My friend and former student Kelsey recently bought a home in a Kansas City suburb--it was in foreclosure, and the former owner seems to have abandoned his cats in the yard when he left.
There are a total of five, I believe, and I think they are all orange. They are very friendly and affectionate cats, and they want desperately to get IN to the house.
Sadly, Kelsey and her son are very allergic to cats, so she just isn't able to give them a home with her. Apparently homeless animals are a huge problem in KC and most of them are euthanized if picked up by the humane society.
Is there anyone who can give these pretty little guys a home? It breaks my heart to see them staring into the patio door, longing to be taken in and cuddled. If I wasn't in dire straits myself, I'd think about taking them.
I do not know if they have been neutered.
If any one has any interest or hope at all, I will ask Kelsey for more information.

Hopefully, they are fixed.

They need to be snuggled up in the family love bed like me and my three monsters.

Reportedly that thrift store will farm out animals to farms as working cats, too. She can also get food assistance, and she needs to feed them now.
