Mandy is just about as cute as they come. 😂 She’s so sweet and playful, and she loves to tumble around and flip herself over, even right out of the cage if I didn’t catch her haha. Her and her sister Mallory are still available for adoption! 🥰🩷

Can anyone please send us food from our Amazon or Chewy wishlists? We are down to our last case, and we don’t get enough donations to cover food. This month we got $457 from our social media post donations (this is a typical amount though, or less), which doesn’t even put a dent in our monthly vet bills and costs. We are slowly running out of funds for the kittens that we rescue, especially if we have to buy food all the time too. If you’re able to, please help. 🩷

We always super appreciate any donation we get, it’s literally how we can keep going, and right now we are really struggling. I need to severely cut back on the amount of cats that I rescue because I just can’t afford it when we don’t get enough donations, and adoptions are so slow. My living situation and personal life are drastically changing suddenly, so I don’t even have my own money to spend on taking care of the kittens anymore, which is what I’ve been doing for the past 10 years…if we didn’t have enough in donations, I would just cover it myself. But I can’t do that anymore unfortunately.

If you’re able to, you can donate directly on our social media posts, or through our Linktree links. Social media post donations are sent to us at the end of every month. Venmo/PayPal/Zelle are sent immediately. 🩷🥰🐱
Thank you so much🩷

Please like, comment (even if it’s gibberish 😬), and share to help our algorithm. 🩷

We also have many kittens and cats still looking for homes. We are having adoption events on Saturday Oct 3, Sunday Oct 11, and Sunday Oct 18th this month. 🩷🥰🐱 Please share!

Cane is such a cuddly and sweet boy. 🥰 He’s a lap cat cuddler, will sleep on top of you at night, and make biscuits on anything. He loves love. 💕 He is FIV+, but very sweet with other cats and dogs too.

These are sisters. 😬 Born 4 months apart, from the same two cats in someone’s neighborhood. The homeowners have been trying to catch the mom for MONTHS and the cat just won’t go in a trap, or they catch a cat who’s already been fixed, or they catch an opossum, etc. Just never works out, there are so many stray cats and wildlife there. 🩷😬 Then once the second litter was born, they tried trapping mom using the babies as bait, mom still wouldn’t go in and then immediately moved the babies. 😪 We didn’t know where they went, so they could no longer trap mom until we knew where the babies were, and everything was put on hold. Fast forward 5 weeks and the 6 kittens started appearing (thankfully all 6 survived). At 6 weeks old they were able to catch 4 of the kittens. The other 2 are still out there with mom, and once we get the last two babies, we will go full-out to catch mom this time. Last time it was just really unfortunate timing. The trapper who was going to help, had a death in the family and could no longer come (understandably 🩷). This time we will get it done, as cute as they are, we don’t want any more babies born. Mom is under 2 years old herself I think. 🤔

Anyways, little sister briefly met big sister today. 😂 Both of these girls are silver tabbies and look just like their mom. 🥰
Tia (big sister pictured) and Tamara are two kittens from this property still looking for homes unfortunately.

Jasmine is so cute and loving. 🥰

Jasmine is still looking for a home! She’s a very sweet young adult kitty who is looking for a quiet home of her own. She gets along with other friendly cats and dogs. She doesn’t like certain cats of mine who are maybe too rambunctious for her, and she will swat at them, but generally she does like other cats. I have a large, loud pit bull, and she actually loves him (he leaves the cats alone for the most part, except to lick them as he walks past them 😂). She loves to be pet and get attention, she does this every time I’m petting her, she jumps up and grabs my hand with her paws and then goes back and forth and makes me pet her over and over. It may look like she’s going to attack your hand, but she really is very gentle and I think she is just trying to make sure you remember to pet her lol. 🥰 She really is such a wonderful cat.

Consider donating to help us continue saving kitties like her off the street and out of shelters! 🩷
