Saving the Rockwood Kitties

This page is dedicated to the colony of dumped cats in Rockwood Creek in Cameron MO. I have been an animal lover all of my life.

In May of 2019, some coworkers of mine saved a 2-week old kitten that had been left by his mother. They knew my love for animals and asked me if I'd take care of him. I gave it my all for the 2 weeks following as the kitten had too many medical problems. He passed away at the vet's office on June 2nd. granted I still tear up over his passing as he was a little fighter. But then I met a litter of a

ll boys, a pack of 5. They were dehydrated, malnourished, anemic, and full of worms and fleas. out of the 5, there were only 3 that survived. I kept 1 and the other two went home. My guy has a lot of challenges due to his tough upbringing early in life. But I wouldn't trade them for the world... After that I wanted to help more animals and save many more lives.

Well, I moved to a new home and a new town but not before finishing my goal which was saving the colony. The entire colony but 3 have been relocated to multiple farms in Polo where they are thriving and doing so well. I took Cali and Abby with me to my new home but unfortunately they escaped before completing the transition period. I've searched and searched for over a month and can not find them at all. It really breaks my heart. I am however going to delete my page in a few days as there's really no more need for it. I created this page to help my colony I was taking care of. So now that they've been relocated and I'm no longer in Cameron there's no need for the page to stay active. Though I might make a page just for my remaining furkids.

Please share far and wide, let's get these guys new homes! Or if you know of a rescue that could take them. Weather it's in Missouri or a surrounding state.

08/27/2022

Please let me know if you can take any of these babies. A couple would make great mousers for a barn or shop Patches and Wild Thing.

08/24/2022

Hey guys, I've got some fosters that are in need of loving homes. Their descriptions are below their pics. If you're interested in any of these sweet babies please call or text Amanda Robertson at 660 973 8837

Lila has had her first shot, if anyone is interested in adopting her please let me know thank you. She's so sweet and loves to snuggle. She's litter box trained and good with dogs.

Who says outdoor cats can't play with indoor cat toys? It helps keep their hunting skills sharp just like indoor cats.

Meet Lila, I found her taped up in a box last week with her sister with no ventilation... sadly her sister did not survive. Lila was very spicy when I first brought them home and set up a sick bed for them in a large dog kennel. The gray kitten was very sick from day one and it was clear she wasn't going to make it. Lila on the other hand was mad at the world. It took a few days for her to trust me. I'm getting her kitten shots started next week and she will be ready for her new home.
If anyone is interested in Lila please contact me Amanda Robertson at 660-973-8837

So, I was taking Kenny and Yano to the vet yesterday for shots when a friend of mine came forward about an hour before I needed to leave with the kittens.... she was looking for a kitten and she adopted Yano! And as a bonus this little wild child torti that I'd found just a day or two ago! She took both kittens into her home! Thank you Andyy! I know these girls will be so loved and cared for!

04/29/2022

And what's in store for Kenny? Well... after thinking about it... he's staying right here... I lost my orange tabby Garfield several months ago, and I know Kenny can never replace that stubborn boy... I feel my heart is ready for another orange tabby and I'm in a better place financially so the new addition won't be a problem. I'm taking a break from kittens after this long 9 month run of rescuing and nursing sick and dying kittens. Now that all the females but one are spayed I shouldn't have to worry about any more. There is planning in the works to trap Jazzy's mom and get her spayed.

04/29/2022

This young lady Dorothy sets off on her new adventure with her new momma Saturday. Her new mom is a friend and coworker and I know Dorothy is going to be so well taken care of.

04/29/2022

Chase has found a loving home in Kansas City, he's going from a country boy to a city boy! He leaves Saturday afternoon to meet his new family that are so excited about him joining the family.

04/29/2022

Bae has found her forever home and sets off tomorrow on her new journey of life! Her new mom is so excited to get her.

04/29/2022

Yano is going to a rescue next Friday! After telling them her story they want to keep her name as she moves on to bigger and better things. Like so many of the Rockwood Kitties before her she will be adopted into a forever loving home and leave her trailer park days behind her.

04/28/2022

This beautiful girl is Yano, she is full of life and loves to follow you around. She's a snuggle bug like her sister, she has a medium length tail, her mom is Cali who has no tail at all. She is litter box trained and loves to eat. A rescue or a permanent home would be awesome for Yano and her sister Bae as they are the last 2 of the 5 to find a home. Please let me know who can take these beautiful babies.

04/28/2022

This is Bae, she's Cali's baby that was born 3/8, she's the master of cuddles and play time, she's got medium length fur, she's 7 weeks old now and uses the litter box regularly. She loves food and knows when it's time to eat. She's been raised around dogs and other cats and does very well. A rescue or permanent home is what I'm looking for, for her and her sister who I'm posting next. Let me know if you have room in your heart and home for these girls.

