Helen, go to www.petpac.net. YOu will find that Bill Hemby of PetPac is legitimate and is one of the biggest forces we have right now against the horrible California bill. He probably got your name from an AKC list of some sort. PetPac and NAIA are the ones I'm donating to right now, even instead of my own organization. Their directors are listed on their website. Bill Hemby has been a legislation director of C.O.P.S. for about 20 years. (California Organization of Police and Sheriffs <http://www.cops.cc/>). CFA (Cat Fanciers Association) just donated a LARGE sum of money to PetPac to start some television spots against AB1634, and the campaign that PetPac is running is with the cooperation of CFA, NAIA, our organization (CFODC) and others. This campaign costs money, big money, and they are reaching. I actually would hope that our PC would make a sizable donation to PetPac. I think that PetPac's ultimate goal is to go nationwide, but they must win and win big in AB1634, in order to gain the reputation that would be needed to do that.
