Ghost had his 7th FIP treatment today and is feeling pretty good. Keep up the good work baby Ghost, everyone is rooting for you. 🧡🤍
Although our intake is currently closed, we do keep an emergency isolation crate ready and try to make room if we are contacted by another organization in need. Lebanon County Community Cats reached out about this tiny little guy, with no momma in sight, on this past wet and cold weekend. They scooped him up, organized transport, and he is now safe and warm with a full belly! Meet Moose! 🫎 💙 Thank you Mark for your collaboration!
This 5-6 week old baby boy is being treated for an eye infection and possible URI, and flea/tick infestation. (And after 2 baths and picking off at least 30 deer ticks, he is much more comfortable!). He will not be ready for adoption until likely Thanksgiving time, so please no inquiries at this time.
Let’s welcome Merida to our program!
My husband has a habit of finding kittens along side the road and trying to save them 😂. Lucky for him and the kitties that they find themselves into our program when this happens. Momma Merida found her way to us Thursday evening when my husband saw her running in the road near rt. 322. He stopped traffic and scooped her up, realizing very quickly that she was not only extremely sweet, but very tiny and pregnant.
We were able to get her into a spay appt. very quickly, thankfully, and she is now recovering and seems VERY happy to not be forced into motherhood. And this also gives us a great opportunity to educate our followers on why spay/abort is SO important. Merida was only 4.3 pounds prior to spay. She was pregnant with 4 kittens, which is alot for her tiny body. The vet team shared with us after surgery that because she is so young and tiny she was at high risk for a premature birth and may have had life threatening complications during delivery (flashback to momma Biscuit!). And now she gets to recover and find the best home as an indoor only kitty when she is ready.
Merida is the SWEETEST tortie girl. She was licking my face/giving kisses 3 seconds after I pulled her out of the carrier. All I have to do is make eye contact with her and she starts to purrr, ask for pets, and make biscuits. She will need to complete her 2 week quarantine and heal, but after that she will be ready for her very own family!
The Kitten Sanctuary bottle baby foster Maia is asking to see the manager. Clearly she is starved and Kristen takes way too long to mix formula 😂😩
Poor little Leia, who had a bowel obstruction before she came to us, is struggling again to 💩. She’s seeing Dr. Diane tomorrow, but in the mean time, enemas, fluids, and miralax oh my!
I like to share these videos for education on just how hands on (and educated) our volunteers are with kitten care. Many do not realize how medically intense rescue efforts can be.
📣 DISCLAIMER: Please do NOT attempt this at home without the proper training and guidance from a vet. We are very lucky to have a trained vet tech and very involved vet team! 📣

It was shot night for the tea litter!
I REALLY thought these little ones would be exhausted from PetaPalooza today but apparently not! The torts are super close (about 3-5oz) to hitting their target weight for spay and will likely be ready for adoption in the next few weeks!
The Chicago pd litter is a whole bunch of purr bugs
