Animalkind Inc. saved 25 cats last sunday from being euthanized.
The story: A mentally challenged woman in Schoharie County could not
control
the intake of cats and over a 100 cats bred in her house. The cats have
been
indoor cats. When the woman was hospitalized, the health department
required
the removal of all cats. An organization from the Schoharie area (
spay/neuter clinic) is getting paid to euthanize all cats on Monday,
August
19th.
Animalkind was allowed to take 37 kittens within the last month's.
Yesterday
25 more adult cats have been taken, with more cats left behind-today all

those cats will be killed.
All the kittens tested negative for Fel.Leuk/FIV. All kittens/cats are
healthy and most are friendly ( and beautiful/ long haired)
Now we would need some help. We are aware of the situation :
rescue groups and shelters-all are overwhelmend full, there are more
cats
than homes etc...

Still, we need to give it a try:
Anyone outhere who can take kitten(s)/Cat(s) or adopt?

I hope they are able to find homes for them in time, but unfortunately, they most likely will pay the ultimate price for unresponsible people
I don't understand why people who are uncapable of keeping animals still own them. I have nothing against people who are mentally challenged, etc. but if you are unable to care for yourself, you sure shouldn't be keeping an animal(s).

If you know someone in NY, perhaps you could e-mail this page to them. This is tragic. I wonder if alleycat allies have been contacted.

If I lived closer to NY, I'd be over there in a heartbeat. Unfortunetly, I'm stuck here in Ontario and mum doesn't want another cat.
I hope all those furbabes find homes
. I'm praying for them.
