“There were 62 cats abandoned to die in a house in the East End of Cincinnati that was foreclosed upon. They were ill and starving to death when they were found. Several local animal groups came together to help rescue them and get them veterinary care and foster homes until they could be adopted out to new loving homes of their own. It has been a monumental task, logistically as well as financially to undertake such a project. There are more details at the website, www.ForeclosureCats.org. There's some terrific Foreclosure Cat Art merchandise (mugs, note cards, pillows, mouse-pads, tote bags, etc.) available at www.foreclosurecats.com. Click on the pictures on the left-hand side under "great gifts for cat lovers". These are made from professional artwork that was created in the image of the foreclosure cats. Obviously, proceeds go to help cover the costs of vet and foster care of all the foreclosure cats. ”
Runaround Sue didnt surviveI fostered 4 of these darling little foreclosure kitties; they were so sick and damaged that one of them, little Runaround Sue didn't recover, and sadly she died. However, with lots of vet care, the other 3 recovered sufficiently to be able to be adopted out to loving families. 8 months later, of the original 60+ cats, we have almost 20 left that are still under vet care and/or are living in foster homes that need to be adopted out to homes of their own.
