As we reflect on the successful rescues of the past year, we know that there is only a short period of time to get ready for the kitten season which will soon be upon us. With daylight increasing and the weather getting warmer, newborn kittens will soon appear. Many will be dropped off at local animal shelters and will need to be rescued before their time is up. If they are not tagged by a rescue organization, or adopted out by the shelter, they will be euthanized.
This was the situation in which we found Emma and Carla. Both cats were pregnant and had been dropped off at the local animal shelter where Carla gave birth to 6 kittens and Emma, while we aren’t sure how many she actually gave birth to, we do know she nurtured 9 kittens as her own. It is, we are sure, the only reason the orphans survived as the need for mother's milk is especially critical in the first 48 hours of life.
New Beginnings Cat Rescue tagged the momma cats and all the kittens. Though the mother cats are still waiting for a loving family, all 15 kittens have been adopted. These kittens survived because you made it financially possible for the volunteers of New Beginnings Cat Rescue to do what they love to do;
Rescue Cats. Thank you!!
