OC Shelter Cats

🐾 Update- 1.6, 7 am: Betty exited the shelter yesterday 🐾 Update- 1.3, 10:30 pm: Betty has rescue commitment. This post will be updated once she has exited the shelter ❗ EUTH LISTED- Rescue Needed by January 3rd, 4:00 pm ❗ Betty A1834782 Altered Female 1 year 3 months old Original Post by @ocsheltercats 🐾 Betty had given birth to kittens but after 4 weeks, she was no longer caring for them, was not eating and was lethargic. The kittens found placement and mom was started on treatment. She started to feel better and was prepared for adoption. She is a sweet cat and enjoys attention but she does time out quickly. She has bit twice since being at the shelter. The first time she bit staff when they were cleaning her kennel leaving punctures and scratches on their forearm above their wrist. The second time she bit a potential adopter as they were petting her- leaving 3 punctures on their right pointer finger and knuckle. Due to her temperament, she will need a rescue who can help her by the end of her quarantine, January 3rd 4:00 pm. Any 501c3, IRS tax exempt, rescue organization can pull from OC Animal Care. Tustin, Orange County, CA. If you are NOT a rescue, do not contact the shelter - we know you mean well but you may be keeping the staff from getting to a rescues email who may be able to help! *If you aren't with a rescue, that's okay!

🐾 Update- 12.30, 6 pm: Gideon AND his littermates were pulled by The Ark of San Juan Companion Animal Rescue . We are SO excited for them. You can donate/honor your pledge via their page 💕 Update- 12.29, 6:30 pm: Gideon was rescued and has exited the shelter. This post will be updated if the rescuing party is identified ❗ EUTH LISTED- Rescue Needed by January 2nd, 4:00 pm ❗ Gideon A1848788 Unaltered Male 5 weeks Old Original Post by @ocsheltercats 🐾 Gideon and his littermates (A1848789 Sultan, A1848790 Ambrose, and A1848791 Milton) were found in a mobile home park. It took the finder a few days to get them and bring them to the shelter as they noticed they were sick. All four of them have URI and need socialization, however, Gideon needs the most help. He is the runt of the litter weighing less than a pound and allowed the least amount of handling (he's the tiny guy running to hide behind the kitty house in the video). Although Gideon's littermates don't have a deadline at this time, a rescue can pull them all together if they have the bandwidth. Otherwise, Gideon is most in need and needs a rescue willing to work on his behavior and help him gain the weight back. He needs rescue commitment no later than January 2nd, 4:00 pm.

He arrived at the shelter and he is a friendly boy, but when he does not want to be handled anymore he will let you know. He loves to get pets around his head.

🐾 Update- 11.10, 7 pm: Felix was rescued by The Purrty Pals . Pledges can be honored via Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/thepurrtypals ❗ EUTH LISTED- Rescue Needed By November 11th, 4:00 pm ❗ Felix A1843306 Unaltered Male ~5 weeks Old Original Post by @ocsheltercats 🐾 Felix is a 5 week old tuxedo hunk that came in as a stray. The shelter is deeming him "not socialized" and has added him to the euthanasia because of it. As you can see in his video, he is NOT hissing, swatting, spitting - he is a baby and he is scared. He's even hiding under his blanket 😥. This sweet boy needs a rescue with a dedicated foster who can teach him that people aren't all that day with a little love and patience. Let's get Felix out of there. Any "anti-shelter"/negative comments will be removed. That is not our intent with this post. We just don't think Felix is as bad as some other "behaviorals" we've seen and because of his age, there's a greater change of a turnaround. Any 501c3, IRS tax exempt, rescue organization can pull from OC Animal Care. Tustin, Orange County, CA. If you are NOT a rescue, do not contact the shelter - we know you mean well but you may be keeping the staff from getting to a rescues email who may be able to help! *If you aren't with a rescue, that's okay!
