Rescuing animals from high-kill shelters is already hard enough…
At Alexandra Morgan’s Animal School, in Warren, RI, the staff not only train animals, they also help out with various aspects of rescue and rehoming for both dogs and cats. In late June, they took in 13 kittens who were shipped up to them from a very high-kill shelter in Georgia. The intention was to keep them for a week to ensure they were not coming down with any illness, and then find them all good homes locally. They had been told the kittens were all in good health, and had been checked by a vet and given first vaccines. The note that arrived with the kittens said only “Need to be wormed.” If that had been all they needed, all would have been well.
