Title: Birkenhead to Gosport, on the South Coast
Post by: LesleyW on June 13, 2007, 16:53:22 PM: If anyone can help with a relay from Birkenhead to Gosport, I am taking two female cats, one with kittens and possibly pregnant and the other one heavily pregnant and it would save me a long journey which I will do if I have to. The other problem is that the woman the cats are coming from has no carriers, so carriers would be required from the start of the journey although I could replace these with others at a meeting point.

If anyone anywhere between the starting point and ending point could also help Dawn with the other cats she is trying to move from this home, (see topic under Rescue and Re-homing) maybe this could be accomplished at the same time.

Due to the pregnancy of the second cat, journey is being planned for this weekend, Saturday probably.

Post by: LesleyW on June 13, 2007, 18:37:50 PM: Yes, Gill they are coming to me and I will take care of mum and kittens until all are ready to be found new homes (mums being spayed before then, of course).

The way things are going with the Ark stuff, I may be coming to see you and all these kittens you seem to have soon!
