We dedicate this page to the beautiful cats that didn't survive the fire. Below you can read the story that I wrote soon after the fire occurred in 2006 along with the update soon after. We have since gone on with our work of trying to find loving homes for other cats but we will never forget the ones we lost. I'd also like to dedicate this page to the other cats that didn't die in the fire, but have died while in our care while they were waiting to be adopted into a home. We loved them with all our hearts and we will miss them very much. Brea Cats in Need Suffers a Heartbreaking Fire The Brea chapter of Cats in Need has suffered a terrible loss. On the morning of January 21, 2006 there was a fire where 37 of our cats were being housed while awaiting to be adopted. We are very heartbroken to say that we have lost 17 cats to the fire. We don't even have the time right now to mourn the loss of them because we have 20 remaining cats that we need to either find permanent homes or foster homes for. The 20 remaining cats were taken to the Orange County Animal shelter. We have made arrangements with the shelter to get all of the cats out and into foster homes, but we need your help to move this process along more quickly. If you were thinking of adopting a cat, or know someone who is, please think of us. If you would like to foster a cat until it can be adopted out, please give us a call. Click here if you would like to donate money, every little bit helps. Once we get the cats back out of the Orange County Animal Shelter we will need money for their veterinary care (if needed) and for their continued personal care. You, the community of Brea (and our surrounding friends), have always been so generous to us. Please keep us in your thoughts and help if you can. Thank you so much for your continued support. If you think you can help, please call: Peg at (909) 865-1465 or Ilonka at (714) 271-4279 UPDATE!! All of the cats that survived the fire on January 21, 2006 are now all out of the Orange County Animal shelter. They have all been placed into foster homes but still need permanent homes. Some of them are also currently in the Brea Petsmart store waiting to be adopted. They are all doing fine now. It's as if they new that they came close to death because they seem grateful to be alive and some are even friendlier now then before the fire. Thank you so much for all of the support that you have shown us in this time of need. Of course, as you know, the care of the cats is ongoing, and any continued help that you can give would greatly be appreciated! These cats have been through so much and deserve a loving home more then ever now. [ 2346 reads ] |
