Darrin Fuhs Abandoned a cat Peterborough, NH  Hillsborough County December 6, 2003

        (Photo courtesy of Through Their Eyes)   Fuhs' has abandoned an orange and white long hair cat named Buddy, who is approximately 10 years old with Through Their Eyes. Fuhs' brought Buddy to Through Their Eyes for fostering in December 2003 with the understanding that he would pay for the vaccinations, cite test and that Buddy would be returned to him as soon as he was able to relocate his family in about 3 months. Through Their Eyes did not charge Fuh's anything for the daily care and feeding of Buddy. Well 6 months later and despite numerous phone calls and snail mail to his current address, Fuh's has not contacted the organization. We have an outstanding invoice for Buddy's vaccinations and cite test to the tune of $76.90 which Through Their Eyes will be going to civil court over if Fuh's does not reimburse us by 5/19/04. On 5/6/04 Buddy was adopted by a very loving older couple who just adore him.

Fuh's is currently living with his father in W. Yarmouth, MA 02673, his previous address was 23 Pheasant Rd., Peterborough, NH 03458. Through Their Eyes believes that at some point in the near future Fuhs will probably try to adopt another shelter animal, as he did Buddy.
