in the Lehigh Valley. This one already took place, but maybe the Animal Food Bank has another one planned for the near future? Their # is 570-994-5846.

Good luck!

I plan on taking the cats to Petco for their rabies and 3-in-1 shots. Then I can contact the Animal Food Bank.

which are low to no cost for the rabies shot, which is the biggie, since it is required by law.

salvation army stores (some) have bedding and beds for low cost. also salvation army gives vouchers for one piece of free furniture usually after a fire, but maybe the bed bug situation would qualify for the free bed.

i hope everything works out for you and kitties

Wish I could help. I will share your request, though.

their vet clinics for my cats' vaccinations for years; I think for rabies and the 4-in-1 shot it totaled $48 per cat. It used to be called the "Luv My Pet" service but now it's "Vetco" at Petco.

If you can save on vaccinations you can afford a better bed

I plan on taking Ruby to the Petco Saturday for her shots. Max will go in two weeks.



I have 2 cats, but only one carrier--and that one's broken because in December, my ex-roomie's cat injured her hind paw and we had to take her to the emergency vet. The vet had to break the carrier because she wouldn't come out of it. I'm afraid Max, with his size, might break it even more and escape the carrier.

as "insurance" against it breaking when I transport my "two-ton" tabby. I suggest putting some rope or other reinforcement around it. maybe heavy-duty packaging tape?

Came in handy when I went food shopping. Now it'll come in handy when I take Max, the giant kitty, to the vet.

And of course you need a comfortable place to sleep and to care for your cats. Contributed what I could today and wishing you and those adorable kitties all the best.

One day, I might be able to help someone in need. I would prefer to volunteer, but I haven't found any organizations that might need my help. I'm still settling in.

I tend to adopt older animals so I sure know about vet bills, so I can identify. Just take care of yourself and the kitties. Giving them a good home - and being comfortable yourself - is all that's important now. And please let us know how you are.

My cats got their shots yesterday. I only have one carrier, so I had to make 2 trips to Petco.

I got Ruby there before the store opened. She cried from the moment I put her in the carrier until I brought her home and let her back in the apartment. Then I scooped up Max, brought him to Petco, and lather, rinse, repeat. They're legal until next year.
