My friend told me of an acquaintance of hers that has two cats that gave birth at the same time. She thinks that there are 6 kittens and they're now 4 weeks old. She's been trying to find homes for them since they were born w/no luck. My friend said "I'd hate to think what she'll do to those kittens if she can't place them." I asked "What do you mean? What would she do?" She paused and said "She'd probably drown them." I completely lost it, jumped up out of my chair and started yelling that I'd pound her friend into the ground like a f***ing fence post if she harms those kittens! I realized that I shocked my friend and that I wasn't doing the kittens any good by reacting that way, so I calmed down and got down to business. I called Ol' Faithful (Suzy), who's still actively involved in cat rescue and fostering. Her sweet husband answered the phone and said "Oh yes, we're still fostering. We just found homes for a litter of 6. Call Suzy on her cell." Bless his heart! So I just got off the phone w/Suzy and between the two of us, we're going to get those kittens somehow. I can't foster but I told her that I'd help w/vet expenses, medicines, food, etc. I'm going to see if we can get the two mothers as well because this woman doesn't deserve to have cats. And if she does do anything to those cats, I'll get the authorities after her and I WILL follow up on it. She's been going into a local bar w/the kittens to see if anyone will take them. Thank goodness, so far no one has. (I'm not being judgmental here; I'm not anti-alcohol. But this particular bar has a bad reputation and the people that might consider taking the kittens probably wouldn't be fit families either.)
Please keep your fingers and paws crossed that we can get these kittens and the moms, too, and FAST!
