Even if the shelter is closed, someone should be there and may answer the
phone today. "Magic Mood Jeep©" wrote in message news:qV5mc.35628$0H1.3006012@attbi_s54... I went to the local Pet Smart yesterday, and in their adoption center there was a small, 8-10 week old kitten, white with black or grey spots. Poor thing was so tiny, had a very bad cold (URI), snot running down it 's adorable pink nose, and had poop & cat litter stuck to it's butt. When I went back to adopt the kitten (even though I already have 4 healthy, if somewhat lazy (yes, even Weeble), cats at home) after I had to discuss it with DH, kitten was gone! I inquired and the MOD said it had been taken back to the shelter it originated from - about 50+/- miles north, in the next county (Martinsville, in Morgan County)! Well, I feel so bad for that tiny thing, and I'm kicking myself for not acting impulsively when I first saw it - I can only hope that they didn't euthanize it when it got back to the shelter. I did find the shelter's website and emailed them asking about the welfare of the kitten, and if it would be at all possible that I donate money for the medical care of this kitten, if not adopt. I haven't heard back from them yet, but according to their website, they are closed on Wednesdays, and they were already closed by the time DH & I got home yesterday evening. Please, can everyone send lotsa purrs that the kitten is still alive and is getting treatment? -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

It's very sweet of you to try to help out this kitten! Have you tried
calling the shelter directly? That would probably give you faster results than email. How long ago did they send the kitten back to the shelter? If it was just a day or two ago, then they probably haven't euthanized it. Don't most shelters have a "sick ward"? And it is a kitten, after all - so there's a good possibility for adoption. I hope it turns out OK for the kitty! Joyce

I did manage to call the shelter today - the person who answered the phone
said that no cats were returned to the shelter from the Bloomington Pet Smart, she said that the worker (who feed, waters & cleans the cages at Pet Smart, they are volunteers for the shelter) probably took it home for some TLC. I'm going to call them again tomorrow - after I check at Pet Smart just in case Sniffles (my tentative name for the guy) makes a re-appearance. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!
