Melissa,

I know what you're going through and it IS sad. I wish I could help with the transport. There is an airline that specializes in transporting animals all over the country. It's only about $150. If you need more info, let me know.

I hope you can get to them in time. Kitten season is upon us and kittens are being dumped everywhere by stupid, irresponsible pet owners who don't get their animals spayed/neutered.
