Yes we work with CARE all the time, the vets said she would not do well on a 10+ hour drive. So I talked to Linda from CARE and she said see if we can find a pilot to help out. She is currently in AR and I am getting her to a foster home in KC,MO hopefully this will help in finding someone...I do have a hospice foster for her in Denver. Thanks! Nicole

I can probably get someone to Drive little Miss Maggie to Salina, KS or Hays, KS to meet a pilot :)

Depending on when she needs to go, I might be able to get her to Hays by air, if someone could pick her up there and fly the rest of the trip. Would need to leave from New Century (KIXD) in Olathe, KS and will depend on the weather and aircraft availability.

I think we are 2-4 weeks out the vet in KC has decided they need to remove her mammory tumors that are cancer. So that will be done tomorrow (11/1) I will repost a date when I know when she can move. Thank you for the reply to my post!

That's fine. If she still needs to go to Denver, I may be able to get her to either Salina or Hays, Ks if another pilot can take her the rest of the way.

Weather permitting and depending on your schedule, I should be able to fly her to either Salina or Hays, Ks for you if she is leaving from the Kansas City area. I fly out of Johnson County Exec (KOJC) so if you can get her there, I'm pretty sure I can get her roughly half-way if you have a pilot that can finish the route to Denver.
