Lucille
Well well well! Look who is exploring and owning the place! Lucille! 👏🏻😻Her adjustment to being blind has been practically seamless! These cats never cease to amaze us! She wanted out of her familiar foster room to exploring the house. You can see in videos below how she’s learning to trust herself by jumping down, etc. She’s even learning how to navigate the cat trees. Marcel is still very protective of her and is always cleaning her. She goes in for her postop appointment tomorrow! THANK YOU THANK YOU to all of our wonderful donors who made this possible and to foster moms Maria and Amber for doing such an amazing, patient job with these babies!
Lucille is home!
Our dear little Mission Meow foster kitten, Lucille, is back home and resting after a big day on Saturday. Our sweet girl had to undergo surgery to have her compromised eyes removed. One of our incredible vet partners, Dr. Kristina Netherwood at the Veterinary Medical Center of Folsom along with her wonderful staff, took excellent care of Lucille. We’re deeply grateful for their kin #dness and for helping us get her in so quickly, as she had been suffering and needed immediate care.This surgery has been particularly tough for all of us at Mission Meow. It’s heartbreaking to see Lucille like this, but we know her future is now brighter—with less pain, no more constant vet visits, and no need for ongoing eye treatments. Lucille is currently being fostered by our amazing foster mom Amber, who has five blind cats of her own. She couldn’t be in better hands! Blind cats truly make the most wonderful companions, and we’ve witnessed this time and again. Once Lucille recovers from her surgery, she’ll be ready to shine and live her best life. Foster mom Amber and the nanny can are keeping a close eye on her to ensure she’s comfortable and healing well. Lucille’s brother, Marcel, is especially happy to have his sister back home. He’s been cleaning her, snuggling with her, and being the most attentive and loving big brother. Thank you all for your continued support as we help Lucille through her recovery. Stay tuned for updates on her progress—she’s going to be simply purrfect in no time. 🧡 See video of her below making biscuits 🐾

Hey kids- save some for us!
Your donations at work! Marcel was able to get his cryotherapy prodecure done today by the awesome folks at Companion Veterinary Clinic . I think Marcel rates them at 5 stars! We sure do! 🧡 We know vet tech Carissa has a soft spot for kitties with wonky eyes because she adopted a one eyed kitten from us last year ! Thank you to all who helped us with your donations and shares!

Brother Marcel is getting his turn for cryotherapy tomorrow. HUGE thanks to Companion Care in Auburn for doing these procedures for us! They are the best!
