If you have a place to foster any of your kitties
temporarily, you might want to do that ASAP. When do you go to
court? Depends on how crappy the law feels that day ... I do know of a man
in the northeast a year or two ago, the law came in without warning and took
everyone of his personal and rescue kitties. By the time he had a lawyer
to try to get his kitties back, most had been euthed. Yes, horror story,
which is why it has stayed with me a long time. I was not there nor know
him personally. From what he said and having read his posts (different
list) he seemed like a genuine animal caring person. I realize this will
intensify your worry and sleeplessness, I am so sorry, but you do have to
do whatever you can to save your babies. The real wrath of it is people
like us who have over the city limit of animals but are devoted caretakers get
in trouble but people who have even only one pet, neglected and abused, do not
get caught and the animal suffers. It really makes me angry.
Prayers and hugs for you and your babies to be safe. Wish I could do
something more for you.

I don't think they will take them away right away.. but if I
can't find
a home for them.. which I won't --whenever I look a home for
them, I end
up with more cats --my question is then, what will they
do? Will they
take away from me and eventually kill
them?

I wouldn't think they could take
them away from you;
rather, that they give you ample time to place them
in
other homes. But if it was me, and I hope I don't
offend anyone
by saying this, if they told me I had to
get rid of some of my animals, I
would say ok, and
take them to my moms until they came back to
check,
and then like a teenager, I would bring them right
back
home. I've always been a little rebellious like
that.
