A Devon Rex rescue has arisen in New York state:

"Madison (5 years) and Bianca (2 years) have been sitting in the Humane Society of Walden ( NY) shelter for three weeks now. This mother and daughter Devon Rex duo are not tightly bonded, in fact, they fuss with each other so two separate homes would be the ideal for these little ones.

"They are presently on medication for drippy eyes - no sneezing and no coughing, fortunately.

"Walden, NY is located near West Point - about a half hour from the CT border.

"Is there someone in this area or within driving distance of this area who would do a breed identification and/or take these girls out of the shelter to foster? Is there someone on either of these lists who would or could offer one of these Devons a loving home?

"You may contact me at 978-282-4861 to receive Devon Rex Rescue League support with relocation, meds, advice or to volunteer to adopt if we can get the girls to you.

"Or, you may call the shelter directly at 845-778-5115.

"I am now going to comb my client files for families in the NY/CT area that have enquired about adopting one of my retired cats and ask that other breeders do the same thing as these girls have to find homes VERY soon!"

Thanks!

Update: Just got news of an urgent Persian rescue, as well:

MARYLAND - URGENT RESCUE SITUATION!!!

I need a temporary foster (1-2 weeks) for 2 Persians - one of them a gorgeous red Persian with with URI that was pulled from a high kill shelter in MD today to prevent imminent euthanasia. I have a VERY temporary foster with a local rescue who has the cats in her bathroom because her feral cat rescue is full to the gills! PLEASE if you know of any rescue spots in MD or nearby D.C or Virginia or are in those areas and willing to foster and can isolate the cats, please let me know!!!!

OR if you can transport from MD to Western PA let me know!

Western PA, OHIO - URGENT! Rescue needs cages!

There's a great new Rescue in Northern PA run by a very experienced rescuer working with a great vet. There are purebreds washing up on the shores of rivers there, and more purebreds in desperate need of rescue in MD that they are willing to take in. They have ordered some cages but need cages NOW. The cages have to be large enough for a cat to comfortably live for the duration of an isolation period. If you are in the local area and have any cages you could donate or we could buy at a reasonable rate and get to them, please let me know! Call me, as I will be online less than usual until Wednesday. Toll free 888-303-9454
