Foster/rescue NEEDED : NEEDS SOCIALIZATION.

PLEASE SHARE.

UPDATE: FOSTER FOUND. We are trapping them Monday. STILL COULD USE HELP WITH ADOPTION/PLACEMENT

Foster and rescue needed for a litter of 3 9 week old kittens.

I just recovered the mommy cat and she is being released today.

If no foster is found for these babies, they will have to either go to the shelter or be TNRed if no one can socialize them.

Everybody’s full, including me and my best friend. If anyone can help please message me.

Located in Gloucester County.

***also, I am not feeding these cats and I don’t condone feeding cats out of cans directly

I know I have been quite with the actual cat updates…

I am unfortunately trying my hardest to tract down Jaws and Princess

As you all know Jaws has been my resident feral for the longest time (nearing five years)

And Princess I was trying to trap for TNR.

Could use some prayers 🥺🐾

Meet Rogue ⭐️ , a cat with a history as intriguing as his name. Once a feral colony cat, Rogue has since discovered the joys of indoor life. He's a sweet and mellow fellow, always ready for a quiet cuddle. Despite his independent nature, Rogue has a friendly disposition and is often found seeking out the company of humans. He might be a little shy at first, but once he warms up to you, his smart and loving nature shines through. His past life has made him a resilient and adaptable companion. Rogue's story is a testament to the fact that it's never too late to change and adapt. His journey from the wild to a comfortable indoor life has only made him more endearing.

Adopt Rogue and let his sweet, mellow nature bring a calming presence to your home.

Please inbox us here if interested in adopting.

Support community cat programs in New Jersey! If enacted, new legislation would fund local TNR efforts throughout the state, giving thousands of New Jersey residents access to a lifesaving and community-minded solution for at-risk cats.

Been trying for a little while now to TNVR “Princess” not an easy catch, quite elusive but comes out for my mom most of the time when she feeds. Dedicating bigger since first showing up.🩶

Former PlazaCatz Ginger doing really in her new location, no idea why cats relocate like this but I’m just happy she’s safe healthy and content.

First time in really long time I’ve been able to see her let alone talk or walk up on her without her flipping out.🐾

Someone cared enough…
That’s what the corner of that cat’s ear being tipped (cut off) means. Someone cared enough. Enough to take time out of their day for that wild cat. To load up trapping supplies, go to the trapping location, set traps, monitor traps, and wait hours in most cases to fill traps. Then to bring them home in the traps and get them set up somewhere overnight and care for them. To drive them to the vet the next day, wait in line, and check them in for surgery. To pay (or get vouchers) for them to be spayed/neutered and vaccinated. If they are extra nice, they pay extra for flea meds and dewormer, knowing it will only last a month, but knowing that might be the only month of reprieve they have in their whole life from being eaten alive. They care enough to drive back the next day and pick them up from the vet and in most cases house them for a day or two for recovery. In that time they care for them and make sure they are healing from surgery well. Then they drive them back to the trapping location and release them back to their outdoor home. From there, back home to clean and wash the traps and supplies to be ready for next time. This takes HOURS. Hours for a feral street cat that so many people hate.
So that feral cat you see out there with an ear tip, someone cared enough to take the time to give them a better life. To stop the cycle. To try to tackle the overpopulation and suffering. To help curb the testosterone driven territorial fights and spraying. To help that female not get pyometra from having litter after litter until she dies. To try to keep the numbers down so less people threaten their lives.
That indoor cat with the ear tip…someone cared a little extra. They saw that cats had potential to thrive in a life off the streets and they gave them that chance. They worked with them to overcome their fears so they wouldn’t live that harsh street life with a much shorter life expectancy than indoor cats.
That ear tip is how us trappers identify a cat that has already been spayed/neutered. It is a quick way to look at a feral cat and know if they have been fixed or not. This helps us not trap the same cats and send them through the stress of transport to the vet repeatedly, because we can see they have already been fixed. If a cat with an ear tip ends up in the trap, we can just release them immediately and keep trying until we get a cat that is not ear tipped.
Some people don’t like how the ear tip looks, or how painful it might be (it’s done under anesthesia during their spay/neuter surgery)… But that ear tip is a badge of honor. Someone cared enough.

Lisa Sipps and I re-vamped “M2” colony for Ginger today. 🐈

Definitely looking to update her shelter to something more then a tote if anyone has anything there giving away, or sees anything for free keep me posted 🙃

Or if anyone cares to donate I updated some cat houses on my wishlist. I have another location where a shelter has to be replaced as well ⬇️

Former PlazaCat Ginger, finally settling in gaining weight, looking healthy at her own personal colony she choose at M2🧡

No luck getting this gray cat.

Raccoon : 1
Me : 0

Also I swear Lisa Sipps is a magnet for seeing my resident feral Jaws, always super appreciative for your help and junior helper Ava. 🦝 🐱 🩵

The queen appeared outta her favorite gutter, had to make an exception today and feed her there since trying to trap the newcomers.

13/07/2023

New comer, could potentially be a lost and or dumped pet isn’t as feral as they usually are but is skittish.

Will try and set up a trapping plan soon.

Feel free to interact and drop potential name suggestions below.
