UPDATE: THIS CAT HAS BEEN ADOPTED 💜

Meet Luna. The young feline was involved in an accident that would have resulted in her death.
Luna arrived at the shelter paralyzed from the waist down with an open spinal wound. They told us, "Her hind legs and tail were immobile and cold, but she could still feel them—our hearts were breaking. Luna's eyes were full of pain and exhaustion. Luna couldn't defecate on her own and was on the verge of euthanasia, but we decided to do everything we could to save her."

The medical team fitted the sweet cat with a stabilizing brace and started her on pain medication and antibiotics.

Luna will need physiotherapy and electrotherapy to help contract her muscles and prevent atrophy. This adorable feline is a fighter and refuses to give up.

She has already started to sit up on her own and is moving her tail. The staff also reported that she can use the bathroom on her own. Previously, they were having to manually empty her bladder.

Pets receiving critical care facilitated by an Emergency Animal Medical grant may not be eligible for adoption until they have completed their course of treatment. If you would like to inquire about adoption of a specific animal, we strongly encourage you to visit the shelter’s specific website first as that is often the most up to date place to learn about available pets and review the adoption policies and process.

We already had three rescue kitties at home from a local rescue that was awesome, but they had recently been forced to disband. We'd always hoped to get another kitty or two through them, but had not been able to before they had to close.

The former director of the rescue was driving home one day in a rural area when a little ball of fluff ran across the road in front of her. After stopping, a tiny little girl came running to her. That little kitty had no idea she'd just hit the lottery!

After lots of food, love, and good medical care, she was posted for adoption! My husband and I were having dinner when we first saw her picture. All he said was "She's a cutie!", and that was it. We were discussing names before dinner was over and had contacted our new baby's rescuing angel to let her know she was wanted!

We brought her home for the first time just after Thanksgiving, and our three previous rescues became instant big sisters.

She's still a tiny little thing and always will be, but she's healthy, and the joy she has in playing, loving and just being warm, safe, loved, and content rolls off of her like a tidal wave! The odds of her finding her way across that lonely rural road in front of her wonderful rescuer's car were astronomical. But boy did we all hit the jackpot when she did!

Our family is now complete, and we can't wait to spend as many years as possible spoiling her and her big sisters rotten!

Bo came into our lives through the living room window in February 2012. We had all just learned the term "polar vortex" and were in the middle of one when our two cats began reacting to another cat outside the living room window.

We live in the woods so wildlife is plentiful, but I had no chance to even see much less catch the other cat. I began leaving the garage door open just a bit with some food and a bed.

My husband, on the other hand, just removed the screen, opened the window, and reached out his hand. Bo leapt into his arms and into our lives without a moment's hesitation.

She was so small I thought she was a kitten and so affectionate that I thought she must belong to someone already. But when we took her to the vet the next morning, she was unchipped, un-spayed, flea-ridden, and malnourished, so I decided she was fair game. She was about two years old but extremely small for her age.

Bo is crazy affectionate and extremely attached to me despite the fact that my husband is her literal rescuer. She is within arm's reach of me at all times and prefers to be physically in my arms if possible, but she's got a bed next to my keyboard and she will go straight to it and lie down if I make it clear that I need to work.

Her favorite position is to drape herself across my torso, resting her head on my shoulder and wrapping her arms around my neck and arms.

I've had cats my whole life, but Bo is extremely special. She's as affectionate and loving as I've ever seen and every day I'm grateful to the polar vortex for bringing her into our lives.

It was January, just a couple months after moving into this apartment, when my nearly 19 year old kitty Sebastian suddenly passed with no warning. As heartbreaking as it was, I still had my other 12 year old cat.

I was one of the residents who was helping feed some strays in the area, and one cat started showing up on a regular basis for food and some loving.

I couldn't take him in at the time because we also had a dog and had a two-pet limit. Technically, I was over with my two cats, but they always hid. This sweet male cat, though, kept coming back and trying to meet my other female kitty, Abbey.

