Look what I found on my back porch today!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

I called Pittsburg, Ks airport. It's only 30 min from me but they only take private planes. He said the only airline going into Joplin goes to Kansas City first, then into Joplin. He couldn't remember the name.

Maybe American Airlines like Slick said? I'll check some more.

I just went to the Joplin Reginal Airport website : www.jlnairport.com
They show United but there is no list. I tried calling the airport but couldn't get them to pick up. The phone # is 417/623/0262

I'll try again later.

I feel so helpless....please let me know if I can contribute $$ at least!

Sorry I haven't posted sooner, but I'm now up to date. (had a little
health scare, but am now ok) Am completely ok with sending $$ to help
with the vet checkup and/or transportation of the babies. lvpets2002
, please pm me an address where I can send the $$.

Keeping them in the shed for naps & overnight stays sounds like a very
good idea. They are getting to where they have no fear at all, and
that's a bad idea for babies who have access to the wide open spaces.

It might be best to check with the Enterprise co near you and see if they can contact whatever airline you would use and reserve a car. They can tell you if you can bring it to them from KC or not.

I now have 5 grumpy babies!!! I finally wrangled them all and got them in the shed. The shy black one was the last hold out. I had to bribe him with a can of tuna to come close enough so I could get him. I may not be able to get him again.

I sat in there with them for a while. It wasn't as dark as I was afraid it would be. It looked like twilight. Still after they ate, they went and piled in their new bed and ignored me. No happy jumping on my pant legs. No happy gosh we're glad to see you looks. I am such a mean kitty care keeper.

I hope this doesn't encourage them to run off tomorrow when they are finally loose. The only alternative is to stuff them under the porch and put a couple of bricks over their hole until I can be with them.

Yea, Liz speaking of no fear; my yard got mowed this afternoon. I was expecting them to all be under the house. What did I see right after my yard guy left? All 5 of them sitting on that ledge by the porch hole entrance.

I'll bet the tuna (or whatever) still smells as good to them tomorrow.
At least you will be able to get a decent nights sleep if you know that they
are safely tucked away.

[Scooter's Mom]

Won't tell hubby, but I can put in $20.00. I wish it would be more... can y'all PM me and tell me where to send it?

[krazyaboutkatz]

I sure hope that this new plan will work out and that MOFF can keep the babies safe in the meantime. I'll also make a donation to Helene and she can use it towards the kittens or travel expenses. I'm sure that you'll be able to return the rental car to whatever company you end up renting from in Texas without any problems but I'd call to find out more details just in case.

So Helene, when do you think you'll be planning your trip to Kansas?

[freckledimple]

Those babies are soooo darlin' I wish we could help monitarily We're moving, saving up for kitty spays, and tests for Phoebe. We will send prayers for all of you angels helping out those sweet little furry angels

Well, we do need to get them on the road as soon as possible but there is a holiday weekend next week. That may slow things down some.

They did fine in the shed last night but the temps are going to be in the 90s here today. That's at least 180 in there this afternoon with the sun beating down on it.

Kits can't stay in there in the afternoons for sure. Can't let them free again, I'd never catch them. So, I cleaned the bathroom. They will just have to spend afternoons in there. It's not big but they can at least be in out of the heat. Hopefull, I can lock my big kids out of the kitchen so they can't even play pawsies under the bathroom door with the kits. If not, well, the big kids have all had their shots.

I'll try and get baby pics this afternoon.
