    Whoa!!!! First off, how does your friend know that the kittens ribs were broken and secondly, did she say how this could have happened????

    Was this just one kitten that died, or was there more, as you stated "kittens."

    No clue. She said that the kittens ribs were indented. I do know that they have five dogs in the house, and the black lab killed TWO kittens prior to this incident.

    That is just so sad. If your friends lab killed 2 of the kittens, then why didn't they keep the other kittens safe in a closed room.????

    She did yesterday, but by then the damage was already done.

    She really needs to give the remaining kittens and their mother to the local shelter. Its very unfair that the kittens keep dying whether it be any fault of her own, or poor supervision.

    She won't take them anywhere, but to her new place out in the country. The cats will be outside.

    Then being outside is almost a worse fate than they being unsupervised with the lab. There are far worse predators outside than dogs. I certainly hope she is getting them spayed and neutered, especially the mother, so she does not have this problem again!

    She doesn't believe in spaying or neutering. I already told her to take them to a place here that does it at a reduced price, and she won't.

    Says that her kids who are 11 and 12, NEED to experience life and death
