Hi there! Sorry for the silence on the blog lately, but it is all for good reason! You see, on Friday or so I was speaking to one of my neighbors and she casually mentioned a litter of 5 kittens that were hanging around her front porch. Since I am a HUGE cat lover, obviously I had to take a look. That was probably a big mistake, because now I’m in love, and I have made it my mission to get these kittens their vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and to loving forever homes.
Being outside is quite dangerous for these little babies because they are being fed random items from the neighbors, even chicken on the bone, and people tend to litter and I would hate for them to ingest something poisonous. They are so young and truly need proper nutrition and care, and I believe to have the best life, they need to be brought inside. I live on a very busy street, and there are quite a few raccoons and possums nearby, and I can’t bare the thought of anything happening to them.
(I could only get this picture of two of them with my camera)
Unfortunately, getting all of the shots for each kitten, and getting them spayed/neutered when the time comes is going to cost quite a bit of money. That’s where I am hoping some of you can help. I hate asking for donations, but I simply can’t afford this undertaking on my own. If you have anything to give, literally a dollar would help, it would mean the world to me and I’m sure if these kitties could talk, they would personally thank you!
If you can’t donate, that is totally fine! I would love if you could at least pass the world along, and hopefully we can get these kittens taken care of! Animal overpopulation is such an issue, and I am just trying to do my part to help out,
Here is an Instagram photo of the runt of the litter. This little guy has me a teeny bit worried, so I really want him to get checked out.
After doing loads of research, I have found it is going to cost about $20-$30 per kitten for their initial shots (not including rabies vaccines, which they will get when they are older), and an additional $30-$50 to get each one spayed/neutered. That’s a total of $250-$400 (not including microchips)!
So, if you would like to help, click the donate button below. You’ll be taken to the Paypal page and you can insert any dollar amount of your choosing. Again, thank you and if you do donate or help spread the word, please leave a comment so I can do something special for you!
Again, thank you so much, and I will definitely be updating you all on the journey!
The donate link isn’t working.
That is so weird
Some people are having difficulty and some are going through! Try it again, and if it is still a problem let me know, in the meantime I’ll try and see what I can do!
Thank you so so much though, you have no idea!
They are so cute–I hope you can get them fixed up with forever homes.
I’m not in the position to be able to donate, but let us know when you are ready to find them homes and I can pass the information on!
Make sure you also mention they are rescues, because some places have discounted prices. I know the Dearborn Animal Hospita [in Decatur] gave me a percentage off my cat’s first visit/shots when I let them know he was a rescue. I also had him neutered, and chipped [they offer rabies too, but he had already received it from Dearborn] for only $20 at the Atlanta Humane Society. They say they won’t take “trapped, feral, or aggressive” but I don’t know if you would consider these kittens that?
Best of luck!
Thank you so much! I’m going to contact the Atlanta Humane Society today!
