Another cutie pie that was rescued last week was Gene. He was found by one of our foster mom Chandra Walls 's brother.
Meeting this sweet boy was such a joy. Just look at that face!

She just sent me a Pic of his foot but I'm still in love with that little bottom lip. He has such a unique look about him. We don't know what happened to his mouth (could've been tossed from a car, we've seen so many dumps this year) but it doesn't effect him whatsoever eating and drinking. He's a total full on fun kitten.

He so precious and sooooo adorable 😍 welcome little Gene, we are so happy to have you!

Here is another cutie pie we rescued last week that I didn't get a chance to post/share. Her name is Reilly and she's sweet as she can be. She was found all alone in Albertville. She's adjusting well to her foster home and foster mates. She's fostered with two babies we got the week before from an abandoned building in Boaz, Misty & Fluffy. They had horrible URI's that were treated with Clindamycin and terramycin. They didn't respond well so we had to go with some stronger meds, azithromycin & ofloxacin. They're doing much better now ❤️ I think I smell a foster fail, haha 😉

After those three were rescued Sunday, guess who finds another kitten? That'd be Holleigh. She's not allowed to leave her house ever again, 🤣🤣🤣 I'm joking of course, she did a great job!
Between my finds and her finds we need a 100 acre farm, lol. She went to Walmart in Guntersville and heard the sounds of a lost scared kitten. Poor baby was crying for help but scared at the same time. As soon as Holleigh Hayes got this precious darlings, she melted right in her arms.

She had all her protocol medicines and she's now joined our two wild and crazy boys Tink & Rocco ❤️ happy happy kitties!

The day before yesterday Sunday, we had 4 new rescue babies. Three from one litter. They had no momma kitty anywhere around. The finder is 8 months pregnantb& really needed help with these babies. Two girls, one boy. These tabby kittens are sooooo stinking cute! Thank you to Valerie Hazel Maddox for fostering these amd little sherbet. The orange kitten who weighed 6oz from last week. He's getting fat now btw, lol. He's doing so good and now he has little friends his age to play with!

Yesterday started like any other day. The phone started going off before 8am. Last week in a matter of 7 days, we had fourty seven messages JUST between FB & emails. Yesterday alone we had over a dozen calls & text. It feels impossible to simply keep everyone answered but I'm trying my best!

The call that came in yesterday morning was reporting two kittens who had been dumped at the Baileyton gas station ⛽️ I loaded up with traps, carriers, and tuna then headed out. It was already crazy hot when I got there. I felt so sorry for these angels. They had such a lost disoriented look about them and the heat in the parking lot was surely taking a toll. It was already unbearable.

They had been there a couple of days according to the reporter. These two made a home inside the motor of the cashiers van. I couldn't find them until I played a Meowing sound on my phone. I could see and hear them inside the motor once the meows started sounding off from my phone.

They are definitely not used to humans and have major trust issues. We know that will soon change though 😁 They wouldn't come to me or let me get close so I resorted to using a trap. I caught them both in one trap in a few short minutes. Then customers in the store said they heard meows inside the store. I investigated, no luck but the clerk has my number. I left food out so we shall see if the food comes up eaten. If so, that baby will reunite with it's siblings ❤️

I gave baths and medicines to these frighten darlings all hissy and striking at me. Cute 😆 I noticed they have HUGE round bellies from parasites. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen any kitten in my life so full as these. One looks like he has a baseball in his tummy. He's just full as he can be of worms/parasites. He's going to feel like a brand new kitten 😸

Oh and the cleanup is going to be glorious. So much fun, I can hardly wait!

These babies also have coccidia. It's a very distinctive smell and look. Super dark grey, runny, and bloody with a gross stinch. After changing shirts twice yesterday (parasite p**p all over me) & two cat baths each later, another call comes in the middle of intake and setup for the two Baileyton kittens. It was after 10pm when I got home last night 🌙 I have so much catching up to do with the rescue babies so bare with me as I start catching up.

