𝐌𝐬. 𝐏𝐚𝐲𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠... 💔

Almost 10 years old, Ms. Payton (Ms. P) has already lost more than any cat ever should. She came to us after the only human she had ever known — ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑏𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑓𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑑, ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑠𝑎𝑓𝑒 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒, ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑤ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 — passed away. One day her home was filled with love and familiarity, and the next, it was gone. She doesn't understand why her person never came back. 😿

She’s been waiting 𝟐𝟔𝟕 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 for someone new to love her. Two hundred and sixty-seven long days of watching others find their happy endings while hers still hasn’t come. She’s seen so many cats come and go: the kittens, the young adults, even the shy ones who finally find their courage just in time to be chosen. Every time a carrier closes, and another cat goes home, Ms. P watches quietly from her spot, as if wondering, “𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒊𝒕 𝒃𝒆 𝒎𝒚 𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒏?”

Ms. P may be close to senior age, but her heart and spirit are anything but old. 🌟 She is spunky, playful, and still loves to bat at toys and explore her surroundings. She’s also a wonderful conversationalist — she 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒔 to talk! She’ll chirp and meow back when you speak to her, like she has so much to tell you about her day. She adores people and does well with other cats after a proper introduction. 🐱💞

Ms. Payton has feline asthma, but don’t let that scare you — it’s controlled with a low-cost medication and doesn’t stop her from living a happy, active life. She takes Prednisolone every other day and if she ever has a flare-up, her medication is simply adjusted to daily until she’s back to normal. With this easy routine, she’s able to enjoy her days just like any other cat.

Through it all, Ms. P has remained gentle and hopeful, greeting everyone with soft eyes and a little spark of love that refuses to fade. She has been waiting too long for her second chance — to curl up beside someone again, to hear a familiar voice say her name with love. She’s been patient long enough.

Please share and help Ms. Payton find the 𝑯𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒚 𝑭𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝑨𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒓 that she deserves. ❤🐾

🚨 URGENT PLEA: Our Transport Van Broke Down! 🚨

This past Sunday, our worst-case scenario happened. 🚐💔 Our vital transport van broke down... the day before a clinic where 20 pet owners were counting on us. 😔

We are facing a massive, unexpected repair bill of $4,000. The only thing great on it right now is the tires! We need new ball bearings, a fuel injector, and a transmission control module. We knew when we got the van it would eventually need about $3,500 in work—we just prayed we had more time. ⏳

We had a miracle this week. 🙏 A huge thank you to the Millers and the Gregorys who loaned us their vehicles to get the job done! But this isn't sustainable. Using two personal vehicles isn't safe or practical for our clinics long-term.

This is our reality: If we can't raise the money for these repairs, we will be forced to STOP our clinics. 🛑 This would be an absolute tragedy. We had such big plans for 2026—increasing our allotment, adding more runs, and even scheduling new pick-up locations to the south to help more families! 🗺️

We can't wait for Giving Tuesday. We're asking now because this is entirely out of our control. We always try to manage and pay out-of-pocket, but this is too big for us. 💔

Thank you to everyone who supports us. It's no lie—80% of a nonprofit's donations come from 20% of its supporters. We see you. We know who gives, over and over again, to every single ask. To those blessed with the ability to help... THANK YOU for choosing us. In a world full of worthy causes, we truly VALUE your decision to support our mission. ❤️

If you can help, please donate towards fixing our van. It's a 15-year-old Town & Country that has been a warrior for us, and with your help, it can be back on the road saving lives!

💝 Donate via PayPal: paypal.me/comocritters
🌐 Donate via Our Website: comocritters.org

We also have merch for sale, you can support us that way as all of our items are DONATED and all sales go back to the care of kitties, 100%! www.comocritters.org/shop

Or you can participate in our monthly raffle! https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/como-critters-november-5050-raffle

There are so many ways you can help, if you can, please do...we REALLY want to keep clinics running for our community. If you can't this time, PLEASE share this post!! You never know who may see it and help!

🙏 A SPECIAL ASK: Are you a mechanic looking for an end-of-year tax write-off? WOW. We would be eternally grateful to be the recipient of that incredibly generous gift! Please, reach out to us directly!

Alternatively... if you have a running van, you'd like to donate... we wouldn't say no! 😉

Please, help us keep our mission moving. If we succeed in fixing or finding new transport, we will celebrate THREE YEARS of servicing the Walworth County and surrounding areas with low-cost spay and neuter clinics. The ONLY organization in the county offering these vital services.

In our three years of doing clinics, we have spayed and neutered over 1000 animals!! Imagine the impact on potential offspring not suffering with overpopulation and homelessness! 🐾
