No, just anyone who has more than four pets and is truthful about having more than four pets. If we don't pass our inspections, then they get to euthanize our pets. It's a law that passed after I moved here. Really, had I known that the people around here were that idiotic, I never in a million years would have moved here.

And teach them to get in touch with us here at MR so we know to send good vibes, etc.

Sadly, there is no one within several hours drive who would bother. I check up on my elderly neighbors as often as I can, but there isn't anyone to check up on me .... except for my neighbor Teresa who usually comes by on the weekends to run my doggies.
You know, that reminds me of the time I tried to flip my king sized mattress all by myself. Somehow it managed to fall on top of me, and I lay there for several hours in a mattress sandwich until I finally wiggled out.
The simple fact is, for those of us who choose to live alone and out in the country, the chances are pretty good that no one is going to find the body until someone from the utility department comes by to cut off the power and detects the smell of your rotting corpse (which in my case will be mostly eaten by cats after they run out of dry food).
Such is life.
