A New Friend and Ally Possibly

I had two feral cats scheduled for surgery,
so I called a cab to take me to The Humane Society.
When the driver saw the cats, she asked me,
"Are you TNR?" (Trap, Neuter & Release).
"Yes I am," was my reply to she.
then she went on to say the following to me,
"Whenever you have more cats scheduled for surgery,
when you call my dispatcher ask for me specifically.
From here on in your transport to and from The Humane Society
will be on me. Your transport costs will be absolutely free."
Taken aback all I could say was, "Thank you,.. really, sincerely."
"I'm TNR also, no worries," she then told me.
I just may have made a new ally and friend possibly.
