We are very pleased that 2 more dentals have been sponsored!!
We currently have a 5 scheduled, but there are 10 to 15 that are in urgent need. These cats have infections and are living with constant pain. The dental is not a luxury for them however, we have only raised enough money for four at this time. We do not want to compromise the money that we have received to Spay And Neuter the cats because stopping the colonies from growing is our number one priority.

If you would like to support us, please note that we can provide a donation receipts. Please add your email address for us to send it back.

I’m very happy to report that we have a rescue willing to take the 3 seniors from the pool shed. These 3 ten year old girls have lived their entire lives in a small space together and will not have to return. Speak Up for Paws has agreed to take care of their medical needs, so we are currently raising funds for their upcoming dentals. Participating in our current raffle helps us help the cats to give them a better quality of life for the remaining years. Without your support they would have to go back without pain relief. Our original intention was to spay neuter them all and provide basic medical care for infections, flea and ear mite prevention and vaccinations, however, many will not be able to have any quality of life if we don’t give them a dental surgery that will remove their pain and infection. As long as we have people supporting us, we will help as many cats as we can. Currently, we have 5 that we have committed to, but that means we have to come up with $5000. Supporting our raffle $20 at a time truly will make a difference if you were all on board to help us. [email protected] PawPortunity

Prosecco is with Adopt Me while she’s on antibiotics. She’s very sweet and we’re hoping to have a rescue take her on.

Currently Adopt Me cat rescue is caring for 8 cats from the hoarding house. All of which are on medicine and 2 of which that are waiting for their dental surgery.

These cats have been existing for years in this situation, but have had no life. Our raffle and continuous need for funds is to help support approximately 60 cats. We have raised money for spaying and neutering, but we don’t have enough for dentals. All the cats need dentals, but obviously that is not in the least bit realistic or affordable. We are hoping to provide dentals to the ones that need it most but we need your help.

If you know a business, that’s willing to help us we can provide tax receipts. Please share and help us help these cats.

Some great news to share today for Champagne and Moonshine, the senior cats living in a shed together for 8 to 10 years. There were several cats living in the shed, and unfortunately, this week we had to say goodbye to Martini who we suspect had mouth cancer. She had been suffering for quite some time and was simply existing until her time was over. Although it saddens me that she never got to experience love and comfort as she should, we gave her the gift of peace and pain free forever sleep. Now today was Champagne and Moonshine’s turn for a follow up appointment and bloodwork. Good news, their kidneys are fine and they don’t diabetes. Aside from an ongoing infection, they are on the road to recovery! We have decided to go ahead and book their dental for mid March. Once healed, they will be transitioned to a sanctuary and will not have to return to the shed.

Saving these two cats however, goes beyond typical TNR. We are choosing to invest in them by doing bloodwork, and dentals. Doing so takes away limited resources that we have collected to spay and neuter the many cats still living in the house. Therefore, we have decided to put together a raffle in hopes to raise money for these two special girls who very much deserve to know what it is to be loved and have all the comforts they deserve.

For $20 you will get a chance to win two tickets to Koena Spa, a bottle of champagne, two bottles of red wine and a beautiful large cat scratch post.
(Will post pictures shortly of the prizes).

20$ for 1 chance to win, 50$ for 3 chances to win.

Sangria is from the hoarding house that Speak Up for Paws is currently helping to support. She is with Adopt Me Cat Rescue along with 4 others that are here for support and evaluation until we determine where they will go once better. Sangria is a senior cat who has lived her entire life in a shed. She is not very well socialized and therefore while she is being medicated for her severe double ear infection, she needs to be caged. It is endearing to see her play with toys, considering that she spent 10 years in a shed with no enrichments.

Moonshine has lived in a shed for 10 years. She has had no quality of life. She was given warmth, food and water, but no enrichments, medical care or love. She is flee bitten, has ear mites, stomatitis on her tongue and needs her remaining teeth removed as soon as possible to give her some quality of life for the few years she has left. We hope to have her dental sponsored to remove her discomfort. She is in great pain at the moment. Her dental will likely cost approximately 1500$- 2000$

Last week we had the pleasure of hosting some CH (cerebellar hypoplasia) at Pet Valu on Carling avenue. We were graced with the presence of Bambi the little Instagram star and a few kitties from ’s kitty haven. These cats are special and have a lot of love to give they are definitely adoptable and can live a full and happy life.

Please consider educating yourselves on these cats and adopt a special kitty today.

13 cats went in to be spayed and neutered from the hoarding house. Thank you Courtney for braving the slippery roads and giving up her day to help these cats. 🙏❤️🐈‍⬛

From the 13 sent to the clinic today, 3 were way too sick to undergo surgery. Several had severe infections and multiple complications. 5 will be going back to Adopt Me Cat Rescue temporarily to be treated until healed before returning to their home.

In addition to the 13, 10 others have been to the clinic because they were first determined to be in the worst condition. However, there are others but they are difficult to locate and trap in the house.

There were also 28 others that have been given their first vaccination and given Revolution. There are way more to get done and the clock is ticking for the outdoor cats. Coyotes are coming and snatching them. The outdoor colony is shrinking quickly. 😞

Approximately 31 have been transferred to different rescues so far. I believe a few more will moved in upcoming weeks.

Our mission is to educate, advocate, and dedicate. However, it is our goal to collaborate with those who are like-minded as well. With the EOC fiasco, several rescue stepped up to help, including Riverview Rescue. They took on huge expenses with very sick cats that were severely neglected. Speak Up for Paws started a GoFundMe page to raise funds and although our funds didn’t reach the level we would have hoped for we are pleased to transfer $3100 to Riverview Rescue for their efforts and dedication to the cats they have taken in.
