Critters 4 U Rescue, recently rescued 16 cats and kittens that were abandoned in a Williamsburg Howard Johnson Hotel. They were found not healthy. The 16 cats were found sick with severe URI (Feline Upper Respiratory Infection). One cat gave birth soon after they were rescued. At least two are pregnant, three are older, five are just kittens. They are on medication for URI, intestinal parasites  and have gotten flea and deworming medication,. Two cats are scheduled for major dental surgeries. They are recovering pretty well, emailed Angel Recoy with the rescue organization, The future for the cats is pending.


“Once I get these all healthy then as there is space they will be at Cups and Claws (in Newport News) for adoption if their temperament and personality matches that kind of environment,” she added.
The organization is having a shoe drive fundraiser. Any kind and any size is accepted. They will go to an organization that distributes them around the world to the leas fortunate and in turn get funds for medical care.  
To donate shoes email critters4urescue@yahoo.com.  To donate money: venmo (@Critters4URescue),  cash ap ($Critters4U), and paypal . To donate for medical care, contact Hilton Animal Hospital 757 223 9414.  Progress of the cats and kittens will continue on VA Peninsula Media’s weekly e-newsletter.
