These are a couple new cats that have shown up recently at our colony. A black cat, and a tuxedo with a white mustache. If you know of anyone searching for any cats of either of these descriptions, please show them these photos, and tell them to get in contact with one of us from the colony.

Thanks!

Jet is being well cared for and on his way to healing! He's very cooperative with his treatment and is just such a good boy! Thanks to everyone who donated towards his care! We all appreciate it, and so does Jet.

Jet needs your help! Please buy some raffle tickets.

look away if you are squeamish.

This is Jet, a cat who showed up at our colony back in June. He was obviously a dumped pet because he is so friendly. In June he had a few open wounds on his neck and back. We were able to pick him up and take him to ACCT to be fixed ( we had no idea if he was fixed or even if he was a boy). Once at ACCT he was neutered, vaccinated, flea treated and they put him on antibiotics and kept him for 3 days before releasing him back to our colony. Rescues and fosters are overwhelmed so we didn’t have any place to send him. 😞 He was released back into our colony where he has shelter and gets fed every day.

We didn’t see Jet for 2 months and we feared the worse. Then out of the blue he just recently showed up again; but with more medical problems. He is still friendly and allows us to pet him. We planned on taking him back to ACCT for more treatment, since medical care is free for colony cats, but we were told by a staff member there that they only treat each outdoor cat one time only. We don’t want to euthanize him and we won’t give up on this precious cat so we are taking him to Caring Hands Vet Clinic tomorrow ( Tuesday) where we were able to get a quick appointment. Other places wouldn’t give us an appointment for at least 2 weeks. We don’t want to do a Go Fund Me for his medical care, we prefer to do our online raffle twice a year to help with food and these rare medical expenses, and give people a chance to win something back for their donation. Please go to out colony page Holmecrest Homes Cat Colony or the pinned post at the top of my page and check out our raffle. 😻 Thanks. 🐈‍⬛

**edit**thanks everyone! We're good for now!

We're looking for a volunteer to temporarily help out with feeding our colony. One of our feeders is resting up for a few weeks after a medical procedure, and won't be able to care for our colony for a few weeks. Food is provided. All we ask is for you to be serious about doing it, and be dependable and reliable. If interested, then message and/or comment on this post.

There's 2 of them now! ( I think the smaller one is the child of the bigger one)

Hi all! Besides being one of the caretakers of this colony, I also foster kittens. I need some help this week. (I am fostering this litter through ACCT. )

I need to ask for emergency donations today. I'm almost out of wet food for the kittens. These little guys are eating like horses. I can't believe how much they devoured this past week. Please help, I am out of funds until the weekend. I have an Amazon list you can order from, but right now it's not letting me add fancy feast kitten Pate to it for some reason. There are lots of choices on the list, but some are a bit pricey. If you can see the Fancy Feast kitten formula Pate on the list, by all means send it.

PetSmart has the best selection and prices. If you could send an E-gift card to my email address for PetSmart, that would be the best option. :

[email protected]

That email Is also my PayPal account, I could accept cash donations there, or to venmo. ( If you are uncomfortable sending an E-gift or ordering from the list.
- VENMO

I have 6 little hungry mouths to feed and not enough money to buy them more food until the weekend. I have plenty of kibble (dry) . I could also use the puppy pads on the list also. They're very messy too!

Again, some of you have really come through for me before, and I hope you can again. I appreciate you all more than you can know, and couldn't do what I do without your support.

Thanks SO MUCH!
