The team was out last night in the rain after being alerted of an injured male cat hobbling around Atlantic. They were able to locate the Tom and secure him in a trap. He will be getting neutered next week and was dropped off this morning to get his leg injury tended to by one of our vets. If able to donate to help with the medical expenses please drop money off at our various donation boxes, Avoca vet clinic, Lyman Vet clinic, Atlantic Animal Shelter (please make sure you put it in our box as theres other groups at the shelter too, if you're wanting us to receive the funding 😊 double check the names as they're similar) , Pawsome LLC, donate online through our Facebook or

We picked up this cat who was hit by a car in Wiota. We were told this cat had been running around injured for weeks. Thats unacceptable. Our friends at Lyman vet clinic ran x-rays for us and discovered he had a fractured leg. They treated him over the week for a UTI and an abscess on his tail. We transferred care over to Avoca vet clinic over the weekend for his neuter and vaccinations where he will be rehomed to a member of their staff for continued care. This guy has suffered greatly and is now getting the help he needs. Doing whats in the cats best interests is always the priority. Shout out to our amazing vets for their generosity. 🐱

Ear mites
Yuck! A kitten we picked up today has ear mites.
Ear mites are a microscopic pest that is transmitted from animal to animal, and they can cause a dark, waxy residue that resembles coffee grounds in the ear canal. They make the ear very itchy and can cause skin irritation and deep wounds from excessive scratching.
You can donate to this kittens care here ~~~》

Returning spayed and neutered cats- TNR for Sycamore Village
With permission from the owner of Sycamore Village in Atlantic we have been slowly working on TNR for that area. There are a lot of cats and this will take some time to complete. How can you help? If you own a cat and live in Sycamore Village please keep them inside. Or if you must let them out have some type of identification on them, collars or microchips for example. All cats caught will be returned the following day after clinic (spayed/neutered and vaccinated). All cats that have already been TNR have ear notches to identify they are already done. Please leave these cats alone (unless medical care is needed)
Each cat costs us anywhere between 68-90$ (per cat)
We run on donations and volunteers and as you can imagine this is an expensive project (please do not harm these cats, TNR is a proven and humane method to control population. With TNR you prevent new kittens from being born and establish existing groups that keep new cats from coming in. These cats have designated care givers who feed them. If you would like to join the caregiver crew or help with the TNR process or open your barn to working cats in need send us a message. )
Our goal is to have everyone in the park spayed by the end of the year.
Cody of Sycamore Village has expressed to us that they have been battling the cat problem for 4 years now and does not want any more kittens- and neither do we! It is very important to please spay and neuter your cats-especially if they go outside.
We thank you in advance for your help and cooperation 🥰
If you see us around feel free to chat 😀
Donations can be made to Avoca vet clinic (just tell them it's for Cass county cats) Or in person at Pawsome, LLC and The Barn Dog Grooming

Past rescue videos
I made this video awhile ago when I was trying to find homes. They have all since been adopted but I wanted to share some of my journey in rescue.
3 different cats caught last winter. The first one was a full grown cat who was cold, hurt and starving. She only weighed 2lbs and was full of worms with an injured back leg. The 2nd cat was a feisty little thing who I spent 2 nights crawling around a freezing wearhouse trying to locate and trap in the middle of the night. She unfortunately has FeLv but one of our members took her in and she lives the lap of luxury now. The 3rd I caught behind a local grocery store after being asked to help by management. He was particularly difficult to trap and didn't fall for any of my tricks but eventually gave in and was adopted. 😊
