WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU HAD A CHANCE TO SAVE A LIFE?

Crossposting from Barb at: [email protected]
These 2 kittens already have homes waiting for them. We need your help to get them from MO to PA

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.
Crossposting DOES SAVE LIVES!

I got a call late last night about two kittens that are going to be killed tomorrow if I don’t pull them. I will get them pulled! They already have an approved home! I told them if there are other baby kittens I will take them as well!

I need to get them from MO to PA. OH MY! I have never been involved in the Midwest, so I REALLY need help from YOU! PLEASE help us in this mission at a second chance for life. We cannot allow these poor little dears to face extinction when they have barely experienced the sunlight.

PLEASE DON’T LET THESE BABIES DIE.
These babies haven't even had an opportunity to begin their lives (at 6 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.

All kittens are UTD on shots.
1 medium cat carrier will be needed (21”x13”x10” will be fine).
The kittens will be coming from temporary foster care and going to rescue. The rescue group is Kitty ResQ http://www.petfinder.org/shelters/NY413.html

Please let me know what leg(s) you could drive.

It takes SO long to set up a transport! i would suggest just getting the kittens on to a transport that is already in place! Try to get private emails to expediate the process! Make sure you have all the proper vet paper work ready to go!

This is the SAME "rescue" organization that used COTD's cat pictures from Pet Talk!

I know some were concerned about whether Barb's rescue organization was on the up-and-up due to the photo situation. I want to assure you that it is. These kitties are on the last 2 legs of the trip to their forever home. The link below includes photos of 2 of them. If I didn't live so far away, I'd volunteer myself.

They are adorable, and I'm so glad the transport was able to be worked out. Congrats to them on a job well done! :)
