Hi all! We wanted to share a GoFundMe to support FIP treatments for one of our Saint Sophia alumni kitties! Bart got adopted by one of our amazing volunteers and fell ill shortly after.. he was diagnosed with wet FIP which as of recently can be treated with medications prescribed by a vet (before June of this year they could only be purchased on the black market) so although the treatment is now easier to get. It is still very expensive! If anyone is able to help Bart get the care he needs to fight this it would mean the world to us!

This is Bart, a 7 month old kitten. He was recently diagnosed with FIP (wet), with a large… Vivian Garcia needs your support for Join Bart's Fight Against FIP

Meet Mommy, Baby Girl, and PJ, a trio of senior cats hoping to find their forever home—ideally together. Mommy, at 13 years old, is the loving mother to her two daughters, Baby Girl and PJ, who are both 11. These three have never been apart and share an unbreakable bond. Despite their age, the vets have given them an excellent bill of health, and they’re ready to bring their sweet, loving energy into a home where they can stay together and enjoy their well-deserved retirement. 🐾

Meet Jitterbug, a senior boy who was adopted as a small kitten and returned through no fault of his own 8 years later. Now, he’s looking for a loving home to call his own for the second half of his life. While he’s a bit shy at first, Jitterbug quickly warms up and does amazingly well with other cats. This sweet, gentle soul deserves a peaceful home where he can finally settle in and enjoy his golden years. 🐾

Meet Miss June Bug, a true survivor with a heart full of love. After being hit by a car, having her tail amputated, and initially testing positive for FeLV (only to later be cleared after intensive care), this remarkable girl has faced more challenges than most cats. Despite ongoing battles with a UTI (likely a residual issue from the accident) and currently sporting her "donut of shame," June Bug remains one of the most affectionate cats you'll ever meet. She’s ready for a forever home where she can share her incredible spirit and love with someone truly special. 🐾

26/12/2024

Meet Juju, the "old lady extraordinaire" with a huge personality packed into a tiny body. Estimated to be between 13-16 years old and mostly vision impaired, she’s still full of life and will do anything—including slamming her whole body into you—for affection. Juju loves nothing more than wrapping her arms around your neck and nuzzling you for some much-needed love. Give this sweet older girl a chance to show you just how much love she has to give! 🐾

Do you ever find yourself wanting a cat that tends to walk like it’s been drinking a bit too much on a Friday night? Well… you’re in luck! We have a few of the best CH kitties around! What’s CH? Cerebellar hypoplasia, sometimes called wobbly cat syndrome, is a congenital condition in cats that is neither contagious nor progressive. CH affects the cerebellum of the kittens, which is the area of the brain that controls fine motor movement, balance and coordination. The affected cats often have noticeable symptoms from birth, which range from mild signs of head bobbing and high stepping to more severe signs like tremors and the inability to walk. (These guys have a very mild case so are totally mobile, just a little wobbly *see video of Weeble*)A common misconception is that these cats may be in pain. Cats and kittens with CH can lead a very normal, happy, and healthy life. It does not affect their life expectancy and many adapt exceedingly well to their disability. If you find yourself lucky enough to welcome one of these lovely cats into your life we’re positive your life will be forever changed for the better!Learn more about our current CH cats (Violette, Dash, Weeble & Zara) and to adopt at www.stsff.org
