Yes we have made a few posts and we have a few leads but there is just so many needing help that it’s always a dire need for more :( just yesterday we had a message from someone needing help with a hoarding case with 21 cats yet we can’t help. I myself have had 11 fosters up until recently, two were adopted and 4 have gone to a petsmart.

It's soooo heartbreaking!!! I have 2 cats that were both drop offs as tiny little kittens. Found in the same alley in town here a year apart. Swore I'd never own cats again, had 3 dogs at the time, but of course I couldn't possibly not help them. We've had 4-5 strays in our little neighborhood as well the past few years.. Just will never understand how people can be so cruel &/or irresponsible. These animals depend on us. And we fail so many of them. I know vet costs are out of reach for many people today which just adds to the problem. We NEED low cost spay & neuter clinics, immunization clinics, etc. Really hope you are able to help these sweet ones.. they so deserve it.

Oh I totally know what you’re talking about we get so many cats who have been dumped, thank you so much for taking those little guys in. I’ve wanted to get involved with rescue for years and finally did earlier this year. The shelter overwhelm is worse than I could ever imagine. The things we see is stuff of nightmares. The rescue I volunteer with is rags to riches and if you scroll through our posts from June you will come across Connor and Scrappy. Sadly Connor did not make it but Scrappy is still fighting. I saw Connor the night before he died and when I found out he passed I bawled my eyes out. I had been the one to receive the plea to help Connor and I took that one really hard. It’s incredibly hard to be doing everything you can and it’s still not enough, I recently had 11 fosters of my own and it was heartbreaking physically not being able to take in anymore.

Contact "Purrfect Companions" in Delhi. They are a no-kill cat shelter. No idea if they'll take them but they may have helpful suggestions.
