💜AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION 💜

Three more absolute wee stunners looking for their new families

Kitten one is a wee boy, kitten two another boy and kitten three sister of number two. The siblings would love to stay together but can be separated if there are other pets in the home as both love playing. All are ready to go now so please send a message with details about your family and other pets etc. the more info you provide the easier it is for us to judge which homes suit their needs best. Usual adoption donation applies.

💜RESERVED💜

These gorgeous babies are all around 10 weeks old and are ready to find their homes. The first two kittens are boys. Black and white is the more confident of the two, little white and Tabby is a bit nervous so we would like them to find a home where they can stay together as they have so much fun playing and love to cuddle up 🥰

Then we have wee Agnes (her fosters name for her). She’s an adorable ball of fluff, playful and cuddly she’s been in foster with cats and dogs so can happily live with other animals.

As always drop us a message if you’d like to be considered to adopt with INFO about your family and other pets, working pattern etc. If you can’t adopt then please share. Thank you 🙏🏻

💜SUKI AND OREO💜

Some of you may find these photos a bit distressing (our last post was reported for containing images of these kittens), however we feel it’s vitally important that everyone is aware of the horrors these wee souls live through being born outside with no one providing any vet care.

Wee Suki will soon be booked in to have her eye removed as by the time we found her it was already far too infected to be saved and was ulcerated. Her brother Oreo we are still hoping the treatment will work and we can save his full sight but no guarantees. Her operation won’t be cheap and neither is his ongoing care and medications however they’re worth it! Each and every little life is worth all of us coming together to save. So if you’re able please donate towards this wee girls surgery. Thank you as always

💜Happy International Cat Day💜

Although we’ve had a crazy couple of weeks with the Uist cats we’re still trapping here in Lewis. We were contacted by a family to let us know about a Mum and kittens living in a rabbit burrow on the Machair in Barvas. A very unusual place for a feral to choose to keep her litter as they’re so far from any villages. However off we went in the wind and rain. They were being very elusive on day one but thankfully day two Mum and three gorgeous kittens were caught with another kitten trapped today. Just one to get! Huge thanks to this family who are monitoring the trap and being such a huge help! If you spot any wild
Living cats in villages or even at the beach just give us a shout as they deserve a better life than this.

On Saturday this week we’ll be at the Car Boot in the Sea Angling club doing our very best to raise funds to care for all the cats and kittens in care so please do pop along, we’d love to see you.

Ps-the kittens are not available for adoption just yet so please don’t message until we post an adoption post

‼️BARN/STABLE/GARDEN CATS‼️

This evening we received a lovely update about two of our Barra cats who went to a mainland barn and it promoted us to remember to advertise our latest group of neutered beauties looking for work!

If you can offer a safe, dry place for some 100% environmentally friendly pest control please get in touch! There is no adoption fee for these cats as all we care about is having them settled and cared for so please get in touch and share everywhere as we are always able to transport through all you wonderful supporters and our team. Thank you 🙏🏻

This wee cutie is looking for the perfect family. Anyone on Lewis or Harris interested in adopting her? She can be transported here no problem so please do get in touch with Uist Cat Rescue for details 💕🐾

💜UPDATE💜

We’re sure you all remember the Lemreway stray we took into care. She had been wandering the village for years being fed by various people. We nicknamed her Cinderella and this really is a rags to riches story!

Our beautiful shy girl is now in her very own home, she’s well fed, cosy and most of all loved 🥰. We knew you’d all want to see her happily ever after, but we’re just so happy for her 💕🐾

‼️💜UIST RESCUE MISSION 💜‼️

As mentioned in our previous post we were contacted by some members of the public in South Uist with grave concerns for wild living cats in their local area. They had spoken to the large National animal charity (Not Cats Protection)who advised that they wouldn’t help but told them to contact us. So being the volunteers we are we couldn’t stand by and ignore the plight of these cats.

Here are just some of the lucky ones we managed to trap that trip. Kittens in horrific condition, eyes glued shut with infection, riddled with fleas and worms. All underweight and suffering from cat flu. Having got them vet checked thankfully we’re pretty confident that with intensive eye drop treatment most of their eyes can be saved. One little guy has to loose his eye (little black face) as his eye is too ulcerated to save, we’re currently getting him as healthy as we possibly can and ensuring he gains some much needed weight before he goes under anaesthetic to give him the best possible chance of surviving such a major operation.

The adults haven’t fared much better, most have hair loss due to flea allergies and poor nutrition. All are severely underweight, as seen in the photos when they arrived in care, (climbing the door). You’ll also notice the black cat was extremely pregnant when she arrived so gave birth the next morning to three tiny kittens. Thank goodness she waited till she got here as now she and her babies are clean and cosy and she’s offered as much food as she can eat! They’re the first litter in generations of this poor family who’ll never have to know hunger or fear!

As you can tell we desperately need your help. Our vet bills for one month alone are eye watering and with no funding available to us from anywhere but you guys we have to ask you all to dig deep and donate anything you can. Just the price of the Engies coffee you usually grab or skipping your donut 🍩 this weekend from Church Street would be awesome as every penny really does count!

We must mention that Uist Cat rescue would have loved to be able to be the ones to help these wee souls. However they don’t have the facilities or number of volunteers needed to undertake such a large rescue. They are however assisting with ongoing trapping in the area and will be ensuring that any others from the colony are transported to us safely for care. We hope to make another trip down just as soon as funds and space allow as there are so many more cats living wild in this village, all of them have spread from this one situation making the problem so much bigger than we were first expecting. We know you guys will agree that we can’t abandon them now we know about them and we have a duty to ensure they all, at the very least receive the vet care they need and are neutered to avoid the fighting and starving they’re currently living with.

So please help if you can, if you can’t please share! With your help and support we can change lives! 💜

📌Any help no matter how small amount will be invaluable to ensuring the health and survival of these cats.

💜 Thank You to Our Incredible Volunteers! 💜

This week, our incredible volunteers have travelled over 1️⃣0️⃣3️⃣8️⃣ miles across Lewis, Harris, Berneray, North Uist, Benbecula, and South Uist. These miles covered essential tasks like vet runs, cleaning cat pens, doing washing, collecting supplies, and more importantly, rescuing cats in need.

Because of their dedication, we have been able to take in 3️⃣3️⃣ cats and kittens this week who desperately needed our help. Each one of these furry friends will require veterinary care, neutering, housing, and feeding.

WISCK is a wholly volunteer-run organisation with no paid staff and no income. We rely entirely on the generous support of our amazing community. Without your donations and support, none of this would be possible.

Please consider supporting us to ensure these cats and kittens receive the care they need. Your donations make a huge difference.

📌Any help no matter how small amount will be invaluable to ensuring the health and survival of these cats.
