This week is going to be excruciatingly hot! Please leave fresh water out for our stray, community and feral cats.
They didn’t ask for this to be their life. Be kind and help them by simply leaving out a bowl of clean water. Thank you!

The one and only Bob Fagin is ready to find his furever home!
For those who don’t know his story, Fagin was rescued from East Durham as a stray. He sustained a serious wound to his leg after being attacked by another animal. He spent the past six months receiving care that ultimately saved his leg. He needed bandage changes (twice a week in the beginning) which most cats would need sedated for but not Bob Fagin! Being the totally chill, superstar cat he is, he always let the vet do whatever they needed to do without any fight.
Bob Fagin is one of the sweetest, chillest, fluffiest cats you will ever meet. He is commonly referred to as pure purrfection. This big ball of fluff loves to be pet, brushed and given all of your attention. He has been treated like the king he is (as he should be) for the past months and he expects no differently in his furever home. Fagin is seeking a home where he is the one and only (no others cats or dogs please). Fagin is FIV+ but don’t let that deter you from adopting the most amazing cat ever. Most FIV+ cats live long, healthy and happy lives like any cat.
Bob Fagin is estimated to be 4-5 years old. He is a big boy weighing in at over 15lbs. If you are interested in meeting this sweet man, please fill out our adoption application!

The wonders of tube feeding 😻
Doofenshmirtz was rescued with his siblings from the East Durham colony as orphans at only hours old. He had a rough start but tube feeding and around the clock TLC saved his life. He is now one very happy and healthy kitten who is growing up so quickly!

Everyday this cat amazes us ❤️
It’s been 6 months since 15 year old Mouse was diagnosed with cancer, a severe heart murmur and a bullet found lodged in his hip. All of this was so scary to find out at the time as we didn’t know what type of quality of life he would have or how much time he had left. Well, you would never know he has so much going on inside because on the outside, he is just perfect!
He spends everyday enjoying lots of pets and cuddles. He eats up a storm enjoying lots of wet food and his favorite, chicken. He is the sweetest boy who will climb up your leg to get into your arms where he will then give hugs. He is living the life of a king!

Baked goods needed!

Donations from this little bake sale will help to fundraise for the many, never ending vet bills that come along with kitten season. If you love kitties and baking, please send us a message if you would like to donate a baked good.

These 3 little voles found their way into an unsuspecting Lowe’s customer’s bale of straw. They were discovered when the family got home today. We saw their post in a local community group, desperate to find help for these now tiny orphans. They couldn’t find a rehabber nearby who would accept them. When we saw some of the cruel suggestions people suggested for these little ones, we said we would pick them up and hoped the pieces would all fall into place. With the help of Mary, we were able to get into contact with Terri, a great rehabber who was willing to take them in right away. They are now safe and recieving all the care they need which will allow them the chance to get to grow up.
All creatures, big and small have value. Be kind.
“If I am killed for simply living, let death be kinder than man.”

A kitten named Pigeon 😻

05/06/2024

These beauties were rescued from the East Durham colony about two weeks ago (pictures of what they looked like upon rescue in the comments below). They had bad eye infections that have now completely cleared up with the help of antibiotics and TLC. They are still getting used to people but they are loving all the luxuries that come with the indoor life like endless toys, kitty beds and yummy food!

It’s been both healing and bittersweet to watch Mighty Max’s siblings (pending names) run amok and simply enjoy being kittens. This is how it should be.
They are happy, warm, safe and fed surrounded by all the kitty toys they can dream of 💕🐾

Kitten season is in full swing which means we are going through kitten food like crazy! With newly rescued weaned kittens and bottle babies transitioning onto real food, we are in great need of canned kitten food. We have updated our kitten season wish list. Please consider visiting it if you are would like to help support the rescue kitties. Thank you for your continued support!

We are heartbroken to have to share that Mighty Max passed away this afternoon. The promising improvements he made yesterday were short lived. He crashed this morning and went immediately back to the vet. He was given more fluids, another convenia injection and an antibiotic injection. The vet told us that his prognosis was very poor but all we could do was to just keep doing what we were doing. We took him home and did everything we could.
When wouldn’t eat, we tube fed him. When he couldn’t groom himself, we cleaned him.
When he couldn’t stay warm on his own, we warmed him up.
And when he couldn’t fight anymore, we loved him. He was held in our arms, cuddled and loved until the end. We told him how strong he was and assured him that everything was going to be okay, that he didn’t have to fight anymore. Through tears we told him how loved he was by so many and how much he mattered. His story is why we do what we do. Because no kitten should be born just to suffer. We hope he knew how loved he was and how much of an impact he will forever leave on us. His legacy will help to give many kitties the second chance he deserved so greatly. We are so sorry you didn’t get to grow up little one. You deserved to experience everything you fought so hard to reach. Rest in peace our sweet boy. You may have been tiny but you were oh so mighty 💔

