Title: Appeal for homes 20 cats and 42 dogs!!
Post by: Millys Mum on October 23, 2007, 14:19:44 PM
A breeder cant cope anymore (in Essex) so the situation needs to be resolved before it becomes a cruelty case for the RSPCA to deal with. I dont have all the details yet but im putting this out to try and get things moving.

The dog breeds are hounds, pointers and dobermans. The cat breeds are bengal, BSH and one other.

If anyone may be able to help please PM me  :thanks:

Oh, how sad. :( Has anyone contacted local pedigree rescues?

If I was closer I’d offer to foster a cat or two but I’m pretty sure Essex is way south of Yorkshire. (we don’t trust our car on anything beyond back and forth to work any more!)

Hope these cats & dogs are rescued and go to good homes.

I'd love to "foster" a BSH or two too... ;)

Not sure OH will go for the idea, he never does but if he suddenly has a radical change of heart and we end up helping, I can pop a kitty or two a couple of junctions up the M1 to Yorkshire for you Sabrina. Like I say, it's reeeeaaallly unlikely but you never know...

Breeder with more the one breed  sounds like a puppyfarmer.

It does sound like it, but we don't know and it's not our place to judge. This person has had the sense to ask for help to put an end to this so help we will, as much as we can.

I can help with transport up to about 150 mile round trip from Manchester, incidentally.

Actually, I can definately help transport-wise, probably not all the way from Essex but if someone can help part way up the M1/M69, I could do from, say, Coventryish up to a reasonable distance. Again, a 150 mile radius of Derby/Notts area is about reasonable (as much as I could afford petrol-wise.)

Thanks for offers of transport  :thanks:

Again, offer of help with transport - we are south Manchester and can do around the 150 round trip mark too.

Best of luck for these babes :ahh:

I see Becca has also voluteered from Manchester, but I suppose we could be useful - eg: I could go collect from a more southern location to drop off with Becca and her to take the next step to a more northern location if needed? (or vice versa!) I do hope that makes sense!

Update: He said we can have one as long as we get rid of one of the ones we've got. I told him to pack his suitcase  :rofl:

How about Bengal rescue, the address is on CC .

I'd love to take a Bengal but my BIG Male Bengal Zubin won't allow it. He's very possesive of his Mum.
I hope these babes go in to the right hands.
Poor babes  :(
