Tracy,
Please do not blame yourself. You did what you had to do to protect yourself and your family, fur and otherwise. Ringworm is a very difficult condition to treat, especially when you have that many. I'm sure those babies will be fine. They'll get treated and find wonderful homes.
They were very lucky to have you. You saved their lives, girl! Be proud of that!!
((((HUGS))))

Please, don't beat yourself up over this. You did what was best for all involved... the kits and your own family. We all know that you have done a great job with these babies! Think about what would have happened had you not taken the initiative to go get them! I hate to think about that!
I know you will stay in touch with these babies and you have helped them on the jurney to their forever homes!
Thank you everybody for all of your kind words. I just feel so bad. I hope the kittens are okay. I worry so about them. I know it was for the best, but it is still hard to face the fact that I HAD to give them up. Any cat lover would understand. They are currently at the Animal Welfare League in Chicago Ridge, Illinois. They probably won't be online or available for adoption for a good month or so. You may contact them at 708-636-8586, a number I know too well! I used to volunteer there, so they were very understanding with me. Please if anybody inquires about them let me know what you find out. I called today, but I have to call back tomorrow and speak to Dawn or Mark. They are the people who did all the intake information. I just hope they keep me informed on the kittens. Thank you again everybody. Your understanding is much appreciated.
Tracy, you did the right thing. It got to a situation where it was just too much for one person to handle and it wasn't your fault. I take my hat off to you girl for taking on 12 kitties in the first place. If it wasn't for you, they would all be dead now. It's a sin that they had to get hit with ringworm. You're not Super Woman, you're only human and did what you felt was the best solution for these kitties and no one will find fault in your decision. I'm sure most of us would have done the same thing. You needed help, BIG TIME, and this was the best way to get it.
Prayers on the way for the kitties and ((((((HUGS)))))) for you.
