At this time, we would like to highlight one of the ways we contribute to our community.

We were in urgent need of medicine after exhausting our supplies to help someone save their cat from FIP. A local resident, referred to as Saint Francis, demonstrated exceptional kindness by donating a full bottle of the medicine we required.

As a result of Saint Francis's generosity, we were able to save not only the initial cat but also our own, and we have since assisted two more individuals whose pets were suffering from the same deadly disease, FIP.

Our organization operates on the principles of paying it forward and paying it back, ensuring that every donation, whether financial, in-kind, or food, is utilized to support our community and provide aid to those in dire need of assistance for their pets.

We would like to express our gratitude to Saint Francis and the generous donors who have contributed almost $1000 in the past few days.

Your support has made a tangible difference in our community, enabling us to provide assistance to those in need and save precious lives.

From those you have helped, we offer our heartfelt thanks and blessings.

Out newest residents aare confused…. They are huffing and puffing like a big old wolf 😹.

Big steps already. They still huff when we reach for them but no longer try to run. Still eating like crazy. Feeding them every 4 hours trying to get them a kitten belly. Way too skinny right now for comfort.

Incoming kittens. Spicy, no known mother and Thankfully not in bad shape. Old enough we will have to completely vet them before we can get them in one or our partners adoption programs.

If you can donate, we would appreciate it and so would these adorable babies. We are still not quite on solid ground after a few months of very high veterinary bills draining out bank account.

You can donate on our page or furandpurr.org

This structure's condition is quite dire, isn't it? It is our next project. We are preparing an incoming winter shelter for feral cats that prefer to avoid human contact.

The shelter will be fully renovated, including insulation, sheathing, and repairs, as well as the addition of lofts on both ends, and a thorough cleaning.

Despite its current state, the structure has excellent underlying bones. A solid cement foundation is in place, the cement floor is in great condition, the rough cut true 2x4’s are not only in good shape but made of walnut, and the roof is sound and leak-free.

Already got a start on their new loft ( as well as adding structural support to the roof )

Although new siding will be required, this can be addressed next summer. We wish ourselves the best of luck. šŸ€

2 severely malnourished kittens and two beautiful calico mothers. Both are also young 9-10 months old. Kittens are going to need good food and lots of it to recover but but said otherwise healthy.

Very nice retired vet trying to do his best. Will drop off a bunch of dry food for him so he does not have to ration

Please follow for updates and to help us continue our work. In a town of 2,500 we have rescued almost 1,100 cats in 9 years.
