๐Ÿšจ IMMEDIATE FOSTER NEEDED FOR DUSTY ๐Ÿšจ

Meet Dusty, a sweet and gentle 1-year-old boy who was cruelly dumped and left to fend for himself.

Thankfully, he's now safe in our care, but what he truly needs is a loving home where he can decompress, feel secure, and finally learn what it means to be cherished.

Dusty is neutered, vaccinated, and ready for his next chapter. He has been through so much already, and we don't want him spending any longer in a shelter environment than necessary. He deserves a soft bed, a sunny window, and someone to show him that not all humans let you down.

๐Ÿก You can FOSTER him. โค๏ธ You can ADOPT him. ๐Ÿพ Or you can choose our Foster-to-Adopt program to make sure he's the perfect fit for your family before making a lifelong commitment.

Astoria Cat Rescue provides all supplies and medical care for foster homes โ€” you simply provide the love.

Please help us give Dusty the second chance he deserves. If you are interested in fostering or adopting, send us a DM today.

๐Ÿ“Located in Astoria, Queens ๐Ÿฑ Please share to help Dusty find his forever person.

Apply to adopt Bailey. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿˆ

Bailey has officially discovered true love... and it comes on a stick. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿญ๐Ÿพ

One lick was all it took and Bailey was completely smitten! From the top of the cat tree, this sweet little goofball carefully reached out with those tiny paws and enjoyed every last taste of her special treat. Watching cats like Bailey enjoy the simple joys of safety, love, and a full belly reminds us why rescue matters so much. Not long ago, many of our cats were struggling to survive outside.

Today, they're spoiled, cherished, and living the life every cat deserves. ๐Ÿฉท
Every rescue cat has a story, and thanks to your support, Bailey's story is filled with comfort, treats, and happiness. ๐Ÿฑโœจ

To adopt Bailey please visit www.astoriacatrescue.com and fill out an adoption application. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ’” EMERGENCY RESCUE FUNDRAISER: A MOM, A DAD, AND FOUR BABIES ARE FIGHTING TO SURVIVE OUTSIDE ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿšจ

Hidden behind buildings, sleeping under bushes, trying to stay alive one day at a time, is a tiny family that should never have to live this way. A devoted momma cat, a protective pappa cat, and their four fragile babies, only about one month old.

Every night they sleep outside wondering if they will make it to morning. Every day brings new dangers: speeding cars, predators, cruel people, sickness, starvation, and the brutal reality that one tragedy could wipe out this entire family in an instant.

The kittens are still babies. They should be curled up in a warm bed, safe in a loving home. Instead, they are growing up in fear, exposed to the elements, relying on their exhausted mother to somehow keep them alive.

And momma is trying. She's doing everything she can to protect her babies, but love alone cannot shield them from the dangers of life on the streets.

We know what happens to so many kittens born outside. They disappear. They get sick. They are injured. Many never make it to adulthood.
We are stepping in to save this entire family before it's too late, but rescuing six cats at once is a huge financial burden for our small volunteer-run rescue. They will all need veterinary care, testing, vaccinations, food, supplies, foster care, and spay/neuter surgeries.

Right now, we are already struggling under overwhelming medical debt from the many cats already in our care, but how do you walk away from four innocent babies and their parents when you know they need help?

You don't. You fight for them BUT we can't do it without your support.๐Ÿ’”

Please don't scroll past them.

Please don't assume someone else will help.

You may be the reason these kittens never have to spend another night outside.Momma. ๐Ÿพ Pappa. ๐Ÿพ Four tiny babies๐Ÿผ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿพ .Six lives depending on the kindness of strangers. Please help us bring them to safety.

UPDATE: GRACIE โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿˆ

Watching Gracie play and learn how to walk with one less paw has been one of the most emotional and inspiring journeys for us. ๐Ÿ’• Every tiny step she takes reminds us just how strong, brave, and resilient she truly is. Despite everything sheโ€™s been through, Gracie still chooses love, playtime, and happiness every single day. She is adjusting more and more each day and proving that disabilities do not define a catโ€™s spirit or ability to live a beautiful life. We are so proud of our little warrior girl.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Gracieโ€™s journey, shared her story, donated toward her surgery, and kept her in your prayers. Watching her play today filled our hearts with hope. ๐Ÿพ Please continue to help us rescue cats and give them a second chance at life.

Fostering saves lives. ๐Ÿพ Every foster home gives a rescued cat a safe place to heal, grow, and finally feel loved. Even fostering for just a few weeks can make the difference between life and death for a cat in need. Our rescue is overwhelmed with kittens, friendly strays, and cats recovering from medical care โ€” and we desperately need more fosters to step up.

You provide the love, we provide the supplies and 24/7 support. ๐Ÿ’• If youโ€™ve ever thought about fostering, now is the time. Apply today at www.astoriacatrescue.com

๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒก๏ธ HEATWAVE WARNING FOR CAT OWNERS ๐ŸŒก๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Cats can suffer from heatstroke faster than many people realize โ€” especially kittens, senior cats, overweight cats, and outdoor/community cats. During extreme heat, itโ€™s so important to keep your cats hydrated, cool, and safe indoors whenever possible. Always provide multiple bowls of fresh water, shaded areas, airflow, fans or AC, and NEVER leave a cat in a hot car, garage, or enclosed room. Even a few minutes can become deadly.๐Ÿ’”

Please watch closely for signs of overheating such as panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, hot ears, lethargy, or collapse. Heatstroke is a medical emergency and requires immediate veterinary care. Community cats need help too โ€” leaving fresh water and shaded shelters outside can save lives during dangerous temperatures. โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿพ

Please share this educational post to help spread awareness and protect cats during a heatwave. A little extra care can truly save a life. ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿฑ

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ’” EMERGENCY FOR ROME ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿšจ

We are absolutely heartbroken writing this.
This is Rome. A sweet, loving little boy we rescued months ago who just turned 1 year old this monthโ€ฆ and instead of celebrating his first birthday like every kitten deserves, Rome needs medical care.๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿพ
Over the last few weeks, Rome began developing severe skin issues. He scratches himself until his skin literally opens into painful wounds. Right now Rome has TWO large open wounds on his back.

This weekend alone we rushed Rome to VEG Animal Hospital TWICE back-to-back in just 2 days. The first night we stayed there all night into the early morning trying to help him, only to end up back there again the very next day because he removed his cone & his bandages. Watching him suffer while still trying to purr, love us, play and rub against us completely shattered us emotionally.

Now Rome urgently needs advanced medical care. He will be transferred to AMC Hospital in Manhattan where he may need to stay for several days. He will need specialists including an internist and dermatologist to figure out what is causing this devastating skin disorder and hopefully create a treatment plan that can SAVE HIS LIFE. We are praying for answers. We are praying for a cure. ๐Ÿ™

To know Rome is to absolutely fall in love with him. He is one of the sweetest boys you could ever meet. Gentle. Affectionate. Playful. Full of life. He adores humans and other cats and still wants to cuddle and play despite everything he is going through. He deserves a chance to live. He deserves a chance to heal. While at the hospital he wanted to eat churo and play a baby who still has so much love and life left in him. We simply cannot give up on Rome. We will not give up on him.
But we desperately need help. Rescues like this emotionally break us. How do you look into Romeโ€™s eyes and walk away from him? How do you tell him he doesnโ€™t deserve a chance because treatment costs too much?๐Ÿ’”

Pleaseโ€ฆ help us save Rome. Please donate if you can and share his story. Thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿˆ
