My husband was nominated to do the ice bucket challenge, but since we're a not for profit ourselves he decided to do a twist on it to represent our cause.
We are truly in need of a foster home (or adoption) of our diabetic cat King. Due to his diabete's need for a special diet, he is the only cat in the shelter that needs to be caged. Because of this he doesn't get the freedom and exercise that he really needs and has suffered some muscle wasting. We have had him since July and he's spent the majority of that time in a cage. He deserves more than what we can give him in the shelter setting. If you or someone you know may be interested in sharing your heart and home with him please let me know. He does need to be fed a special canned food and does require very simple to give insulin shots. As you can see from this video he LOVES to be brushed and is a total lap cat when given the chance.

Our very special "special needs" kitty Ginger has found her furever home!
Update on our special little Fancy girl: she is healing better than expect and we couldn't be happier! Here's a video of her being her cute, happy little kitten self. She is just a spectacular little girl! Thank you again Dr. Fairlie for saving her life and for giving her a chance when others might not have!
Meet Ginger! Ginger has severely deformed front legs and abnormal hind feet. Each front leg is smaller than it should be and are curved inward like a crescent. She is missing toes and the toes she has aren't in the right position. Her back feet look larger, as if she has extra toes, but does not. She actually walks on her wrists. She was found living under a trailer in Lake Katrine. She is about 8-10 months old and is still going through the process of her medical work up. Even with her handicap she seems to get around well and is a complete love bug as you can see in this video.
Foster Home Needed! Meet King, he's a 5 year old male who's owner passed away a year ago. He had been living with a family member who was allergic to him, so when it turned out that King is diabetic she was not able to touch him to give insulin. She brought him to be euthanized, but we stepped in and took him on. He's a funny man who truly lives up to his name. His favorite thing in the world is to be brushed, he'll even do all the work as you can see in this video. If you or someone you know can foster please contact me. Thanks!
I think the kittens what to be your friend...
