Kittens/Cats in need of Help in Bellefonte, PA

[Anikaca77]

I'm going to have to do that...

I just don't have the money and it's getting harder and harder to keep feeding these strays plus the cats in my house and the cats outside my place.

I'm just not sure how to start talking or anything...I'm going to have to start writing things down...and etc.

Thanks again...

Try the congressman's office, please! Plead for help! If you did that already, and it's a no-go, ask them what they would advise!

They'll have connections and information that would boggle most minds!

I just wanted to say a huge thanks to you Candance for helping me out. She faxed a letter for me to the Congressman.

I really appreciate it.

...AND the governor's regional office...since he just cracked down on puppy mills, I thought there would be a chance....

Yes I forgot that one again Thank you so much!

I posted an ad on statecollege.com asking for donations to help with the spaying and neutering costs.

Hopefully I'll get some responses.

You are incredible, never giving up when everyone else in your neighborhood ignores the whole situation. As well as the benefit to the cats that you are aiming for, you are benefiting in ways you might not be aware of at this time. Your battle for the cats' welfare, communicating with a wide variety of people to push your campaign, coping with distressing conditions and lack of response, and everything else you are dealing with has changed you and the experience has strengthened your mental abilities. I hated my time as a chilldren's nurse in the 60's, when most children died in a teaching hospital, but the experience certainly added strength to my character and the practical experience helps as I care for special needs cats.

Please keep posting. Since over a thousand people have viewed this thread, there are many who want to keep updated, and who wish they could help you more.

HI All,

I got a phone call last night in response to my ad and I had a couple meet me over at the house and the picked out the kitten they would like so I tried last night but we didn't have much time since it was getting dark to catch the kitten and I'm going to try again tonight so I hope I get the kitten.

I'm so glad I have found a home for one more.

I just needed to add one more thing that I think people who rescue cats should get gas for free, I just added up how much money I'll have left for the next two weeks and I really just don't think I'll have much to catch cats or feed them. Money sucks and it sucks not having any. I asked for donations on statecollege.com and centredailytimes.com but no one has replied saying they would give money towards this cause.

Reality is hitting very quickly.

I think the C-man's office will help, especially if your friend still works there.

I would hope that they would like some good publicity, and notify the media...my fondest dream...

It's not that the person himself can do anything, but people in the offices are so well-connected!

That cat owner needs some help, too...

HUGS

Well last night the 16 yr old girl said she would take a girl kitten if I was able to trap it. But chances of that are pretty slim but we'll see. I did get two more phone calls last night and well one person sounded pretty interested but she wants to see a picture so I sent her the only one I had and I'm just waiting for the response now...

I just hope that when I catch these kittens that these people don't back out and decide not to take them.

It's just going to be hard to catch the kittens especially when the older cats like to go into the trap.

The other bad thing is I'm so low on money I can't afford to go out there every day like I want to.

I will give them a call tomorrow and see what happens.

And did you? How did the call go?

You are getting broke and exhausted - CALL and tell them exactly what you are doing, how you are feeling, and that you need HELP!

Don't think about it - JUST DO IT! (thanks, Nike)

I stopped by his office today, they gave me a number to the local dog catcher to see if he might have more resources as for funds she said this time of year is not a good time for funds.



Well I'll try the dog catcher once I hear back from Best Friends org.
