**Rudolph & Chickadee have a meet and greet lined up.
I have two amazing babies looking for homes!
Rudolph is a very playful, outgoing, loving orange male. He would fit in well in any loving home. Ready to go home next Thursday! Approximately 9 weeks old.
Chickadee has become the most affectionate little thing since her siblings all got adopted. She's super gentle and loving! She might not love really young rambunctious kids but otherwise she would fit in well anywhere. Her vetting is complete. Approximately 10 weeks old.
Rudolph is fostered in Mt Vernon and Chickadee in Utica.
Applications can be found at rockrescue. org.
Please help share. These babies need to be in homes for Christmas 🎄❤️.

****Boys were adopted. Chickadee is available!
My fosters are ready for homes!
I really hope they can find their families before Christmas 🎄 💗.
They all came from the same barn however Turkey is a single from one litter and the other 3 are from another litter. Turkey is approximately 15 weeks and the 3 are approximately 10 weeks.
Turkey is over the top sweet. He cries if you walk by without loving on him. Jay and Lark are also very sweet and gentle boys. Chickadee is getting more brave every day but she is a bit shy. All are super gentle and playful babies!! Lark looks like a little lynx baby and Jay looks like he might have some siamese mixed in. All gorgeous!!!
Everyone is spayed/neutered, vaccines started, microchipped, and fiv/felv tested negative.
They are used to other cats and very curious and want to play with my dog.
Fostered in Utica (45 minutes NE of Columbus).

We wanted to keep our amazing followers up to date with what’s been going on. As giving Tuesday is around the corner, we wanted to tally up what has happened in just October and November...

Today alone, 15 feral cats were spayed and neutered 😻 Of these cats, one needed a tail amputation due to an injury, and another has been limping for quite some time. This is probably the only time these cats will get vet care in their entire lives!

In the month of October, we fixed 55 cats! In November we took a little bit of a break and only squeezed in 51 cats 😉 We cannot do this work without all of your support!

So if you have a few dollars to spare, it will help us continue this work of preventing unwanted kittens and improving the lives of feral cats in the community!

Pictured below, the lucky 15 this morning, tucked nice and cozy in their traps!

Ravenna is ready for her furever family. She came to me a very scared, very crabby, very hissy kitten.
She is small, certainly the runt.
She also was the feral momma’s favorite.

She is very spunky and independent.
She loves her foster brother, Manny. She love toys. All toys. Especially her string toy and fake mice.

I think she would do best in a house with another young, playful cat.

That said— she is fairly chill for kitten. So she could thrive in a house where her humans will have a lot of time with her.

She likes to be in the same room as her humans and will sit pretty close by.

Ravenna thrives on love and patience. She has to be ready on her own terms. Her new furever family needs to have a 2 to 1 ratio of patience and love.

I can assure you she is worth it. She’s a superstar. She’s brave and I’m very proud of her!

Send us a message to learn how to make this special girl part of your family!

This gorgeous girl is STILL waiting! Where are our long hair cat lovers at?! Please share this girl with your family and friends!

She does well with other cats, she loves attention and is quite the character!

Hey— hey you. Yeah, hi… I’m Penelope. Do you remember what it was like living with a lot of other people? Like maybe in college or when you were young. Well, I lived with 20 other cats. It was a lot. Like more than a lot.

So like, I like other cats… but have you tried sharing a litter box with with 20 housemates?! Madness. Another cat friend — cool. But more than 4… maybe not.

So here’s the deal. Those cats got on my 9th nerve. But I am trying to be chill about things. These ladies at ROCK have promised me, if I try and be cool, there are certainly some people out there, who would love to welcome me into their home, feed me, help me learn to relax— no more worrying that some cat would steal my spot in the sun, take my breakfast, and randomly pick a fight.

These ladies also said that these wonderful people would let me warm up slowly, would not pick me up with no warning, and give me treats. I do like people, I’m just ya know, kinda feeling out this calmer, more laid back life.

They also told me that I would have toys all my own— especially the plastic springs… man those are the best. I’d love one in every color. I also like the crunchy treats. I like pets and I think I’d love a spot on the couch all my own. Do what do you say… I’ll let you pick the shows, you can have a beverage and we can hang out and chill! I’m ready… how about you?

I am currently hanging out at Petsmart Easton, so you could meet me in person, I'd like that... until then, I'll wait for your arrival 😸 applications can be found at rockrescue.org

***Pending adoption! That was quick! 🎉
Meet Bay! This SWEET boy came all the way from Roatan, one of the Bay islands in Honduras. Yes that's right Honduras!!! We are so thrilled to be able to help another rescue Flight Angels of Roatan who work so hard to provide a future for their island kitties.
When I tell you this boy is sweet, that's an understatement! He spends his days loving on all the cats in his foster home and at night sleeps curled up on his foster mom's neck. I instantly fell in love when I met him. Both his foster mom and I are sad that we don't have room to adopt him! He follows his foster family around all day, loves playing and being held. If you are looking for a velcro kitty he's your boy. 💗
He has two dogs at his foster home and even though he hadn't previously met a dog he's making great progress.
Bay is approximately 5 months old, vaccinated, neutered, fiv/felv tested negative and microchipped.
Fostered in Gambier.
Applications can be found at rockrescue.org.
*Previous name was Montana for everyone who knew about him.
Please help share our boy!!! 🥰

Say hi to Erin & Erika!
They are two very active teens who love to play and then purr up a storm on your lap. They prefer to interact with people who are sitting, they can be a little shy with a lot of activity around. They love being petted and brushed and just need time to adjust to new people. They are perfect with their litter box and not fussy eaters. They are a bit unsure but intrigued by dogs and other cats. I think they would adjust over time. They are bonded because they were abandoned together at a park as young kittens. They are spayed and have always been very healthy despite their early neglect. We prefer to try to find a home for them together. They have been in foster care for a while with no interest 😕.
Fostered in Granville. Applications can be found at rockrescue. org. Please help share!!!! I will put more photos and videos in comments.

Located in Mt Vernon.
Please help share. She is truly an amazing cat!
