After EXACTLY ONE YEAR in our care, our sweet boy Tuna has finally found his forever home! 🥹 One whole year of waiting for his special someone, and now his happily ever after has finally begun!

Tuna, you were worth every single second of the wait, and we couldn't be happier that you finally have a family to call your own. Thank you to his fosters who struggled with their cat allergies at the beginning, but did the Purina LiveClear diet trial and it worked wonders! And of course, thank you to his amazing adopters for opening your hearts and home to this special boy!

Here's to a lifetime of love, cozy naps, endless treats, and all the happiness you deserve. Happy life, Tuna! You will always hold a special place in our hearts. 🐱💙🏡

💙 Chris is ready to find his forever home! 💙

He’s leaving the single life behind and hoping his special someone is out there waiting for him. Could it be you? 🐾

Chris is the kind of guy who deserves it all: a safe, loving home, a comfy bed, a sunny window to lounge in, and someone who will appreciate his sweet, silly personality. He’s got a personality all his own, and we just know there’s someone out there who will think he’s absolutely perfect. 😻

Now all Chris needs is you.

Foster or Adopter Needed – Poe & Pacino Need a Second Chance

Poe and Pacino are two 5-year-old brothers who thought they had their forever home… until they were recently surrendered back to us through no fault of their own. Now they’re confused, heartbroken, and hoping someone will give them the love they’ve always given so freely 💔

These boys are truly something special.

Poe is one of the sweetest cats you’ll ever meet—super snuggly, constantly purring, and happiest curled up in your lap. He just wants love and affection and will soak up every second of it. He’s also wonderful with kids and babies, making him a perfect family companion.

Pacino is just as loving, with a gentle, easygoing personality. He adores attention, gets along great with other male cats, and is an all-around wonderful companion.

They share a beautiful bond and would love to stay together if possible—but they can absolutely go to separate homes if needed. Whether together or apart, they each have so much love to give 🐾💛

We are urgently looking for a foster or adopter (or foster-to-adopt) who can open their heart and home to one or both of these amazing boys. They deserve stability, comfort, and a family who won’t give up on them again.

Please don’t let Poe and Pacino wait any longer. If you can help—or even share this post—you could change their lives.

It’s been a while since we’ve posted — our tiny but mighty team has been hard at work behind the scenes doing what we love most: helping cats in need. While we’ve stayed busy with TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) and our adoption program, we’ve admittedly fallen behind on social media and fundraising. But we’re still here, still working, and still committed to every cat we care for.

Unfortunately, one of our long-term fosters, sweet Miss Bobbi, gave us a scare last week and ended up at the ER vet with a rough case of gastritis. Her bill totaled $800, a huge hit for our little rescue.

Between unexpected medical bills, ongoing TNR efforts, and the costs of flea/tick/heartworm prevention and vaccines for our long-term fosters, our funds have taken a serious hit.

If you're able to chip in to help with Bobbi’s bill or support our TNR work, we would be endlessly grateful. Every dollar truly makes a difference. If donating isn’t possible, sharing this post helps more than you know. 🐱✨

We’re a grassroots rescue trying to get back on our feet — with your help, we can keep showing up for the cats who need us most.

📲 on Venmo and on our website: chesapeakerescue.org for more ways to donate.
🙏 Thank you for supporting our mission.

Miss Iris is looking for a new home!

This black and white beauty has lived outdoors for most of her life but is hoping to find an indoor family before it gets too cold. 🥶 This girl is shy, but has warmed up very well to her current caretaker.

Little Iris is missing one of her front feet. We will have her evaluated by a vet and all shots updated. She has been spayed.

If you’re interested in Iris please reach out to us as soon as possible! We’d love to get her indoors and somewhere safe before the weather changes.

Pm us or email us at [email protected]

Sally (brown) & Lucy (grey) are still searching for their furrever homes!

These two ladies would prefer a home together. Once they get familiar with you, they love to be held and enjoy having a perch on your shoulder while you go about your daily activities.

Interested in these two ladies? Fill out an adoption application at chesapeakerescue.org

Swipe for the cutest BLEP! 👅

BARN HOME NEEDED!

Marcie is a mama kitty who’s done her duty raising her kittens and is now spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and up to date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention… Since she has now retired from motherhood, she is looking for a safe/outdoor place to call home.

Marcie is feral. She does not desire to live indoors or be a family pet.

Do you have a barn or a large property where you need a mouser or help with pest control? Miss Marcie would be great at that! We would provide supplies and assistance to help her get properly acclimated.
