Update Post πŸ€πŸ•ŠοΈUpdateπŸ•ŠοΈWe were unable to rescue some yesterday. They are shown below. Rest well little ones. Please keep comments to this post only out of respect for those lost & the communities feelings on this sensitive matter. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ€πŸ•ŠοΈ

As hard as we try to find rescues to save these kittens & cats it can be nearly impossible when they are all full now. So with very few adoptions there are little to no spaces opening for these poor cats. Unfortunately yesterday was another very sad day for the rescue teams. We even lost very young kittens. Neptune was only weeks old and Pryce only a few months. Not that it matters which ones or how old, none of them deserved this cruel fate. Brighton Talulla Payden & Zuri… were all worth saving! We just didn’t find rescues open. It’s heartbreaking. We need to start finding homes for those in rescues now or it will only get worse. There’s whole families listed now that we have nowhere to place. It’s getting worse and worse, but will still try our best to help them.

Has anyone tried going to the media about this? Some bad press may move the powers that be to take action. RiP babies ❀️

It’s been tried many times I’ve been told. We are working on some other angles though believe me! Things will have to change soon. πŸ™πŸ»

Maybe foreign media would be interested? From other countries? Could even be more effective to shame them into improving

I can try in my country, Germany. Others should try in other countries
