Why do we beg for fosters? THIS is why!
Without enough fosters, Dumpling (now Elsa 🥰) would have died a slow, painful death outside.
With the help of a great foster, she was able to get healthy, have her eye removed, and live a live where she thrived until her perfect forever home was found.
Elsa’s new girl, Maddi had vision issues as a baby and needed a complex corrective surgery at the age of 2. She saw Dumpling, who was missing an eye and just knew she had to give her a loving forever home.
LET THIS SINK IN:
A young girl looked through all our kittens. She saw fluffy ones, white ones, perfect blue eyed babies and a silky, one eyed, black kitten and knew that baby needed to be loved. Yes she felt a connection to that vision impaired kitten, but she also saw beauty where ADULTS often see imperfection.
I know everyone always wants the Siamese mixes we end up with. They want the long haired kitties and the fluffy white cats, but there are so many more BEAUTIFUL, LOVING cats and kittens waiting for their chance at a forever home.
So if we don’t reply right away (or at all) when you start emailing and messaging about kittens too young to be adopted, because you want to somehow put a hold on one of those “special” kittens, step back and be like Maddi!
See the beauty in all the kitties and apply for a cat already waiting for a home!
Whose coming!?!
Tons of stuff to do this Sunday!
Yoga, get a tattoo, adopt a kitten, shop vendors, grab coffee or an ice cream!
It’s all fun and games until your brother tinkles in your face…😂
Here we go again….
Little Miss Rubie has been doing fabulous. She has been energetic and playful, and mischievous. All the things a 6 month old kitten should be. She has had a great appetite and has been following me around like a puppy. We couldn’t love her more!
Today was our 84 day bloodwork! Meaning Rubie has been on FIP treatment for 84 days. A clean blood panel will mean we can enter the observation period.
Today she slept most of the day, and I was busy setting up some cages in the foster room for some weekend visitors.
As we sat in the waiting room, Rubie’s Dr came out to see her (because seriously…everybody loves this girl). I said that I thought she felt a little warm, so her Dr held her a bit, and we noticed a little gunk in her eyes. We got a weight and a temp on our girl, and weren’t surprised when her temp came back at 104.6. 😥. She got some fluids, and we are going to start her on antibiotics, but this girl just needs to catch a break!
I can almost guarantee that regardless of bloodwork, we are going to have to extend her treatment. We are really running out of places to give this poor girl daily injections.
It also means we are going to have to order more medication, after another $200 vet bill today.
If you can help with this girls treatment…even just a few dollars, please consider donating to our fundraiser below:

We just need Rubie to be OK, so any good juju/prayers/a little mojo our way…anything, would be much appreciated!
Moo (and we) don’t know why she hasn’t had ANY adoption applications!?!
Moo is a great cat! She is a little shy at first, until she is sure of her people and surroundings, but VERY affectionate after she is comfortable with you.
Moo is good with kids, has lived with a large dog, and would get along great, with another female cat/s. She is 6, but has the playful energy of a kitten!
Come meet Moo at Pet Supplies Plus - Belle Vernon, PA today! 12-4pm.
Getting ready to get baskets together for our Kitten Shower/Tattoo Event this Saturday!
Mark your calendars and come out and see us!
