Goodness! How could someone -- well some one like us here on PT -- even imagine getting into such a mess?

I am glad you have animal services involved! What was done to those kittens is criminal and should be reported. I pray A. S. has some success in tracking down and prosecuting the culprits.

Prayers for you, that you find a way through this mess, that you keep your job, that the one kitten is trapped and safe.
