Exclamation 60 kittens to be killed...

Around 60 kittens will have to be put down by lethal injection next Wednesday if new owners aren't found. They are at the Decoy Kitten Rescue centre in Newton Abbot, Devon.

Kittens which are due to be killed include three week old Sam, Frodo, Bilbo and Sapphire as well as a tabby called Winks.

The rescue centre, a registered charity, was set up three years ago by Claire and John Hardwicke.

Mrs Hardwickie, 37, said: ''It breaks my heart because it feels like we've put these kittens on death row. If they have nowhere else to live we'll have no choice but to put them to sleep. I just can't bear it.

The poor little things, it's not their fault

If anyone can help the full story is here; Sixty kittens to be put down as rescue centre closes - Telegraph

Re: 60 kittens to be killed...

I would have one if someone could help me out with delivery.
I cannot travel that far away leaving 7 dogs.
Do you know if there are any pic's of any of them and more details would be good.
Also i am going to spread the word.
This is a real heartbreaking story,we cannot let theses little ones die.

Re: 60 kittens to be killed...

What if we all donated some pennies to them? Maybe they could keep them for a little bit longer than Wednesday? If everyone just donated £1 or whatever they could afford, we could help find new homes for them and transport them etc.

Re: 60 kittens to be killed...

hmmmm - bit confussed why are they even thinking about destroying these kittens - why aren't they asking other rescues for help!!!

and why are they only advertising kittens - surely they would have other animals as well - rather than just 60 kittens!

Re: 60 kittens to be killed...

"The first we heard of this was a call yesterday, and Inspector then went to see the owner straight away," the spokesman said. "We have offered help but were told it wasn't necessary."

is it just me or am I the only one confused by this sentence
