Prison Cat Rescue
Momma &
Six Kittens Need Foster Home
|
A Pregnant Cat Has Been Rescued From
An Orange County Correctional
Facility and Is Living Behind Bars Once Again At A Local Veterinary
Hospital Waiting For A Foster Family. |
|
A pregnant cat has been rescued from an Orange County correctional
facility and is living behind bars once again at a local veterinary
hospital.
The momma cat has since given birth to six kittens beautiful
kittens. Community Animal Network’s founder, DiAnna Pfaff-Martin,
says “These babies can’t be raised in a cage; we need the public’s
help.”
A foster family for the momma cat and her kitten family as well as a
family to house three four month old orphan kittens that still
remain on prison grounds is needed. Food and the veterinary medical
care will be provided by the Community Animal Network. Please call
949-759-3646 to help.
The issue of cats breeding on our local prison grounds is often
ignored until the population begins to rise. We have learned of
several correctional facilities whose cat population had reached
over 200 and the leaders ordered the animals starved to death.
The facility we are working with is eager to work with Community
Animal Network in order to get the animals get off the grounds
before the population continues to rise.
The three kittens remaining were born to a cat that an inmate raised
from a kitten at the institution. All are being cared for by the
inmates until help can be obtained and the pregnant cat was moved to
the safety of a boarding kennel before the kittens were born.

I f
the two of you sit at home
on a Saturday night charmed
with each other, but not the
crowds or the cost of going
out these days, consider
sharing your home and love
with a rescue cat or dog.
Layoffs
have stifled the American
Dream for many pet lovers.
People are losing their
homes while an
ever-increasing number of
family pets are entering the
local shelter system and
starting a life of
uncertainty.
Community Animal Network's
rescue phone lines are
flooded with calls from
those who are seeking help
because they know that
sickness and death lurk
behinds the municipal county
shelters' walls.
However, the same
problem faces all local
animal organizations: the
availability of funds and
volunteers to foster or
house animals in their homes
is not in proportion to the
number of animals needing
help.
You can
help by opening your home to
adoption or volunteering
your time to become a
pet-foster to an animal in
need. Rescue animals that
live in homes rather than in
kennel cages while waiting
for new homes have a better
chance of being adopted
because their caregiver can
tell the prospective
adopters about the animal’s
personality and house
manners and there is less
risk of sickness and
disease.
If you are unable to
adopt or volunteer, please
consider giving your support
to local animals through
monetary donations.

Local
animal rescue organizations
are not well-funded or
well-stocked with
volunteers which can lead
to cries for help going
unanswered and phone
management becoming
neglected.
Reflections of today’s
economics affect local
animals when people are
forced out of their homes
and into "no-pet" housing,
or when the owners in with
family members who are
often allergic to pets.
Many frustrated
callers claim to be huge
animal lovers that donate
regularly but can’t find
help for their pets. That
is because most donate
after watching a sad
animal rescue story on
television or after
receiving the latest
subscription newsletter
from a national charity.
Please know that those
funds are not available to
local animal
organizations that work in
your area.
Without
donating locally, these
animal groups cannot offer
to help animals in our
neighborhoods.

We know everyone would like help save -a-life and that is
why people consider adopting from the local shelter, or an animal rescue
group.
But before you do, you may want to know a few things;
First, you may be surprised to know that animal rescue groups are
not all the same! "Pro-Humane"
animal rescue groups operate under the same guidelines as
"Pro-Humane" animal shelters; meaning no all rescued will be
provided for until adoption. Especially those needing veterinary
expensive medical treatments.
Pro-Life /
Pro-Quality-Life animal rescue groups cover the cost of veterinary
care, surgeries and continual care for animals within the group. We
hope that you choose to support the animals within our Network of
local people rescuing and caring for animal in their home.
People haven't considered that adopting from a local
shelter could cost you

transporting your new animal to and from the vet to
treat the common upper respiratory and kennel cough.
And don't believe that you could endure the
suffering and heart ache if you were to return the animal to most
likely be euthanized.
If saving your bank account is important then you
should know the facts. Shelter animals often get sick 7 - 1 days
after you have adopted them and need treatment. If you don't have
the funds available your animal could suffer and if you have other
animals in your home the highly contagious upper respiratory
condition could be passed on.
The "real" cost of you new shelter pet will skyrocket
due to expensive treatments.

2 cats taped in a Bekins moving box
|
Residents came home &
saw a large taped at their front door with a note
written "thought you could help". When the
people looked inside one cat jumped out and ran
away. The residents called us for help but no
Foster's are available and they family would not
participate as a rescue foster for the single cat
rescue. Animal control was called. When animal
control came the second cat ran away. Unfortunately,
both cats now are loose in a canyon with coyotes
present. |
