Another sad and unfortunate storyšŸ’”

About a week ago, one of our volunteers who also works in real estate received a message about a person passing away in their home weeks prior and leaving 2 cats behind. They claimed they contacted ACCT to pickup and they wouldnā€™t come out, which we have not verified but highly doubt this is true.

She was able to get in contact with the property manager and they were supposedly feeding the cats. Our volunteer goes over to assess the situation 2 days later and finds nothing short of tragedy.

Despite workers coming and going from the property, no one had fed these cats in several weeks. They said they were scared of getting fleas. The calico lay dead on the kitchen floor from probable starvation and dehydration and the tuxedo sitting near by.

We now have midnight in our care and sheā€™s been hospitalized with hepatic lipidosis and severe dehydration. Weā€™re hoping she makes a full recovery because sheā€™s been through way too much trauma and is the sweetest girl.

šŸ¾Adoption Alert!šŸ¾ Our sweet orange boy Griffin was adopted and went to his forever home last week! His adopter fell in love with him immediately because of how cuddly and loving Griffin is. He spent hours purring, asking for pets, and rolling in catnip at his adoption meet šŸ˜‚
We wish Griffin the best life ahead and are so happy to have been a little part of his journey.

šŸ’• SEPTA FAMILY šŸ’•

This is one of the best family of cats on the planet. Joan is the best mom ever and the kittens all love her and each other. You see how big they are getting?! They sometimes still nurse on mom too..free loaders! šŸ¤£

They absolutely need to be paired up and we really want mom to stay with one of her babies. They are all so bonded to each other. Tyler in particular follows her around the most. They are all so good, sweet, playful, silly, and lovable!!

Tyler, Choo Choo, Trollie, Caboose, EL, and momma Joan are all still available and you can apply at www.straycatrelieffund.org.

We have an extremely sad update šŸ’”

Maxwell passed away overnight. I can only hope he was waiting until he could be warm, safe and peaceful because I donā€™t want to believe anything else.
We really tried to save him and so many things came into play here but his body had just been through too much.

This poor baby didnā€™t get like this overnight and no one can tell me they didnā€™t see this cat in this condition on the street and not do anything to help him. Many many people have failed him.

He deserved to be loved in a nice warm house, laying in the lap of someone who loved him.

I donā€™t have it in me now to say more but thank you for the donations for his care.

Maxwell, we loved you in the short time we knew you.
Be at peace, warm, happy, fat and whole again buddy ā¤ļø

This is the face of a cat whoā€™s been failed over and over again in his life.

Heā€™s alive thanks to a volunteer finding him sitting on a doorstep today. Heā€™s very sick. Heā€™s a senior cat thatā€™s anemic, high liver values and a mouth full of broken or missing teeth. We want him to live and we have a treatment plan for him but he now needs a place to go. A FOSTER who will love and care for this sweet boy.

You see, we had a foster, actually an adopter lined up for him. The personā€™s whose door he was at has been feeding him and heā€™s already ran in their house multiple times and met their cats. They wanted to adopt him but concerned if he had anything contagious. So we said yes weā€™re getting him medical care and how about starting out by fostering him and we cover everything? He said sounds good and we sent updates as the medical exam went on.

Only for him to say no, they donā€™t want him because his mother wants a young cat.

So F**k this poor cat youā€™ve fed and allowed in your house!

Maxwell needs a foster because the sideroom is no place for a sick cat like him. He deserves comfort, love and to be monitored. His care isnā€™t difficult, heā€™s getting antibiotics twice a day. Heā€™s combo negative, has been flea treated and dewormed.

We gave this boy the chance he deserves by not euthanizing and at least fighting for him since heā€™s not symptomatic and now we need someone to open their heart and home for this sweet boy who doesnā€™t stop purring and kneading. šŸ©·

Meet Petit Four (slides 1ā€5) & her nearly identical brother Emilio Jr (slides 5-8). You can tell them apart by the cute little dot on Emilio Jr's nose. Both these adorable kittens are looking for a forever home and can be adopted by themselves if you already have a resident cat to keep them company, or together. They love playing with each other, but Petit Four loves spending time snuggling with her humans even more than playing. They have the fluffiest little tails that are mesmerizing to watch as they chase each other around the house. With her velvety-soft fur and irresistibly long ear tufts, Petit Four will fall asleep nestled in your arms or tucked under your chin, bringing a gentle calm wherever she goes. And when you wake up often times sheā€™s still lying close to you but quickly climbs onto your chest to welcome you to a new morning.Ā While Emilio jr is the more playful one of the siblings, he has a super sweet and loving side as well. He loves climbing onto his humans and showering them with kisses and love.

