 Abandoned and Pregnant Cat: what to do? by Alexandra Sanders AKA the LadyWhoLovesBirds

A new kitty started coming around a couple of months ago. My  friend (and neighbor) kept tabs on her, watched as TOM cats came and went, put a collar on her with notes to her possible owners and finally realized that this sweet black kitty was on her own and pregnant. My help was enlisted as both local and county SPCAs could not offer any help, no fosters, no thoughts really other than "the pound MAY keep her a week but will probably euthanize her before the kittens are born". So this was totally unacceptable and I called my vet office, VCA of Santa Cruz, and was given the name of an organization that could possibly help us: http://www.headinghomerescue.org/ Melissa responded immediately to my e-mail and said, "Do you want us to find a home for this kitty and her kittens?" and my response was an unequivocal YES! So she met with us today and took this sweet kitty who will be fostered and allowed to have her kittens and homes will be found for all post neutering.

This was such a win-win situation. I feel most grateful to have an organization such as this and would recommend anyone reading this blog to consider donating. Such a great resource and I am so surprised that the local and county SPCAs do not give out this information. I plan to contact them about it as I am a monthly donor. I feel frustrated that this information was not forthcoming.

    I love birds; I love water; I love
    art. 
    I feel privileged to have found a way to combine
    these three elements 
    and create images of the birds I so enjoy.
