Meghan about how we met, publicly hitting New York City, and our office received well, we received a phone call from the NYPD because it was a rescuer who was a bad actor had not taken care of the cats in her care.
5:04:05
And we called the ASPCA, and they wouldn't help.
5:04:08
And we called ACC, and they wouldn't help.
5:04:10
But the NYPD, and now I know the connection because your husband is a member of service, knew to reach out to you.
5:04:18
And you came and you trapped, and you brought them to the hospital, though that needed care.
5:04:23
And that's how our relationship began.
5:04:26
But that's the story of each and every person in this room.
