15. I think you and yr ex did do the best thing for Yoshi...

You've both gone above and beyond with the help you've given, imo. I totally get that TTW would be devastated, and I can't even begin to imagine how she feels, but while I'm concerned about her emotional state, I was also concerned about both Yoshi and yr ex, especially after seeing how big and wolflike Yoshi is and that he was suffering from anxiety.

Hopefully Yoshi will end up pretty quickly in a foster home that's equipped to deal with him. And I hope however long it takes, that TTW does get back on her feet and realise that she does need help with managing what resources she has. I got the impression from her posts about the whole thing that it was all so overwhelming to her that she did a mixture of inertia and bad choices. And i was wondering how the eviction would affect her getting a decent rental property, because over here if someone's been evicted AND has a pet, their options for renting become extremely limited.

It's not hard to figure out how attached she is to Yoshi. I can't imagine how I would have felt in that situation facing the prospect of losing a pet that must be an anchor for her, but I hope in the next few weeks unless her situation improves drastically she considers what's best for Yoshi and lets him go to a new home.

Thanks again for everything you've done, misanthrope. You restored my faith in DU
