Our sister Vickie in Sellersburg, Indiana rescued these 3 adorable kittens and they need homes. They were found abandoned in a wood pile behind Old Hickory Pit BBQ in Louisville, KY. There has been no sign of their mother.
And there is another feral mother with a litter of 7 even smaller kittens that she's trying to capture from the same location. The kittens' eyes are not yet open. The mother has obviously never had contact with people, and her tail is gone, probably burned from the fire pits behind the restaurant. A number of cats have died at this location because cats climb into the fire pits to get warm, but then they often can't get back out. They also get killed or injured when the wood is chopped. Metro Louisville Rescue will pick up the kittens, but they said they would have to euthanize them immediately due to the large number of kittens they already have.
These three are fat little sweeties, so their mom did take good care of them. Vickie is trying to capture both of the mom cats so she can have them spayed, even if she has to return them to where she found them.
But these beautiful babies, and the ones yet to be rescued, need furever homes! If anyone in the cat blogosphere could adopt them, or if you know of a no-kill shelter or other organization in the Louisville area that would take them and their mother cats without euthanizing them, PLEASE let us know! Vickie already has 11 rescued cats and can't possibly keep these 3 kittens or the 7 yet to be rescued, or their mothers, no matter how much she'd like to!~~ Sharolyn & Suzanne
