Last Resort Rescue

Last Resort Rescue We are a small rescue for mainly cats, kittens near Spilsby in. Lincolnshire uk. Our Paypal address is Rescuelast [email protected] .Thank you. Home checks apply .

We are looking for permanent loving homes that meet our criteria so ask many questions before we invite you to come for a chat and meet the animals...
Just because you comment first or like that one “because it’s cute “ doesn’t always mean that you have the perfect home for that animal. We are looking for the most suitable homes for each individual cat or kitten. Sometimes the particular cat th

at you are looking to adopt is not suitable for your lifestyle or home, Our decisions are based on the cats character, individual needs, age and any previous history and in the best interest of both the cat and your family. All cats and kittens shall receive humane care, adequate water, food, shelter, sanitation, exercise, personal attention and veterinary care when required. No adoption shall be made to anyone who breeds any animals. We do not home to anyone having unspayed / uneutered pets, We have strong spay/neuter ethics . Anyone having a kitten too young to be neutered must sign an agreement to get the animal neutered at the appropriate time and fill in a confirmation form telling us where and when the operation took place...
Proof of landlord/agency approval is required if in rented accommodation...

Most of our cats will NOT be vaccinated as this costs the rescue around £75 a cat and if they only get one vaccs before they leave us they may need to to start the course again so we leave this responsibility to the new owner . If you do wish us to get this done for you first then an extra £75 will need to be added to the adoption payment and a further wait of around 2 weeks to complete the course. After years of experience and research we are an anti-vax rescue by choice once they reach adulthood .You of course can make your own mind up and have your cat or kitten vaccinated at your expense .. There is lots of information available on the internet. Here are some good links for those thinking of going down this route . You should of course always be aware of your pets health and visit your vet if there is problem. https://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2017/06/25/pets-over-vaccination.aspx

We don't routinely test for FIV/FELV unless we think its necessary . Here is some useful info about this . https://www.uwsheltermedicine.com/library/resources/why-are-some-shelters-no-longer-testing-all-cats-for-felv-and-fiv. We do of course rely heavily on the adoption fees to help all the animals in our care . Our cats are all regularly flea treated ,wormed and any old enough will be spayed or neutered before they leave which does of course all add up, together with food and litter . A cat spay costs us £100 and a neuter is £75 so please take this into consideration when making your adoption donation . The donation fee asked will vary according to the treatment the cat/kitten has had . Microchipping whilst not law is very helpful in reuniting animals with their owners and is now done by us for each cat and kitten before rehoming.

Our pets are exceptionally special.
They have a natural ability to make us feel at home, to make us feel unconditionally loved—while never asking for anything in return.
We can be ourselves around our pets, wholeheartedly and unapologetically, while receiving the kind of love we all dream about—the kind of love that we don’t always receive from our parents, partners, or friends. This is because pets are far more than just animals. They are our family, our best friends, and sometimes, our soulmates.
Our pets never judge us, offer unsolicited advice, break promises, or let us down.
They exist simply to love, and love is what they do best..

SUNDAY UPDATE ...
Just noticed we have nearly 4k in followers .Wow .
Trying to do wrapping today but keep getting distracted by other things ( I hate wrapping which doesn't help when you have a big family lol ) Also its like a military exercise as I have to keep notes of what I have brought each person as I wrap it so I know who has got what , sometimes someone get 2 of something and someone else doesn't get any at all and if a pressie looses its label there's no hope . I know I also need to buy more bits but need to wrap first and running out of time due to my extra commitments as nurse /carer and dogsbody to the husband who is still pretty much bed ridden with his broken ribs . He has tried to get out of bed each day but realistically with 4 big dogs who love a cuddle with him its just not do able at the moment with the pain he is in .He's finally admitted defeat and that he does need to rest up in order to get better more quickly . The bruising is also coming out but does anyone know if 9, 10 11 rib fractures are more painful than the higher up ones as he certainly is suffering and normally has a high pain threshold and works through anything . (Mind you I have pointed out he's getting older now which he wasn't to pleased about ) So for the time being I am his slave but he puts up with all the recue needs and of course helps build , move and put together anything the cats need and so we do love and appreciate him and want him better .
A word of warning though be careful what you wish for as last Sunday when I was discussing the days "jobs" he did say he would like to spend the day in bed and now he has spent the week there .
Anyway have waffled off long enough about him what about the cats I hear you say :)
I did forget to thank Dora and Dante for donating their cat tree that they never used and for the money their mum gave us . I think there was a photo of the tabbies using the new( 2nd hand) tree last week so they are having fun with it .
Also in case anyone missed it Walsh's holiday Park collected a wonderful amount of stuff for us through the year from their customers and on Friday Belinda collected it all , it amazing thank you .
Jon Abbott came with is monthly food donation and informed me that "Betsy" is actually now "Dave" lol . He is a very "pretty boy" though and is settling in well with the other 2 kittens they adopted from us and the older cats are accepting their 3 new babies into the home .
Thanks also to Janet for dropping some food and blankets and Julie CM for sending us some money .
This week Ajax and Joe had a meet and greet and went to surprise the family's children .It didn't take long for them to fall in love :)
Yesterday Sabrina went to her forever home .She was such a little sweetheart loved by all humans and cats despite the poor start her and her kittens had .They were all a mess when they came in and have all now got completely different lives to the ones they would have had dumped on the streets of Boston .To be fair Sabrina's eyes were so bad she wouldn't have been able to look after her kittens outside for much longer as once they were moving around more she probably would have been able to see to protect them . Although all rescues are still full its important to reach out and seek help for these poor cats dumped on the streets . Even if one rescue can't help at that moment in time us small rescues do work together and can try and work something out between us .
Today 2 older cats have come in as their owner was being evicted .Again we couldn't help straight away but a temporary plan was put in place to ensure proper care for them while waiting for space . Luckily for them Sabrina was adopted meaning they could be helped next. Adopting helps 2 lots of animals the newly adopted and ones waiting for help .
As it was Friday 13th the other day I thought I would add some of our black cats in rescue . We love a black cat and know a lot of you do to so share them with us :)
Right that's enough for tonight the fight with the sellotape awaits (god damn dog got it earlier so not sure if its going to be any good)
Oh lastly still lots of bits for sale on our fundraising pagehttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61560552513440 that can be posted in time for Christmas AND next Saturday we will be at Jollye's in Skegness doing a tombola so any items order could also be collected from there .
UPDATE I have just checked and our fundraising page only has 70 likes and 85 followers so please go and have a peek and a like to get the page seen more .

