KittyKind is not above taking advantage of people who foster for them and the Public should always be aware of this. The Verizon website "KittyKind Foster Abuse" is no longer active. KittyKind's Top Posting by Volunteers and friends is an attempt to bury the bad press that they generate for themselves. Go to this site to see how they treated someone who volunteered and fostered for them over a 7 year period. http://kittykindajourneyofathousandlies.yolasite.com/
The Only Thing Necessary for Evil to Triumph is for Good Men to do Nothing.
Be sure your voice is heard when anyone tries to take advantage of you.

Laurie Bleier Pieces video but ask yourself these questions
When Marlene Kess who was found with 250 dead cats in her backyard needed Josie Marrero as a tireless volunteer at KittyKind to clean cages, transport sick cats to the vet; foster cats; bottle feed kittens and much more, Josie Marrero's integrity, honesty and dedication were not at question.
When Marlene Kess who was found with 250 dead cats in her backyard needed Josie Marrero to take KittyKind cats to the vet (supposedly to be paid back later) Josie Marrero's integrity, honesty and dedication were not at question.
When Marlene Kess who was found with 250 dead cats in her backyard needed to borrow money for personal reasons, (had to go to court to get it back) Josie Marrero's integrity, honesty and dedication were not at question.
When Josie Marrero took KittyKind and Marlene Kess to court and posted about her experience, suddenly laurie bleier took it upon herself to try to discredit josie.
Laurie Bleier who enjoys hate campaigns against Charlene Pedrolie, the Mayors Alliance, Josie Marrero and others who I encourage to come forward.
The video does not show (because it is stop and go) how Josie asked Laurie if she had other cats in her home (pretense of adopting) and told her she could not adopt this kitten because it had FELK and had to be an only pet. It does not show the $250 spent on vet bills. $50 for adoption - dear God it's a give away and a vet condoned the adoption to a very good home!

Laurie Bleier Denies Wrongdoing despite the FACTS
Just as she denies that her pal Marlene Kess had 250 dead cats in garbage bags in her backyard in NJ.

Who do I need to get this to at the CACC?
For over a year now Laurie Bleier has been banned from taking dogs from the CACC. She has a record of being difficult to work with and of not being responsible with the animals she took. One dog that she pulled was found wandering the streets (that was her downfall with CACC). A few months ago she left a dog at a vet’s office because it turned out not to be adoptable. When the pet community on Craigslist raised a stink, she said she took the dog back. I wonder what actually happened to that dog.
You have an undercover employee supplying her with dogs. Ms. Bleier has recently been seen taking a puggle from a female manager at the CACC. She immediately met someone to whom she adopted the dog. The adoption took place in the CACC parking lot, a very quick turn around.
She is constantly and relentlessly attacking the Board of Directors and Mayor’s Alliance both on Craigslist and through a “coalition” of her friends. You need to find your employee who is giving these dogs to Ms. Bleier – she is obviously choosing very adoptable animals and making adoption arrangements prior to picking them up with the aid of your female manager. Your female manager is assisting her every step of the way by holding the dog for her and then releasing it to her when she arrives. I wonder how many people asked to legitimately adopt the dog and were told it was already adopted? Those adoption fees would probably be very useful to the CACC, instead Ms. Bleier is enjoying the cash while staging protests about how badly the CACC is being run.

NYC Homeless Pet Advocate
On Tue, 8/11/09, NYC HOMELESS PET ADVOCATE
When I warned people not to enable scammers like KittyKind and Marlene, these are the people that I was referring to, enablers that harass those who simply post about their experiences with KK and MK. If the experience wasn't a good one, they don't want the public to hear about it. They hope you'll just go away so that the public can forget about the "incident". This is how scamming and betrayal of public trust continues.
http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeyfg4f/kittycatfosterpitfalls has all the information they don't want posted anywhere, by anyone - ever. It has:
- Questions you need to ask if you plan on fostering/adopting a pet
- Free Forms for you to start your papertrail if fostering from RESCUES
- Charities Bureau Links so that you can start getting information about anyone claiming to be a Non Profit 501c3 and the financial information posted about listed/registered charities
- Healthy Kittens: A Checklist for you to use when evaluating a pet for foster or adoption
In short, it tells my story and shares what I learned so that you don't have to become a victim of the unethical "rescues" popping up all over New York.

