Here's some advice for your friend Ashley regarding finding homes for the kittens.
If she puts an ad in the paper, ALWAYS ask for an adoption fee. Why? It will discourage laboratories from trying to get free cats for research purposes. Laboratories won't pay for cats or kittens. They look for "Free to good home" ads. It will also discourage people from "whim" adopting. Also have them give you 3 references, including a veterinary phone number and name. This way she can check to see how they care for their other pets (if they have any). I also used to charge a little more and then promise them money back if they produce a spay/neuter certificate showing they had the cat fixed.
There are alot of whackjobs out there. If she wants to make sure they go to good homes, it's better to take the time to screen prospective owners.
Good luck and keep us posted.
thanx :) but i have a question...ppl always warn abot laboratories, but what if there arent any labs around here? there arent any in kelowna, except the one at the college, but they dont use kittens :confused:
