Probably a lot of you are already familiar with this, but I thought I'd post here in case any of you aren't...
"Kitten Lady" is a young lady who basically devotes her life to saving kittens in need (special needs, abandoned etc). She's become kind of a celebrity advocate, she was on one of the "My Cat From Hell" episodes (which is one of my all-time favorite episodes):

One of her current ones, "Hank" is a particularly neat story. She (yea, *she*) was brought into a pet store at like 5 days old, and they called in Kitten Lady who took over and is busy raising Hank (along with another full litter of kittens as well as her own cats). She documents the process and progress of her kitten rescues, and in doing so not only teaches a lot of people about this stuff, but also by the time the kittens are ready for a forever home they are all pretty much celebrity cats, with people lining up to adopt them.

Kinda understandable given her profession, but still she is just needlessly alienating a lot of would-be allies to her cause. Anyway... for those of you not familiar, enjoy. Then come back and discuss
