Totally Epic Cat Rescue
On a recent Saturday, Pilots To The Rescue Top Dog Pilot Michael Schneider and co-pilot Daniel Baumel flew 850 miles round-trip to save 33 cats and kittens, including seven mini-panthers pictured below.They met their feline passengers in Southern Pines, North Carolina:
- 12 kitties from Paws and Love Inc, a small nonprofit cat rescue in Washington, North Carolina
- 5 from the Humane Society of Dillon County in South Carolina
- 16 from our friends at Carolina Cat Rescue in Raleigh, North Carolina, who helped organize the effort.
All were originally strays, lost or unwanted and all needed the safety and comfort a loving home provides. All 33 safely made the trip to Danbury, Connecticut where they were transferred into the care of Cat Tales Rescue and Happy Tails Pet Rescue.
Our totally epic rescue even made the news!
