Kittens - maybe!


Well my auntie has just been on the phone, someone she knows has 4 kittens that she can't find homes for and has said they will be drowned in 2 days if they can't find homes for them . Apparently they drowned the last litter of kittens they had, why they don't get there cat spayed I don't know.

So I'm sure I know what everyone of you would do, the same as me, I've offered to take all four and find homes for them, I will be phoning the local cat rescue the minute they open tomorrow and getting their help, can't just leave them to drown.
So now I'm just waiting for my aunt to phone these people and find out whats going on, but I said I will be in the area tomorrow so can pick them up then.
I have no idea how old they are or anything, I hope the cat rescue can just take them off me straight away but I am prepared to foster them short term.

Any of you people who already foster cats got any idea of how long it might take to rehome 4 kittens? When I agreed to take them it was a life/ death situation for the kittens, now I'm thinking I might end up stuck with 4 Kittens and I already have 4 cats!!

There is a CPL but its quite a way away from here, there is an independent rescue lady nearby and I'm sure she will be helpful as my vet recommended her, but they aren't open on Tuesdays.

What a terrible attitude. I hope they get the mother spayed now, or this will happen at lest once a year for the next 10.
Good vibes to you - I hope they all find nice homes

I have posted some links that mioght help you out a bit. Well done for offering to take the kitten and saving them from drowning. I think the lady who drowned the last lot should be ashamed of herself. But some peopl never learn I hope that the mother is spayed this time to stop anymore litter.

Thanks for the links Sally, very helpful. Hopefully we can get these kittens homes very quickly, I don't want to risk falling for one (or more) of them!
