Here to the Rescue

Here to the Rescue We are a small charitable organization run by volunteers who assisted free-roaming felines through TNR in 2016-2025.

Now we serve the cats who could not be returned due to medical concerns through a sanctuary setting.

We think it's time to share some "happy heartbreak." ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ’”๐ŸŽ‰

When we first started, we never thought we would have adoptable cats waiting years for their forever homes. Over those years, they truly become part of our family. We share the joy, frustration, medical support, laughs, and tears. But that's exactly what this journey has turned into. As if saying goodbye isn't hard enough, now you're saying goodbye to someone you've spent years with. It's hard, and it emotionally eats away at your heart.

When a long-term cat finally goes home, it is an absolute blessing, but it brings so much more. There is the constant worry: What will they be like once they settle in? Will it work out? You worry they will be returned, get lost, pass away, or be given away. You are left never truly knowing if they will be okay for the rest of their lives.

Lately, some of our quirky cats have been getting adopted, which is AMAZING! We don't post about it right away until we know they have found the perfect fit. Today, this post is to share that Steve found his!

Steve was adopted in May. He now has his very own boy whom he sleeps with and wakes up with in the morning. He is thoroughly enjoying his outside timeโ€”and trying to figure out how to get down from taller trees! ๐Ÿ˜† He is also getting along beautifully with the resident dogs and cats. It truly is a perfect home.

Garage cats have been exercising their wild side the past few weeks as the weeds grew a bit thick in the catio.

๐Ÿชฟ๐Ÿชฟ๐ŸพGrandpa Goose Update๐Ÿพ๐Ÿชฟ๐Ÿชฟ

๐ŸชฟGoose came to us as a retired feral colony cat in 2023. We were closed to intake, but Goose was the exact kind of cat we would welcome into our sanctuary program. He was old, missing almost all of his teeth, blind in one eye and hazy in the other, and deaf! Goose was perfect.

๐Ÿชฟโ€‹Goose was a crabby boy, and we didn't blame himโ€”he spent his whole life having to watch his back.

๐Ÿชฟโ€‹After two years with us, we were finally able to touch his back when he wasn't looking. That turned into butt rubs, and then full-body pets! We fell hard for Goose! ๐Ÿ’œ

๐Ÿชฟโ€‹Goose had an opportunity to be adopted, but things just didn't work out. From that experience, though, we found out he had diabetes. Goose is not a fan of his oral medication but sure doesn't hold a grudge. His glucose numbers have been great and has a good appetite. He can sleep through a tornado and a deep clean of the room. But handles it well when he wakes. To share a secret with you, he is one of our all-time favorites here!

๐Ÿชฟโ€‹Goose has come a long way. He gives headbutts and likes neck scratches. He LOVES the company of other cats, and the kittens seem to always love his "grandpa aura."
โ€‹Goose is a tough boy, and since he has come aroundโ€”making it easier to care for his needsโ€”we continue to fight for him to have the best, most cozy life he can for the remainder of his days. He is considered a sanctuary feline and is not up for adoption; we think a move would be too stressful at this point.

๐Ÿชฟโ€‹He has an AMAZING sponsor who donates one-third towards his costly medication (even with the great discounts we receive at the vet clinic). Thank you, Barbara Wall, for being Goose's guardian angel!
