A little Chester update!!!

Chester has been with us for about 12 days and in that time his energy seems to have improved, his hearing seems better, and he definitely has gained some weight!

With him feeling better, he was getting less and less content with crate life so my friend Heather that I met through fostering and fosters through the humane society near where she lives offered to give him a place to stay for a while in her finished basement!

So last night he settled in and she’s already messaged me to tell me how he’s already used the cat tree and is so very loving and wants all the pets! We’re still looking for either a rescue or a forever home for Chester when he gets the all clear from the vet for at his next bloodwork screening in 2-4 weeks 🧡

I’ll be keeping everyone updated and still will be making sure Chester gets what he needs medically. We’re so glad he’s feeling better and also so thrilled he now has more room inside to be even more comfortable. Also, a huge thank you to all the people to have donated for him, reached out to see how they could help, and just all around love him from afar. This foster community is so special and I’m thankful for all of you!!

‼️SEARCHING FOR A RESCUE PLACEMENT‼️

This is Marmalade. A Good Samaritan reached out about him a few weeks ago concerned about a wound on his shoulder and how very thin he is. We were able to snag a last minute appointment at a clinic in the last week of October where he was partially vetted and discovered to be neutered, but not chipped. He’s been posted with no one coming forward to say he’s a lost pet.

By the vet’s determination, he’s about 7 years old and at this point we’re thinking he was abandoned. He’s been living outside while we have worked to try and find a placement for him with absolutely no luck.

Marmalade went to another vet yesterday where he had bloodwork to determine if he’s so thin because of thyroid issues or if he’s just need starving outside for who knows how long. The vet also determined his shoulder wound is infected and he has an upper respiratory infection. So he’s now on antibiotics which will be given twice a day by his current caretaker.

The vet also said his ears have either been very sunburnt or are frostbitten, but either way we are desperately searching for a way to get Marmalade out of the elements into a rescue placement. He’s so sweet and friendly and really deserves to be inside by Christmas!

Marmalade needs help and we do, too! Please share this and reach out if you have any leads for a rescue that could take him in! 🧡

Post subcutaneous fluids and meds. Our little Biscuits seems to be feeling much better today. Her weight is up almost 100g since her vet visit, her appetite is improving, and she’s feeling more playful. Let’s keep it going, Biscuits! 🧡

Can you fall more in love with your husband from one picture? I think I can ❤️

Last night I called Sean (who was on another rescue related errand) to tell him the news from the vet and relay the choice the vet had asked me to make…did we want to euthanize or provide supportive care?

I cried to him and said “How could we ever choose to euthanize a kitten that was making biscuits on the drive here?” Sean responded simply with “We don’t. We bring her home and do everything we can to hopefully help her survive this” Absolutely no hesitation, even with the possibility that we could be signing ourselves up for some really hard days and potential heartbreak.

He really is a rock and Biscuits could not possibly have a more dedicated, compassionate, and loving foster dad.

Not the best holiday weekend over here

We’re calling our new little gal Biscuits because 24/7 she is kneading and making biscuits. Truly the sweetest little soul.

Her appetite has been lower than I would like the entire time she’s been with us, but nothing is really seemed off with her other than that. Last night we took her temperature and it was high. Ironically, I also had a fever so the last thing I wanted to do with go to the urgent care vet but this is what kitten fostering looks like.

So with our matching fevers, we went to the vet together and Biscuits truly charmed all the vet staff. They said she was playing with q tips in the back and not acting sick at all despite having a fever. The vet wanted to go ahead and do a combo test and SNAP test to rule out panleuk and to the surprise of the vet and to us Biscuits snap test came back positive for panleukopenia.

This is genuinely some of the scariest news a kitten foster can get. Panleuk is so deadly and so now we’re taking things one day at a time with Biscuits while giving her all the supportive care we can.

Big thank you to for letting me bother her on the weekend with questions of what to do and getting bags of meds and supplies ready for me to help get Biscuits through this.

We’re trying to be hopeful while also realistic over here. We might not be making as many posts while we’re handling things on this end. Please send Biscuits all the very best vibes and we’re hoping for the best possible outcome for her.

Biscuits fever went down today and her appetite has been a bit better so we’re hoping things will just get better one day at a time 🧡

Sean’s work view might be better than mine 😭 but no I’m not jealous that he works from home. Not at all!

Do we think my cats might want their dinner? For context, they get fed in the room at the top of the stairs 😂

The pure joy you get from a cat using the area you specifically put together (cat cube plus a cat bed in it) is unmatched. Happy Caturday from Kanga!

A post bath Rosie! Her shampoo makes her look pretty red and it usually looks back to “normal” by the next day!
