Sweetwhisker Rescue

A 501c3 non profit organization dedicated to helping the cats and kittens of rural East Tennessee

01/06/2025

Waffles hasn’t acted herself since her spay. We took her in to the vet today along with Marsh & Mello. She has a fever but her incision looks alright. She received an antibiotic injection, some ✨feel good✨ meds, and inflammation/pain medicine.

As always, we are a 501c3 nonprofit who receives ZERO tax dollars. Everything we are able to do, is because of you . The generous donation we received from The Clique on our account is dwindling. Which is good because it means we have helped so many rescues. But scary because it means our safety net is fraying. If you would like to donate to the vet, we would really really appreciate it. You can donate directly to the vet, or Venmo / cash app / PayPal etc.

THIS. IS. WILD.

We separated Waffles and her babies because of Waffles spay.

And her two “scaredy kittens” have 100% changed since being away from her ! She has always been a very protective and attentive mom… and I’m beginning to think that she was keeping them shy 🤔

ALL 3 of her remaining kittens are available for adoption ! Marmalade is a short hair calico who is spunky and fun. Maple is a long hair calico who has emerged from her shell. And last but not least, Gravy is a long hair orange and white boy who is also gaining confidence 🐾 you can find all three of their profiles below 👇🏼

🚨FOUND MADISONVILLE🚨

Is this your kitty ?

This cat found its way to another porch of a Sweetwhisker supporter.

I don’t have favorites…. But if I did….. 🥹🥰 Coal is the absolute sweetest !

🧇WAFFLES🧇

Our waffle-ahfulus. The mama to the breakfast club.
Waffles is not only a great mama, she’s a great cat. She is “older” at around 4 or 5. Waffles is the definition of “unbothered”. She is so low drama, non-confrontational, and just all over a chill cat. Waffles isn’t worried about a thing. She isn’t bothered by our dogs, isn’t bothered by our naughty bratty MeowMeow who likes to stir the pot 🥴 She just lives her own life without a care in the world. She will sleep in your lap for cuddles, and she loves her cheek scratches.

Waffles is recovering from her spay, but I expect her to be fully healed in a few days. Waffles is fixed, vaccinated, has her rabies, and microchipped. If you’d like to welcome this chill girl into your life, message me on here or at [email protected] for an application for adoption 🐾🧇

The sweetest kitty with the sweetest face 🥹

Chupacabra does have allergies, but it seems to be managed with OTC human allergy meds 🙂

Everyone is checked in !
I think Spay and Neuter days are my favorite… maybe second favorite with adoptions being the best day…. But spay and neuter is a cloooose second.

I LOVE knowing that with these cats, it ends TODAY. No more giving birth, no more reproducing at any level. Their lives are about to be soooo much easier from here on out. ✨

Donations and grants make days like this possible. With being a 501c3 non profit who gets ZERO government funding…. It can be stressful not knowing when we will have funds coming in next. But YOU guys make this possible. And I hope you all know how important you are, not only to me, but to these cats. You make such a positive difference in the trajectory of their lives. Thank you.

SPAY AND NEUTER DAY TOMORROW !

Our mama Waffles finally gets her spay day.

Dora is also getting her spay day ! I can not believe no one came forward to claim this lover girl 😢

& Marsh & Mello get their neuters !

And I know you haven’t seen Marsh & Mello before on my page… that’s because Mello was just trapped last night, and Marsh today ! Turns out these “little” guys have been roaming a neighborhood, getting fed at multiple houses and had multiple heated sleep areas 🥴 Truly making their rounds 😂 One of their feeders has assisted me in their trapping & veterinary care…. And come Monday, they’ll be inside kitties at her home 🥳

I am SO happy to announce that there are THREE women in very very close proximity to each other who all want to help put a dent in the feral / stray population. They are all working with Sweetwhisker to TNR their neighborhood strays. And it just truly warms my heart to know we as a community are preventing unwanted litters !

