Bitten By A Kitten Rescue

Jamie here! Today, two more kitties were placed with another rescue! Thank you to to Gina and Lydia for taking these two on! Only a few more days left in so many kitties need placement. If anyone is in the East Bay Area, CA and able to help, please send me a direct message! Thank you!

Casey and Holly were brought to me when they were 8 weeks old. I was told that they were two weeks old and “learning how to walk.” The moment I heard the person over the phone say that they were learning how to walk. I knew that they had CH. I just felt it in my gut. Once I saw them, my suspicions were confirmed. They were hopping around like a little jumping beans in the carrier they came in and they were suffering from severe parasite overload. After three months of going through several rounds of treatment parasites, several months of physical therapy to help them walk strengthen their coordination, they were parasite free and wobbling around like little champs. These two were part of the reason why I was opening cat sanctuary. I have a deep love for special needs Kitties and I always wanted to be able to provide a space for which I did for time. Sadly, as many of you all know, the Rescue is closing, and I am currently working on getting every cat in the rescue place with either permanent homes or other rescues. Today, Casey and Holly went on to a foster to adopt him. Huge thank you to my volunteer, Pat for coming along and helping me get them placed!

Jamie here! Yesterday was a bittersweet day for me! Nutmeg (AKA bat cat/lips) and Grace, a cat that was one of my own, were placed in forever homes. Sadly with the Rescue closing, I do have a couple of cats that are my own that stayed at the Rescue because I can only have two at home. The two I’ve kept are my two senior kitties. They are both 18 years old and I would never make them leave their home. However, this does mean that I have to rehome the cats that are mine that have been living at the sanctuary space. This includes Grace. As heartbreaking as this decision was, I know that it’s for the best for everyone involved.

meanwhile, as I’ve mentioned before, the Rescue is doing a donation based adoptions meaning, there are some people that really aren’t even paying anything at all to adopt. Yes, I’m being careful as to who I adopted too, however, this also means that we are not able to recover a lot of the funding that we put out for the medical needs of these cats. The Rescue is in serious need of funding in order to finish out our time here in the building and to cover the remaining medical expenses that have incurred. If you are able to, please consider making a tax deductible donation to help us during this last month here. The donation links are in my bio. If you are on Instagram, they are at the end of this post on Facebook. Thank you so much! https://linktr.ee/bittenbyakitten

Well, that was probably the fastest emergency vet visit I’ve ever dealt with, but thankfully the team at was able to get Casey in right away, and found that she had a vaccine reaction. This is very rare, however, with the fact that she has CH, anything like this can become very complicated very quickly with her. They did a quick ultrasound to make sure that her gut was not affected in anyway and sent her home with fluids, and two different meds to help her recover.

Tonight‘s visit was $470. To make a tax deductible donation towards the cost of this visit, you can go to the link in my bio (on IG/ at the end of this post on fb). I really appreciate everyone for your support! This means so much especially with having to close the Rescue, knowing that you all have been a continued support to these little ones ❤️ https://linktr.ee/bittenbyakitten

🚨URGENT!!! 🚨 Jamie here! I am headed to the ER with Casey! This afternoon, she started yelling very loudly, and she’s not able to get up and walk. She does have cerebellar hypoplasia, however, she is normally able to walk around and play. As of this evening she has been laying on her side, crying, and not able to walk.

Right now, as a rescue is closing, I do not have the funding to cover this whatsoever. Please consider making a tax deductible donation by going to the link tree link in my bio on Instagram or at the end of this post on Facebook. https://linktr.ee/bittenbyakitten

Jamie here and I wanted to give a HUGE thank you to Dr. Purcell and Alex from for coming by the rescue this evening to update several kitties on their vaccines and deworming so they can be placed in forever homes and rescues. As of now, we only have a little over a week to place over 50 Cats and Kittens. If you’re in the East Bay area California and looking to adopt or Foster, or if you are a Rescue that can help please send me a direct message! This is absolutely urgent!

Jamie here! I just said goodbye to little Rico and mama Rosa! Big thank you to Norma and her friend for taking them this evening! They are now safe and sound, getting prepared to live their best lives! Rosa will be returned home to her colony once she is fixed, and Rico will be up for adoption Once he is old enough.

As I’ve mentioned in previous post, I’m doing one final fundraiser to help us cover our lingering medical expenses and to help care for the Kitties for the last few weeks that they will be here. If you can and are able to, please consider making a tax deductible donation by going to the Link tree Link in my bio where all of our donation links are located! Thank you to everyone who has supported this Rescue over the years! Any on all fundraising raised during this time will go towards taking care of the lingering medical expenses, caring for the kitties that are here for the next few weeks until they’re gone, and covering any veterinary expenses for people still fostering kitties under the rescue. The link to donate is in my bio on Instagram and at the end of this post on Facebook! Thank you! https://linktr.ee/bittenbyakitten

I just said goodbye to two of my own cats that were staying at the sanctuary space. Chevelle and Kenobe went off to a foster, and I am extremely grateful that they’re in such great hands! This whole situation is incredibly heartbreaking, but I know it’s all for the best!

Jamie here! I want to give a big thank you to for taking on three cats from the rescue to help us prepare to close! Today they took Wednesday, Pugsley, and Eclipse, where they will be prepared for introduction into their cat room and hopefully soon will be adopted. Again, BITTEN BY A KITTEN RESCUE is closing, and we are in desperate need of other rescues to take on some of these guys as well as adopters! If you are a Rescue or a potential adopter in the East Bay Area, CA and can help out, please send me a direct message! Thank you!
