Original Post:

Our own Sonia, who has fostered more critters than I can count (most recently Justice), asked us to post this PSA. B'more area folks, especially, please post, email, tweet... and let the intertubes due its stuff...

I've been contacted by a local person of a situation in my area. Apparently at this house, there has been domestic abuse. The mother is in jail and the father is in the hospital. There were 30 cats in the home. Animal Control has come in and trapped all but 8 of the cats. The person that contacted me has promised Animal Control she would find homes or foster homes for the remainder. The have not been cared for (infested with fleas and very thin). If all the cats are not gone by the end of the weekend, Animal Control will be back to drive them to their death. Someone in the household signed a paper allowing them to be euthanized. I understand some of the cats are very young and loving.

I have been in contact with the Md Feline Society and they have offered to provide flea medication (Revolution). We are going to bath them and remove all the fleas before we adopt or foster.

I am at my limit and at my location (financially and just not enough hands to give them all the love they deserve). I am desperately trying to help save their lives and find them loving homes (or foster homes).

Please pass this along to anyone you think might be able to help save their lives.

Warm regards,

Sonia
