blue eyed white kitten needs help at animal control needs home asap

That's wonderful, Tracey, thank you. If you look at my post on the Bethel thread, you will see that Bethel's shelter in Tennessee is also going to contact the Illinois shelter and offer help. Considering their circumstances, the more help they get, the better. If you go to the shelter's page on cats needing homes, they have some wonderful kittens that probably only have a few more days to live. There are two georgous grey ones that would be snapped up in the right shelter.

Please keep us updated on what happens to this kitten, I would love to take her but I have my hands fulls with strays.

I'll say a little pray for her.

Oh My God, I knew there was a reason why i was sooo wooried about the little white girl! Thanks so much Lizzie for calling about them! You are the best! We need more people like you in this world.

The adoption fee is very cheap for the shelter. If someone who fosters could get them out before they are killed and find them home that would be wonderful!

This is a message I received from Lizzie. these kittens needs help NOW if not they will be killed jsut like caspurr and Purrl's sister was. Please someone go get these babies now.Situation dire in white kitten shelter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just got off the phone with the shelter in Illinois which has the white kitten. She has been to the vet and received worming and flea treatment. The vet said she didn't need antibiotics.

She will be euthanized if the shelter has to take in any more cats, and that is going to happen by sometime tomorrow. The fabulous grey kittens, who have been there the longest apparently, will be euthanized tomorrow also.

In order to rescue these kittens, someone has to physically collect them tomorrow. The shelter has no foster resources and no other place to put them. They are open 8am-3pm, Tuesday-Friday, and there is only one full-time person working there.

Tracy - can you do it? I know it's asking an awful lot of you, but it is their very last chance at life. We'll post a virtual collection can on PetTalk, I can send something. I'll pay the adoption fees for the white kitten and the two grey ones.

Hoping for the best. Thank you for any help.

I PM'd tracy....I have some funds I can donate if it will cover her gas costs...

I've already found someone at work who wants the white kitten, and I know the two grey ones would be adopted from me in a very short time. Problem is, we still might not get them out in time. Reachoutrescue is willing to go the shelter, but she's at work tomorrow and the shelter closes at 3pm. The shelter manager was adamant that she had nowhere to put kittens temporarily even when they were paid for and adopted. I really don't know what is going to happen. So many of us have our arms out for these kittens but the style of the shelter is against us - though I know the manager would be thrilled if she could spend one day not euthanizing kittens. If anyone looked on the shelter site to see the other cats available, the very young white female (an absolute beauty) who was there yesterday was euthanzed last night. I was thinking of taking her as well as the white kitten, but I was too late by half a day.

I can't understand why the shelter manager can't keep the kittens a day when you have them adopted and paid for and we have someone who can pick them up. Can't she combine the kittens into cages to leave room for the ones who come in? Seems to me she just isn't cooperating and it is easier just to kill them. Why does she even bother listing them on petfinder if she isn't willing to be flexible when people want them? This is making me very upset.
