Neko came in with her mother and siblings a few weeks ago. For whatever reason, she’s about 1/3 the size of her sister, but she’s healthy and feisty. Most people seem afraid to even touch her, for fear she’ll break like a glass ornament. Her sister is super-pretty but no one seems interested in her either… I am not sure if they don’t want to break up the two sisters, or are worried Neko is sick and Amelia might come down with whatever she has, or if it’s simply a matter of there being hundreds of kittens being born right now and not enough homes for them all.

Please feel free to forward this to anyone who might be able to give either of these girls — or their very sweet mom — a home. If you know of anyone who has cats (or dogs) that aren’t spayed and neutered, please let them know there are programs to help with this. Here in Henderson County, it’s free for low income households and Community Partnership for Pets has low-cost vouchers for everyone else. Mst areas also have programs for trapping and neutering ferals. Imagine – if everyone fixed their pets, the cycle of death could be ended within just a couple of years.