Mighty Max made it through the first crucial night and has continued to make small steps in the right direction today!
He is being syringe fed small amounts of critical care wet food and unflavored pedilayte every hour. He is receiving supportive care around the clock. We were truthfully very concerned with how lethargic and just pitifully sad he looked when he was at the vet yesterday and for the few hours following. Around midnight last night he began to show some signs of hope. He had his ups and downs throughout the night but the positives slowly began to outweigh the negatives. Today he has a bit more energy and we can see a small glimpse of his normal self which we have dearly missed since he began to decline. He has begun to meow a little bit and even get up to walk out of the incubator when it’s time to eat. He has been maintaining his temperature much better today so he was able to enjoy some snuggles. While he isn’t eating on his own, he did show interest in the food in his bowl today and took a few small tastes. The Cerenia injection he received yesterday for nausea has helped him to keep everything in and stop him from gagging when he smells his food. He had three solid bowel movements today which is amazing considering yesterday he was having uncontrollable diarrhea. He has gained weight overnight and kept it on throughout the day today.
We are thrilled to see such amazing progress but we are still taking things hour by hour. Kittens are fragile and Max is fighting a lot of tough things with a very weak and frail body. If he can continue to keep fighting, it will take time for his body to catch up.
Tonight is another crucial night as the vet advised these 48 hours will basically be make it or break it. He will continue to be syringe fed and cared for every hour on the hour tonight. Max is mighty on his own but even stronger with an amazing army of people supporting him. Your continued prayers are appreciated. Mighty Max continues to show such resilience and such a strong will to live. He is fighting so hard to stay and we so badly want him to be able to overcome this.

Max went to the vet tonight after he started suddenly declining last night. His body is weak and he is tired. He is battling many different things at once. A f***l test confirmed that he has a bad case of coccidia. Along with being failure to thrive, he may also be dealing with congenital issues that we can’t see from the outside. Unfortunately the outlook right now is grim and the vet is concerned but we are doing everything we can. The next 48 hours are key but really, making it through the night tonight is our first challenge. At this point, we are holding our breath and hoping for the best. Max received fluids at the vet to help battle the dehydration that the diarrhea is causing him. He also received an injection of Cerenia (an anti-nausea) to help settle his tummy. He is now being syringe fed prescription critical care wet food. He was prescribed a new probiotic and he is on medicine for coccidia. He is struggling with maintaining his body temperature so he will be staying in an incubator with an additional heat source to help take away one more stressor on his body while he fights everything else. We are heartbroken to hear such bad odds but we aren’t giving up. Max still has that glimmer of hope in his eyes. He wants so badly to stay here. We will continue to fight alongside him as long as he shows us that he wants to keep going. He may be tiny but he is so mighty.
Thank you to everyone who donated towards his care at the vet today! We are so extremely grateful. His bill of $335 was covered today because of your kindness and generosity. This helped to ease one big stressor off of us so we can focus on just being there for Max and doing everything that we possibly can to help try to pull him through this. If he makes it through the night, he will get more follow up care from the vet. Now we just ask that you pray for our sweet Max and keep him in your thoughts. He needs as much strength as he can to overcome the tough hurdles thrown at him at such a young age. We will keep everyone updated. Thank you.

Mighty Max has an appointment to be seen at East Greenbush Animal Hospital tonight. We want to be able to do whatever we can to get this sweet boy feeling better. He is so deserving of the chance to be able to grow up and just enjoy being a kitten. If you are able to, please consider making a donation towards his care. We appreciate it more than you know. Thank you!

Mighty Max has declined overnight so we are calling the vet today to see if we can get him seen. With it being kitten season, these medical cases take a toll and the vet bills are never ending. If you are able to, please considering donating towards Max’s vet appointment. We can’t do what we do without you!
For a quick rundown of Max’s rescue story, this sweet boy was rescued from the East Durham colony a week ago on the brink of death. He was lethargic, cold, emaciated, anemic, his eyes were stuck shut from an eye infection and he had a dangerously low blood sugar. We worked quickly to help stabilize him. Against all odds, Max began to come around and make progress these last few days. At 6 weeks old, he weighs only a little over 300 grams (he should be more than double that). Max has struggled with tummy troubles while adjusting to food and clearing out the nasty parasites in his system. He also passed small rocks and sticks in the litter box which is what he must have been eating to try to stay alive when he had no food. Max’s appetite has now decreased and his weight is dropping. He is now dealing with some serious diarrhea which is not only very dangerous for how small he is due to the risk of dehydration but also, we can tell he isn’t feeling himself. If you too have fallen in love with Tiny but Mighty Max, please consider making a donation towards his care. This little one deserves so greatly to get over this bump in the road so he can finally enjoy just being a happy, healthy kitten who eventually can join his 4 siblings (who were also rescued) to romp around and play. Thank you!
We will update with information to donate directly to the vet office as soon as we get an appointment.

