If anyone is looking for a good option to allow your kitties outdoors but still keep them home safe, one of our volunteers who recently moved just did this for their cats, and so far 2 months out it is working great at keeping the kitties in the back yard safe from cars and predators, but still allows them that free time outdoors playing and lounging in the sun and chasing bugs. There are more expensive cat fencing options out there that probably also work great based on our volunteers experience with this less expensive DIY version, but along with a catio this is another great option. Just reccomend supervising time outside at first until you can make sure all escape rouyes have been closed off.

Again, great ideas to locate a lost cat, but please NO LITTERBOX outside to attract predators or unaltered outdoor cats to scare the lost cat!

Life saving advice, Make sure they are warm before feeding!

Rescuers in the Bronx shared important information everyone should know about feeding newborn kittens. The information could easily save kitten's lives and other animals too. Did you know that sometimes offering food to a newborn kitten could be deadly? Hint: they need warmth first! It started when....

Hey Folks, So we need to have a little chat about not just dropping off kittens without notifying or better yet asking if it is OK to do so before doing it. This is not the first time we have had issues at the rescue of finding cats/ kittens just dropped off on the doorstep or much worse somewhere else around the property where they may not be discovered for hours or even days. Yesterday afternoon, a plastic tote was found way back on the side of Gloria's personal house, between her house and her daughters that contained 3 very young tabby kittens in it. We have no idea when it was dropped off, just that it wasn't there the previous day when they had mowed the lawn. Gloria's daughter found the box but by the time she had found it one of the kittens had already died, and rigor set in. Gloria and volunteers are currently working hard to save the other two despite not really having the room at the rescue to do so at the moment. If you are in need we will do the best we can to help including helping you help them yourselves and providing supplies. But just leaving them without telling someone is not only illegal but it is also extremely dangerous to the cat/ kittens involved. Kittens can't control their own body temp until they are 3-4 weeks old and can easily be susceptible to hypothermia from a cold night or hyperthermia if the box is left in the sun. They also do not have large fat reserves and can become hypoglycemic very easily if not fed regularly enough. They can be tough to care for even when they come in relatively healthy to begin with but its even trickier to bring them back once they start to go downhill. Please for our sakes and the kittens sakes don't just drop them off without notifying someone! ( Picture for attention since I don't yet have a picture of the kittens that were dumped yesterday)

Update: little sharkbait is on the mend and seems to be recovering well. He was even playing with his foster brothers tonight. So good to see him feeling better. Thank you Karla for providing the oxygen concentraitor, you are a life saver!

Hey folks, I have a kitten right now with a severe respiratory infection he's fighting. Has been on antibiotics for 2 days now but needs time for his body to fight off the infection. In the mean time he's working pretty hard to breath. Does anyone happen to have an oxygen concentrator that they no longer need that they might want to donate to the rescue or that we might be able to buy? We don't need this kind of thing often at the rescue but it would be really nice to have available for when we do need it.

On , we're sharing a few important reminders on the importance of microchips - such as:

➡ 1 in 3 family pets will get lost
➡ Microchipped dogs are more than twice as likely to be returned to their owners and microchipped cats are more than 20 times as likely to be returned to their owners

And remember - while microchips greatly increase the chances that pets will be reunited with their families if they are lost or stolen…a microchip only works if its registration information is accurate.

Visit avma.org/CheckTheChip to learn more.
