| Like
most helping communities where needs continually overwhelm resources,
animal rescuers have an active grapevine. Here's how Daphné
and Cedrick found their way to JCHS.
Plea
from a Vinton Animal Shelter Volunteer—Need
rescue for 2, 14-week-old kittens with a congenital condition
that makes them blind. One has film on both eyes, the other
on one eye. Otherwise in good condition and friendly.
Pix
from a different Vinton Animal Shelter Volunteer—I
am forwarding these in hopes to find a foster home for these
babies. If you (or anyone you know) can foster them, please
let me know asap.
Response
from a Washington County Animal Rescuer—I
will cc to others who may know of a home for the little ones.
Blind kitties do fine unless there are pestering dogs around.
We had a blind and deaf cat—it happened to her gradually,
which is different—but she didn’t let anything slow
her down!
Response
from a Cedar Rapids Animal Rescuer—If
anyone ever needs input about living with blindness in a cat,
I am happy to provide assistance.

Response
from JCHS Adoption & FosterCare—Will
spread the word all over.
Response
from a Vinton Animal Shelter Volunteer—Thank
you for your response. I just got rescue for them a short while
ago.
Response
from JCHS Adoption & FosterCare—Wow,
that was quick!
Response
from JCHS Member—
Guess what? Tom
and I won the blind kitten lottery! We must have been the first
to reply. Here’s a picture!
Isn’t
she adorable?... |
—not
much
