Your venture with the cat is a commercial I was thinking the same thing. I had started putting together a flyer with a picture of her and then stapling it to the telephone poles around the neighborhood in the hopes someone would stop and read it. But kids with a cell phone or Blackberry got the word around much faster. All it takes is one kid to get it to go viral. There was a similar but much sadder event recently. An 18 YO had an asthma attack at 4 a.m. and was rushed to the hospital in critical condition. The word spread by text messages and about a hundred kids showed up at the hospital. The hospital was overwhelmed. Unfortunately, he also suffered cardiac arrest and didn't make it.