04/28/2022

Jazzy has really come a long way over the past few months. She is still so shy, but will let me pet her when she is feeling social, she loves to run and play as any kitten does, Prince is her buddy and has helped her see humans are a good thing. She is still looking for a forever home or a rescue to go to. She will require patience and a lot of understanding that she's not a lap cat. She's been raised around dogs and other cats and does very well. She understands the word no if she's doing something wrong and will stop what she's doing. She's litter box trained and has a big appetite. Please let me know if you're interested is this beautiful baby.

All 6 of these cats went to NAWS today in Gladstone and got spayed and neutered! It took no time at all to get these babies all taken care of by these wonderful people. Out of my colony of 15 it feels so good to say 13 have been spayed and neutered! Once those last two are caught we will have reached our goal of saving these guys! I want to thank the workers and volunteers at NAWS who helped me in this journey. Every one is doing well and are waking up from anesthesia. There was also a donation that covered 2 of the spays! Whoever you are and are reading this... thank you so very much.

04/27/2022

Well, I caught 5 of the colony cats... 2 were being ornery and not feeling cooperative today. But we are adding Cali to the group to go ahead and get her spay done. Her babies are 7 weeks old now and are 90% weaned. So tomorrow morning there will be 6 cats getting spayed and neutered. I work for four hours tonight and I left 2 traps out in hopes of maybe catching one of the two I'm missing... if not then all we'll better luck next time.

04/26/2022

So, today we catch 7 cats to go to NAWS to get TNR done! Got 2 so far! Jazzy's trying to help calm them. These 2 girls will get spayed and then returned to the colony by the weekend! Still got several to catch but hey, the day is still young!

04/13/2022

Jazzy aka Jasmine has reached a milestone that I prayed everyday she would do. She got on my lap for the first time ever. This is huge for such a shy little girl. I wouldn't say she's faral anymore just very shy and hesitant. She is looking for her forever home, she's spayed and UTD on shots. But serious inquiries only as this kitten is extremely shy and it's taken her months to get this far. She would do great in a home with other kittens or a patient older cat. She's ok with dogs but isn't a fan.

04/05/2022

Want to see the result of not spaying and neutering your cat? No? Well I'll show you anyway.
I've discovered that Cali has a family tree going on out here. And she is only 2 years old at best. Read from the pics below the family tree...
Cali will be spayed 2 weeks from the time her babies are weaned. She had a difficult delivery that could have killed her and her babies.
I'm sure there's more but this is just one strand I've put together. I am working on spaying and neutering the colony as I go. There was 30+ cats now there's 14.

04/04/2022

Look at who's 4 weeks old! They're spoiled rotten and very social. There are in fact 3 girls and 2 boys names and genders under pics.

03/21/2022

The kittens are a day shy of 2 weeks old, 4 of them have their eyes open, the little diluted calico's eyes are getting there she's a little behind the others. They're all so sweet they don't hide when I hold them and curiosity is setting in. I renamed the diluted calico and little Mikey. I have a Veteran theme going on with them so I changed their names to fit the bill... that and kitten 2 (Mikey) may be a girl.... that one has a very unique name that I found on Google search. Let me know if you're interested in any of these guys. KC is spoken for. They won't be ready to go home until May 3rd.

03/13/2022

So, names and genders are in. The fab 5 are doing amazing, growing by leaps and bounds. Their names are below their pictures. Let me know if you're interested in one of these babies. Those who doesn't find a home will be going to rescue.

03/09/2022

Update on Cali's kittens, they're all doing great. There's 2 that have shorter tails and 3 with normal tails. Cali is a manx (no tail). The tabby and white and gray tabby are the most active and keep Cali on her toes... I told her wait until next week when their eyes open... I put descriptions below their pics.

03/08/2022

They're here! 5 babies! All doing very well and have chubby tummies already! 4 have normal tails and 1 has a half tail which would classify the little one to be a manx! Bedding has been changed and Cali is so happy.

03/08/2022

Cali update, at 7:15 this morning Cali's water broke at 8am she delivered her first baby, it was breach and stuck, but it was born alive thank God. At 8:15 baby 2 made its very loud debut. Once all the babies are born and Cali rests I'll post kitten pics.

03/06/2022

This is Cali, she is one of the colony cats. She is also very very pregnant and is about to have a litter of kittens. Once her babies are 8 weeks old they will be going to Ace cat sanctuary and rescue to find their forever homes. I'll let everyone know when she has them. It should be in the next 12 hours or so.

03/03/2022

Huge thank you to NAWS - Northland Animal Welfare Society for providing low cost spay and neuter services!
On Saturday the 26th, we spent the day at Naws. 12 cats, including 5 from Saving the Rockwood Kitties have been spayed and neutered.
Traps are covered with towels to help the cats feel more secure while being held for surgery and release.
