This little girl and her three brothers were born today. Welcome to the world little one. 😻 rescue.com/donate #AnimalWelfareMatters #hancockcountyindiana #spayneutersaveslives
Momma left me behind when she was startled and never has a chance to even clean me up, leaving me wet and cold. My siblings are someplace else now and I am safe and warm. My finders are watching for momma. #animalwelfare #kittenseason2024 #hancockcountyindiana
What keeps you up at night? During kitten season, it is fur balls for us.
This little guy was found in a round bale where his mom left him and 2 siblings in the cold. Unfortunately, one passed shortly after being found, and a second passed late Saturday.
Born premature, they are unable to suck/swallow properly and can easily aspirate. Being tube fed pedialyte and half strength formula for several feedings after arrival helped to restore his hydration and flush his gut from 'milk' that was fed to him before arriving here at the Biscuit Factory. While he still has a long way to go, he is meeting his milestones and we are hopeful that he will survive. However, we do not know what damage was caused from being cold or how long he was cold. We are thinking of strong names for him, but until we settle on a name, here he is with the hiccups. 71 grams on arrival, 92 grams this morning; now at a proper weight for being born.
Zelda is bathing Affogato making sure she is putting her best meow forward!!!! Adopt!!! At Tractor Supply in Greenfield till 1pm and Specks in Greenfield from 3-5pm today.
Sox is anxiously awaiting her forever home. #hancockcountyindiana #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #adoptdontshop
FIP Friday!
Cheddar and McSteamy are play buddies. We are not sure it is because they both were very sick or what, but they always gravitate to each other in play. McSteamy continues in his observation period and Cheddar is finishing up his 12th week of treatment this week. Next week we will send out some blood for testing to ensure that his bloodwork has returned to normal or if we need to continue treatment for another 4 wks then retest again.
by all signs he is a healthy boy.

Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), was once a death sentence, now we have a chance to save them. Then meds are very expensive, but how could we deny them. McSteamy finished treatment this week and is now in the 12 week observation phase. Cheddar is 2/3 the way through treatment, but now we have another cat who now has FIP. please consider donating $5 today to help defray the cost of treatment - bfrescue.com/donate. visit www.fipvetguide.com for more information. #rescuefavoritebreed #AnimalWelfareMatters #animalwelfare #fip #spayandneuteryourpets
Before anyone panics! We had phone in one hand videoing and a spray bottle in the other on case the play escalated. Cocoa is visually impaired and Sky has separation anxiety. Sky loves cats and Cocoa loves Sky. Bfrescue.com/adopt #adoptdontshop #rescuedogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #animalwelfare
FIP Friday.
The boys continue to improve and are more and more active. We do find it a bit interesting that they have gravitated to each other. They are similar in age, but are from different litters. Please like and share.
Consider donating to help defray the cost of their treatment.

Due to tonights weather event, we are cancelling our TSC Adoption event in the morning, but we will still be at Speck's in Greenfield from 3pm to 5pm tomorrow. Come see us there!
FIP Friday!
Cheddar and McSteamy are doing very well on their treatments.
Cheddar is more than halfway through his 12 wks of treatments and we will be drawing blood soon to check his response.
McSteamy's 12 wk labs revealed that he was still showing markers for FIP; so we opted to continue his treatment for 4 more weeks and retest, and we will be doing that soon.
Their treatment is not inexpensive, nor is it FDA approved, so this is cutting into our savings. Savings that we hoped would fund a facility in the future. We have had other unexpected medical expenses in the 4 months since McSteamy's diagnosis, and we want to thank our Foser homes, our followers and donors for helping us with saving these guys lives!
Someday, these meds will be FDA approved for cats and the cost will come down, but until then we will fight for these guys and show that FIP can be cured if the needed meds can be started early.

So, how is Sky with cats? In the last post, we mentioned she pays them no mind. But today she is showing them more attention, but is respectful of their No! Some of our doggier cats are very interested in her and wanting to play with her.
Cocoa wants to keep her, but we told Cocoa that she has to have her own home before she can have a puppy.