Does anyone have a nursing mom or can bottle feed two newborns that were found the parking lot of Sam's this morning?

Some of you know that my mom has been fighting cancer. Yesterday was a very special day! She is finally in remission. She rang the bell 🔔 at the cancer center will tears streaming down her face. Our entire family was there to support be with her for that special, unforgettable moment. Mom's battle has not been easy for her. She beat THREE cancers, yes three!

She spent 5 long weeks in the hospital upon discovering her diagnosis. She also had to have multiple surgeries to remove parts of her kidney & colon and drove to Huntsville daily for chemo treatment for 9 months.

She is such a strong person with a will like no other. We are so proud of mom for all She has done. She has so much to live for. We give our wonderful/amazing God the glory for her strength & recovery.

Mom is the og crazy cat 😆 she's the one who convinced me I could do what I'm doing now with rescue so on behalf of everyone at KITCR we honor and congratulate Cyndee Patterson Perkins for beating not one, not two, but three cancers. You go momma!!!

It was such a special & wonderful day to be our entire family yesterday to celebrate the tremendous success of this hard fought battle. Mom is the mother of four kids, two grandkids, a wife, sister, and a cat mom to many! We all love you Momma and we are so thankful for your courage & determination. You're the very best ❤️

Some of you may have seen the post on the Arab page about two cats and a dog left in a small cargo trailer. The dog was rescued pretty quickly but the two nine year old cats were still there and no answers for help. It was reported that the power had been turned off. Once the property owner heard there was animals inside, he turned it back on and gave the cats 24 hours before cutting the power back off.

At 6:30 last night I headed out with two carriers and what I walked into, I couldn't have prepared myself for. These babies were living in a tiny cargo trailer with ZERO windows. That alone would be depressing for any cat. It was so dark & the smell was wreaking through to the outside. Once I opened the door it was sheer disgust. Absolute filth & ammonia filled the air with bugs & gnats. There was enormous piles of f***s that covered the back floor where the cats stayed. F***s on top of f***s, wall to wall that had sat for so long, some piles had turned white. My camera is cracked so I have to zoom way out. You can't tell just how bad it is but trust me, it's bad. The floors were covered in trash, cloths, hair, and urine.

The cats were terrified out of their minds. I had to get on my hands and knees and then my stomach to reach and grab the grey cat. Both cats are HUGE so pulling him out was not an easy task but thankfully after a good bit of time and coaching him out, he let me scratch his chubby cheeks and then my hand wrapped around and grabbed the back of his neck. I refused to let him go despite his attempt. I was NOT leaving him in there!!

Unfortunately, I couldn't get the big black kitty. He was tucked away all the way in the back. Neighbors brought me sardines but I couldn't smell the sardines even when they were up to my face bc the trailer smelled so bad. The food didn't work, calling for him didn't work, so I left and came back with a trap. I didn't wanna leave him in there overnight so I sat in my car until 11pm and he still hadn't gone in the trap. I came back this morning and I was so over the moon happy bc he was in the trap.

Once i got him to his new home i gave him his medicines & then i stuck my hand in the carrier and he literally laid his head in my hand and rubbed his cheeks back & forth, back & forth, thanking me. He continued to be extra loving. Both kitties have such a sweet demeanor. That moment absolutely melted my heart!

This rescue mission started with a FB post made by a lady who lives in Florida. Next a super kind lady, Tana reached out & offered to cover any medicines/vetting they needed, and we ended this mission with the kind hearted, wonderful, people who opened their heart & home to two 9 year old cats. Thank yall for being apart of this rescue mission with me.

They will be well taken care of for the rest of their lives & get to breathe fresh air, run as free as the wind, and never be bound to living in a wooden box filled with utter filth & air so toxic it hurts to breathe. That life is now in the past. The second chapter of their new journey has begun. Congratulations to these beautiful and sweet kitties who deserves to live happy & be cats. These precious darlings have suffered in every way. Physically, mentally, and emotionally. If you know of animals living in conditions like these were, please report it and say something. They didn't have a choice or a voice. Be their hope and be their light!

