The babies are 8 weeks old!! They’re on antibiotics now for an upper respiratory infection and conjunctivitis but overall they are little playful goblins! They’re around me 24/7 and always wanting to play ❤️🐾

Let’s just say, feeding the colony in the snow sucks!! But we feed them everyday no matter if it’s 100 degrees or 0! It was nice seeing all the babies using their shelters! ❤️🐾

The little bears are 3 weeks old now!! They are exploring like crazy and keep getting into trouble. Just a reminder we still desperately need donations for the colony and for the fosters! We have a go fund me and a Amazon wishlist if anybody’s interested in helping us out ❤️

Happy national feral cats day!!! Here is some facts on Community cats and why we do what we do.
“Community Cats” is a term used to describe outdoor, unowned, free-roaming cats. These cats could be friendly, feral, adults, kittens, healthy, sick, altered and/or unaltered. They may or may not have a caregiver. By this definition, the only outdoor free-roaming cats who are not community cats are those who have an owner.
The community cats face many challenges
• They must endure weather extremes such as cold and snow, heat and rain.
• Community cats face starvation, infection and attacks by other animals.
• Unfortunately, almost half of the kittens born outdoors die from disease, exposure or parasites before their first year.
• Community cats face eradication by humans. Poison, trapping, gassing and steel leg-hold traps are all ways that humans—including some animal control and government agencies—try to kill off community cat populations.
If a community cat survives kittenhood, his average lifespan is less than two years if living on his own. If a cat is lucky enough to be in a colony that has a caretaker, he may reach 10 years. Community cats who live in a managed colony—a colony with a dedicated caretaker who provides spay/neuter services, regular feedings and proper shelter—can live a quite content life.
In our colony we TNRM, Trap-Neuter-Return-Monitor.
We trap the kitties, fix them, then we return them to the colony. We continue to feed them every single day; in the rain, snow, negative degree days, and the 100 degree days. We provide adequate shelter and we continue to monitor them for health issues.
Our Colony Cats are NOT cuddly lap cats, you are lucky if they come within 2 feet of you. But we love them regardless, we name them and we mourn the losses. Without us the colony cats would not survive. It is a thankless job but it’s 100% worth it to see our cats gain weight and thrive ❤️🐾

Alice is leaving tonight. She will be getting fixed and vaccinated in the next few days and then taken to her forever home. I’m happy she has a new home but I’m sad she’s leaving. Her new name is Weezy! ❤️

Kitten update!!
Alice is slowly adapting to being indoors. I still am not able to pet her but she’s started playing with me!
The two babies are 9 days old now. Their eyes are open and they’re crawling around. I think they’re starting to get sick so I’m currently giving them eye ointment a few times a day.
Overall everybody is doing good and my heart is so happy! ❤️🐾
12/10/2020
We went and checked on the colony tonight! Everybody is fed and happy 🙂

Another day another foster! We finally caught this feisty baby after trying for a few weeks. We sadly also lost one of our colony kitties 😢

Dobby and Tonks are both getting bigger everyday! I’m so happy that they’re gaining weight and crawling around and sissy is being a great first time mom! ❤️
05/10/2020
There’s nothing I love more than seeing everybody’s clipped ears!! ❤️
04/10/2020
The babies are one day old!! Sissy is doing such a great job at being a first time mom! ❤️😊

Pretty girl kept me company last night! ❤️
30/09/2020
Sissy update!!
She’s being a lot more lovey today and she let me put flea medicine on her! We think she might be pregnant though but we can’t tell for sure. Regardless she’s beginning to fit into our pride and whoever adopts her is going to love her!! ❤️
29/09/2020
We’ve made major improvements today!! Cecelia is a sweetie. She loves my other cats, and she sat there and purred and rubbed on me. All she wanted was love ❤️❤️
28/09/2020
The whole squad came out to eat in the rain tonight! I’m excited to get the rest of our shelters out there to keep them wet and dry 😊

Cecelia is doing a little better today. She ate and drank last night and she used her litter box again! She’s been hanging out on the floor more and not running away from me so we’re making some improvement. I’m still giving her a lot of space, things like this take time. ❤️ I’m going to check on the colony in a few hours and I’m excited to see our babies who were fixed a few days ago. I’m sure a lot of them will be hiding due to the rain but I’m hoping to see Gabe and maybe catch a glimpse of the new kitten who’s showed up. Taking care of a colony and strays is a very thankless job but it’s very much worth it to make sure these babies have a fighting chance. ❤️

Update on Cecelia! She’s still beyond pi**ed. I’ve been giving her space to get adjusted to being indoors. I tried to take a nap in the room with her today so she could get used to me but she was super on edge so I left her alone. She did use the litter box though so that’s a win! I’m hoping this sweet girl gets used to the indoors soon. ❤️🐾

Our newest foster Cecelia is NOT happy right now. We are giving her a calm quiet place to relax and begin to trust us and then we will begin the Socializing process. 🐾💓
26/09/2020
Gabe pulls on my heart strings so much. I wish I could give him a loving home but some cats prefer to live outside and we can’t change that. I will be here to make sure he has food every day and to monitor his health from afar ❤️
26/09/2020
Some of the kitties at our Bellbrook location 😊
