Update on my 3 a.m. brother and sister (not really much of an update, though) [View all]

They were taken to Child Haven with Social Services and from there they check kids out and try to contact the family...anyway, that's a generic answer as to what happens in cases like this, because I was told that because of confidentiality issues, they can't release any information other than to the family. So, basically, I don't know anything.

However, the good thing about being a crazy cat person is that one of my colonies is on county land, and I have worked with people in different county departments on issues, and initially had to get county approval to set up a feeding site there. Anyway, contacted a couple and explained that I just want to make sure they're going to be ok, so they said they'd try to find out what they could without getting into trouble. So hopefully I will find out that way, and if they are still with the county then I will work to get them some Christmas presents. Anyway, not knowing is killing me. Still waiting to hear from them, so I'll update when I do.

I didn't mention in my OP that this is in Las Vegas...no city at 3 a.m. is safe for kids that age, and I think Vegas especially. Thanks.
