Rescued Cats from Hoarder

A huge rescue mission occured on January 31, 2007 to help many cats who lived with an alleged hoarder in Gwinnett County. A Good Mews volunteer, along with several other vet techs assisted Dr. Melinda Merck and the wonderful team at Gwinnett Animal Control rescue and perform exams on 36 cats.  They were then placed within the rescue community so there would be no chance they would have to be euthanized in the already overcrowded facility. Five cats are temporarily being housed at the Cat Clinic of Roswell awaiting placement with a rescue group.

Fiona has severe ear infections.                      Mr.Bojangles has rotting teeth.

Good Mews was able to take in 12 cats, one of the largest rescues we have ever been able to do at one time!  All of these cats are in need of a lot of medical care. Dental work is the most obvious need. Many of these cats have rotting teeth causing severe infections.

Brooke is in kidney failure.

Heather has severe dental disease.
