Greenville Families at Risk

* tap tap tap tap tap - where IS that on switch CLICK ahh there is it..... *

A Facebook colleague is appealing on behalf of kitty families.  The lady's name is Melissa  'Missy Kitten' Harrington who tirelessly to help save cats and kittens.  This link is to the kitten rescue FB page - go here to see the kittens and hopefully offer some help.  If you can't, please share this post....

I am awaiting info and will update my post .  In the meantime they need donations to the chip in (SEE RIGHT).  If you can donate a bit, Melissa and I would both be very grateful.

Melissa speaks :-
Currently 4 have their pull fee sponsored, so there are 3 families left that need their pulling fees sponsored. We also need to raise vetting and transport funds (depending on location of foster)... And fosters are needed.

Moosie - an Update - Still No Home

* tap tap tap - where's that on button Mum CLICK it's Ok I found it *

OK everyone, we need to get this out into the wide world of the web NOW.  Moosie still has no home to go to.  There is funding for transport, she is a gentle and genuine girl - what's not to LOVE?  Her loving little heart must be breaking, I know mine aches for her even though I am half way around the world in New Zealand.

I am posting the report from Moosie's carer below, please PLEASE can you read this and tweet, Facebook and MySpace, Stumble and Buzz and share this far and wide, so we can find her a home.  [Link to earlier Moosie post here.]

We are profoundly grateful to her foster carer who has taken her in temporarily, without this kind lady Moosie would be dead already.   OK  * manipulates mouse to cut and paste *  Now I will hand over to Moosie's foster Mum who reports :-

Thank you both for  your continued efforts to find the home where Moosie can be an adored companion.

She continues to do well in our spare bedroom/bathroom.  She has been playing with assorted toys, and is fond of catnip.  I think she's slightly bored at this point.  The bedroom has only two small windows near the ceiling (it's in our finished basement) so it's difficult to get up to them to have a look outside.  She has a lively intellect that we're trying to find ways to stimulate.


 She greets us at the door when we come down to feed her, clean her box or give her attention.  She looks happy and healthy.   I dearly wish we could keep her, but with some of the dominant personalities our cat family already has, I fear she'd regress into being a scared, bullied girl.  She deserves better than that.

I haven't heard from anyone new inquiring about her.  I am still unable to get mail back to Julie in Maine. 


Caboodle Ranch did write back to see what the status was, and I let them know we're hoping to find her a home where she won't be surrounded by other cats.  It is good to know that's a backup just in case we don't come up with anyone who is interested in adopting her.  I can see her continue to thrive with one-on-one love and attention.

We still have our chins up, and hope for the best!


Moosie's transport costs will be met for a legitimate and approved adopter. CURRENT LOCATION :- Maryland, close to Baltimore and Washington DC.  Transport probably available via Continental AIr.

Cat Blogosphere has joined the appeal circle with a notice on it's page.  PAW-some.  Hang in there Little Mew!

I have read on the blogs of Brewskie (JustMeowin') and Rumblepurr (both fun blogs), that a little cat by the name of Little Meow is in urgent need of a home.

She used to live outside, with her dad but heck, let Daily Cute tell you the story and, please, if you can pass it on DO SO. This kitten cat needs the kind of lucky break I had getting a forever home.

Pass on the Daily Cute post as often as you can,  reTweet it, Facebook it, just let's get this out there NOW.

Helping KittyKitty

* Pat pat - Is this mike working Mum *

I am reposting this to encourage you to think hard about donating to Kitty Kitty's chip in on the right.

OK.  Petie the Cat whose blog I follow (here) has brought to our attention that a young lady called KittyKitty was rescued by Twitter pal @WildAboutBirds who found her seriously injured.  The vet bills are scary - Mum looked very upset as she read Petie's blog post.

Petie is himself a cat facing illness, and for him to report on the sufferings of others made me realise that he is a truly special cat.

Oh and I put the chip in on my blog for as long as it's needed.

Dash.
