This run has filled thanks to the generosity and kind hearts of some very wonderful people - some who offered to transport and some who cross-posted and/or told their friends.
I will send out a run sheet to transporters late tonight or tomorrow AM.
My heartfelt thanks to you all!

*****THIS CRITICAL TRANSPORT HAS FILLED!*****
NEWPORT NEWS, VA - RIVERDALE, GA
SATURDAY - FEBRUARY 27th, 2010
***** THANK YOU ALL! *****
REASON FOR TRANSPORT: Shelter to vet to Rescue: We have been informed of a significant situation in Newport News, VA. The shelter has little room and has already had to put one cat down, leaving 4 Persians. Our affiliates in the local area are full. We do have space in Atlanta for these Persians, but we need to get them there URGENTLY. We have been told we MUST have them out ASAP and that three or four more are coming in, which we will try to add to this transport, if possible!
So, it is possible we will be transporting up to 8 cats in carriers!
