A wonderful young woman from a wonderful family saw a hungry cat in distress at the train station. Day after day, she left food for the little cat, worried for her survival. She contacted me, and for several nights we sat in her car, trying to trap the cat. Finally, the wonderful young woman and her equally wonderful mom successfully trapped the cat, I got her spayed right away, and now a homeless cat, who just last week was dodging cars in a train station parking lot, has, you guessed it, a wonderful new life. It was a privilege to work with this particular family, all of whom are filled with compassion and kindness. #thisisrealrescue #loveisaverb #dotherightthing
Today I returned a prolific neighborhood baby daddy to his regular stomping grounds, after a neuter appointment, vaccines and an overnight stay. TNR is how I hit my start in rescue, and still a core program here. This big guy is fortunate to have regular food and a safe place to get out of the elements, and won’t be fathering any more kittens. #rescuerightny #tnrsaveslives #katonahny #feralcats #feralcatsmatter
Your morning dose of Clementine!
Spring has sprung, and we’re rescuing momma cats and kittens everywhere. These babies and their mom got here just in time, with the kittens on the brink of starvation. Mom is receiving some much needed nutrition, and we’re all taking turns bottle feeding the babies every two hours. We’re tired, but it’s worth it. #bottlebabies #kittenrescue #localshelter #rescuerightbedford #thisisrealrescue
