Jelly is looking for her new walking buddy! She’s so easy going, a 2-year-old kiddo can take her for a stroll 🥰
Jelly is about 10 and came to us with a bladder full of stones, broken teeth, and in the early stages of heart disease. Now she’s feeling much better and is ready to meet the perfect people to spoil her for her golden years 💛
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Miss Jelly. She gets along with all the people and animals she’s met, goes outside or will use potty pads like a champ, and LOVES some quality snuggle time.
Jelly is a sweet senior dumpling with a lot of love to give!!

Maple update!!💕
This boy keeps surprising us in the best ways! Once terrified of humans, Maple has progressed from tolerating their presence, to cautiously sitting near them, to enjoying full on head scratches 🥹🥹
Maple is a sweet and curious 10-month-old who is fostered with dogs and cats. He loves to watch Bird TV and is very treat motivated. We originally thought that he wouldn’t be interested in human affection, but the right adopter might be able to help him warm up even more! Who’s up for the challenge? 😉

📣ATTENTION: does your pooch need an adorable orange bestie??
Cantaloupe is just what the doctor ordered. This kid has grown up around dogs and rules the roost, even without functional leggies! As you can see, he gets along just fine without them 🐾
Cantaloupe is a handsome young cat who loves batting around all the toys and scootching over to cuddle up with people or foster pals. He doesn’t need a litterbox because you can help him go to the bathroom right into a trash can or on a potty pad for easy clean up! (We’ll teach you how if you haven’t done it before—it’s easy peasy 👍)
✨ Cantaloupe will be at our Earthwise-Cottage Grove adoption event THIS SUNDAY from 11-2!✨
Come on by to give him some snuggles or learn more about him here: https://www.petfinder.com/cat/cantaloupe-59410235/wi/whitewater/community-cat-inc-wi353/
Mr. Maple is starting to come out of his shell…🥹
Maple came into foster care terrified of humans, with airplane ears and big saucer eyes. Very slowly, he got used to being in a home. As his comfort and curiosity grew, Maple began to enjoy exploring out and about in the house in the midst of the action. He is a wonderful uncle to the other foster kittens and will verrryyy carefully take treats from people.
Maple may not be a lap cat, but he would make a fantastic ornamental house cat (or woodworking/shop buddy). He has the cutest facial expressions, is sweet as can be, and is great with cats and dogs. A quiet, joyful soul just looking for a soft place to land 💕

In preparation for #GivingTuesday here’s Mouse 🐭 and Magic 🪄 Both rescued from Chicago Animal Control this year and were both on a quick euthanasia deadline. We had just hours and with Mouse, minutes, to transfer them out into a foster home.
Both had no use of their back legs and we didn’t know if they could use the litter box on their own.
With time, love, comfort, food and warmth- BOTH of these tuxedo boys walked again (and used the litter box on their own!)
We are so happy and proud to say they were both adopted quickly into their forever homes and we have our incredible supporters to thank! (Without donations, transporters, foster homes and adopters, none of this would be possible!) We hope Magic and Mouse are scampering about causing all the ruckus they’ve so rightfully earned 🖤
We have some AMAZING news to share!! 🥹
You may remember our grumpy older girl Klaus… After almost 3 years in foster care, we weren’t sure that she would ever be adopted. She kept to herself and didn’t love sharing a home with other cats. But a wonderful adopter gave her a shot and Klaus is THRIVING as a solo girl—even asking for pets!
We’re so grateful to Klaus’s foster for giving her a soft spot to land and to her adopter for taking a chance on a shy cat. We can’t wait to see how she continues to blossom. Just goes to show that you can’t judge a cat by its cover! 💕
Check out Mama Safari’s transformation! 🤩
Safari came to us as a young street cat—starving, dehydrated, exhausted, but determined to protect her young litter of kittens. There were many moments in her treatment that we weren't sure she was going to survive the night or the days that followed.
Against all odds, Safari pushed forward with some TLC from her foster fam and is now a healthy, happy, gorgeous girl ready and eager for her very own home. Once she gets to know you, she loves getting snuggles and forehead rubs. She would do well with other low-key pets.

As some of you may know, we have made the very tough decision to close to intake for the time being, so we aren’t able to take in any new cats into our rescue. It may last a week, it could last a month. We really don’t know. There are a number of reasons for this, but the main ones are both financial and for the mental and physical wellbeing of our volunteers. We’ve had several very costly hospitalizations and specialty surgeries that has left our bank account basically empty (just Crescendo and Whinney alone have been around $7,000 in vet bills🤑).
We don’t for one minute regret spending the money to save these precious souls, but we are only able to help the ones we can financially commit to.
Speaking of money pit…😉 we do have some good news! Little Whinney (who spent 3 full days at the emergency vet) has become a new kitten! She’s playing like crazy and eating like a horse. We took a chance on this little fighter and she’s overcome so much! We really couldn’t be happier with her progress!
Crescendo too has gotten a clean bill of health after his megacolon surgery! He’ll likely always need some additional medications, but he should otherwise lead a normal, full life.
If you’re able to donate, please do! If you can’t donate, SHARE SHARE SHARE! We would love to reopen for intake and can use all the help we can get!
Crescendo would like to thank everyone who donated towards his surgery. He’s back in his foster home and doing really well! He’s even begun work back at the biscuit factory. The bill for his lifesaving surgery for megacolon was as large as we expected 🤑. Thus far, we raised only a fraction of the total, so if you’re able, please donate. If not, we could use all the shares we can get!
Happy National Kitten Day!! Meet Armstrong.
This rambunctious boy is 100% rough and tumble with his litter mates. All in the name of fun of course. And if you ask him, he always wins the wrestling match. Sadly the WWE isn't hiring so Armstrong has to settle for his second choice career. House cat. He would love a playful cat sibling to practice his moves on. Even better if they're a challenge. He can be a little shy in new situations but it doesn't take much to get the purr machine going.
And if fame doesn't come calling, Armstrong will be just as happy with his at home wrestling matches, wand toys and face scritches. He guesses. If he has to 😒
Learn more about him here:

Or, better yet…visit him at Pet Supplies Plus in Whitewater!
This is Meat Eater, a brave soul we recently trapped at our TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) project. Our initial intention was to help him with a suspected broken leg, but what we discovered shattered our hearts instead. Meat Eater had been SHOT "quite some time ago," and his hip was in a devastating state, leaving us with no choice but to amputate.
While we may be uncertain about his disposition towards humans at this point, one thing is certain: Meat Eater is finally on the path to recovery. He now finds solace in a safe environment, away from the constant agony he endured for far too long.
Please send all your healing vibes his way.

Are your cats not quite as clean as they could be? Or maybe they’re downright filthy. Then I have just the cat for you! Mutt is a first rate cat cleaner. He gets great satisfaction in bathing his feline (and human) companions squeaky clean. Not only will you get the most top of the line cat cleaner an adoption fee could buy, but you’ll also get a super confident, sweet lap cat.
But wait, there’s more! Mutt is a social butterfly who enjoys meeting strangers. Yes, you heard me right! A cat who runs to the door to meet new people. An offer like this doesn’t come around every day, so you’re going to want to jump at this opportunity. Don’t wait!
And for a very limited time, we have a special offer - mutt will act as the softest, purriest weighted blanket laying on your chest while you sleep. Act fast! This offer won’t last long!
Fine Print: While you may experience a great night’s sleep and suddenly cleaner skin from a Mutt bath, side effects such as nipping can occur from overstimulation (so a cat savvy, no kid home would be best!)
