Are you a 501c3: Receiving
Additional Info/situation:

Puppies and kittens are needed in Houston by Friday, 12/21, in order to be ready for adoption events this coming weekend. The weekend before Christmas lends itself to increased puppy and kitten adoptions, though applicants are screened carefully by both rescues.

Weather permitting, Thursday, 12/20 would be ideal. Crates needed, although kittens can ride in cardboard carriers which I can provide. Each litter needs to remain separate. Four larger kittens would require a medium-large crate, while other 2 litters can easily ride in one small crate each. Two Catahoula pups can ride together in a medium-small crate. If the Chi does come, he, too, would only need a small crate.

Please help get them to Houston to begin their new lives!

Hi Carolyn,
I'm working all week, so I can't fly until the weekend. If these critters can wait 'til first thing Saturday morning, I can go to NILA and bring them back to Pearland. I'm fueled up and ready to go, so I can leave at the crack of dawn and be in NILA in a couple hours or less.

Got this one done today, 12/22, thanks to Tom. Wound up sending 2 Catahoula pups and 7 kittens to Houston-area rescue. Fingers crossed that some will get adopted tomorrow!!
