TRANSPORTERS DESPERATELY NEEDED!!!!!
If transport cannot be arranged for these 10 kittens, they will die. One was born with no eyes, but Barb has found a family with special-needs furchildren to take him. Please, please, please help! I, as you will read, am doing Leg 6 again, but there are legs yet to be filled: 4 legs, from Radford, VA to Hagerstown, MD (where I will pick up the kittens) and *one* leg from Harrisburg (where I hand them off) to Allentown, PA. PLEASE, people! Surely there are some of you along the way who can help to save these babies' lives. I can tell you from personal experience (and posted under my other "transport" post below) that this a most marvelous thing to do! The satisfaction is unbelievable - and all it costs is a little time & gas.
Barb's got the schedule so that none of the legs is very long - just an hour or so. How about it???
Here's the email I received:
IF YOU CAN'T HELP TRANSPORT THEN PLEASE CROSSPOST THIS TO ANYONE YOU KNOW THAT MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP - or any groups you might belong to.
We pulled 10 baby kittens this weekend that were slated to die. One baby one was born with no eyes and a special family that has all special needs animals has agreed to take hi, care for him and love him. If we can arrange this transport I will try to save others that are scheduled to be put to sleep this week too. Additionally, we will be rescuing 3 more from WV that will meet this transport in MD. They are all babies and take up very little room. I was able to find great homes for all of them. I will rescue them, but I need your help to get them to safety.
PLEASE help us in this mission at a second chance for life. These babies haven't even had an opportunity to begin their lives (at 6-8 weeks old) and are about to be put to sleep.
They will NOT have a chance at life without your help.
YOU can change their fate! We could really use YOUR help.
PLEASE DON'T THINK SOMEONE ELSE WILL DO IT.
Contact the coordinator Barbra directly off the list

As always, your help will be so greatly appreciated.
All kittens are UTD on shots, traveling with health records and have tested negative for FeLV/FIV. All carriers will be supplied.
The kittens will be coming from temporary foster care and going to rescue and onto their approved forever homes. The rescue group is Kitty ResQ www.petfinder.org/shelters/NY413.html (http://)
Please let me know what leg(s) you could drive.
