Cats Need Rescuing From Hamilton Animal Control

Hello,
 
Most of you know we rescue cats on the rarest of occasions. But as an exeption, we agreed to help and try  to rescue a few cats.
 
The Hamilton Animal Control sent us a list of cats-16 of them on Monday- these cats were in dire need to get out as the Hamilton Animal Control does not have an adoption program.   Out of the 16 cats, we only managed to hold  1 cat. Jack the Scraggly Black Cat.
 
Sadly, the rest that were marked "urgent" were all put down on Tuesday morning.
 
A mother and her 6 wks kittens were put down and a fully pregnant female were not spared.
 
We are making sure the cats we are trying to help are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and have flea treatment. Most are declawed (done when they were someone's pet). These are all domestic cats. None are feral. There are many more at the shelter waiting to be helped...
 
Pleeeaassseeee help us rescue them by fostering a kitty or two.  We are desperate and it is so disheartening to see those faces and not be able to help.
  
This is urgent-as they will be put down .  Euthanazia days are Tuesdays and Fridays.
 
If anyone can help foster the following kitties please let us know ASAP.  We have a driver available to go to Hamilton to help transport the cats by 2h00pm Thursday if we find foster homes.  It would be nice to bring back a cat or two before they get put down on Friday. If there is any cats you can foster after this date, please let us know as we can also put the cats on HOLD to delay euthanazia date.
 
Please help!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Yours in Rescue,