Later that May, we ended up moving into a larger apartment. This was when I also learned how this male kitty was abandoned by his family. I saw him while moving over to our place, so I scooped him up and took him home to our other place and kept him on my porch for a week. That was it; I decided he was staying!

I took him to the vet to make sure he was fixed and had his shots. He now had his furever home, although little did I know that he was rescuing me twice over! He helped mend my broken heart from losing Sebastian, and then later on that August, Abbey also suddenly got ill and didn't make it. I named him Kit-Kat at first, but it turned into Kitters.

He is such a fun and loving cat. He brought life back into my home and to me. He helped with everything I struggled through that first year, and continues to help to this day. So while I rescued him from being homeless, he rescued me right back with his love, purrs, head bonks, and nose licks. He's my furever feline friend.

It had been a year since losing our beloved Mensa cat Pike when we received an email from the Nevada Humane Society about a "young senior cat" who needed a home. Tobey had been in the shelter for over four months and was not coping.

His original mom had been admitted into an assisted living facility and could only take one cat. In one fell swoop, he lost his mom, his brother, his home and everything he knew and was traumatized being away from them. He had begun hissing, spitting, and biting and was placed in quarantine for a month.

After that, he would let female staff handle him but no male staff. He would get sick if he heard other cats fighting in other rooms, so he had to be kept separately. I went down to the shelter (I'm a volunteer) and met Tobey, and he hissed and swatted at me, as well. Undeterred, I spent an hour with him that day and began socializing him and gaining his trust.

Iris was born under an abandoned trailer in Stuarts Draft, Virginia in the late summer. The trailer was removed, leaving no shelter.

Her feral mother was killed by some kids who shot her with BBs. A kind soul found Iris and her brother, only about 3 weeks old, and brought them to the local vet. Both suffered from sunburn. Iris's brother seemed fine, but he died overnight.

Iris had badly infected eyes. The vet had to remove one eye; she saved the other, but there was a large scar on the cornea.

She was too young to be adopted, so she spent her time riding on a vet tech's shoulder while they did their rounds. They named her Iris.

When she was old enough, the vet asked my wife and me to adopt her. The vet was worried no one would want her because she was almost blind. Being suckers, my wife and I adopted her.

After we got home, she loved to ride on my shoulder and chirp. After she grew too big to ride on my shoulder, she wanted me to hold her in my arms.

She is now over 3 years old and rarely chirps. She can see well enough to get around, and has an active life and kitty friends. Her favorite place to sleep is still in my arms, and she craves attention.

My wife says she is spoiled, but I don't care!

I've had cats my entire life, until a year ago when my 19 year old rescue, Daisy, moved on to her next life. With a child, a dog, and going back to work full-time, I thought I'd be cat-free for a while.

That was until rodents started taking over my condo. I set traps to no avail. I finally decided to go the predator route and started searching Craigslist for a cat. There was only one listed; his family was moving and couldn't take him.

When I met Kobi, it wasn't quite love at first sight, as he was so attached to his first family, and moving into a new home with a resident dog was not to his liking! Annie really wanted to play with him (she is a gentle old border collie mix), but he wanted none of that.

It had been a long time since I'd had a young cat, so the antics of a one-and-a-half year old - getting into everything, being on the counter, running a parkour course using my bedroom furniture at 3 a.m. - really took some getting used to!

But soon, Kobi and Annie settled into their respective territories, and Kobi comes running to curl up on my lap whenever I sit down. He also sleeps with me at night. A recent bout of illness had me in bed for a couple of days, and he was my faithful companion every minute, sleeping - or attacking my feet.

Now that the New Year has me resolved to hit the gym every morning, he wakes me up at 4:04 a.m. to make sure I get there on time! I amuse my friends with stories and pictures of his antics, and can't imagine life without him. Oh - and no more mice!

