment but i see no other way for it.
i'll keep your offer in mind. let's see whether anyone can help out.
thanks a lot
i feel terrible for letting samantha down as i can't even offer her the basics of shelter and care.