UPDATE ....I suppose I better add the photo as Belinda pointed out it was missing but I thought I had shared Walsh's post. Stressed not me lol .Did you know that is desserts spelt backwards ? Think I need some :)
Belinda has just picked up all these lovely things collected for us by the staff and customers at Walsh's Holiday Park .
Thank you so much everyone who donated. What a wonderful selection of goodies and lots of treats for the cats Christmas :)

Coco is a shy girl found in a work yard .
She was starting to get used to a home life when the baby was found to be allergic which didn't settle with meds.
She will need time to decompress at her on pace in a fairly quiet home and will only be homed in a pair unless you have kitten of a similar age .
She is currently with Indigo .

UPDATE ..
Well they say it never rains but it pours and its certainly doing that on us again at the moment .
The fundraiser on Saturday was a washout and we only raised £15 but luckily did not have to pay for the table but it does mean we have lots of Christmas bits still to sell and got soaking wet trying to get it in the car and out the car so the weather had a lot to answer for .
My husband fell off the chair yesterday backwards onto the corner of the table and has cracked 3 ribs while attempting to put some Christmas lights up. He is still in Pilgrim on constant meds IV and tablets and not sure when he will be able to come home as he needs to have the pain under control so that he is breathing properly to avoid further issues .It was very worrying as he has a high pain threshold , faints in hospitals but was struggling to breath and asked to go. He still has his sense of humor though which is just as well the year we have had again .
Thanks to everyone who has reacted and commented with positive vibes for him , his post has got more interactions than my updates ever do lol .
Also thanks this week to Lesley and Julie CM and Jane for sending some money , Janet for dropping in some food and someone else possibly Sparky's owner for items dropped off.There was Christmas card from Sparky so I know he is involved somewhere .Clever these cats lol .
Onyx our big smelly boy was castrated and is such a lovely gentle giant I hope he can find a home soon . I was supposed to toddler test him yesterday but had to send the little grandchildren home for our sudden trip to Boston .
Josephine and Bindi went to their new home at the start of the week and Sabrina is reserved subject to her meet and greet .
I have organised a direct home for a young cat in Lincoln which hopefully will work out and we go another bit older black girl in Her name is Coco and she is very shy but her previous owners were getting results so hopefully we will to once I have a bit more time to spend.
A little cat was brought in at the weekend out of the crazy weather , she was thought to be a stray but we chip checked her a reunited her today with her owner .
We still have several kittens looking for homes but all still need a bit of work if anyone fancies a winter project :) A couple of pairs of cats and some single cats all waiting for suitable homes but we do stop homing soon as right on top of Christmas is not a good time to rehome and for animals to settle .
Got one of my grandson's tonight as his sister has an early appointment in Melton Mobray tomorrow so need to let him have my computer back and get the jobs done that still need doing. Not sure what photos I have to put on here but sure you all understand that lives is crazier and much more stressful than normal so I will add my daughters version of the nativity scene , feel free to add any of your own :)
Somehow we have managed to loose a box of special Christmas ornaments too.
Thanks everyone .

Just a quick message to say there won't be an update tonight as mum (Gill) is at the hospital with dad after he fell off a chair he was stood on and has fractured 3 ribs. He is being kept in and on strong pain relief. She will do the update another day. Thank you so much for the continued support.

RESERVED...These pretty tabbies still need a family with a bit of time and patience as they were born outside and a bit timid .
Just after they came in they had to be moved to another foster as my daughter was going on holiday and then they have gone back to her so have been unsettled a lot in a short time.
They love to play but not so keen on being picked up and cuddled yet but in a home where they are the centre of attention and not one of many I'm sure this will change .
They are worm and flead regularly and will be microchipped before they leave .
They need a home with adults or older children away from busy roads.
Home checks and adoption fees apply .

The ladies will add some phots and videos in the comments shortly of some of the babies ready soon .

Beka loves children too . There must be a home out there for then somewhere either as a pair or separatley
