The animals left Los Angeles aboard a total of 22 airplanes Friday. They’re heading to states like Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Illinois and Wisconsin in an airlift organized by the Wings of Rescue group.
The departure of an additional 200 animals was moved to Saturday because of wind damage at their destination shelter.
Wings of Rescue pilots donated their time and planes for the Holiday Airlift, which takes animals from crowded shelters to no-kill facilities elsewhere.To date, the group has relocated more than 16,500 pets in five years.
Co-founder Yehuda Netanel says everyone feels accomplished after an airlift but wishes they could take even more animals.
We at The Best Cat Page wish all these babies the best of luck!
