NEED CHIN RESCUE RR HELP: Anyone From IL going to WI SHOW??

[ChillaAddict]

Hello Everyone!

I know its urgent and last-minute, but I need some help. I am adopting 3 of jamielynn0722's chins from her rescue, Chinchilla Villa Rescue. She is located in Illinois and I am in Minnesota. From what I hear, I'm the only one who didn't back out when there were potentially 11 chins being adopted at the same time!!

Originally, she had planned to go to the WI show, hand them off to Riven, whom then would bring them to TAF, who is going to the IA show, and so am I.

I am still planning on going to the IA show, and I know either way Riv and TAF are going to their respective shows. Unfortuneatly, Jamie has had a very serious, unexpected family emergency and won't be able to attend the WI show.

Which brings me to the point of this thread. I am wondering if ANYONE by chance is going to the WI show that lives in IL. All you would have to do is pick up these lovely boys and bring them to the WI to give to Riv, then rest is taken care of.

Thank you for reading this post I hope someone can help!

It's a true story, just get them to me at the show! I'll even offer some toys or gas money if anyone can help.

Jamie had posted a thread in the Chit Chat section, for those who don't know her daughter is in critical condition in ICU. Please send your prayers, and if anyone can help get these guys there I can take over care of them immediately so you don't have to worry about them at the show.

Thanks to anyone who may be able to help get these rescues to a forever home.

Never mind I answered my own question..:( I didn't realize the show was this weekend...If ya'll can't possibly find anyone else, let me know.

Wouldn't it be easier just to get them to MN? I'm going through MN on my way back from the show and I'd be glad to meet along I-90 somewhere. Then they wouldn't have to be drug north, then south, then north again - plus new barns, car ride, etc.

I know there are some people coming up from IL, just not sure how they are coming. How far is Jamie from Chicago?

[Riven]

Oh Tami, you should come anyway!

I'm in Joliet/Plainfiel Illinois. It is about 30 miles south of chicago. I can help if you need it. Going to the WI show.

Lol. Do you know what going to a chinnie show would DO to me!? I've been away from my girls for almost a month now, I miss them so bad. I'll go and see all the babies and omgosh! I'd be in love! lol. It would be horrible! And yeah I agree, it might be easier to just get them to MN....
I didn't read Tunes whole thing lol. Shes going right there anyways and could get them there, but yeah. I'm more than willing to get them to MN if no one can get them to the show this weekend. I just can't go real far to go get them, thats the problem. Bah. At least not this weekend....Next weekend i could. ;)

I missed a step somewhere. Are you going to the IA show where Chilla is picking them up?

Nope, but I'm driving through MN on Sunday on my way back from the WI show. Seemed to make more sense to me to try and get them directly to MN instead of down up, down up. Now it's just a matter of getting them TO the WI (still) then I could take them straight to Becky instead of all the transports.

Oh for sure - if there's an easier way (instead of up-down-up-down) I'd be more than happy to do it! Plus its less stress for the boys :)

Ok, so I'm trying to get all of this straight:

Tunes is going to the WI show and could bring them practically straight to me, versus going to Riv, to Nebraska, to TAF in Nebraska, to IA show, to me. Which works awesome!

But how do the chins get from Jamie to the WI show? I don't know "exactly" where she lives, but I do know its in Pontiac, IL.

Oh YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME! :) I can't thank you enough for helping me and the homeless chinnies
