THERE IS LITTLE TIME. THIS SHELTER EUTHANIZES MOMS & BABIES AT A FAST RATE. IF YOU ARE IN GEORGIA & HAVE A GA RESCUE LICENSE YOU CAN PULL THESE CATS INTO YOUR PROGRAM. IF YOU ARE NOT A GA SHELTER, but ARE WITH A LICENSED SHELTER IN THE USA, CONTACT ME ASAP AND I MAY BE ABLE TO GET SOMEONE TO PULL THE CATS ON YOUR BEHALF. WE CAN ALSO HELP YOU ARRANGE TRANSPORT. HURRY. TIME IS RUNNING OUT.

I just had to name this cat Cuddles and you can see why. I try not to name them, it makes it so much harder on everyone. The cats have such limited time here and we struggle to not make it personal......but this girl is just amazing and everyone has to know.
Cuddles ID# 6/7-2222 adores her kittens! The babies are gorgeous! She has 6 total.
The shelter is at capacity. These cats cannot be held. Their last day alive could be Monday June 13th unless we get a rescue commitment.
Please let me know if anyone is in a position to help.
Really really awesome family! Mom ID# 6/17-2237 is young and super sweet, her 4 kits are just gorgeous and over the hump so to speak, they are older toddlers and fat healthy butterballs.

We are very rescue friendly and are more than happy to work with any rescue group as long as the group has a valid Georgia Department of Agriculture license! Any rescue group, whether in or out of state, that takes pets from Georgia shelters, is required, by Georgia law, to have a rescue license issued by the Georgia Department of Agriculture's Animal Protection Division. Having tax exempt status is not the same as a license. For more information on obtaining a license, please call (404) 656-4914.

Gosh, they are all so beautiful. Paws crossed they get a rescue!
Thank you, Dorian
It's very unlikely any of them will survive. I hate this more than I can say, but if I don't publicize that they need help, they will have even less chance at making it out. I hope to God enough people see this who can get the word to just the right, few folks, who might be able to pull the cats from death row. It's very very sad. Spay/Neuter in the south just isn't happening in big enough numbers. It needs to change.

Just posted this on Facebook.Poor little mites. They deserve a chance.
Mommas and babies
Is there any good news yet about these kitties?
None
I have no news on these guys. Will try to find out.
Cuddles
Good news! Cuddles and her babies were reclaimed! The other two although, I'm not sure about.
Happy to hear about Cuddles and her babies!!
I hope I hear good news about those other mamas and their babies. i cannot get them out of my mind and heart.
This absolutely breaks my heart
That tortie mama and her vibrant little pipsqueak babies who are so full of life-- how can someone just kill them because they are unwanted? That beautiful innocent mama tabby and her little balls of fluff babies..........How does a mama cat feel when she knows that she and her babies are going to die and how do those babies feel when they know that they and their mama are going to die? It is insane. They come into the world with an Overabundance of Love-- Love-- which the world needs so much more of-- and all that happens to them is that they get killed.
I will never be able to understand this tragedy, and other than posting this and reposting it to my friends, I am, because of finances, powerless to help them, and I hate this fact.
Adoptions
Their viewing hours are not very long-- inconvenient for someone who wants to come by after work or on a Sunday. I think more animals would be adopted if this shelter had better hours .
