    I need help! The foster cant take them!! SO upset!

    I just found out that the foster whom was going to take in my 3 boys, could not do it. I have to be in my new house/rental very soon...I have already asked for two extensions because the lady whom was going to take them, needed more time. They cant come with me, I am ALREADY over my agreed limit. What can I do now?

    I contacted Best friends and the other shelters people listed. Noone even wrote me back.... I still have 2 craigslist posting plus paper posting, with NO hits.

    They are going to end up at a high kill shelter, what do I do? I am so overwhelmed, and now this happens. I just wish I had known sooner, so I could make alternate plans. Now I have NO time. No where for them to go...

    I live in North Carolina. Does ANYONE know of anyone near me?

    EDITED TO ADD!!! I literally JUST found out seconds ago!

    Oh no! Katie I am so sorry. I wish there was something I could do.
    I don't even have any suggestions for you.
    ((HUGS!!))
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I have talked to The havens owner, and she said they just cant help.

    F.A.P.S I have left 3-4 messages, noone calls back. It also has a message saying that they are not taking any more animals in, to call animal control.

    I even tried some shelters outside of my area. I am so pissed/upset/frustrated/sad/hurt.....

    edited to add: Linden, the owner of the haven, is the one who was going to help with Chance (the kitty I found whom was dying, before we found out he was FeLv+)


    Thank you so much Michelle!

    Call Petsmart directly. Also call your vet and see if s/he can board them for a few days. Maybe a staff member can too. Vets and staff know OTHER vets and staff.

    Is there a college in Fayetteville? Getting word out to some of the students there might be an idea.

    I just emailed best friends one more time... It reads....


    My Name is Katie Layne. I live in Stedman North Carolina, outside of Fayetteville. I have 5 foster cats, that were being shot at (some were hit with pellet guns). I rescued them On Feb 06th 2007. I rent so I am not allowed to have more than 5 cats at the time. My landlord found out about them, and we are losing our rental. I have another one lined up, but the same rule still applies. I had people(rescues) to take them, and they backed out. I just found out that they have nowhere to go. They will have to be put to sleep, no rescues other than animal control will take them. Do you know of anyone, in my area ( I can drive a few hours and have a vehicle) that can take them? They are the sweetest cats, and just need a good home. I have pictures. I have also contacted rescues in my area, craigslist, and the local paper putting out ads, with no avail. Please Please help us! Thank you for reading this, Katie Layne and kitties

    Wanted to add- I MIGHT be able to sneak one of the girls in, but I still cant promise anything... I mean I am trying to sneak in a few as it is. I cant overdue it and get caught. If it was a small dog or something, I think that would be ok, but the number of cats are a little overwhelming to "non cat people" I am lucky I can bring as many as I can....


    Plus there is still one outside cat and just 2 days ago, another kitten (around 12-14 weeks) popped up I DID NOT bring her in. She has been eating, and there is a crate outside if she wants to use it. I feel bad, but at this point, my hands are tied. I CANT TAKE HER!


    Thank you so much Michelle!

    Oh Katie I wish I could help you, if only I lived closer to you or even in the same country I will pray you can find somebody who can take these guys in for you. Perhaps you could contact a local paper and have a feature to publicize that they need homes, sometimes my local paper do that, animals that are in need of homes, or maybe your local radio station?
    I will pray hard that this situation resolves itself soon for you, good luck and best wishes

    Katie,

    I wish there was something I could do. Is there any way with donations you could board them for a little while?
