Barn Home Needed:
Sasha (Fierce) is a feral who prefers no human contact or attention. After months of trying we feel she would be better suited to live in the role of a barn cat.
Sasha is spayed, up to date on vaccines, negative for feline aids and leukemia and treated for fleas and ticks.
For more information on our barn cat program please contact us at feralct.org.

Sugar and spice and everything nice that’s what little girls are made of.
Destiny and Summer are sisters who will soon be available for adoption. They are your typical kittens playful one minute and snuggling the next. These girls do not need to be adopted together but each need to live in a home with another kitty. These girls will make great family companions.
They have received their first set of vaccines, tested negative for both FIV and FELV, and will soon be spayed, receive remaining vaccines and microchipped.
To meet these girls please contact us at feralct.org

Barn home needed!
Meet Sasha (Fierce) This beautiful gray tabby girl is fully vetted, negative for feline aids and leukemia and treated with flea and tick prevention.
Sasha is a feral who is not able to return back to where she was originally trapped due to safety concerns.
She prefers being outside in nature to humans and would make an ideal barn cat.
There is no adoption fee for Sasha though we do require a 3-4 week acclimation period for her and give food and water daily.
To learn more about barn cats and specifically Sasha please contact us at feralct.org.

UPDATE: Sadly Lucas passed this morning. It was a heartbreaking decision to make but based on his condition and showing no signs of improvement from day one this sweet soul went to sleep for the last time.
This is a case of a FREE KITTEN being given away.
The original story we were told was that the kitten was hit by a car with the “good Samaritan” looking to find him help. What we found out is that this kitten was injured while in the care of this person who turned out to be his “owner.”
Not knowing this info we spent hours on the phone with the vet hospital and several rescues after being told by the treating hospital the kitten should be euthanized after biting a staff member and showing continued neurological signs. We fought right along side with Lucas with the hopes of him surviving.
His little body wasn’t able to hold on any longer so we did what we felt was the most humane thing to do which was to let him pass.
To the “owner” of this kitten who only goes by a “street name” making it difficult to find out who this POS really is I hope you NEVER own another animal for as long as you live. I’m sure he will as “free kittens” are given away every single day!

A day in the life of rescue…..a fellow rescuer reached out this morning asking if we could help this sweet young kitten found in the road and brought to a local fire dept. He was quickly brought to the emergency vet hospital in Guilford where it was determined he was hit by car resulting in neurological concerns. Lucas, as named by the rescuer, is stable and being cared for at Central Hospital (Guilford location).
This little kitten deserves a chance and we will do all we can to help him.
This will be costly (estimate from Central is in comments) and we can’t do this without you.
Please consider helping Lucas and his chance for survival.

Pick me Pick me!! This handsome will soon be available for adoption. Diesel is a sweet 9 week old found as a singleton with no Mom in sight.
He is quite the “spazzy” little kitten playing and entertaining himself.
He would do best in a home with an existing cat to get into mischief with 😼
He has received his first distemper vaccine and negative for feline aids and leukemia. He will soon receive his remaining vaccines, neuter and microchipping.
Please contact us at feralct.org to meet Diesel.

Olivia, Munch, and Elliott were born outside with no mother in sight. Despite setting traps for weeks, there were no sightings of her. These babies were found climbing up a screen door to a home that luckily reached out to us for help.

These little loves have been in a loving foster home but are now ready to find a home of their own. They’ve received their first set of vaccines, tested negative for FIV/FELV, and treated for parasites. They will be spayed/neutered, microchipped and receive remaining vaccines at their next appt.
They must go to a home with another feline companion or adopted as a pair.

If you answered yes to any of these please continue to read..

CAT TREE RAFFLE - $5 per ticket/entry 🎟️

Amber first entered our care when his family opted for euthanasia at the emergency hospital due to do a foreign body. He was surrendered to us and had emergency surgery.

He re-entered medical treatment a few days later due to not eating and was hospitalized for an additional week. We owe THOUSANDS!

We have ANOTHER brand new Whisker City cat tree that retails at $170, and adjusts 7.5-9 feet that we will be raffling off. Tickets are $5 per entry and we will be doing a virtual drawing to announce the winner on Monday 4/8 - 8pm

Sugar and spice and everything nice that’s what Bella is made of.
Bella has been through so many changes in her life and at just 4 years old she is in need of finding a new home. Her original owner moved and left her behind but lucky for Bella the landlord brought her home to see how she would adjust to a home with another cat. As it turns out she is not fan of other cats and would prefer to be an only cat.
Bella would do best in a home with no other animals or no small children.
We are told Bella likes to be near you but doesn’t seem to enjoy sitting on your lap. However, that may change when she’s in a home without other animals. She may feel more confident without living in fear of another cat.
Bella is 4 years old and spayed, up to date on vaccines, negative for feline aids and leukemia and up to date for flea and tick prevention.

