If you think one litter won't hurt, think again! Know the facts about the current pet overpopulation.

‼️ We need help! We are once again nearly out of dry food and completely out of litter in the foster room. I’ve been using pellet litter up there and clay litter downstairs for everyone else and we are completely out of pellet litter and down to 1-2 boxes of clay litter.

PLEASE donate if you can!

This is going to be a productive but Hugely Expensive day at around $130-$150 per cat. PLEASE donate!

VOLUNTEER NEEDED! Does anyone with a truck want to help us move this shelter from red hook to the colony in Athens?! It won’t fit in my car but the seller is willing to hold it while we find someone to help us. And we could probably use the help carrying it too 😭 please message us if you can help!
I will reimburse you for gas!

Miss Andy got her neck this morning which brings the total we owe ACVH up to $948. She was a very good girl at the vet and everybody loves her! She will be getting antibiotics and twice a day wound flushing for 2 weeks.

🥶 COLD WEATHER & CATS HOUSES 🥶

A simple tote can mean the difference between life and death!! There are lots of options of cat houses out there, but even just a large Rubbermaid-type tote can really help keep them warm.

🚨 STRAW ONLY!! NEVER USE BLANKETS OR HAY!! 🚨

🐈 Overstuff with straw. Just don't fill too much so kitty can't burrow in.

🐈 Put in an area out of direct wind.

🐈 Do not put food or water inside.....cats don't like to eat where they sleep.

🐈 Put tote off the ground if possible, on boards or even a pallet.

🐈 Check the straw periodically to make sure it doesn’t get wet. If moisture does get in, change with fresh straw.

Andy has developed a huge abscess on her neck. I have no idea where this came from but somehow I didn’t notice it yesterday (in my defense I only got to see them for a few minutes before I had to run out to go trapping). She will be heading back to ACVH tomorrow to see Dr. P and have it lanced. In the meantime I’m starting pain meds and antibiotics tonight. She looks extremely silly right now.

MY KIDS ARE HOME!!!! After a 2 week stay at ACVH the celestial kittens + shoestring have finally been sprung. Huge huge huge shoutout to Dr. Jarvis and the rest of the staff there for basically fostering them in the isolation ward for me while I was busy losing my mind. Obi started purring and trying to break out of the carrier as soon as she heard my voice 😭 I’ve missed these guys so freaking much. In a shocking turn of events Shoestring is now totally normal looking while everyone else is covered in narsty fungus. This colony is definitely passing around a VERY virulent strain of ringworm. On the bright side Orion and Andy’s buttholes look better!

The total for their hospital stay was just shy of $900. PLEASE donate if you can!

While we were out feeding the Athens colony earlier today, we noticed yet another injured cat limping across the parking lot. We quickly ran home to get a trap but we were not able to catch her. She let us get pretty close to her and was crying nonstop begging for help, but we could not risk trying to grab her by hand. She has what looks like a swollen, probably infection-filled wound on her neck as well as some missing hair and possible wounds on her hind end. Unfortunately it is likely she was attacked by an animal, and in cases of feral cats that have bite wounds, a lot of the time our only realistic option is humane euthanasia. But at least she would not be suffering anymore. We will be going back out tomorrow to try and find her again. If we do catch her we are going to need donations for her vet bill even if it’s just a euthanasia. We are not even 1/4 of the way through this colony and are already thousands of dollars deep. We NEED help from the community. DONATE: straycatnetwork.org/donate OR straycatnetwork.org/fundraiser

‼️911‼️ EMERGENCY RESCUE IN PROGRESS ‼️ At the colony where the Cinderella kittens came from we were informed one of the other older kittens has been critically injured. Last time we were there we didn’t see him but today we went and he was there. He’s hiding under cars and won’t come close to us but he’s also so severely injured and covered in infected necrotic wounds and even from 10 feet away the smell of infection is absolutely overwhelming. This kitten is not going to make it if we don’t catch him today, and even then there’s a good chance he’s going to need to be put to sleep to end his suffering. But whatever happens he will have to go to the emergency vet and we NEED donations. We are desperate. This kitten is suffering horrendously. Please please help us help him.