Craigslist Used to be an Information Board - What Happened?
I’ve been in contact with Craigslist over the past 5 years over this group that calls themsleves a “coalition.” They demand that I stop posting information for people to use and dream up new tactics to get my messages flagged. Craigslist has been kind enough to review everything and let me continue to post.
These people have been looking for strategies for years now to get me blocked from Craigslist: Accusing me of everything from posting social websites; slander; defamation and misinformation to god knows what. They accuse me of things they themselves have been boldly guilty of (samples included).
These are the very people who post events sometimes up to 8 times in a row, who post their own websites, who post videos that are against TOU, who post false adoption events in another person's name and post their address and phone number - sophomoric stuff for a grown woman. In response to the following post someone responded on CL saying that some of this was directed at her specifically.
*********************************
Buzz words in the message boards cover issues from Backyard Breeders to Scams.
Sometimes people can’t understand why Rescues charge so much for adoptions
Others can’t understand why rescues always take the smaller, more adorable, more adoptable dogs from the shelters when the larger dogs are the ones that are in most danger.
Are rescues non profits/charities? Prove they’re not! Prove they are! One topic often sets another one off because rebuttals are quickly posted while the emotions are still running high on the issue at hand. Sometimes a really hot issue can go on for months until Management steps in and puts accounts on Hold. Whew!
Links posted for people to research registered charities are flagged. What's someone hiding? Not a non profit but still posing as one?
Other Buzz words:
Condemnation: You’re a thief / liar/ incompetent/
Denials: I am not a rescuer or affiliated with a rescue but . . .
Factual information: Actual links to databases, websites . . .
Personal Experience: What happened to this person
Personal Experience trashed as not Factual: You can’t prove that . . .
Allegations created out of thin air: You just made that up!
Non Profit / Rescue / or Scammer? The Question resurfaces constantly:
People questioning motives: Is it about the animals or business?
People exposing motives: Backyard breeders, Alex Borders . . .
Flagging: Tag Groups for Flagging, frivolous flagging, Flagging under false pretenses . . .
Then posting derogatory responses: What are you talking about? Where’s the post so I can see what was actually written? Gone? Oh, then there’s only what you have to say once you’ve flagged them.
People trying to expose bad practices:
People trying to silence them: some very weird postulations . . .
Hey! Do these people all know each other?
Find the stories behind these tidbits on http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeyfg4f/kittycatfosterpitfalls
What would these people be doing if there were no internet or Message Boards?
I think they might just explode!
This very post created quite a stir on another message board - guilty by association flagging.
******************************************
These are the very same people who post petitions to remove Board members of the ACC; who say the ACC is incompetent, inefficient . . . Before you know it they'll want to replace the Craigslist Board! I have referenced several their postings; I never use inappropriate language, names, I never post phone numbers. I never tell anyone to “drop dead soon.”
Everything I post is General Information that is helpful to people who want to adopt a healthy pet and follow the Attorney General's guidelines for transparency. I make it clear that my own horrendous experience has been with one or two of the rescues and am not generally bashing all rescues as this person is trying to make others believe.
I've been posting the same information since 2005 and people still write thanking me for giving them the information. I have included a small number of those postings - my work is appreciated.
I have included some postings that I've been accused of posting because either the person posting agrees with me; exposes similar abuses or/and (according to the "coalition") writes or sounds like me?
The new CL Police added that, "I have removed all my posts from CL now that I know the rules.." How long have they been posting their drama and NOW claim that they finally know the Rules? This is something you're supposed to agree to before you open an account.
******************************
Let me Quote something that I was accused of posting:
Date: 2009-11-10, 7:42PM
"Why did KittyKind come into union square park by 16th St. to scream at a woman who was standing with a box with cats? The Vendors in the Park witnessed this confrontation of a private citizen. KittyKind threatened to call the police, it is not clear what charges they had in mind. THEN they took three of the cats from the woman, then they returned and harrassed her some more. In front of witnesses. This is not the first time that KittyKind has interferred in other people's cat adoptions. What right do they have to sayANYTHING to ANYONE on the street? They have been reprimanded, for previous threats, by the Mayor's Alliance but I guess that's not good enough for them. They refuse to follow ANY rules except what they make up. This is pathetic since one of their Board of Directors is a criminal attorney in Brooklyn. I, and other bystanders, listened to her harrass another non profit volunteer, someone with kittens on 17th St. last July, then tried to get the adopter to give her the kittens. Anyone know what their problem is and why they stralk people on the streets of Manhattan?. KittyKind has 30 cages, FOR FREE, all year long, in good weather and bad, INSIDE the Petco Store on 17th St and Broadway in Manhattan. They roam the surrounding area and harrass the people doing cat adoptions OUTSIDE in the weather, who do not have a FREE STORE SPACE TO SHOW THEIR CATS. This is ILLEGAL behavior for a non profit. It is against the law to do this kind of harrassment. If ANYONE approaches you ON THE STREET and harrasses you, call 911 immediately. Take photos of the harrasser. Let the Police FILE A REPORT. To the woman who was harrassed, did you get a photo of them? Please post what happened to you. Your privacy was VIOLATED by these people, who have a history of legal problems."

"Kndly email me the specific details (date, time, where, description of person "harrased" and of KK volunteers involved) and contact information for witnesses to this 'recent' reported occurance. I'm not interested in what happened a year ago -only this most 'recent" reported event described in the post.. Forward the name(s) of the individuals who witnessed what was described. I will most definitely forward the info to the Mayor's Alliance. "Witnesses" need to provide specifics and be willing to be contacted by the MA. Alternatively, "witness(e)s" may contact the Mayor's Alliance directly. If this altercation did occur as described, there should be no reason why a "witness(es) would be reluctant to contact the the Mayor's Alliance. If "witness(es") opt to contact the MA directly, do so. I will reach out to MA to make sure that the complaint was indeed filed. If no "witness(es)" come forward, I will report a followup on Craigslist saying that what was described was not verified. I cannot imagine why someone would not be willing to follow-up with MA if they thought this occurance was serious enough to post the details on CL. thanks."