I spoke with a lady who found a kitten in a road in Fyffe a few days ago. Her and her husband looked around and couldn't find anymore kittens or a momma cat. She told me that he isn't thriving, seeming to fade, and hasn't eaten anything in two days. She said he is refusing any food and doesn't know what to do.

I got the sweet boy yesterday, weighed him. He only weighed 6.0oz 😭 that is what a 3 day old kitten should weigh. I was guessing maybe he was three weeks just because of how tiny he is but his incisor teeth & canines are all the way in which means he's probably closer to four weeks. He should weigh 12 to 15oz so he's a bit behind but there is good news with this.

After his bath, sub Q fluids, & medicine, he ate like a champ. I had him 4 hours and he ate three times & wanted it!! He was standing all in the food doing some messy eating 😆 His little jaws have crunch/pop to them. You can really hear them popping at the end of the video.

He must of been the runt. His development tells more of his age that his size. Before I got him to his foster home last night, I weighed him again and he had already gained some. He weighed in at 6.8oz and that was after he used the bathroom #1 & #2

I think he'll be just fine. Foster mom Valerie Hazel Maddox is going to feed him every 3 to 4 hours. He's such a cutie pie & so so sweet ❤️

Happy 4th of July cat lovers!! We wish everyone a happy and safe Independence Day & weekend ❤️

Last week we had 21 intakes in a matter of 4 days. Serena the Kitty who had the head wound is recovering in one of our loving foster homes. She scratched and kicked off that huge scab so it looks way worse but it's healing as it should. She has now been spayed, yay!

We have a kitten who had some sort of accident. It appears as if he chewed on a wire. He experienced a burn inside his mouth & tongue as well as a wound on the outside of the mouth. He stayed overnight at Westside. He's healing beautifully and already eating like a warrior.

Amara's eye recovery is looking perfect! Her vision out of the remaining eye is actually seeming to improve every day. She's still getting lots of love and eye drops.

The other babies from that horrific case are all doing well too. I'm happy to share that everyone is on a great path and making progress. Twenty one more babies in 4 days! Whew, that's a lot of cuteness, that's a lot of love, and that's also a lot of food, litter, and medicines. Thank you all for your love & support ❤️ we need it!! ❤️

Fosters needed!! Can anyone foster short or long term, please let me know 😁

We can use your help.

Another rescue mission was underway today. What is it with so many babies this past week with horrible eyes 😭

Please if you have kittens outside somewhere and they have icky green goop, please get them some medicine. They will lose their vision, sometimes in both eyes. That is a permanent life altering change you can make for them.

This one has scaring on her cornea from infection. It has not developed an ulcer yet. She can see and her vision will now be saved in the other eye but her right eye unfortunately is completely gone.

Ah she is sooooo sweet! She sat so still and sweet in my lap the entire ride. She's already full of love and at her foster mom Amy's house now.

Thankfully we are good on litter but we need kitten food, lots of kitten food right now. I'll share our Amazon wish. Fancy feast kitten pate is our preferred canned kitten food. Any help is greatly appreciated 👏

Our little road side babies are doing great! One of our foster moms Leah Hollaway reached out & said her friend just found a kitten all alone on the side of the road & didn't know what to do. She has a little skinned place on her bottom lip, dirty with fleas, and a minor broken tail but seems great otherwise. She's enjoying yummy chicken & lots of loves with Amara ❤️

Our second little baby was found on the side of the road in Albertville. While our other volunteer Holleigh Hayes was at PetSmart shopping for litter (right before closing tonight) in comes a lady who just found this kitten on the side of the road. No physical bumps or bruises just the usual fleas, underweight, & dirty. Nothing we can't fix!

What are the odds, both babies were on the side of the road in completely different areas, close to the same age (maybe a week or two apart) and look so much alike 😆 I'm sure they're gonna be great friends.