Today we celebrate!
After almost 7 months of many vet appointments, including bandage changes twice a week and lots of TLC, our sweet boy got the all clear from the vet!
Bob Fagin was rescued from East Durham after being attacked by another animal that left him with an injured leg that was severely infected. His recovery was long and he had his ups and downs along the way but he was the most purrfect boy through it all. Today he enjoyed a party to celebrate his long awaited full recovery!
Thank you to each and everyone of you who donated towards Fagin’s extensive and expensive vet bills which made it possible for us to do everything we needed to get him feeling better. Thank you to Lynn Roberts for transporting Fagin to many of his appointments. And a big thank you to Boght Veterinary Clinic and River Valley Veterinary Services for giving our sweet boy the best of the best care! We are thrilled for Bob Fagin, the sweetest boy who shows how grateful he is to be rescued every single day. 😆 💕🐾

The “Hockey Team” is having a fantastic time at PetAPalooza! Make sure to come by to enjoy some kitten cuteness 😻

Tonight’s rescue mission at East Durham! The mama and 4 siblings to the very sick kitten who was rescued on Sunday. Stay tuned!

Look who’s already beating the odds! The little one who was rescued from the East Durham colony yesterday on death’s door is slowly improving (story posted yesterday). He was found emaciated, dehydrated, hypothermic, hypoglycemic, lethargic and anemic. He was riddled with fleas and ticks that were basically eating him alive. He has a long road ahead of him but the progress he made overnight is a major step in the right direction. He is receiving medical care and being cared for around the clock. He is a fighter! Tiny but mighty 💕🐾

Kitten playtime!

These little ones (who were rescued from East Durham) are at a very fun age! At 4-5 weeks old, these itty bitty babies are on the move! They are becoming more sturdy on their feet and they are very curious about the things around them. Watch and enjoy these cuties enjoy some playtime today 😸

From living a very hard life on the streets to hamming it up at an adoption event. 😻 Dreamy is making lots of biscuits at Mohawk Honda’s Spring Pet Adoption event!

Yesterday while looking for the mom of the 7 kittens that were found at the East Durham colony on Friday night, we found another litter of 5 brand new kittens. We set traps for their mom as well but she never showed up to answer the kittens’ cries. We took them to get them warmed up and fed. We will set traps again tonight. As of right now, we are bottle and tube feeding all 12 of them! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3K1TO6DS604RC?ref_=list_d_wl_ys_list_1

Another polyp surgery! Please donate if you can! Pocus, a 5 month old kitten who was rescued from under a house with his mom and siblings, went to the vet on Friday where it was confirmed he has a polyp that needs removed. We originally had the surgery scheduled for the soonest available appointment on the 5th but over the past few days we became more concerned about Pocus’s breathing, appetite and energy level. Our amazing vet office was able to fit him in for surgery tomorrow (Thursday) when they saw the video of how his breathing has changed over just a few days. This makes us very concerned about a breathing emergency occurring with how quickly this polyp seems to be growing so we are so grateful they were able to fit him into an already booked schedule. With multiple back to back surgeries and a spay/neuter clinic tomorrow as well, we greatly need your support! Pocus’s care will be just over $600. This surgery will provide him with much needed immediate relief and he will be able to breathe, eat and be able to enjoy being a happy, healthy kitten. If you are able to, please consider making a donation towards Pocus’s lifesaving care! We desperately need your support as of right now, this is all coming out of pocket which just isn’t sustainable and kitten season is just beginning. We need your help to continue being able to help save more lives. Thank you! Donate Directly to the Vet: Call East Greenbush Animal Hospital at (518) 477-7400.

The mama of the kitten who was rescued with chemical burns yesterday is now safe and she couldn’t be anymore thankful! Thank you Mary Seeley and Animalkind! Mama and her baby will be reunited tomorrow 💕

Yogi was rescued from Ravena at only a few hours ago when he was found orphaned and frozen to the ground. Today he is celebrating his 8 week birthday! A big milestone for a kitten, especially an itty bitty bottle baby. As you can see, Yogi is very happy about it! Can you help Yogi celebrate his birthday by getting some much needed kitten food for him and his friends? It would be much appreciated as kitten season has begun!
