Last night I was incredibly sad, and it followed into this morning. Angel
had bit her foster mom very badly, broke skin, almost down to bone. We
cannot adopt her out like that. Perhaps that is why her owners surrendered
her. She is so beautiful. It is so sad. I emailed the shelter, who explained...
This isn't a particular cat, but more a request that goes beyond what all the folks listed as what they would do to help a rescue. Here are some more ideas, things I find especially that my group (ie ME) needs help with.
Posting of kitties descriptions and photos.We use...
I took the resolution text from the HSUS' Spay Day USA event planning guide and sent it to my city council. The mayor will present the proclamation to our rescue at the City Council Meeting on February 5, and then allow us a few minutes to speak. I haven't figured out yet what to say, but I'm...
I'm in a tough situation and I'm looking for some advice. Many of you know that I rescue and that last summer I added to my clan. I had a rescue that I just couldn't let go. I love her dearly. I tried really hard to find the perfect adopter for her, but I couldn't, so I kept her. LOL. The...
We're in the midst of a panleuk outbreak with rescue this week. We've lost 14 kittens, and still have another 8 that are potentially sick as well.
You know how sometimes it seems like the stars and moon and sun all align and not in a good way? Yeah that's what happened to us.

Three of Hope's babies have been given to a surrogate mom to see how they do. I swear if any of these kitties make it, it will be a miracle. The smallest kitten is weighing in at UNDER 3oz, and is at least 10 days old. No I'm NOT kidding, or crazy. 2 7/8 oz. that's just nuts. The biggest of the...
Hope came to us very recently, and didn't stay very long. She left behind
sadness, joy, determination, and the understanding that sometimes, the
hardest decision is the right one.
Hope was nothing special to look at; a medium hair black petite female,
somewhere between 1 and 2 years of age. She...
I have been thinking about you two a lot lately.... remember it was me who had the friend in your semi neck of the woods who needed her rescued and then you ended up keeping her LOL.
Recently, I rescued a kitty who is her twin... cagney is an orange tabby girl who is poly front and back. she...
Does anyone have any experience with feline food poisoning?
I have a couple of questions:
a) what kind of a time frame are you looking at for food poisoning from ingestion to symptoms? b) could the food have been bad right out of the can?
c) what does onset look like?
d) does food poisoning...
This is Tawny and Toby - sibling bottle babies I rescued with 2 of their other siblings back in October. Both were adopted the day after this picture was taken.
This is 5150 (a foster I've had since August) and Tawny playing on the new cat tree Santa brought them for Christmas.
This is Tianna...
We recently rescued an abused momma cat and her baby (well she's not a baby anymore, but it's her daughter). Momma has bleeding behind the eye and was in obvious pain for a couple of weeks. Vet found nothing broken, and lab work revealed no issues. After a couple of weeks, momma is no longer in...
Myself, along with several of the women I do rescue work with have decided to go off and start our own rescue due to some differences with the current rescue we are with. We are working on all the nuts and bolts - have filed to incorporate, are awaiting the certified copy so that we can file for...
We're starting a new rescue and I'm in charge of the website. Want lots of cute kitty pics. If you have any you don't mind sharing, please email them to me at [email protected]
I only have shots of mine all over there now LOL.
Does anyone here feed kitties raw? How hard is it - really? I've been looking at some recipes online and it seems like a ton of work. I can't just toss some chicken in the dish and be like "here you go guys, live it up" LOL.
Lucy Lawless crossed the Rainbow Bridge this morning with help from the vet. She had been sick since Friday, and it turns out she had FIP.
Honey I'm sorry I wasn't there with you when you passed, and I'm sorry the end of your short life was full of pain. But please know that you were loved, and...
So I've got some new fosters that moved in before my last remaining fosters moved out. These guys are about 6 weeks old, a littler of 6, and I've got 2 other fosters + my 3. Okay so here's my question... the babies are confined to a cage during the day while I'm at work until I feel that I can...
Any suggestions on dealing with food aggression? I am very short term fostering a found stray who turned out be an adoptee from a shelter and he has a tattoo. The rescue has tracked down the owner and kitty has been missing for about a year. He will be picking kitty up tomorrow. In the mean...
