Rescue of 12 cats from bitter cold and homelessness in Westerlo, NY (southern Albany County) - 16 Jan 2010

A family lost their home, leaving their 12 (unaltered) cats behind in Westerlo NY (southern Albany County) with no heat. A snow storm was on the way and temperatures fell below 20 when Animalkind received a call for help. We simply could not say no.

A few hours later all cats and kittens were transported safely to Animalkind, except for two which we must go back and trap.

All 12 cats rescued from the abandoned home (ranging from 6 mo. to 4 years) are affectionate and ready to be adopted soon!

Abandonment of felines in our current economy is happening too often and many people have the false belief that cats can survive on their own. This leads to many, many felines suffering and dying. Pets accustomed to relying on humans for care will not make it on their own, especially in harsh weather conditions.

Please help us helping the ones in need. DONATE today so we can continue our important mission.

Please donate to Animalkind NOW,
so we can provide needed care for animals who are suffering and in need of help.

We will do everything to help them and keep you posted.
Again..... please donate NOW.
Thank you!

Animalkind Inc.is a not-for-profit welfare, protection, rescue, rights organization dedicated to the compassionate care and humane population control of abandoned, feral and stray cats in Hudson, New York (Columbia County) and the surrounding area. We promote non-lethal prevention of an unwanted litter or litters of kittens through trap, spay, neuter, release (return), (tnr, TNR). An altered cat or kitten is released into a managed colony. Felines living in such colonies are assured kind daily care. Adoption to homes providing love and care for cats and kittens is encouraged. We also provide low or no cost spaying and neutering assistance to low income pet owners and help increase public awareness and education through the media, special events, and publications to promote compassion, respect, and kindness towards all animals.
