oh no! There's *got* to be somewhere you can take her or someone to give her to. (I can't take a dog, otherwise I'd offer.) I know the Howard County Animal Shelter takes owner drop-offs. Try calling around in the phone book to different shelters & whatnot.

If you're not able to move out, maybe you could try talking to your mother again later once she's cooled off, explain how much CJ means to you? Maybe she after she's had time to get over the incident, she'll let you keep her?
