Bird Flu and Felines

Often a pandemic causes panic, sometimes with good reason. We want to provide some well sourced articles about the H5N1 virus that is highly infectious and deadly to birds AND cats. There is no vaccine, the symptoms vary, and often they pass with no warning. You can bring this virus home on your shoes and clothing. This is a SERIOUS illness. Now is the time to keep your cats indoors and take them in for an annual exam.

Currently there isn’t a lot of information, but we will provide what there is:

Kitten puddle! It’s getting warmer out, but our kittens still love to cuddle! Mercury (Grey) Matty (Orange) and Major (Black) love to snuggle up and hang out on the couch waiting for someone to come sit and pet all of them!

Matty heard its and wanted to show you how cute and ready for snugs he is! His lack of eyes doesn’t stop him from doing everything all the other cats do, including looking for a forever home!

As 2023 goes behind us and we look towards 2024, we just want to thank everyone who supports, donates, fosters, adopted, or even just acknowledges what we are doing with Rocket Cat Rescue this year.

-We took in 25 new cases in 2023
-We found wonderful homes for 15 cats in our care
-Sadly, we said goodbye to 7 cats whose medical issues just count not be overcome, but we provided them compassionate care and hospise until the very end.
-We saw a generous uptick in grant funding available for programs like ours
-We could not do this without the community support from all of you.

We are cautiously optimistic for 2024, working to finish up some medical work to get more cats out for adoption, with a goal of finding 15-20 cats forever homes in 2024 and being able to continue our core mission of supporting the special needs cats that need it most.

Thank you.
