🆘🆘🆘We have $67.18 in our rescue account. That’s it. Not even enough to cover the cost of a single spay.🆘🆘🆘

This is not just a rough patch—this is a crisis.

We have over 20 kittens waiting to be fixed. Until they are, they can’t be adopted. And until they’re adopted, we’re stuck—unable to take in more. Every day, we get calls about stray moms, litters of abandoned kittens,… and we’re out of room, out of funds, and rapidly running out of hope.

We’ve taken in more cats and kittens this year alone than we have in any previous year. The need has exploded—and we’ve tried to step up every single time, without hesitation. But now we are completely drained. We’ve poured our own personal money into vet bills, food, supplies, and emergency care. We can’t keep going like this. Not with only $67 left in the bank.

It’s gut-wrenching to even write this, but if we don’t raise funds immediately, we will have no choice but to shut down our rescue operations entirely.

💔 Please, if you’ve ever thought about donating—this is the moment we need you.
Even $5 helps.
Even sharing this post helps.

We are small. We don’t have corporate sponsors. We don’t have government funding. We have you—our community, our supporters, the people who believe in these tiny lives like we do.

If we can pull together now, we can get these kittens fixed, adopted, and open space to keep saving lives. But we can’t do it alone. We’re begging.

🙏 Please help us keep going.

Stop giving away kittens for free!

“Free” Kittens Aren’t Really Free…
They might not come with a price tag — but they do come with a lot of hidden costs:

💉 Vaccines: $30–$100
🐱 Spay/Neuter: $75–$300
🧪 FeLV/FIV Testing: $25–$50
💊 Deworming & Flea Treatment: $20–$60
📍 Microchip: $20–$50
🩺 Vet Exam: $50–$100

Total? Easily $300–$600+ out of pocket.
And that’s if everything goes smoothly.



When You Adopt From Us…
You’re not just paying an adoption fee — you’re getting peace of mind and saving a life.

✅ Fully vetted kittens
✅ Spayed/neutered
✅ Microchipped
✅ Vaccinated
✅ Dewormed
✅ Flea prevention
✅ Combo tested
✅ Socialized and loved in foster care

Our adoption fee covers all of that — and helps us rescue the next life in need. 💛

Feline Fact Friday ...

Did you know ... A litter of kittens can have multiple fathers ⁉️

This time of year is usually spent gathering kittens and securing the mama cat because it's more obvious to everyone that she and her kittens need help. 🚩But let's not forget those male cats.

*Female cats release several eggs per ovulation, and these eggs are released after she mates. All of the female cat’s eggs are released at the same time and survive for 24 hours. Therefore, if she mates with several males, each egg has the potential to be fertilized by any of their s***m (superfecundation).*

💔 These tomcats are simply doing what comes naturally - But the life of an unneutered tom is HARSH. While following their instincts to breed, their life is riddled with fights, disease, injuries, and danger.

Be kind to your male feline and have him fixed for a safer life!

Thank you .

Usually we don't have a problem getting our cats adopted, but for some reason we've had these cuties for way too long!

We have some great cats and kittens here waiting to be adopted. 2 of them had to have their legs amputated, but that's not slowing them down any. These purr machines can't wait to cuddle up on your lap! Don't make them stay here another night! Adopt today!

🍼 Kitten Food Donations Needed! 🍼

We are in urgent need of kitten food donations! With so many little mouths to feed — and some very opinionated eaters in the mix — we’ve had to expand our wishlist to include a variety of brands and flavors to make sure everyone is getting enough to eat.

Some of our kittens are still obsessed with Fancy Feast Kitten pate, while others prefer different textures or flavors. (Who knew tiny fuzzballs could be such food critics?) 😹

Whether it’s one can or a case, every single donation makes a difference. With your help, we can keep bellies full and tails wagging while these babies grow strong enough to find their forever homes.

💖 No donation is too small — thank you for always showing up for our kittens!

Handing off free kittens may be getting rid of your immediate problem, but you're literally handing off the problem to someone else. 😞

When people call us for help with spay and neuter, this is one of the most common reasons:

"We rescued this kitten from a lady to help her out, but we really can't afford to get her fixed."

At least they called, MOST do not. 😢

If you TRULY care about cats and kittens and the well-being of them all, you will stop and think before handing off free kittens to the first person who contacts you. And you will spay the mom cat ASAP. ✅ You can safely rehome kittens yourself with an adoption process, but I would encourage you to reach out to a shelter or rescue for guidance on how to do that correctly.

We all need to be aware of the bigger picture and work together to MAKE SURE these mom cats and kittens are all getting fixed before landing in a home. It is not the new owner's responsibility. It is not the old owner's responsibility. It's not a volunteer organization's responsibility.

‼️ It is EVERYONE's responsibility to make sure spay/neuter happens ‼️

Please do not take healthy kittens from their mother if under 5/6 weeks.

If you find a litter of healthy young kittens outside - (under a bush, deck, or in a shed) - please leave them alone. Mom will be back soon to take care of them.

Kitten-napping with the intention of bringing the babies to the local shelter can end in euthanization as there aren't enough bottle-feeding volunteers, and those that are available are likely already overwhelmed with truly abandoned or ill kittens. Unfortunately, without resources, the shelter will have no choice.

We can't say it enough; the best place for a healthy neonatal kitten is with its mom!

Once the kittens have learned to eat on their own, they can be taken to rescue, and mom cat can be TNRed and/or adopted. Until then, please leave the kittens be!

❗️If a rescue/shelter/foster isn't available for kittens over 8 weeks and they must remain community cats, PLEASE make sure to get them fixed and vaccinated between 3 & 4 months of age so the breeding cycle ends. Kittens can start getting pregnant at 4 months.
