CROSS POSTED FROM CATCHAT...
Subject: Urgent appeal for cats and kittens!
Urgent help needed! Over 70 cats and kittens need rescue spaces! Due to be put to sleep and places need to be found! Please call Becca on 0798 085 1099 tonight (if possible) to secure places in rescue. Euthanasia starts tomorrow morning.
From what I understand a woman has let her cats breed out of control. She now has over 70 cats and kittens there (and a load of Chihuahua's but they are sorted) and local large rescue has gone in and taken some already. They start to euthanase tomorrow because they feel there are too many to deal with.
They are in Watford.
Hope someone can help.

Has anyone spoken to CP HQ?
I hope something can be done to save these poor cats. People like that should be shot >:(

I don't know Mark.
All I know is what was in the post I crossposted here :(

Sorry ~ Just noticed there's another thread on this in Rescue and Rehoming :-[
-
For something this important it doesn't matter - These cats could be dying in a matter of hours :'(
It would be good if the original poster could reply as we don't know who has been contacted.

JackSpratt posted the original thread here.
Maybe he/she could find out more?
-
I would expect Watford CP have been contacted and would in turn contact HQ?

Have replied - and quite agree. Posting in more than one section under these circumstances is acceptable.

Have spoken to Becca re speaking with CP HQ.
She try to give updates on here or CC.
Edit to include PS
PS Update from Becca on CC:
hi thanks so much for crossposting this have had brilliant response.
4 animals were seized from her house yesterday for further investigation and evidence, they are coming back for them all and we know what will happen if that goes ahead, the lady changed her mind late last night and is holding on till they turn up, all i can do is now wait with fingers crossed i get them before they do. i shall update this as soon as i hear what she decides.

Great news. :)
I just hope this woman doesn't get any more cats :tired: - It was a lucky escape this time with most rescues full to the brim and with waiting lists. I just wish they made it law to need a licence to own any animal with severe penalties for anyone breaking the rules.

Does anyone know from where the kittens will be homed? :wow:

Quoted from CC:
'They are at various different rescues but many are in the Midlands and here in Northants with myself and another rescue.'
If interesed maybe you could email the poster (Tracy) on Cat Chat :)
