You can't see me, but I'm sitting here shaking my head. I'm working very hard at not becoming cynical. Nina

Hmm...I've been curious about this rescue group. they claim to rescue from
up and down the eastern seaboard and are based here on Long Island but when
locals  have sent them emaiils regarding rescuing URGENT kittens needing
rescue LOCALLY, there has been no reply other than canned messages about it
costs $175 to rescue a kitten. their website says they can't save them all
however they do "save the best".  One director of a local rescue shelter was
informed by a friend that she could put in an order -for example-a long
haired white kitten and would be contacted when one was available. The
friend also informed her that this group has a long waiting list. When there
are so many homeless and desperate kittens already on Long Island needing
foster care, why do we need to ship more up here?  I myself contacted this
group about offering to foster (when I received a message about desperate 24
hours to live kittens so I would have fostered them at my parents' and
friends) and only received the canned message about paying up front $175 for
a kitten.
I'd appreciate any information you personally first hand know about this
group so I can make an informed decision about this group.
regards,
Barbara

If you can help, please reply to Barbra at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IF YOU CAN'T HELP TRANSPORT THEN PLEASE CROSSPOST THIS TO ANYONE YOU
KNOW THAT MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP - or any groups you might belong to.

We pulled 23 baby kittens this weekend that were slated to die. There
will be 5 kitties in TWO CARRIERS from TN to MD.  A small car is fine
for all legs up to MD. The rest of the kitties get on board in MD.
These are all babies and take up very little room. I was able to find
great homes for all of them. I have people coming from VT, NH and MA to
save these babies. I will rescue them, but I DESPERATELY need your help
to get them to safety. From MD to NY we will need big vehicles or maybe
2 regular size cars.

PLEASE help us in this mission at a second chance for life. These
babies haven't even had an opportunity to begin their lives (at 5-9
weeks old) and are about to be put to sleep.

They will NOT have a chance at life without your help.

YOU can change their fate!

We could really use YOUR help.

PLEASE DON'T THINK SOMEONE ELSE WILL DO IT.

Contact the coordinator Barbra directly off the list

As always, your help will be so greatly appreciated.

All kittens are UTD on shots, traveling with health records and have
tested negative for FeLV/FIV.

All carriers will be supplied.

The kittens will be coming from temporary foster care and going to
rescue and onto their approved forever homes. The rescue group is Kitty
ResQ http://www.petfinder.org/shelters/NY413.html

Please let me know what leg(s) you could drive.
