:love: Yes I am the one in TX that is trying to get these wittle ones from MOFF in KS.. Please we need a extra legg of transporting..
I got informed by Karen that Oklahoma is between Kansas and Texas. A cat-loving friend of mine is originally from Okie and lives about 20 minutes from me. He was in OK just a few weeks ago, grew up there and has lots of friends.
I messaged him on FB with the link to the message, briefly outlining the situation. Hopefully he will know someone, and we can get one link taken care of.
Prayers!
I just found out there is a chapter of the SPCA in a town 30 miles from us. I sent them an email and explained the situation and asked if they can help or know anyone who can or if they can give us any ideas. Cross fingers all! :love:
Fingers crossed, eyes too! :D

I just talked to the lady from the spca. They have a member who goes to OK regularly. She is going to contact him today.
Helene I sent you a PM. Please read. We need to know what citys and dates would be best for you.
Keep those fingers crossed everyone!!! :love::love::love:
WOOHOO! MOFF, at least Helen will post pics and updates so you can keep track of the wittle ones that go.
And you can laugh if Miss Carmela starts the flying zoomies on her own. Must be a Kansas Tortie thing! :D
YAY!! Paws crossed! :)
This is wonderful news!!!:D All fingers and paws are crossed here. Great work MOFF.:)
All paws crossed here.:):)
All fingers, toes, paw pads crossed here too!
Today I heard from a friend (and BIG-TIME cat rescuer and transport-arranger) who lives in Houston. She helped arranged transport for one of our Mosaic cats here in Ann Arbor all the way to upstate New York, for one success story.
In case the transport you're waiting to hear on doesn't work out for some reason.. She suggested www.uship.com.. They do a great job getting kitties from one place to another ..all over the country and even to other countries! Here is some of what she had to say:
".. When Jean brought down Kyle's sibs, we used www.uship.com - a man and his wife drove the kids down to jean's vet straight thru for a really good price. You just post on uship what you need and people bid on what they will do the job for. There are a bunch of transporters doing that - all have references and have been doing it for awhile. ... If they have not found anyone yet, you might suggest uship. For that short distance it probably would be less than $300.00.. "
Best wishes to all getting where they want to go!
Love from Pat and kitties :love::love::love::love::love::love:
P.S. My gang: Sydney is all the way from Cambridge MA.. [he moved with me when I moved to Providence RI and then 4 years later here to Ann Arbor MI] .. Bob is from Grand Rapids, MI.. just a couple of hours drive from here.. I went and got him after learning here on Pet Talk about him needing a new home. The others are all Ann Arbor kids that I wound up "fostering" (permanently!) for our shelter here, the Mosaic Feline Refuge.
Thanks for the link Phesina. I just checked it out. The kits would need to go the the vet for shots and stuff before they can be shipped that way. That would make the cost way beyond anything I could ever manage. The vet visit for one cat is around $50 here. :love:
:) WoW I never heard of this transport service.. See thats the same with Airlines.. I could fly in & fly them babies back out But they have to have all of their shots & ect for the Airlines to accept.. I am still wishing the couple that is coming to Dallas on June 5th would change their minds & bring the babies with them.. And or still hoping for the people to get ahold of the other people that can go to OK.. Still got all Paws Crossed..
:) Update == Thanks to Karen & Melissa == I am working with 3 diff contacts with Friends of Felines.. They think they can help us get the babies to the TX border & then I can pickup & then bring them on home.. All Paws Crossed..
i have been watching this thread and so glad to hear its still a work in progress.....hoping and praying.......
I sure hope that everything will work out. All fingers and paws are crossed here.:)
All fingers, toes, paw pads, etc. crossed here too!
:love: ** UPDATE** We have a lady that wants to pickup the babies from Connie in KS & take them to Deb in OK..

Carmen (the lady) & I are waiting on contact back from Connie & Debbie on when good time for pickup & dropoff could & needs to be.. Woo Hoo we just nearly have the trips done.. Connie I PM you too..:love:
