Found another pack of homeless cats, kittens look like skeletons.

It's just a baby, starving baby.

There'a an abandoned property few streets away from me. Lots of kittens, all very hungry and painfully thin. Lady that adopted a stray cat from me saw them and called me, I couldn't ignore them, they need help.
It's horrible, the way they react to food, like they didn't eat for months.
Can't afford another pack but I can't leave them without help either.

And there are also newborn kittens at that place I'm entering illegally, heard them yesterday, mom is hiding them.
So many new cats appeared recently, dumped like trash.

Oh the poor little mites! SBF I know you could never save all of these gorgeous creatures but I know that won't stop to trying to save as many as possible. I hope this new colony are all ok. well done hun. xxx
They are far from ok. Starving, unspayed, lots of kittens. And I'm alone with this nightmare, don't know what to do.

I'm working illegal job, for not even half of Polish minimum wage, everything is spend on cats. And those people who have it all, normal jobs with money, they don't give a $hit for those cats, won't even buy them a can of crap food, even if they are living on their doorstep.

I don't know Polish law. Maybe if you register as a charity or fundraising for say an emergency need it would be possible. Is there a way you could look into it?

Or even a PayPal acct, I think individuals can send money to each other via PayPal no issues.
I remember you having worries before about transfer of money but I don't recall exactly what the situation was. If people just donate via PayPal that may be fine.

It's better and safer just to send food via zooplus.pl

I'm hopeless with law, have trouble understanding the rules. All those beating and abusing, being tortured by my parents, just because I wasn't their perfect child, it destroyed something. Now I can't do even the simplest math or understand many things. I'm broken for life.

I can't have a normal life, but I can give one to those cats.

It would make sense for us to join forces, mrs funkin is already doing an order for some of us, but if someone would be willing to oversee a monthly order and collect our payments it would be good. I can't put myself forward to do it because health problems make me unreliable, but I will happily contribute money on a regular basis

I think a monthly order sounds fabulous, even if folk can't afford many pennies (and that may vary each month too, sometimes I have more spare pennies than other times) when it's all joined together it makes a nice order. I am happy to think about setting up a monthly order - and will start a new thread about it once we have done this "Emergency Kitten Relief" order.

@slartibartfast - prepare yourself, you might be getting a LOT of whiskas for the homeless kitties :)

I will continue to collate details for this initial order until 3pm today. If anyone wants to PayPal or bank transfer, just PM me I am home most of the day.

I am off to add things to my zooplus.pl order :)

This is amazing everyone, thank you. The response makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Well, this is a fab idea :)

Incidentally, would it be worth looking at the cheap grain free foods such as Smilla? They are so much more nutritious that Whiskas, and probably cheaper per kilo too. UK zooplus does massive bulk saver packs of them as well (including 800g tins), so if the Polish site is the same it might be worth a look.