To adopt either or both of them, please fill out an adoption application at the link in our bio.

We have a very special plea for our girl Suzie šŸ’›

Suzie has mammary masses and needs a partial mastectomy but the surgery is $1,400. Suzie is only 11 years old and is otherwise in good health. Weā€™d really really like to get this done for her because she deserves to have a happy ending after being abandoned on the streets in her senior years.

Can you guys please come together and help us raise the money to help her? šŸ™

Another part is she needs a foster or adopter after her surgery is complete. Sheā€™s currently in temporary holding and her foster is leaving next week.

Please help us with this beautiful girl!

Channing is ready to help you decorate his future forever home for the holidays! He's a gorgeous grey kitty and the perfect playful, affectionate companion. He loves playing but also really appreciates a good snuggle. He has a sweet habit of rubbing his face against yours, a sign of his deep affection. Whether itā€™s curling up next to you or even right on top of you, he loves being close, making him the perfect cuddle buddy. Before he went to his foster home, Channing spent a few days at The Scratching Post, begging for pets from every human that passed by. He's the friendliest little kitty!

šŸ’• FOSTER SPOTLIGHT: MJ šŸ’•

We canā€™t imagine what kind of home MJ came from if they were able to abandon her like they did. MJ was first seen (and posted on Next Door) behind a shopping center in South Philly near a known cat colony where many cats are dumped. After a week or so she made her way through the shopping center toward the main, busy street. She was sitting behind a ShopRite all alone when thankfully one of our volunteers spotted her while driving down Oregon Ave.

MJ had an indent in her neck fur indicating there was once a collar. The vet confirmed she was previously spayed and no microchip. This just reaffirmed she was dumped like trash by her previous owner.

Her foster mom calls her ā€œfake meanā€- because she really isnā€™t at all. She clearly needs to learn to be loved again and trust that she is safe. MJ is sweet but with her baggage from a clear trauma she experienced she gets nervous and swipes. What is so sad and yet so sweet about this, is that she does it with no claws out at all. It kind of makes your heart hurt because she clearly wants love and a family but still has moments she is unsure of it all. She very quickly curls up next to you or demands some crunchies haha. She is such a good girl too and stays in her foster room even when the door is open (too many cats out there so sheā€™s content in her comfy suite).

Please give MJ a chance! She deserves a committed, patient, and loving family!

P.S. Her name is MJ (Mary Jane) because there was a dude rolling a joint right by her at the ShopRite šŸ¤£

šŸ©¶ MEET DARKNESS šŸ©¶

Darkness is an older gentleman, around 10-12 years old, who is looking for a foster or foster to adopt home. He is the sweetest little man and full of purrs. He was rescued many years ago and belonged to a dear friend and cat rescuer who passed away a few years ago. His living situation has become unstable and he found himself back outside.

We had to get him safe inside as soon as possible and so heā€™s in a temporary foster until 11/30. So we are looking for a more permanent foster home for Darkness. He is very lovable and gets along with other kitties.

Who will give Darkness all the love he deserves? Apply at www.straycatrelieffund.org.

Grab the tissues šŸ„¹

Jason ā€œJJā€ is the little boy who helped rescue and then foster Turtle (our sewer cat). All the other kids brought toys for the first Show N Tell of the year but JJ made a whole project to tell Turtleā€™s story.

All the kids had questions - 21 to be exact and it turns out his teacherā€™s favorite animals are cats as she already has 2!

We really need more kids in the world like JJ who clearly care so much about animals and can teach others kindness and compassion towards them.

Did you wake up thinking ..ā€man, I need a little lioness in my life to loveā€. Ok probably not, but are you thinking it now??

Well meet Suzie, our little lioness šŸ¦! Suzie needs a foster home! She was shaved because when we rescued her, she was badly matted. She is a calm, loving lady that just wants love.

Suzie will need surgery to remove mammory tumors - donā€™t worry, we anticipate she will be ok! She needs a cozy place to recover and we will be there every step of the way!

Please consider opening your heart and home to Suzie. Apply below ā¬‡ļø:
