Frankie's Fund For Feline Care and Rescue

02/14/2025

This wasn’t the update I was hoping for. Unfortunately Mauve was much sicker than we believed. Not only had her mammary tumors ruptured but after taking X-rays we discover 2 large masses in her chest and an enlarged liver that was pushing her stomach into her spine. I had hoped to at least put her in a hospice situation but the vets and I didn’t think it was fair to her. She was surrounded by love at the end. It’s all we can hope for.

*** SAFE Frankie's Fund for Feline Care & Rescue - 02/13/2025! PLEASE PAY YOUR PLEDGES OR MAKE YOUR DONATION TO THIS WONDERFUL RESCUE STAT, SHE IS GOING TO NEED MAJOR MEDICAL, WITH NO GUARANTEED OF A HAPPY OUTCOME, BUT THIS IS HER ONE SHOT - MEW! ***

Behavior History
Behavior Assessment

KNOWN HISTORY:: Speedy was brought in with limited information on his behavior history in a home environment.

ACTIVITY LEVEL:: Moderate

VOCAL:: Quiet

CHARACTER TYPE: : Social,Calm,Sweet,Curious

POTENTIAL CHALLENGES:: Other

Potential challenges comments:: Speedy is a senior cat with diabetes mellitus. He needs a quiet home and out-patient management with a local veterinarian to manage his condition.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION: : Level 1

BEHAVIOR SUMMARY:: Speedy is a social, calm, and sweet senior gentleman. He was at the front of the kennel sitting up with a soft body and eyes. When spoken to and opening the door, he hovers over the front edge of the kennel entrance and welcomes petting on the head. He leans in for cheek rubs and raises his hips and tail in the air when stroking his body. During pick up, he is calm and relaxed when held for 5 seconds. After placing him back down, he continues to appreciate more petting and cheek rubs at the front. At the end of the interaction, he reaches his paw through the door to solicit more attention.

Speedy interacts with the assessor, solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. This cat is suitable for any level of adopter experience who is able to provide quiet home and out-patient management with a local veterinarian to manage his medical condition.

* PLEASE NOTE * KITTENS under the age of 8 weeks or weighing 2 pounds or less CAN ONLY be PULLED by a RESCUE!!!! IF INTERESTED, PLEASE contact a RESCUE ASAP!!!

There are still people who pledged who haven’t honored them. This is the sweetest cat who got dealt a bad hand. We did remove two mammary tumors but she’s doing great. You can send a pledge by PayPal [email protected] or Venmo bunny-hofberg

Update- a huge huge thanks to Frankie's Fund For Feline Care and Rescue for taking sweet Pinkie into their care!! 🩷🩷

Please remember to honor your pledges 😊

TIMESTAMPED PINKIE NEEDS OUR HELP!! 💗

** $10 in pledges to the rescue that pulls **

PINKIE ACCT-A-164154 is currently considered urgent and at risk of euthanasia due to medical concerns. Pinkie must have confirmed placement with a RESCUE PARTNER by MONDAY, MAY 20th at 10:00 a.m. Should Pinkie's medical or behavioral status change, her urgency and timeline for placement may also change.

Pinkie is a 14 year old spayed female who came to ACCT on 5/11 as a surrender when her owner noted a growth on her abdomen and that she had been losing weight. She is a lovely orange kitty, a senior girl who is nowhere near running out of love and affection for old friends and strangers alike! Unfortunately, Pinkie has medical needs beyond what we can provide at the shelter, and urgently needs to leave with a rescue partner that can give her the treatment and loving home that she needs to live out her senior years in high spirits with the best possible care.

At Pinkie's vet exam (during which she was quite sweet but showed a low tolerance for restraint and medical handling), the veterinarian observed small, firm nodular masses associated with the left 2nd and 3rd mammary glands. She also has a soft cutaneous mass on the left hind limb. The rest of her exam was unremarkable (though a bit difficult to complete thoroughly due to her loud, persistent purr!). Senior bloodwork indicated that Pinkie is possibly hyperthyroid (likely sick euthyroid syndrome). Ideally, Pinkie would have a free T4 test to confirm hyperthyroidism and begin treatment, then have mass removal and biopsy procedure when her thryoid level is a bit more stable.

Pinkie has made several friends on the medical team, and is a popular kitty with anyone passing by her kennel! One staff member notes that during a recent hangout, Pinkie was soliciting pets, headbutting and leaning in for ear scratches and purring so loudly that she could still be heard when the staff member walked away! Another friend notes that she was chatting and nuzzling her kennel door to get attention, again with the purrbox warmed up and rumbling away. Pinkie's owner told us that she loves her family and strangers, getting along well with children and adults, but may do best as an only cat or perhaps with a low-key older cat with proper introductions and decompression time. She has lived with dogs, but does not do well with them; plus as a senior with medical concerns she deserves to have the run of the home and priority access to your lap and attention!

Pinkie is just the prettiest, best girl and loves people so much!

ABOUT PLEDGES: Pledges are paid directly to the 501(c)3 RESCUE that pulls the cat. The Rescue Donation link (if known) will be posted for pledges to be honored. Pledges do not guarantee that a cat's life will be saved but it may help a rescue decide if they can pull the cat and cover his/her medical needs, vetting expenses.

ABOUT US : MLC is a 100% volunteer run page. We can help facilitate a rescue, by connecting you with a 501c3 RESCUE. Must Love Cats is NOT a rescue, nor are we affiliated with any of the NYC ACC shelters.
