*NOTE: In the episode, I say Timothy Logan, but his whole name is actually Richard Timothy Logan.
UPDATE: In May 2022, the 2 misdemeanor charges against Timothy were dropped. He has since closed down his clinic and moved to Ecuador. According to Mimi's parents' lawyer, he has lost his vet license. They are still suing him.

Thank you everyone for your patience! Part 3 is now here! There was a break in between because there were interesting developments taking place, so it was decided that the final episode would be postponed to see what would happen. And in the end of the ep, you'll find out. But that's just the dessert. Our main entree will be a dive into the potential reasons for why a proper investigation wasn't carried out.
Make sure you check the links below to see how you can help the Woodlands Cats. Currently, Martha is paying for the vet treatments on her own, so if you are able to, please make a donation on her PayPal.
