Thought I’d share a little Marshmallow update, he’s thriving😊 his cytology came back from the peculiar lump on his neck and it was likely residual to his URI he came in with OR trauma from a bite. Nonetheless he’s a little warrior and it cleared up with an antibiotic❤️ he’s still developmentally a little behind his two litter mates but he’s learning! He doesn’t like jumping off things himself and demands to be carried but I’m not mad at it lol here’s to little Marshall’s progress!🎉

*He will be ready to go home in 3 weeks. We are in no rush and really want to focus on finding the right home for him. He’s incredible and deserves to be loved and cherished to the fullest.*

Thank you for all your support to help us help him on his beautiful journey🙏🏽

Update: reserved for adoption!❤️

Meet Kentaro! This sweetheart is 4.5 months old and has had an incredible journey making his way from Kuwait to the United States to find his forever family! He is extremely friendly and very playful! He does great with other cats and dogs! His ideal home would have another friendly cat in it to play with! He is a total lap cat as well!!!

He is litter box trained, felv/fiv negative, neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, flea treated and dewormed.

If interested in loving him forever please apply at:

*On occasion we help some of our international rescue friends who go to extreme measures to save cats from desperate and deplorable situations. Our one connection in Kuwait is overwhelmed with extreme debt from medical cases and in need of placing some cats that have just been waiting and waiting so we’ve agreed to pull 4 at this time. Kentaro is one of those lucky 4!!!*

Zephyr is still looking for a forever home to call his own!!🥹 he is such a sweetheart, full of love, life and loves to play!! He would love a home with another friendly cat to be able to play and cuddle up with!!❤️

He was born with a birth deformity where his spine didn’t fully develop leaving his lower half paralyzed. It doesn’t slow him down at all though!! (Video in comments)! He does need to be expressed 2-3 times a day but it’s very manageable. If you have more questions please reach out we’re more than happy to answer them!

We’re opening adoption applications for Hershey & Graham!❤️ We preface with these babies won’t be able to go home until September 6 after they’re spayed and neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, etc but they are getting all of their most crucial socialization in now with their littermates and meeting new cats and dogs in their foster home!

These two are absolutely best friends and wrestle and play all day. They’d be wonderful as a pair or else must go home to another friendly cat to play with!🥹

They are also extremely loving and confident. They crawl right into our laps as soon as we sit down. They are complete cuddle bugs. We can’t say enough good things about them❤️

Graham is the grey male, Hershey is brown female.

The time has come to begin searching for Zephyr’s forever family!!! He is a very special kitten so please help us share him to find his people🧡
He is the sweetest little orange boy who loves to play and nothing can slow him down. Not even his birth defect! Zephyr was born with his back legs paralyzed due to his spine not being formed entirely. He is in no pain and lives a very happy life thanks to the care of our veterinarian fostering him!

*his special needs including being stimulated to p*e and he will need diaper changes as he can’t control his bowel movements*
His condition is very manageable once someone gets the hang of it. We are looking for a very loving and responsible family to give him the love and care he needs. He deserves a beautiful life. He is cat and dog friendly!!! He loves the other kitties in foster.

Videos of him in action will be in the comments!! Please apply below and message us if you have any questions. We will be very committed to helping any adopter who chooses this special little boy.

No power, no problem! The babies are just charging up on cuddles instead🥹❤️

08/06/2024

As you may know, we on occasion help with international friends who go to extreme measures to save cats from desperate and deplorable situations. Our one connection in Kuwait is overwhelmed with extreme debt from medical cases and in need of placing some cats that have just been waiting and waiting so we’ve agreed to pull 3 at this time.

💫 Theyre fully vetted and all cat AND dog friendly!!!

Their flight will be arriving on August 31st.

We don’t have much space ourselves at this time so we’d love to find foster to adopt homes for them once they arrive. (Even though they’re already vetted we still do a basic wellness check upon arrival as well as our own FeLV/fiv testing, dewormer, flea prevention and anything else our vet recommends).

If interested in foster to adopt please apply below! Thank you so much❤️

Autumn & Peanut have arrived at last🥺 they’re both very sweet and friendly despite it all! Our hopes are to get their eyes turned around asap so they can get vetted and find their forever families since they’re big enough to be adopted🧡

08/02/2024

We present to you… smol but mighty! Marshmallow hits the gym on Friday nights. 💪🏼

08/01/2024

Two more intakes going to the vet first thing tomorrow, Autumn and Peanut!! Eyes are always an emergency. The sooner they’re treated the sooner they have the potential to be fixed and keep their vision. 🙏🏽

As always, any amount is truly truly appreciated!!! Venmo/paypal: EmpathyForAnimals

Thank you, send the babies some love❤️

Hi! Friendly reminder as we don’t want to waste anyone’s time while seeking help. We primarily focus on urgent medical and special need cat rescue. We are not a TNR group, we do not take neonatal bottle babies and we do not take owner surrenders. We work full time jobs and volunteer fostering out of our homes while getting our fosters fully vetted and ready for their forever families. We try our best to help how we can❤️

Thank you for those that continue to support our efforts!!! Speaking of which, these will be our newest intakes this week in much need of some TLC 🥺

If you’re able to help with their veterinary care we’d be very very grateful to keep helping those who truly need it.

Venmo/paypal: EmpathyForAnimals

Stay tuned for their glow up❣️
Marshmallow, Graham, Hershey

Thank you ❤️

I mean wow. Can we just appreciate how incredible this is to see Captain Jack warming up to his foster mom!! He went from scared and unsure in our local humane society to this sweet boy asking for attention and love from his foster mom after she gained his trust! Please give a chance to the shy guys. Their love is always worth it! And he loves other felines company which is a bonus!! If interested in adopting this angel please apply at empathyforanimalsrescue.org/adopt

Lathyrus and Petunia would desperately love a home of their own. They’re currently growing up in foster care and deserve a place they can call home. Both kittens are around 4 months old and are fully vetted and ready to go home. They may come off as timid at first but once they warm up they’ll be your best friend🖤 they are both very playful and love being petted. Black Panthers are absolutely the best. Another cat or kitten at the home is a requirement and respectful children. Please give them a share🙏🏻 https://www.empathyforanimalsrescue.org/adopt

Just my little black panthers searching for their forever homes🐈‍⬛ Petunia(F) and Lathyrus(M) would love a place to call home. They’d love to grow up with another cat or kitten at the house. Both kittens are so extremely affectionate once they get to know you (which only took about a day for me😂). Their preference is to love all over you while head butting for pets. Their engines are always purring and Lathyrus’s biscuits are perfection😉 They just turned 4 months old and are fully vetted(Felv/Fiv neg, vaxxed, microchipped, dewormed, flea/tick treated) and ready for their forever home. Please give the babies a share🙏🏻 https://www.empathyforanimalsrescue.org/adopt

My 2 last kittens looking for forever homes. Lathyrus is an all black neutered male 4 month old baby and Petunia is an all black with a little white patch on her chest female 4 month old kitten. They both have very loving,calm personalities and would do well in a home together or with another cat. They are both Felv/FIV negative, fully vetted including all shots, microchipped, dewormed, and flea and tick treated. All these two wanna do is play, purr, and be loved. They’re purrfect🐈‍⬛ Please give them a share❤️ https://www.empathyforanimalsrescue.org/adopt
