Additional Info/situation:
One set mama and kittens saved from high-kill shelter in Thibodaux, LA, and have been in foster care for about a month. Other set was owner-surrender from Golden Meadow, LA, and have also been in foster care. All in good health, just have been waiting for kittens to reach spay/neuter size (2#) so rescues can adopt them out quickly.
Pilot will need medium crates (2) so each family unit can ride separately from the other. One set is only mama and 2 kittens; the other 5 kittens belong to the other mother, so this crate will need to be a little larger to accommodate so many kittens.
Receiving rescues will be ready for both sets any time AFTER July 1. All cats/kittens need to fly into either Pearland (LVJ) for transport across the city to NW Houston or directly into one of the NW Houston airports, i.e., Hooks (DWH) at Tomball
Weather kept interfering with both a PnP flight and also the ground transport. Julian Sanchez was relentless and managed to get these felines to their new foster home on Sunday. Now they can be spayed and neutered and ready for adoption within the next 2 weeks. Thanks, Julian!
