Lisa's Home For Criminally Insane Kittens

These two cuties are coming back to me as a bonded pair. They're about a year old, and one is social, the other only likes other kitties. Can't really blame him, kitties are awesome. If anyone is up for a pair of handsome young tuxies, these two would love to make your house a bit more high falutin and elegant, not to mention mouseless. I'm adopting them as an indoor only pair because that's the only life they know, but I bet they would love a catio too.

Kiki has moved to wonderful digs at Cat Care Society, where he'll get some medical checks (they did get the medical records from his appointment with South Fork Veterinary Clinic) and will hopefully soon find his dream home, where he can have the up to 12h/day of lap time that he desires and deserves.

Kiki is a big deal and is looking for his forever home.

He's maybe 6 years old (wild guess) and was abandoned on the street by the relatives when his person moved to a nursing home. He's an utterly sweet boy; purring and headbutts within 15 seconds of meeting me. He is overweight and will be getting a higher quality food to help him with that. He'll see a vet to diagnose why he's gone blind and see if there's anything we can do to help him.

Anyone who's had a blind cat can tell you it's not a huge problem unless you have a need to rearrange your furniture on a regular basis. Once he learns where his food, water, and litter are, it's no biggie, unlike Kiki.

June 21, '22 I adopted out this fetching Cookie to my friend in Del Norte. A few weeks ago, that friend passed away and in the confusion, her cat took off and wouldn't come back inside. I got a call about it two days ago. Yesterday, I brought a trap over and got it set up. Our mutual friend John knew where Cookie was hanging out and got the trap set in the right spot. He secured her pretty much right away. This morning, I went out and got her from John. Cookie is now hiding under the bed in my kitten room, understandably terrified by recent events. I hope with time to adjust and feel safe again, she'll come out and be friends. Then we can begin looking for her forever home.

This sweet old guy is headed to the vet in a week. We're hoping to diagnose the cause of his blindness. What doesn't need diagnosis? Temperament. Total lap honey. Needs a home with a sweet retired person who can sit with him all day!

The boys that are coming back, this is their intake photo. September '23 they were about two months old, had eye infections, and they were terrified, the poor dears.

Looking for transfer or a foster home for five of the most loving kittens I have ever met. Additional responsibilities for foster cats have come up, so I can't keep these adorable little guys any longer. They're intact but have first vx, about 3 mo, raised indoor by an elderly couple who had to surrender them.

I got to meet this little guy on Sunday and I'm sad his short journey is over. The best way to prevent the unseen suffering of the millions of kittens born outside is to fix feral cats. Donate in Orville's name.

This baby has the prettiest eyes.

This was an amazing collaboration with so many players!

I tell you what.

Undoubtedly the best kittens ever made available for adoption.

Kittens have all gone to their next step, the orange boy and two sisters to their forever/foster-to-adopt home, and the tabby and lynx point to the surgeon and then onto adoption.

I'm super proud to be collaborating on kitten rescue with so many varied and dedicated partners, but I'm taking a break to focus on spay and neuter, because that's how we mitigate the climbing euthanasia rates. Not to mention straight up death on the streets for the ones who never see any assistance.

We cannot foster and adopt our way out of exponential feral cat population growth. We cannot hoard these animals in shelters and "sanctuaries" for their whole lives. Hoarders are gonna hoard, breeders will breed, feeders will feed, and people will continue to insist that their pets need to procreate. They're wrong and doing immense harm to the very creatures they claim to love.

So I'm doing what I can to be most effective- supporting feral cat spay and neuter with my time and my money.

All the current batch have destinations! The three Monte kittens are going to be adopted in Monte via the person who trapped them in the first place, and the two kittens from Alamosa will be adopted out at my local vet office. Just in time, as I'm out of town for the whole first half of September and expect to be hauling back a few colony kittens from those clinics.

Ever feel like you're being watched?

Rocket and Groot are doing great. Eyes about healed, all systems go. Just so active, hard to photograph!

The latest kittens. There's one more left out at the colony, but the caretaker is working on rounding it up. Cats Alive has been working on this colony for at least six years. There's just two intact females left of dozens of cats fixed from this colony.
