I would guess Tx is out of the question.. I wish we could get Pilots-N-Paws to help here.. I think they only fly out of & into certain states..

I know some people who organize transports of that sort. I don't know if Boston to Texas would be too far or not.

Let me check the Web Site of Pilots-N-Paws & see what their locations of flight into & out are..

Pat I have found a lady pilot that our company {in aviation} supports her airplane & she supports Pilots-N-Paws.. Now I need to know the location of the babies.. Are they in foster at Boston or where?? Then I will work with Patty of a go or not..

Hi Helene, they are being fostered somewhere in the Boston area through the Mass. Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (MSPCA). Website is http://www.mspca.org/ .

The CH kittens are mentioned as follows on this page of the website, about a home being found for a kitten born without back feet! (http://www.mspca.org/about-us/press-...or-kitten.html):

"The MSPCA is currently caring for several animals with impairments including a litter of kittens showing signs of Cerebellar Hypoplasia – a neurologic disorder caused by an infection of Panleukopenia in the pregnant mother (this causes the kittens to be born with underdeveloped cerebella, the part of the brain that controls balance and fine motor movement). The kittens will be further evaluated, diagnosed and have been placed in foster care to learn how to walk."

I can't find anything more on the site about the CH kittens. Probably your best bet to learn more would be to contact them directly and say you are interested in them:

Yes yesterday I joined the Group Pilots-N-Paws & I have them checking into MSPCA for the babies.. Pilots-N-Paws {Each Pilot} will only Fly 200-300-500 leggs.. Meaning miles of flight.. They will work like ground transports do.. I have found pilots to travel from Dallas to SC.. Now we are trying to get from there to Boston.. Then the pilots will fly in reverse back to certain airports.. Its like a relay team.. Then we have Foster homes Everywhere for if a plane lands & due to weather cant go the rest of the way.. Then they will look to find a foster for the night or so..
