    Urgently need contact near Richland County, IL

    The Cats Forum is trying to rescue eight kittens who will be euthanized unless they are adopted in person tomorrow. The shelter is very small and cannot hold cats even when the paperwork is done and the adoption fees are paid unless the cat is picked up in person immediately. They can't even keep them for one day. They have no foster contacts. The local vets don't keep cats overnight.

    I am ready to pay the adoption fees and to fill out the adoption forms. Others are working on picking them up within two days. We need someone to pick them up from the Richland Country Animal Shelter in Olney, IL tomorrow and foster them for one day.

    Anyone?

    The cats HAVE homes already! They just need someone to get them OUT of the shelter TOMORROW til their new owners can get them!

    I wonder if Karen can contact people here who are in Illinois!

    One day is all anyone has to keep them for, just 24 hours until Tracy can take them.

    Doolittleky, Tracy and I have just been on a PM binge.

    D found a whole list of shelters in Illinois.

    I did up 31 email addys and composed an email to them. It's sent.

    Tracy phoned the few that had no email.

    And she is faxing the ones that were emailed and then some! I turned the email text into a faxable letter, and there goes TRACY!

    Please pray that ONE PERSON can foster these kittens for ONE NIGHT!

    hugs hugs hugs

    If I lived nearby, I would certainly do this.

    Best of luck, keep us updated. Certainly someone would be willing to do this...I'll keep the kittens in my thoughts.

    Where in Illinois is this? I am in Indiana, but live on the Northeast side, close to the Ohio, Indiana, Michigan border.

    Please give me some idea of where this is in Illinois.... as I could possibly have some contacts in other parts of Indiana that could help. Thanks. Donna

    Donna - thank you for offering to help. As you may have seen from the Kittens in Indianna are safe thread in Cats General, the shelter has agreed to hold them until Thursday when Tracy can pick them up. She may need help from other rescue organizations to house them until they can travel to myself and Melissa.
