LA Animal Services in Desperate Need of Baby Bottle Fosters
LA Animal Services is calling upon all Angelenos to help the City of Angels reach a No-Kill status. During this time of year LA’s Animal Care Centers are inundated with lost and homeless cats. These cats have little chance of survival unless loving Angelenos find room in their heart and homes to adopt a cat or two. Cats are social animals and two are always better than one!
Many cats coming into our Animal Care Centers are orphaned neonate kittens; kittens too young to survive without their mother unless they are cared for by a foster care giver. LA Animal Services is asking for people unable to adopt a cat to consider caring for these young ones until they are old enough to be placed through adoption. Fostering orphaned kittens is a great family project. It teaches our kids the value of life and the importance of caring. It also demonstrates how we can all make a difference.
South Los Angeles Animal Care Center has issued an additional cry for help for bottle baby fosters for orphaned kittens and puppies less than six weeks old. The South Los Angeles Animal Care Center will hold a foster orientation for the month of April
next Sat., April 19 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.What You Can Do:
Anyone who wants to attend this session should email Tomika Johnson, Bottle Baby Foster Coordinator at
tomika.johnson@lacity.org or call (213) 485-0117/0119. Pass this notice on to anyone or any rescue group you know that may be able to help.
