Friend is going to be adopting a kitten from the Huntingdon Humane Society tomorrow

[Anikaca77]

Well I called them because I was worried since it said urgent but she said it just means that they have been their the longest and don't plain on euthizing them. They are just trying to get homes quicker for them.

She'll have to see how she feels...but if she could adopt two, and think of someone who might take the third...that Urgent sign has me worried!

Well Good news Robyn was adopted out already so she is down to deciding between 2 right now.

I don't think she wants to take in more than 1 one especially since they have a 2-yr old but we'll see what happens.

One by One pulls MANY cats from this Huntington shelter. I have fosterd several of them. So far they haveall be wonderful cats.


they do place the URGENT on cats when their time is growing near....but I heard stories that they do not admit to the public that they euthanise. My own county shelter is the same way. They won;t admit to the public the TRUTH!! And I don't understand why.

But, I am hoping that your friends will find a very special new baby at the shelter.

I have been out to that shelter before to pick up a few cats for One by One, and I was really pleasantly surprised by how nice it was (compared to some that I've seen). It's not the easiest to get to (small side road not well marked, can't imagine getting to it in the winter), but the people there were super nice.

The one volunteer we work with there is named Sandy... see if she is there at all. She's super nice, and really loves the kitties.

I still have Calloway from that shelter, and Precious too. My mom adopted Shyla from them and her friends adopted Honey. They are just the sweetest kitties in the world. Monty, one of my other fosters, was from there as well. He was an awesome kitty.

We too are pulling for the adoption of both Kittens as Kittens do a lot better with someone thier own age and size to wrestle and play with.
And those two would make a great Kitten Dynamic Duo.

Thanks for helping your friend find another kitty to love. They're all adorable and I hope that everything goes well. I'm glad to hear that Robyn was already adopted.

I don't understand why they wouldn't tell the public. Everyone knows that the SPCA does even though now they are trying harder not to euthanise them.

When I called Hungtindon several time and mentioned how I wanted to save these kittens from being PTS they never said anything until I called back one afternoon (not sure who I spoke with) and they said they don't do that. Which I thought was kinda odd that one person out of how many I spoke with told me that they don't do that. She said they just put urgent there to get the oldest kitten who have been their the longest homes. I'm just hoping that those 2 will be adopted by the time my friend gets there. But we'll see.

Did anyone get adopted???

Yes they adopted a young boy kittie and they might name him Merlin. I got to see him on Saturday and he's a real cutie pie. I'll post pics soon.
