❌❌❌Help for Sohjo! Please share
🔴Gofundme link: https://gofund.me/067e1a2a
Sohjo is a 12 years (young!) lady and she came into our charity signed ower by her previous owner due to inappropriate urination in the house… Sohjo never had any proper diagnostics done so when she came to us, she was later diagnosed with chronic kidney disease as suspected…
She’s been having her regular check ups (bloods and urine) and she’s been doing very well up until few days ago.
Unfortunately she started having respiratory effort, developed open mouth breathing and ended up having emergency appointment at the vets. She quickly improved on some oxygen and xrays didn’t show any obvious changes. It is possible that this is to do with upper resp infection, her CKD flare up, but it also could be asthma or heart issue so these need to be ruled out. We need to do some more diagnostics which unfortunately will require a very expensive specialist referral
But there is no other way- we need to know what exactly is going on so we can choose the best treatment option for this little lady.
Unfortunately vets think her case is very unusual and they suspect something more sinister 😞
She will require a specialist consult, bloods and urine tests, doppler ultrasound, a heart scan and possibly a CT depending on findings .
Sohjo is now scheduled to see Internal medicine specialist at London Vet specialists on Wednesday 12th January and the estimates are for around £3-3.5k.This is a huge amount of money and we are only a small charity…
We have managed to raise some funds already, but realistically we need another £1000 by Wednesday to be able to go ahead.
Sohjo is currently stable but her breathing is still very bad, there is a lot of abdominal effort…
Please help us, she’s such a happy lady with a huge personality and deserves a 5* home. She just needs a little help before we can make that happen 😞

ALERT! Cuteness Overload! :D Little Pinezka should be still with her cat mom for another couple of weeks. Unfortunately, life doesn’t always allow kittens to have healthy kittenhood and feline babies get separated too soon. This means they will still try to suckle to find comfort and calm. Often carers find blankets or toys to be the target of that behaviour. Here however, Honey stepped in! She was recently neutered, which results in quite a drastic hormonal change. In some cases, when the female was in intensive heat and her oestrus was prolonged and persistent, the organism is more prone to misunderstand the sudden hormonal drop as pregnancy and postpartum. This affected Honey, unfortunately (like she hasn’t been through enough…). Normally, these symptoms should weaken with time, and limited affection should be shown to the female cat, to not encourage and stimulate such behaviour.
While we tried to calm Honey down after the neutering procedure, the presence of Pinezka fitted very well into Honey’s misconception of what’s going on ;) She is now a full time foster mom. This will not hurt Honey or Pin in any way, it gives them both comfort and is already slowly degrading. We wanted to share this beautiful material with you while the moment lasts!

Catnip (Nepeta cataria) belongs to the mint family. 🌱
The plant produces a chemical called nepetalactone in microscopic bulbs that coat its leaves, stems, and seedpods. When bulbs rupture, they release the nepetalactone into the air. Cats respond to inhaled nepetalactonin in variety of different ways affecting cat’s mood and behaviors. 😸
It's estimated that one in three cats do not inherit the sensitivity to nepetalactone and kittens don't develop the ability to react to catnip until they are around three to six months of age.
Does your cat likes catnip? 😻
Franek is testing his new catnip toy available next week on our charity flee market!

Ciri lived on a street before she came to us in September 2020. Once we managed to catch her, she was in such a bad shape that it was impossible to realised how heavily pregnant she was at that moment. 😢
Luckily all that is in the past and since February Ciri is in her furrever home. 😻❤️❤️😻
However, she never forgot about her past and moving to the new home wasn’t as easy as you might think. Sometimes it can take a good few weeks (even months🤔) for a cat to learn how to trust a new place and a new human around. Ciri was very lucky, as her new family had all the patience in the world to help Ciri open up again❤️❤️❤️ It all worked out and look at her now! 😻😻

Baltazar is already at the clinic and he was just taken for the CT scan. Once we know more we will give you an update. Thanks that you are with us and that you support this brave boy. Just look how sweet he is and how he wants some extra cuddles just before the visit in the clinic. #adoptdontshop #rescuecat #catsofinstagram #sickcat #helpcats #catscan #blackcatsofinstagram #blackcat
