Just a reminder of how we go about adoptions around here ☺️

📣‼️📣‼️📣Sweetwhisker Rescue has an important message for everyone regarding the adoption process. 📋

We know people love calicos and “flashy” looking kittens. But we are a non profit rescue , not a breeder. We aim to find permanent placement for our rescues, and that’s based off of personality first and foremost . That is something that can not be determined by coat color. We want our rescues to be successful in their new family environment.

👉🏼Some examples :

We can have the prettiest color kitten, that won’t thrive in a loud busy home. 🚫🥁

We can have a kitten that is bonded and must go with a sibling, and you’re only looking to add one kitten to your household 🐱🐱

We can have a flashy kitten that is scared of dogs, despite being raised with them, and you have dogs at home. 🚫🐶

We can have the cutest kitten who doesn’t want constant cuddles and affection, but that’s what you’re looking for. 🚫😘

These kittens personalities are as unique as mine and yours. We respect the cats wishes and boundaries and want them to have long happy lives. It’s NOT personal to anyone if I, who has spent every moment for months with the kitten, think it’s not a good fit.

❗️That being said ….. no rescue kitten will be adopted until I know what type of placement they will require❗️

🏡 ****ONCE A RESCUE IS READY TO GO HOME, they will be posted saying they are available , at that time, you may request an adoption application. Once approved, we can set up a meet and greet ! ❤️🐾 We wait until they are fixed , vaccinated , and healthy before listing for adoption .

🚨🚨🚨IF THEY ARE LISTED ON PETFINDER, THEY ARE AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Go visit Cookie & Macey at Petsense Athens ! Gia is taking a little break because she scratched her eyeball. So Cookie is taking her place. They’re such gorgeous kittens!

Cookie is a bit shy and needs time to adjust, Macey is very out going. Sounds like a great balance and you should take them BOTH home today 😉

😞💔TILLY NECROPSY UPDATE.

Trigger warning below
🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑
👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Her necropsy & tissue samples are officially back. And it doesn’t feel any better knowing *why* medically… because my heart still wants her (and Twyla) here 😢

“….it is likely that panleukopenia contributed to development of the thrombus in the heart and is a primary factor in death.”

Please vaccinate your cats. Please spay & neuter them. Please keep them inside ❤️‍🩹

At the vet with our sweet Skippy. Her tummy is bloated and she has her 3rd eyelid showing. 😕 going to run some tests and get her feeling better ❤️‍🩹

DUDE update.

His paw is definitely looking better! He’s finally learned to p*e IN the litter box which is so very appreciated because he’s got Tom Cat p*e… if you know you know 😭

He gave me a quiet little hiss when I was checking on his paw, but zero attempt to bite or scratch me. He can EAT. An absolute absurd amount 😂 I am considering trying to raise funds for an additional “top” to this “critter nation” cage so he can have bottom level as potty, middle as food/water, and a whole level to stretch out versus a shelf to sleep on. That is $150 and while it’s not a *requirement* it will be much more of a comfy spot for him to be.

We have the quilt raffle, calendars, ornaments, & hoodies available for purchase if anyone is interested! Also below is the registry with the cage I am talking about.

🍍Alade🍍

This sweet little shy girl looking for a soft, quiet place to land. Alade is a gentle kitten who thrives in a slow, calm home where she can take her time to feel safe and open up. Once she trusts you, she absolutely melts your heart! Alade may take a little time to warm up, but once she does, she becomes the sweetest, softest companion. She just needs someone patient and loving who will let her blossom at her own pace.
If you have a peaceful home and a cozy spot for a tender little soul, Alade might be your perfect match!

Alade is up to date on vaccines & spayed. She is sensitive to POULTRY cat food so MUST be on poultry free diet !

If you’re interested in adding her to your home, send us a message for an application for adoption!

***NOT ACCEPTING INQUIRIES AT THIS TIME. Please refer to our pinned post about the adoption process***

Lots of little kittens doing big cat things today 🥹 Story being a pro at wet food as usual. But Fable was munching on dry food today! Then Author & Novel ate wet food for the first time today too 🥹

I set up a bigger cat tree for them today, too. Look at Verse, Poet, & Author being so big!

My heart can’t handle it. 🤍

If you would like to donate wet kitten food or toys, they’d be so happy! We are a 501c3 nonprofit who receives zero government funding or tax dollars. We don’t have any paid employees and 100% of our donations goes straight to the care of our rescues!
