Oscar's Rescue & Rehabilitation

We celebrated 3 years in operation last Sunday. We were grateful to share this special day with the folks at PetO Melton, who hosted a meet and greet event for our kitties. Thank you, PetO! And thank you to those who visited, donated and/or bought merchandise! For the four kind people who provided expressions of interest in adopting, we will be in touch soon!

These 4 fluey neonates came to us from another rescue. It is always wonderful when we can pool resources to save more lives. Rescues are so much stronger together!

Patch is a spicy stray cat who had a ruptured eye when he was trapped and brought into care.

Today we had Patch's damaged eye removed at the same time as his desexing.

This poor boy has been through the wars and has a long journey ahead of him. His surgery will be healed in a couple of weeks, but the scars of living rough for 4 years are going to take months or even a year of socialisation before he will be ready for adoption.

Today's vet bill will be costly! If you would like to contribute, you can donate via PayPal or direct deposit.

RIP Sylvia. You were a perfect kitten and everyone who met you fell in love with you. You are gone but not forgotten 💔

Normally desexing procedures don't have issues. Unfortunately a fatal mistake was made in Sylvia's case where chlorhexidine (a toxic antiseptic) was not washed off during her procedure. Sylvia ingested it and it burnt her tongue and throat and sent her to emergency for oxygen. She seemed to get better at first, but then suddenly she started coughing and mouth-breathing. It seems likely that the antiseptic made it into her airways.

Despite 4 vet visits and 2 visits to emergency, Sylvia passed away yesterday. We are devastated.

If you would like to contribute towards the $3K+ cost of Sylvia's treatments, and to help us continue rescuing cats, please donate.

***ADOPTED***

This adoption post is a little different to our usual... welcome Bean and Popcorn, bonded guinea pigs!

Bean & Popcorn were sadly surrendered due to new family members having a hay allergy. They were very much loved by their dad, who was sad to say goodbye. These guinea pigs were clearly sad to lose...
