We picked Pewter up in late January after his caregiver called and asked if we could take him.

Pewter had a horrible URI and was very emaciated. It took weeks to get him healthy.

He landed with an awesome foster family who spent a lot of time getting him back and forth to vet visits. In the process they fell in love with this little fellow and just let us know they want to add him to their family.

We couldn't be happier for Pewter and his new family!

We trapped Merle at a community cat colony about a month ago. We decided to take a chance on him and held onto him to see if he was friendly at all.

He turned out to be the sweetest teddy bear.

He went off to foster and we just got the best news! Merle's foster mom, Janet, couldn't let this sweet, handsome, goofball go and is adopting him!

We are beyond thrilled for him and his new life with his new mom!

This beautiful, sweet girl is Teeter. We trapped her at a community cat colony in Candler.

Teeter has a moderate-to-severe case of cerebellar hypoplasia (CH). We were afraid she would be easy pickings for a predator so we held onto her instead of releasing her back.

Turns out she's the sweetest little cat. Not feral at all.

Today, she moved to a foster home but we would love to find this pretty young lady a permanent home with someone who understands and appreciates CH cats.

If that's you, please fill out our adoption application at sisterkitten.org

Please share to help Teeter find her perfect home!

Matilda was discharged from South Asheville Veterinary Emergency & Specialty today and transferred to Asheville Veterinary Associates West to continue her recovery from her diaphragmatic hernia surgery.

She's still very fragile but improving and on awesome pain meds.

Another day, another injured community cat.

This fellow has been frequenting a porch in Mills River for some time and recently showed up with an injured back end.

We thought perhaps from a car engine but thankfully it was just a few bite wounds to the tail.

Today, Dr. Goff treated his injured tail and got him neutered and vaccinated.

On Monday, we started and finished a 12 cat project in Buncombe County. It's pretty damn unusual to start and finish a project of this size in a single day. Thank you to cooperative caregivers and cooperative cats!

Gomez and Wednesday were rescued at two weeks old by workers who were clearing a debris pile in Swannanoa after Hurricane Helene.

They just got adopted together into a wonderful family!

You can see the video of their incredible rescue here:

Last week we got a call about this pretty little gal at a community cat colony in Bryson City.

She stopped using her back left leg and her caregiver was afraid she'd broken it. She had a really bad wound on the leg with a bad "smell", according to her caregiver.

It turned out to be a bad abscess. Abscesses can be so painful for cats that they will hobble around on three legs not using the one with the abscess. It can look like a broken leg. This is one of the most common calls about injured community cats that we receive.

This gal definitely needed a trip to the vet because her abscess had necrotic tissue requiring a drain tube to be placed.

Thank you to Dr. Lord at Asheville Veterinary Associates West for taking such good care of this baby.

She's a very sweet cat and young, 6-8 months, just shy. We're going to work getting her completely better and she'll be available for adoption soon. We named her Randi.

Fill out an adoption application for this sweet girl at sisterkitten.org.

Matilda had her surgery this morning to fix her diaphragmatic hernia.

Her surgeon reports that 90% of Matilda's intestines were in her chest pressing on her lungs. He liver was also in her chest. Her injury was from trauma and she could've been kicked by someone at some point or possibly hit by a car.

It was a monster surgery and she's resting tonight at SAVES. She's not out of the woods but holding steady.

Thank you to EVERYONE who donated to help her.

We'll keep you updated on her progress.

Got ourselves a twofer here.

These were some hungry kitties. We're always grateful when the caregivers follow our instructions and don't feed prior to trapping.
