PLEASE EVEN IF YOU CAN JUST FOSTER ONE CAT or GIVE $25 to sponsor their pull – ANYTHING HELPS!!!!!!!!!!

1
A4175098 This funny is a 4 year old Dilute Calico gal!  She is loving, sweet and beautiful..a perfect combination. 
2
A4175191 What a precious boy…he is shy in the shelter cause he is so scared L but when you give him some attention he will come out of his hiding box and want to be petted…We think he will be sweet outside the shelter and once he puts on some weight, he should be one of those big boy cats that people like. He needs a loving, caring person to treat him like the perfect boy that he is.
3
A4175192 Gorgeous, golden tabby with deep green eyes and a big voice. There is something so fantastic about an opinionated tabby!  And this gal has some talking to do...about everything.   She is so very adorable and would love to have a sunny spot, a warm bed and a loving home all her own.
4
A4175217 Shy sweet girl, possibly a lynx point siamese.  The shelter is no place to live and she isn’t happy there.  Not feral or even semi-feral...just really scared.
THESE 7 RAIDCATS HAVE BEEN PULLED AND NEED FOSTERS ASAP!!
FULLY VETTED AND READY TO GO!!

ANIMAL HOARDING PROJECT - WEBSITE LAUNCHED

www.animalhoardingproject.com

As you know, Animal hoarding is a serious animal welfare problem that affects every community in the country… but hardly anyone is doing anything about it. It’s only when the hoarding degenerates into criminal animal abuse that authorities can get involved. Before then, it festers, with helpless pets locked away inside the homes of people who are often suffering from serious emotional problems.

Unfortunately, Animal Hoarding affects every different species of animals and the exotic pet community.

Most hoarders start out as dedicated pet owners or want to turn their love for animals into a legitimate business- through breeding, unfortunately they let their situation get out of hand. Studies have shown that without psychological help the recidivism rate for animal hoarders is near 100 percent. We can provide the psychological help, professional support and find new homes for the animals.

To a hoarding situation, we can bring a task force to help tackle the problem from all aspects. We approach every hoarding situation in an individualized manner- looking at the problems from a animal control, social and emotional view point. Our team of psychologists, veterinarians and animal welfare organizations work with concerned friends and family members to craft a real viable solution for the individuals and their pets.

As professionals in your industry and respected members of the Animal Welfare community, we ask that you help us put an end to animal suffering.

I was writing to see if you could possibly place a news article on your website or put a plea for an overwhelmed pet owner to come forward? If you could place a link on your web page to ours. www.animalhoardingproject.com

If you are interested in making Animal Hoarding a topic for public recognition, discussion and therefore action, please feel free to use us as a resource. Our website has statistics, links to our experts and their research. http://www.animalhoardingproject.com/

Ed,

What the hell is going on with these cats? Do you have any news from the raid? Is it another Mason type case??

I have no idea. I don't have time to do followups on all my posts. None of the above people have called me with any info. You call and tell me what they said and I'll post.