My husband had been wanting a dog for a long time. I finally agreed, but with one condition: we would go to the shelter instead of a breeder. With so many dogs in need, I felt we should give one a good home. So, we drove to the local shelter, just to look, I insisted. I also made it clear that I didn’t want a puppy but an older dog.

There weren't many dogs to choose from, maybe about eight. As I walked up and down the rows of cages, I noticed the saddest, most frightened little black and white dog I had ever seen. He looked at me, and I felt a pang in my chest. He was standing at the back of his cage, pressed against the wall.

Determined to meet him, I stood guard by his cage while my husband fetched a shelter worker. When the dog was brought into the room, he just stood there trembling, all 20 pounds of him. He gave us each a tentative lick, but mostly, he was terrified.

The shelter workers couldn't provide much of his background, only that he came from a kill shelter. I knew right then that we had to help him overcome his fears. We took him home and soon realized there was something seriously wrong with him. He wound up having pneumonia and had to stay at the shelter to be treated. The shelter was 40 minutes away from us, but we drove there about 3-4 times a week so he wouldn’t forget us or feel abandoned all over again.

A month later he was able to come home. It was the best day ever. He played with his very first toy which was bittersweet. He was already 8 months old and never saw a toy. He has about 25+ now and knows all their names.

It’s been 3 1/2 years and a little work every day. He’s overcome so many fears, has a huge vocabulary, and can do many tricks! He’s 70 pounds now and still loves to “sit” in my lap. (He used to do that when we visited him at the shelter for the month he was sick). He adores my husband and waits by the door for him to come home! He made our house a home!

A sweet and loving feline named Santo was found near death on the streets of Pennsylvania. Animal rescuers were looking for feral cats for their TNR program when they spotted the emaciated cat with a disfigured face. He was clearly in pain and needed emergency surgery.

“He was very skinny when we found him so we didn’t know how long it had been since he had eaten.” He wouldn’t have survived much longer on the streets...

Santo was rushed to a local veterinary clinic for emergency surgery to repair the numerous broken bones in his face and jaw.

The rescue's first concern was for Santo and once he was getting the medical care he needed, they reached out to Greater Good Charities' Emergency Animal Medical Fund to help cover the costly surgery and ongoing care.

Emergency Animal Medical Fund was started to provide grants to animal shelters and rescues to cover the costs of medical care of homeless pets to help save lives. With your support, we are able to help severely injured cats like Santo and give them the second chance they deserve.

Santo has endured so much pain, but he doesn't let his past impact his sweet personality. He's in good hands now and his caretakers shared, "He is a gentle soul that loves attention and a sunny spot."

UPDATE: THIS CAT HAS BEEN ADOPTED 💜

Meet Winky. The 4-month-old kitten was born on the streets of Kentucky to a feral momma cat and lived in a cat community. The little feline was struggling to survive due to several health issues. She was discovered one day by a dedicated caregiver who feeds and cares for the stray cats.
Winky was unsure of humans and avoided being trapped for weeks. When she could no longer run due to her health declining, the caregiver picked her up and contacted Lawrence County Humane Society for help.

The shelter rushed the sick kitten to the local veterinary hospital. Winky arrived with a severe upper respiratory infection, dehydrated, and suffering from malnutrition. These issues were addressed first and then they inspected her infected eye.

The eye is beyond saving and the only option is to remove it.

The shelter reached out to Greater Good Charities' Emergency Animal Medical fund to help with Winky's medical bills. The fund helps save the lives of homeless pets with grants to cover medical expenses. These life-saving grants wouldn't be possible without your support.

Winky has a bright future ahead of her once she receives eye enucleation surgery. Will you help her start her journey towards healing and growth?

"There is no doubt that this little kitten would not have survived in the colony without the immediate medical intervention we were able to provide her. However, we continue to monitor her recovery and will ensure she is fully vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and socialized prior to finalizing her adoption into a loving, forever home," shared the shelter.
