Well, I sure hope it works out for all the kitties involved here. Brook, if the shelter wants to ship extra kittens up here (leslie says you live somewhat near us) North East Animal Shelter in Salem moves kittens out very fast, providing they're younger than 3-4 months. I also know of a woman willing and wanting to take on a pregnant cat or two (I know they're probably some of the first to be snuffed ) and the shelter that takes most of my rescues has been having a great few weeks adopting out kittens as well. So if someone's willing to drive an extra half dozen or so up, they could probably be placed fast. And Laura, sorry to hear Kevlin's so sick. I'd love to know what's up your sleeve!
