🚨 THREE TINY BABIES NEEDED US TONIGHT 🍼🐾

We received a call from a Good Samaritan who found three tiny kittens in their backyard. Their mother hasn’t been seen in over two days, and at only about 4 weeks old, these babies were hungry and desperately in need of help. 💔

Thankfully, one of our incredible fosters stepped up and immediately took them in. They are now safe, warm, and being bottle-fed — something they desperately needed after going so long without their mama. 🍼❤️

But taking in emergency cases like these comes with a cost.

Between kitten formula, food, supplies, vet exams, vaccines, deworming, testing, and eventually spay/neuter, caring for three little lives adds up quickly.

🙏 We are asking for your help.

Every donation — whether it’s $5, $10, $20 or more — helps us say YES when the next call comes in.

These babies didn’t choose to be born outside. Tonight, they’re no longer alone, hungry, or wondering when their next meal will come. 💕

Please consider donating toward their care, and share this post to help us reach more people. Even if you are unable to donate we are accepting bottles and cans through our bottle drive ♻️

🐾 Three tiny lives are counting on us — and we couldn’t do this without you.

🐾 BREENA & ZIGGY — A BOND BUILT ON TRUST, PATIENCE & LOVE 🐾

Some cats just need a little more time to believe that people can be trusted. And sometimes, having another cat beside them makes all the difference. ❤️

Ziggy is about 8 years old, and when one of our volunteers first started here, he was pretty distant and not particularly interested in people. But Ziggy has had an incredible transformation. 🥹

He absolutely adored Calvin, and he loves Breena. The two have been considered bonded for years and are often found sleeping together. We think losing Calvin may have been a turning point for Ziggy. Add in a good haircut, lots of love from volunteers, and plenty of time — and Ziggy has done a complete 180. ❤️

When he’s relaxing, Ziggy still likes to have his personal space. But lately, he’ll hop down, come over, and start headbutting anything in sight! 😂 Clearly, Calvin rubbed off on him. He has become incredibly affectionate and has even been friendly with other new housemates besides Breena.

And then there’s Breena. 💕 She’s around 5 years old but is still absolutely kitten-sized. She’s basically half cat, half monkey — always ready to play, jump, climb, and get into something. 😹

Natalie is her favorite and spends lots of time with her. Breena will even squeal at you through the door, but she’s still very timid and shy. Recently, more volunteers have been able to get in a few pets, and we’re not sure she ever really knew what it felt like to receive that kind of affection before. 🥹

Breena may always prefer Ziggy, but that’s okay. Ziggy seems to do well with other friendly cats, and we truly believe Ziggy is teaching Breena that it’s okay to trust.

Their future family will need to understand that these two may not walk into a new home and immediately act like they’ve lived there forever. They need someone who will give them time, patience, and the freedom to come to them when they’re ready.

No forcing. No expectations. Just a safe home, some love, and the opportunity to build trust at their own pace. 🏡❤️

And honestly, watching Ziggy become more affectionate and seeing Breena slowly learn from him has been pretty special.

Aside from Ziggy being a little on the chunky side 😂 and Breena apparently deciding that she’s done growing, both are in great health.

They’ve already found comfort in each other. Now we’re hoping they can find someone who will give them the time and patience they deserve. 💙🐾

Could you be the person who lets Breena and Ziggy come to you?

Please share their story. Their forever home is out there. 🏡✨

💗 Meet Gigi — A Sweet Senior Girl Looking for Her Forever Home 🐾

Gigi is a beautiful 10-year-old sweetheart who is ready for a loving home where she can spend her golden years being spoiled. 🥰

Gigi loves tummy rubs, being gently combed, and simply being close to her people. She is the kind of girl who reminds you that senior cats have so much love left to give. ❤️

Gigi’s story is a little bittersweet. Her previous owner had passed away. She has experienced a lot of change, and now we want nothing more than to give her the stability and forever family she deserves. 🏡💕

Gigi is currently on a prescription Thyroid Care y/d dry diet and is doing well. Her next bloodwork check-up is scheduled for January.

✨ If you have room in your heart for a sweet senior girl who loves affection, tummy rubs, and a good combing session, Gigi may be your perfect match. ✨

Please share Gigi’s story so we can help her find the loving forever home she has been waiting for. 💗🐱

💗 WONDER GIRL IS STILL WAITING… 💗

We truly don’t understand how this beautiful girl is still waiting for her forever home. 🥺

Wonder Girl has been patiently watching other cats find their families while she waits for someone to finally see what we see in her. She deserves to be someone’s first choice, not the cat who keeps getting overlooked. 💔

She’s sweet, beautiful, and ready to leave rescue life behind for good. All she needs is someone willing to give her a chance and let her become part of their family. 🏡💕

✨ Wonder Girl’s forever family is out there. We just need to help them find each other.

Please share her post. You never know who might be scrolling past her today and thinking, “That’s my girl.” 🥹💗

🐾 Adopt Wonder Girl. Give this girl her happily ever after. 👑💞

We have SO many kittens, but don’t forget about our lovely adult cats!

💔 SINCE MAY. That’s how long Kris has been waiting. 💔

Spring came and went. Summer is almost over. And somehow, our beautiful Kris is still waiting for someone to choose her. 🥺

Kris came to us as a mama, and she did her job beautifully. Her babies grew up, found their families, and went off to their forever homes.

But their mama was left behind. 💔

And we truly don’t understand why.

Kris is a gorgeous young girl with one of the most unique coats — a beautiful mix of colors and markings that makes her completely one of a kind. But as pretty as she is, her personality is even sweeter. ❤️

She loves being near her people, will happily curl up in your lap while you work, enjoys playing with her wand toys, and is mostly a mellow girl who just wants companionship and a place to finally call her own.

For months, Kris has watched other cats get adopted.

Now we want it to be her turn. 🏡🐾

Please help us find the person who has been missing Kris all along. Even if you can’t adopt, a share could be the reason her forever family finally sees her.

😈 LIL’ MAMA’S BEEN RESERVED… BUT HER LITTLE MONSTERS ARE STILL ON THE LOOSE! 😺🏡

Great news — Lil’ Mama has been reserved for adoption! 🎉❤️ Now it’s time to find forever homes for her adorable little monsters, and trust us… this crew is FULL of personality. 🐾

😈 Salisbury — Mr. Outgoing AND Mr. Troublemaker. 🙃 He’s confident, curious, and probably already plotting his next kitten crime.

🎩 Sulimon — A little more distinguished in his kitten shenanigans. He causes trouble with class, which only adds to his very prestigious title of “Most Handsome Kitten of the Year.” 😻🫶

🐈‍⬛ Sabrina — The shy sweetheart of the bunch. 💖 She’s more reserved and would do best adopted with one of her siblings or into a home with an outgoing young cat or kitten who can show her the ropes and help her confidence blossom.

💕 Sylvia & Solidad — Two playful little beauties who are every bit as sweet, silly, and fun as those adorable faces suggest. ❤️‍🔥

They’ve got the fuzzy faces.
They’ve got the kitten chaos.
They’ve got the personalities.

All they’re missing is YOU. 🏡🐾

Who could use a little more cuteness, laughter, and kitten mischief in their life? Better yet… who has room for TWO? 👀😺😺
