This is Frank he has been in foster with my rescue for nearly two years , he was not eligible for transport adoption due to behavioral issues. I noticed Frank in severe dental pain while eating , today he had a dental cleaning and multiple extractions at a cost of 417$ , he will be on meds and pain relief inside this week. He is scheduled to go into a working cat program next week so I assured he will be pain free going forward. If you can help with a small donation to his medical costs it would be greatly appreciated. ( Copy of bill included ) thank you

Uh-Oh… The BIG NO-NO!!!

One of the most horrifying things that we see are people arriving at the spay/neuter clinic with cats loose in their car or opening carriers with car doors open to separate the cats into individual carriers or even just to pet them. And it happens at veterinary clinics, pet stores, and people traveling with their cats.

We’ve done multiple posts on cats lost under these exact situations, and it is heartbreaking when it happens. Most of the time the people feel terrible (yes, there are times they don’t :( - but MOST do) – but for some reason, they never believe it will happen to THEIR cat. We are here to say – BELIEVE! Do NOT open a carrier in a parking lot, or any open space. Cats are fast, and have strong survival instincts – they are in a carrier and they have the urge to escape. Or a loud noise happens right as you open the door. Or a sudden movement scares them. Or … any number of things can happen, but what is important is that you work to prevent the happening in the first place!

The older kitten pictured was one such cat who escaped in a busy parking lot at a clinic, and she was feral as well. Fortunately for her some concerned rescuers set up feeding stations, set traps and cameras and didn’t give up…..and after 8 weeks she was trapped, spayed, vaccinated and returned to her colony. Unfortunately not all of the cats and kittens who get away are so lucky.

We are re-running this post to remind everyone, don’t open those carriers. And make sure the carriers are secure. And make sure you HAVE a carrier, don’t travel with your cat loose in a car! Even the most well-seasoned travelling cat can get out – we have a lot of sad stories, don’t add to them, please!

Hello , Pretty kitty Miami rescue has been struggling financially to remain operational, I fear we are in our final few months before I must close my rescue, my lease is up in October. I have many kittens now fully vetted and waiting for transport adoption , which is notoriously slow going during kitten season with every rescue / shelter full we just don’t have enough adopters. I’m in desperate need of funds and food , if anyone is in the position to donate to a small but very active cat / kitten rescue I would appreciate it. Thank you