2025 is off to a great start already 🥰

A perfect way to spend the new year… cuddle up with Chupa. Just like his brother, he is a MAJOR snuggle bug. Chupacabra is available for adoption.

When you can’t believe how much weight you’ve gained 🤪❤️

🐾meet CALVIN🐾

He is now settled into his AMAZING foster home. I rest easy knowing he will be taken care of so well. He’s got his own quarantine room with a heated blanket, cat tree, toys etc . He is in some loving hands 🥰

I am so grateful for our fosters. They make rescuing kittens like Calvin possible ❤️

Just when we thought we didn’t have any more rescues of 2024…..

Tiny little guy here was picked up by a caring person. One of my favorite ladies who works at our vet of choice, sent me a picture. And that was all she had to do. My heart is his, he owns it. He has a massive upper respiratory infection and a deep ulcer in one eye, superficial one in the other. 😢 He is SWEET. I don’t even mind that he’s slinging boogers all over.

Name isn’t decided yet, but I have ideas 🙂 A massive thank you for a foster of ours becoming a repeat foster mom 🥹❤️

If you would like to donate to his care, you may donate directly to his vet (he has a check up on Tuesday) or at any of the links below.

🚨🚨🚨FOSTER PLEA🚨🚨🚨

🎉🎉🎉PENDING FOSTER🎉🎉🎉

Would anyone like to step up and help an approximately 8 week old kitten !? There is NO financial cost to you . Please reach out asap if you, or someone you know, is able to help this baby.

12/31/2024

If you’re looking for the most loving lap (or chest for us ladies 😂) kitten… he is it. This boy is SO loving and sweet. 🩶🥹

I have to share this story of what happened tonight.

I got a call that a newly adopted kitten was missing. Nowhere to be found. Gone. I hopped in the car with my son right away and drove an hour to their house. I pulled up and you could see the family (and neighbor kids) outside with flash lights searching. They tore apart the house, so they were certain he must have slipped out .

Me and my son started searching in the house. First place I looked was the couch. The adopter flipped the couch so I could see under. As I was laying on the floor I heard “I found him” . I didn’t respond. We had been in the house 30 seconds. My brain couldn’t compute. “I FOUND HIM” my son says louder. This little kitty was snug as a bug, fast asleep in a cabinet. 😂😂😂 when I tell you it took my son literally 30 seconds to find the kitty… I am not exaggerating 😂 I cried from relief. His adopter was embarrassed 🥲 But they did the absolute perfect thing in that situation. They called me and let me know, they printed out fliers with reward money, they had neighborhood kids searching outside. They did exactly what I would wish in that situation.

So remember, kittens are little and cat hide in the most random of places and fall fast asleep 😂❤️

This pretty girl got an ultrasound today and no kittens were detected 🥳🎉

No one has stepped forward to claim ownership of this sweet girl, which is heartbreaking . Next steps will be getting her spayed and vaccinated and ready for a new home.

12/30/2024

🥳🥳🥳 YETI & JERSEY ! Congratulations on your new home TOGETHER ! There are so many benefits to getting two kittens at once, and I’m so glad your new mom saw those as well ! Thank you so much Amy for choosing TWO rescue kittens!

I received a blanket basket yesterday to hold all the adorable blankets a supporter / adopter made for the rescue . And well, you can say it serves more than one purpose 😂🐾

✨THE WILD WHISKER✨ is 99% done ! Thank you for the donated flooring , the donated heaters, the donated cat trees / toys. Thank you for raising funds for cat food / litter when we need to fill up all these shelves. Thank you for raising the funds to transport the shed here. Thank you for all your endless support 🥰🐾

The little kittens first experience with a toy 🥹🥰

Beautiful Opal has been a CHALLENGE, to say the least . When she has free range of the house, she hides and runs and doesn’t want anything to do with any one at all. BUT when she is in a closed space like my son’s bedroom, she is such a sweet playful lover ! I don’t get it 🥴 she may end up being the official mouser of “the wild whisker” because I am at a loss with this girl !