Hi my name is Kittybear!

I have an interesting story! I found some loving humans in Beaverhills as they were gardening in September. With the help of feline friendly neighbors, they took care of me and fed me, and eventually brought me inside when no one claimed me. A neighbor said somebody was renting an apartment nearby, moved and just left their cat. I am so grateful I was rescued. I am looking for my furever home since my foster family has several members who are allergic to me.

I love people, kids and lots of play. I will wait for you when you come home from work and I’m there first thing in the morning when you wake up. I’m not a cat that just sits and naps all day, although I do love to snuggle, I really love to play and im great with my two human sisters! I really love having my face scratched. I love music and having a window to look outside too!

🐱 I am about one years old
🐱Up-to-date on vaccines
🐱Spayed
🐱Microchipped
🐱House trained
🐱 tested negative for fiv/felv

🐈‍⬛Please message me directly if interested in this loving cat.

🐈‍⬛Small adoption fee to contribute to care.

🐈‍⬛Serious commitments only

We want to take this opportunity to thank those that help us to help cats in need in our community

Thank you to everyone who have donated financially or with much needed supplies.

Thank you to our amazing and selfless foster homes. You open your homes to help the homeless cats and kittens who come in needing immediate vet care, patience and understanding. We are so grateful for the time and love you give each one that enter your homes. Without a shelter we wouldn’t have a place for these cats/kittens to stay until adopted so THANK YOU 😻

Thank you to the rescues that help us when we we have run out of fosters and are at a loss for how to help. I won’t name you all but you know who are you. I hope you know how grateful we are when you say “yes, I will make room.”

Thank you to all who find cats/kittens and offer to foster until a home is found. Thank you for not turning your back on them.

Thank you to our friends/supporters who help transport cats and kittens to the vet hospitals especially in the morning! You know who you are 😻

Thank you to our Veterinarians who make room and take time out of their already busy day to see a cat in need. We couldn’t do any of this without you!

Thank you to all who have adopted this year! Our cats and kittens are lucky to have been adopted by each and every one of you this year.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and safe, healthy and Happy New Year!

Kerry and Lori

Help needed Foster/Foster to adopt

This handsome boy is in desperate need of a foster. Ninja has lived a life filled with trauma and neglect and not knowing what real love is. He is in a temporary foster home right now but the kitties in the home aren’t a fan of Ninja making him feel uncomfortable.
He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body but is looking for someone with patience and love to give. We don’t operate a shelter so have little in the way of options. We have an offer for a barn home but was hoping to find another foster home who is willing to show Ninja what real love is.
Ninja would do best in a quieter home and would probably do well with cats that are ok with other cats. A small room with little to no hiding places would be best so he can finally learn what it’s like to not live in fear. If given the opportunity to hide he will take it as that’s been his defense mechanism his entire life. He needs an opportunity to shine while realizing he can be loved the way he deserves to be.
Please consider giving this boy the chance he deserves.
Ninja is about 7-8 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, combo tested/negative and treated for parasites as a precaution.
All supplies and vet care are covered by our organization.

Kitten season just doesn’t seem to end!
We were contacted about a friendly young mom and her three babies abandoned at a local establishment. As soon as I got out of my car to locate this little family I didn’t have to look long as they all came running over to me.
This family was certainly lucky as the establishment is wooded with wildlife all around.
They are all thin but in the care with one of our wonderful foster homes getting healthy nutrition, warmth and love.
They are not available for adoption nor will be accepting applications at this time. We will post once available.

29/11/2023

Emotional trauma is quite real in animals and Ninja is no exception to being an innocent boy who has endured years of trauma and now working hard at learning to trust humans, once again.
Ninja was just one of over 40 cats living as an indoor/outdoor cat at a local residence. His “owners” moved out of state and Ninja along with 8 other cats were left behind finding themselves to fend for themselves.
Ninja deserves to be given a chance at living a life without fear of being abandoned again. He is currently in a foster home but, unfortunately, the foster home’s cat isn’t fond of sharing their space or mom’s time with Ninja making him unsure of his surroundings.
Our wish is to find a foster home that is on the quieter side where he can blossom and find his inner confidence. The only other option we have is to find a barn home for him.
Ninja is approx 6-8 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, negative for feline aids and leukemia and treated for parasites. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body and just needs to learn to trust again.
We are hoping for a Christmas miracle and find someone willing to show Ninja that not all humans are cruel.
Please reach out to us with any questions.
