Munchkin has been picked as a runner for America’s Favorite pet!!! Munchkin is a special needs kitty with development damage from birthing.

Let’s reframe this caption truthfully

Human lightbulb moment as abandoned cat purrs for ‘3 hours’ after being inhumanely forced to live in freezing temperatures because its human cruelly threw it outside forcing it to attempt to survive.

Two years ago I spent weeks hunting down a cat that was cruelly abandoned with refusal to cooperate with police for his location. I found that cat and sat in my vehicle freezing until I trapped him as temperatures dipped to -17°. The person who did it has no remorse. We in rescue encounter this mentality & behavior every day. House cats being forced to live outside is not responsible pet ownership. Abandonment should not be socially accepted behavior. We can and should do better. Keep them SAFE and WARM!

Unfortunately, there is a situation unfolding that has to be addressed to all via a public notice. My personal name & my Rescue are under attack by another Rescue. The rescue has been given two cease-and-desist notices which have been ignored. Tomorrow my attorney will be sending additional legal notice as we file motions in court. This is a nightmare for any rescue. I ask all of you to be patient and to allow the matter be handled legally rather than knee-jerk keyboard warrior mode on social media. This is way it should be handled. Thank you.

It’s too chaotic during Christmas to introduce a new pet! After the holidays is best.

Cat hair may or may not be attached to tape on Christmas gifts. Gifts may or may not have extra peek holes. They’ve all participated in wrapping this year😂🤷‍♀️

Christmas is coming and people are asking for kittens. This is why we say no singletons. Do you know how many adult kitties that need single cat homes? Too many. Adopt them. They are even more grateful without the kitten energy. They love just as hard😻

Rescues like me everywhere need your SUPPORT!! It’s crazy out there with need calls, limited space & of course resources. We appreciate everything we get😻

*pending adoption
while getting Hay, this beautiful cat comes racing up to me meowing and meowing super thin and I scoop him up so he doesn’t get in the way of the tractor. The farmer tells me that he had just been dropped off at the property by a car sped away and how he had had it with people dropping cats off at his property. Fair enough it happens to Farmers all the time that people take indoor house cats and throw them outside and expect them to do well in freezing weather with no winter coat. I asked him if it’s OK that I take him and find him home. He agrees. This is the adoring look on this cat who is purring like crazy and making biscuits all over my horse blanket and gratitude for being in a warm truck. On my ride back from the Farmers I am blessed to find a Foster for him. This little guy is now safe and secure in a warm house where he belongs. And the best part is, I think my Foster is going to permanently keep him! These are the happy endings that we live for.

The amount of humans who just throw their cat outside to “survive” then the amount of humans who just walk right by is staggering. Then the rescues who go get the cats & spay/neuter them, get their shots, deworm & give any meds if needed then struggle to find a home because said humans want a “free” cat is mindblowing🤯
This mindset has to change. Let’s go over some numbers on your quote unquote free cat. You have approximately a 4 to 6 month wait at Tara for a spay neuter appointment and you have to either adjust your work schedule or take the day off to do this. I hope you’re equipped to wait that 4 to 6 months to spay your cat at the reduce rate of a minimum of $100 risking your pet going into heat or male musky maturity since this is the exact point that 90% of cats are thrown out of the house!!Then let’s add your distemper shot at $20 which leaves out calici and feline rhino, a microchip at $35 (if you are that responsible as those 90% thrown outside are NOT micro-chipped), add dewormer at $20 (which leaves out Pyrantel paomate and praziquantel - worm load & type are important). And last, a snap test which is another $35 to determine your new cat has FIV/FELV. So technically your cat will cost you $210 at the reduce rates in order to have basic care. If you take your cat to a vet for the same services, you’d be looking at triple to quadruple bill. And yet, every Rescue and Shelter that asks a fair adoption rate to reimbursement for SOME of the expenses that they make gets flack for what their adoption rate is. These adoption rates don’t take into account the High cost of cat food, cat litter, and any other care that they provide from cleaning ear mites, flea treatment, etc. because that stuff is NOT free and NO one is lined up securing funding for these expenses to help them stay afloat! These adoption rates also don’t take into account that rescues have had the time to assess the cat understand what their personality is and help match them into a suitable home so that it’s a good mix for both the humans and the cat.

Please stop supporting the free cat trade. Instead support your local rescues because they’re tired, they’re struggling with burn out and yet they feel that they can’t stop because they’re still too many cats being thrown outside unfairly with an unrealistic expectation to survive on their own.
