I saw the article in the NY Times yesterday and had to let you know that I think what you're doing is great. The hamsters (and now gerbils, too) at New York Hamster House are lucky to have such a great home while they wait to find new homes. :)

You know, it took me a good five minutes to figure out how to save the page with the interview so that it wouldn't matter if the NYT took it down or archived it somewhere else or something. Turns out "print" buttons are incredibly useful...
