From my first update:

On Thursday, my DH took the day off from work, so we weren't home much of
the day (running errands & such), therefore I didn't get a chance to call
the shelter.  We did stop by Pet Smart, but no Sniffles :(.

Yesterday, I got no answer when I called them :(

I have still not received any reply from my email (and I have emailed them
twice) - Grrrrrrrrrrr.

On another note, my DH may have to start working 16+ hour days, the factory
where he works (Visteon, in Bedford, IN) is having some problems:  The local
UAW contract is up for renewal, expires the 15th of this month - they've
been arguing about it for the past 3 months.  My hubby is NOT part of that
union (he's a salaried employee - part of the head of the machine
maintenance dept), and there's been talk of a strike - that and that the
Corporation head (in Dearborn, MI) announced that if some pay/benefit cuts
were not taken by the UAW union( some of the LOWEST paid workers still make
over $15/hour), they would start moving production elsewhere (there's
speculation that 'elsewhere' is Mexico, even though Corp says Georgia or
Mississippi), and cut employment by 1/2 (the factory employs roughly 1,200
hourly & salaried - and Bedford is a fairly SMALL town), and if there IS a
strike, all the salaried will pitch in to keep the factory running - that is
unless Corp doesn't just say "you had your chance to save your jobs - see ya
later" and just close the plant entirely!  There are some UAW workers that
are screaming that 'corporate greed is taking our jobs', but it's not just
that - it's their own greed for wanting $20/hour just to stand there and
watch a machine make auto parts* or to just push a button every 3 minutes...
sigh!

Enough rambling about my woes.... I'll keep phoning & looking for Sniffles

*the parts that Visteon makes at this particular parts are for the
windshield washer system (fluid reservoir, fluid pump, etc.) and fuel gages
(the part that goes into the gas tank that the indicator in your dashboard
is attached to) and fuel senders (not the actual fuel pump at the engine,
but another one in the gas tank that keeps the pressure even in the fuel
line going to the pump at the engine - without which your engine would
probably sputter every time you went up hill)
