My name is Mary Mondy and I live in Norcross Ga. At The Reserve at Peachtree Corners. And each unit has it's own family of cats. After speaking with Officer Tolbert he informed me that he could not come and pick up 4-Kittens who's mother came up missing. She was a loving mother. I used to see them outside my patio,but one night the kittens would cry and than the next two night, So I started to feed them they were so hungry. the mother has never returned, they get run over or chased by dogs or killed. I Saturday 8-3 I brought them to the Animal Shelter in Lawrenceville but was turned away and told I had to go to Owner Surrender make an appointment and pay 25.00 for each Kitten before you would consider taking them. Why is it so hard to get any agency to care about stray cats. VERY DISAPPOINTED
