A friend has two kittens up for adoption, anyone interested?

A friend of mine has two adorable and sweet kittens up for adoption to a good home. They are sisters from the same litter and are approximately 4 months old. They have not yet been vaccinated or spayed, so any new owner would need to get that taken care of ASAP. Spay Neuter Charlotte has a special where you can get a kitten fixed and vaccinated for only $99.

PM me or respond here if you are interested.

seeing your animal still "under" the same day they just had surgery...is heartbreaking to watch. It's worth the extra money for them to be monitored and kept over night at your vets office

Except all of the vets Ive ever taken my animals to dont monitor the pets at night - in fact there isnt anyone at the office at all - the pets are better off at home with you so you can watch them overnight and get them to an emergency clinic if necessary.

Had they stitched her up correctly to begin with her intestines wouldn't have ended up poking out of her abdomen....

I'm bitter with the humane society

The humane society here doesnt have their own doctors - they give local vets a flat rate to come into their facility and work on the animals. Its piece work for the vets and you get what you pay for. Usually the least experienced vets that are trying to establish a practice or one that doesnt have a very good repetoire with their customers owners - thus the need to make some money. Of course Im sure there are a few who do it out of the kindness of their heart.

While were on this subject - this happened locally here - pretty sickening - its time for the state of North Carolina to bring their animal welfare laws into the 20 th century.

Leland, N.C. - Animal rescue groups and the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office seized more than 100 dogs from a suspected puppy mill Friday afternoon in Leland.

Kim Alboum, director of the North Carolina Humane Society, said the animals, which include poodles, Yorkshire terriers and shih tzus, have been living in tight, uncomfortable living conditions in a doublewide trailer without electricity.

Cages were stacked on top of one another, and in some instances, rescuers found cockroaches crawling on puppies.

Alboum described the living conditions as "atrocious."

"This is the worst puppy mill I have seen in North Carolina," she said. "Those animals inside that house were suffering immensely. It is filthy, disgusting."

Brunswick County sheriff's deputies arrested the dogs' owners, Andrew and Amelia Millis, of Wilmington, on charges of animal neglect and animal cruelty charges, but authorities did not have the exact charges Friday evening.

A final count on the number of dogs rescued also wasn't available.

They were being evaluated Friday evening and were to be taken in by animal rescue groups, including the SPCA of Wake County where their health would be further evaluated before any dogs could be put up for adoption.

The SPCA said it will be a minimum of a week before any of the animals they receive will be put up for adoption.

Anyone interested in doing so should contact the SPCA.

According to the Humane Society, rescuers pulled 1,000 dogs out of puppy mills in North Carolina last year.

The Humane Society says enough is not being done to protect animals.

“Despite numerous, recent high-profile cases revealing unacceptable and completely avoidable animal suffering at inhumane puppy mills in North Carolina, the legislature has yet to pass regulations to protect dogs in commercial breeding facilities,” said Kim Alboum in a written release, North Carolina state director for The HSUS. “The horrible conditions in which these dogs were found today are indicative of our dilemma across the state and we simply must have regulations in place to protect these helpless animals.”

The HSUS has established a reward program offering up to $5,000 to anyone who provides any information leading to the arrest and conviction of a puppy mill operator for illegal animal cruelty. The HSUS tip line is 1-877-MILL-TIP. Callers can will remain anonymous.
