TLC KITTIES NEED YOU!

TLC KITTIES NEED YOU!

The Ten Lives Club shelter at 3741 Lakeshore Rd. in Blasdell is seeking volunteers! CALL 716-646-5577, EXT. 101

Help care for our kitties until they find their forever homes! It is also a great way to earn community service hours or for youth organization projects.  Please contact Stephanie at stamoolisfam@yahoo.com for community service guidelines.

DUTIES INCLUDE: cleaning cages, scooping/changing litter boxes, sweeping, mopping, laundry, general cleaning/housekeeping and various odd jobs. 

DAYS/TIMES: 

MONDAY, TUESDAY & THURSDAY TO SATURDAY 

ANYTIME BETWEEN 9AM & 5PM

We have been short a vet tech lately and are way behind on processing incoming cats and performing surgeries. TLC had to take a small break in accepting surrenders. We have NO available cage space!  Every cage is full and we even borrowed more cages.

TLC is a free roaming shelter but new cats are kept in cages until seen by our vet. In our infirmary, we also use cages to keep germs from spreading.

This is only the 4th time in our 15+ year history we have had to stop accepting more cats. However, emergency situations arose and we had to help.

We are slowly catching up but please be patient with us.  Every staff member is overwhelmed and very overworked right now. 

Ten Lives Club staff is very committed and loyal!  Thank goodness for EACH of them! 

Thanks as always for everyone's support!  

We could not do any of this without each of you believing in TLC!

MAMA CAT & 5 KITTENS FOUND IN DUCT TAPED BOX RESCUED BY TLC!

Mama cat CHELLE & her litter of 5 babies!

 
On Monday, July 20, Ten Lives Club volunteer Ken Lyon was helping TLC prepare for their upcoming garage sale.  He discovered a cardboard box sitting outside the Ten Lives Club donation bin that was sealed with duct tape. When he heard meowing noises coming from inside the box, he immediately took it inside the shelter. 

Ken started removing the duct tape and a cat's head popped up through the opening! Inside was a mama cat and her litter of 5 newborn kittens who had been sealed up tight and abandoned in the hot July heat.  Ken and other Ten Lives Club volunteers and staff were appalled!  Who could do such a thing?  Why didn't they surrender them to the shelter which was only a few yards away?  Instead, they shoved this poor mama cat and her babies into a cardboard box, duct taped it shut so there was no way to escape and left it by boxes of donated items like a piece of trash!  In the middle of JULY!

Dr. Fisk examined them and determined that the kittens were between 7 and 10 days old.  The mama cat and all of her babies were okay.  Thankfully, it appeared that they had been inside the box for about 15 minutes or less.  Had it been much longer on a hot 80 degree July day, the outcome would not have been so good.

WIVB Channel 4 and WGRZ Channel 2 did a wonderful job covering this heartbreaking story.  Both broadcast stations sent reporters to interview Marie Edwards - TLC President & Founder, Ken Lyon and Dr. Fisk the very same day.  

Ten Lives is so grateful for the kind donations and compassionate response for these sweet kitties thanks to WIVB and WGRZ! People from not only Western New York, but all over the United States have shown their support!  THANK YOU!

The mama cat - now named "Chelle" - and her 5 babies are being fostered by a seasoned Ten Lives Club volunteer.  Chelle will be available for adoption in a few weeks once her babies are weaned and she has been spayed.  Her babies will be available for adoption around the end of September.
 

Call 716-646-5577 for more information 

about adopting Chelle or her babies!

It will cost approximately $1,000 for Ten Lives Club to treat & prepare these kitties for adoption.

KITTENS FOUND IN DUMPSTER BROUGHT TO TLC!

On Friday, May 15, 2015, Ten Lives Club received an urgent phone call from a local veterinarian we work with regularly.  Their clinic took in some newborn kittens and needed our help immediately.  

That morning, while emptying a dumpster in South Buffalo, employees from Modern Disposal found two plastic bags with FOUR newborn kittens inside.  These poor little babies still had their umbilical chords and the afterbirth was also in one of the bags!  The employees saw no sign of the poor Mother cat who had her babies ripped away from her as soon as she gave birth.  

Unfortunately, it was already too late for two of the newborns but somehow the other two were hanging on - barely.

Ten Lives Club brought the two surviving newborns to the shelter for immediate medical attention and care.  They were literally only HOURS old & needed fluids and round the clock feedings.  One of our wonderful foster volunteers stepped in to help.

Despite our best efforts and care, one newborn passed away on Saturday and the other one followed on Monday.

READ NEWS STORY HERE...AND HERE

What a cruel and irresponsible way of dealing with an unwanted litter of kittens.  

Ten Lives Club is deeply saddened and outraged about this unbelievable act of cruelty against these poor newborn babies and the Mama cat, who's whereabouts are unknown. 

These newborn kittens were bagged up & thrown away like pieces of TRASH!  Meanwhile, the Mama cat, if she's still alive, will continue to have litter after litter of unwanted kittens...

There is a simple solution to unwanted litters - 

SPAY & NEUTER!
