Never Thought This would be so hard

This is a special section for cats needing new homes and for inspiring stories of cats that have found their furever home through Catster or through the love and energy of rescuers. This is also the place to discuss shelters, rescue organizations, rescue strategies, issues, solutions, etc. and how we can all help in this critical endeavor. Remember that we are all here for the love of cat! If you are posting about a cat that needs a new home, please put your location in the topic of your thread so those close by can find you!

Mom is looking into different options for help. She has contacted our state senator who is an animal advocate, and a local news anchorwoman who is one also. She also contacted the board of supervisors who are in charge of the shelter. Thank you all for you support. Mom is sure she will be with those little tykes again, and can't wait to love on them.

Oh I am so, so sorry... frown We don't understand how people like that can manage a shelter to begin with! Just horrible!

So sickening...just babies...but I know that there's just no answer...I held on to a foster for 5 months because the no kill wouldn't take her after a 3 month wait..she hissed at the pen they stuck in her face...I encourage you to continue your fight...this was WRONG...I'm so sorry...

Thank you Ava Corrine for your support. Mom is going to try and get to the bottom of this, and is thinking of contacting PETA and ASAPC.

Dad called mom from work and wanted to know about the kittens because one of dad's coworkers was going to go the shelter to see the little guy this weekend. Mom had to tell Dad that the shelter killed them. How Horrible!

Man. I'm at a loss for words. How in the world could they kill five kitties who were obviously so loved and had someone who cared about them? Definitely sounds like there is something fishy about this shelter manager, even if they did scratch him that is not a reason to kill those babies! Maybe they were scared, Taz flips out and growls and snaps at people every time she has to be left at the vet without me. It's perfectly natural for them to be scared when they are first moved to an unfamiliar place with strange people and smells. I am so disgusted, I really hope you are able to get this shelter manager fired or at least investigated for his despicable behavior. It's sad but a lot of time these bureaucrats who run shelters really don't love animals, they are just there for a paycheck. Ugh. I'm so mad, I can't even imagine what you must be feeling right now =(

Oh sad to hear after your fostering and giving them a start in life that you would give them to a kill shelter, They will be killed, they all lie say they will find homes for them, but kill them anyway, get them all back if they arent allready dead then get them homes through catster, there are many other ways to get them homes, shelters kill, even no kill shelters transfer their over load to kill shelters , I am an older kitty been trrough alot but I am sure nobody will adopt an older kittie like me but at least for now I get a chance to live and get better first

I am sorry, I did not read all the post and know they were killed the same day they went back, the care 2 stie we can start a petition to remove that manager , my humom wont foster for any shelter because most of the time this is what they do and its not just your shelter its all of them, so the focus for us who do care is to find furever homes ourselfs, dont think there is such a thing as a safe shelter, not that I know of in Michigan at least, need to nail this managers butt to the wall, letting go what happend means he wins and the kittens die in vain, lets all focus on contacting everyone we can peta, governors office, mayor , TV stations, raise a big stink about it and things will change
