Hoarded Herd Arrives at Furkids
We had a serious 911 call on Sept. 11, 2014. While other rescues STEPPED ASIDE, Furkids STEPPED UP (yet again!), to save animals in IMMINENT DANGER...
A dozen cats and kittens came to us from a DANGEROUS HOARDING SITUATION. The tenant, and all the animals, had just been EVICTED.
When the call came in, the Furkids folks mobilized a makeshift EMERGENCY ROOM to triage and stabilize all the new intakes. This was the scene, as our staff and volunteers performed their evaluations. The cats were DEHYDRATED, INJURED, INFESTED with FLEAS, and DANGEROUSLY OVERHEATED because they were TRANSPORTED IN THE BACK OF A PICK-UP TRUCK! One is extremely PREGNANT. Several are KITTENS as young as five weeks old; two are MISSING EYES, or have serious eye infections.
Now that the cats have been evaluated more closely. This will be a huge undertaking. We *DESPERATELY* NEED DONATIONS for VETERINARY CARE, MEDICATION, and FOOD for the CATS THAT NO ONE ELSE WOULD HELP. Please, support these poor babies however you can by DONATING. Mention "Hoarded Herd" so your generosity benefits this sick, scared, and hungry crowd.
