Tim Wright the cat here with some exciting news! This Sunday, September 7th, you can enjoy dinner and drinks at and know you are helping cats like me at the same time. Retreat Gastropub is donating 15% of all sales from the entire day to Tenth Life. Pretty great, right?

That means every delicious bite and sip you enjoy helps provide veterinary care, food, litter, and all the essentials that give cats like me a chance at a happy life.

Sadly, I cannot attend in person since my restaurant manners could use some serious polishing, but the humans at Tenth Life would love to see you there.

Check out Retreat Gastropub’s menu and hours here: https://www.retreatgastropub.com/

If I could go, I would definitely order the Surf N’ Turf. OH YEAH!

We're in a real pickle, and we could use some advice and help. Please!

Our printer, which we have had for a few years now, has officially bit the dust. It constantly jams, says that it's out of ink when it's not, and makes noises that scare the heck out of the cats (and the humans, if we're honest). Now, rescuing cats is our forte, but along with that comes a slew of admin duties, such as printing kennel cards and cat records, which we're required to keep up to date by the Department of Agriculture.

Our current printer is a Canon Pixma G7020. We made the mistake of grabbing another version at a lower cost last week (with a donation specifically for it) and quickly realized that the ink would only last about a week, and that's just not affordable for us.

We're back to square one, and we need a reliable printer that has ink cartridges that will last longer than a week, and won't break the bank!

Can anyone recommend a decent printer? Or, if you're so inclined, because we know that a better option is going to exceed the money we have earmarked, throw some spare change into cute little Pipsqueak here's piggy bank!

Thank you!

Thelma is enjoying the beautiful weather on her foster home’s screened in, cat-safe porch. She’s as happy as a lark. Tell us, how are you soaking up the final days of summer? ☀️🌻

It's !

Meet Carina and Gemini, a beautiful bonded pair of 12-year-old sisters who are ready to write their next chapter together.

These two sweetie pies were adopted from Tenth Life, had a home for several years, but through no fault of their own, they were returned to us earlier this year. When they first arrived back, they were heartbroken and terrified. But thanks to months of love, patience, and care in a wonderful foster home, they’ve blossomed into the affectionate, silly, and personable girlies we always knew they could be.

✨ Gemini is the spunky, social one who adores forehead kisses, snuggles, and wand toys. She’ll even pat your face to politely request more cuddles (and trust us, you won’t be able to resist). Though she has chronic rhinitis, it’s well-managed with a simple low-dose medication, and she doesn’t let it slow her down one bit.

✨ Carina is the quieter soul, happiest when she can peek out from a cozy hiding spot to ask for chin scratches and a few gentle pets. With patience and understanding, she shines—showing off her affectionate side with those she trusts. She’s currently on anxiety medication to help her feel confident, but we believe she may not need it forever in the right home.

Together, they are the perfect balance—spunky and silly, gentle and tender. They just need a family willing to give them the patience they deserve as they adjust to new surroundings. Once they feel safe, you’ll see what we see: two of the sweetest cats ever, and the best snuggle buddies you could ask for.

They’ve been through so much, but what they really want now is a forever home. Could it be yours?

💖 Two cats, one adoption fee, so much love.

If you are searching for the ultimate lap cat, look no further because Raspberry is your girl!

This sweet little lady adores belly rubs (yes, really, no traps here) and loves nothing more than curling up in a cozy lap. She is also a professional biscuit maker and quite possibly the snuggliest buddy we could dream of.

Raspberry came to Tenth Life after being spayed at a local TNR (trap, neuter, return) clinic, but she was far too gentle and affectionate to return to outdoor life. Now she is waiting patiently for the forever family she deserves.

One of Raspberry’s many admirers has sponsored her adoption fee, so all she needs now is the perfect home. She can be a little shy in busy settings, which is why she stayed tucked away at our adoption event last weekend. But if you visit her during quieter hours, her loving personality shines through, and she is sure to steal your heart.

Meet Terry, a loving 4.5-year-old boy who has had a rough time.

Terry came to Tenth Life after being surrendered to one of our partner vet clinics for unnecessary euthanasia when his family could no longer care for him. He not only lost his family but is also very sick. Terry is struggling with grade three dental disease, which has caused ongoing upper respiratory infections, chronic pain, and stress. Right now, this gentle guy feels downright crummy. Thankfully, he is eating soft food and soaking up our love.

Next week, Terry will undergo dental surgery to relieve his pain and get him on the path to healing. This $5 Friday, our goal is to raise $1,000 toward his surgery and routine care. Every gift, whether it is $5 or $500, will give Terry the chance at a healthy, happy life.

Please excuse the fuzzy photos. Terry is currently in our adoption lounge isolation room, where the lighting is not ideal. He would love a foster home while he recovers!

We cannot thank you enough for your support. If you are unable to donate, you can still make a difference by sharing Terry’s story or considering fostering him during his recovery.

❤️ Donate right here on Facebook or at www.tenthlifecats.org/donate

Thank you for helping us give cats like Terry the lives they deserve!

Say hello to Pimento, our sweet, chatty boy who just had his very first professional photoshoot! He may start off a little shy, but he has been making amazing progress in his foster home and is learning to trust humans more every day.

Pimento enjoys quiet time in his favorite hiding spots, but he is quick to come out for meals, pets, and some window-side chirping. He has even started cuddling on the couch on his own terms. And, playtime with his mice and ball toys shows off his playful side!

This special guy will thrive in a calm, patient home that understands he needs time to adjust and blossom into the cuddly, attention-loving lap cat he is. His ideal forever family will let him set the pace, celebrate small victories, and enjoy all the little quirks that make him unique.

Could your home be the perfect fit for Pimento? ❤️ Apply to adopt him at www.tenthlifecats.org/adopt
