What are we up too today?
An early morning run to Polk County Animal Control to pull 3 tiny sickly kittens AND we end up with a carful. Cat math… it just adds up!

Sweet Morgana came from Project Earl. Her person died and left so many cats needing new homes. Morgana needs spayed and she needs a good deal of dental work. She has an appt on Tuesday. We are not sure how much it will cost until it is determined exactly how many teeth need to come out.

please consider adopting this sweet girl once she's ready. Please consider helping her along the way. You can mark your donations for Morgana. Thank you!

Hello friends. We could use your help.
Last week a man died in the more rural part of Cu***ng leaving 34 cats behind (count as of last Friday). His cousin is trying to keep them alive, but he's overwhelmed both with the magnitude of the effort, as well as its economics. He says he's buried about 10 of them already. 💔

Tuesday Thall Hagood (a volunteer at our Canton location) and I drove out there last Friday, to do a fact-finding mission, and to take him about 120 pounds of cat food. The condition of the cats range from worrisome to tragic. All of them seem to have severe fleas and worms, they all look incredibly emaciated, and none of them seem to be thriving.

We've decided to save as many of these cats as we possibly can, but this comes at such a difficult time with the worst kitten season I have ever seen, and abandonments and relinquishments at an all-time high. Just our spay/neuter/vet bills this last couple months has been a worrying 5-digit fortune. And our foster network and volunteer resources are also stretched to their limits.

So I'm asking for special donations for this particular "Project Earl" as I'm calling it (the name of the deceased man's cousin).
And I'm also asking for any fosters who may have room to volunteer their space, time, and expertise.

What darkness of the soul compels people to do this? 💔🙀🤬

A Roswell man pleaded guilty Monday to shooting at least two cats with a crossbow, killing one and severely injuring another.

Meet Kimmy. Her foster mom, Naomi, is very worried about her. She is 3-4 weeks old and came in with 2 ruptured eyes. She will be blind for life. We don't want to show close up pictures that are graphic. Otherwise, Kimmy is strong and wants a chance at a good life. We are caring for Kimmy and getting her what she needs right now. She is prob 8-12 weeks from being ready for adoption at least. But we wanted everyone to be aware of her, to send some prayers her way for good health and the perfect family. Please tell your friends and family about her. We are hoping while she grows, to find someone experienced with blind pets who will love her like we do and give her a wonderful life. Kimmy!!
