This is a very difficult post to write. In the early hours of this morning, we tragically lost Sylvester - renamed Savy by his loving forever foster - after he suffered an acute medical crisis. We donโ€™t know what happened, but it was sudden and unexpected.๐Ÿ’”

Many of you will may remember Savy from when he came to us last September โ€” the brave little kitten found in a shed, all alone, unable to use his back legs. After extensive testing, we learned he was born without ball-and-socket hip joints, an unusual and complicated condition. But Savy was a fighter, and we were committed to giving him every chance at a good life.

And a good life he had.

Thanks to his forever foster, Savy lived a happy, love-filled life. He was adored by his human and canine companions and spoiled rotten. His days were filled with love, play, and snuggles.

Though his time on earth was far too short, we take comfort in knowing his life was full of all the wonderfulness he deserved. He didnโ€™t have a long life, but it truly was a good one.

Run free over that Rainbow Bridge, sweet Savy.๐Ÿชฝ You will never be forgotten. ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿพ

A few days ago, we were contacted about a stray senior cat who desperately needs help. She first appeared about 3-4 months ago with a noticeable head tilt and possible vision problems.๐Ÿ˜ฟ The kind woman who spotted her has been feeding her ever since, but this pretty girl only showed up sporadically. Fortunately, that changed recently. Over the last several days, sheโ€™s been coming around regularly, and her caretaker is working to earn her trust. She's named her "Peri" because her eyes are the green color of the gemstone peridot.

Weโ€™ve agreed to get her seen by one of our partner vets if we can raise the funds. Our emergency fund has been completely depleted due to the sheer number of cats currently in our care and multiple ongoing medical cases. But this girl needs helpโ€”and if we donโ€™t help her, who will? Itโ€™s heartbreaking to think how many people have seen this poor cat over the past few months, struggling to get by, and turned a blind eye to her plight. Weโ€™re hoping our can come together to help get her the care she needs. ๐Ÿ™

Despite her head tilt and vision/perception challenges, sheโ€™s doing her best to navigate the world. She uses her paws to feel her way around and get her bearings. Itโ€™s a testament to her will to survive, but also heartbreaking that she is forced to live this way. Life on the streets is dangerous for any cat, and itโ€™s especially risky for one whoโ€™s compromised like this. Sheโ€™s more vulnerable to predators, injuries, and getting hit by a car.

Our goal is to get her vetted this coming week, but we urgently need to raise at least $350-400 to cover the initial exam, lab work, x-rays, and any diagnostics the vet deems necessary to understand whatโ€™s causing her symptoms. If her condition is treatable, her caretaker has agreed to bring her inside to get her through the treatment phase.

If you're able to contribute to her careโ€”no matter the amountโ€”we would be immensely grateful. Every dollar helps bring her one step closer to the safety and medical care she deserves. Donations can be made in one of several ways:

Someone reached out this morning about the adorable pup! He was found, terrified, on the side of the highway. His kind-hearted rescuer, who was just in the area for the night, got a pet-friendly hotel room so she could rescue him AND she is skipping her sister's graduation this morning to try to find someone who can take this handsome boy. ๐™Ž๐™๐™š ๐™๐™–๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐™—๐™š ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ฉ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™๐™ค๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ก ๐™—๐™ฎ 11 ๐™–.๐™ข. ๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™™๐™–๐™ฎ! She's desperately looking for a person or rescue willing to take him in.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

She estimates this baby is around 6 months old. He is not microchipped, but is SUPER sweet! He is very snuggly and has been very loving with her daughter. If you can help, please reach out to his rescuer at (728) 644-6734. She is desperate to avoid taking him to the shelter, but has to leave the area by 11:00-11:30 a.m.!

โฃ๐Ÿ˜ปโฃ FOSTER NEEDED BY JULY 6! โฃ๐Ÿ˜ปโฃ

Weโ€™re searching for a foster home for three adorable 14-week-old kittens! Doozie, Lilith, and Priscilla have been in their current foster home since they were itty bitty babies, and have grown into affectionate, playful, and snuggly little lovebugs โ€” but their foster has extended upcoming travel and canโ€™t keep them past July 6.

Weโ€™re hoping to find a shorter-term foster (about 4 weeks) to get them through this next chapter:

๐Ÿพ Theyโ€™ll be spayed/neutered on July 24
๐Ÿพ They'll need about a week of recovery after surgery
๐Ÿพ After that, theyโ€™ll hopefully head to the Petsmart adoption center (pending space)

PAWS covers all vet care and can provide fostering supplies as needed โ€” we just need someone to open their heart and home for a few weeks.๐Ÿ™

Each of these babies is available to foster-to-adopt if you are interested in giving one a loving forever home!โค

Can you be the bridge between foster and FURever? ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ  Please reach out if you can help!

UPDATE: HOME FOUND

***Courtesy Post***

This ADORABLE kitten showed up on someone's porch yesterday morning. Unfortunately, their dog tried to harm the kitten, so they are looking for a home for this baby. According to her finder, she is a total snuggle bug! They are temporarily keeping her in their shop with a fan going, but that's not an ideal long-term solution. If anyone is interested in adopting this fluffy baby, please reach out and we'll put you in touch with her finders!

This is the update we never wanted to have to share.๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”

Sweet Mae crossed the Rainbow Bridge a short time ago. She fought with everything she had, but in the end, her tiny, fragile body just couldnโ€™t hold on any longer.

Late last night, Mae began showing signs of coccidia. Our vet examined her and started treatment immediately. We were worried, but still hopeful. This morning, she seemed less interested in eating โ€” concerning, but her interest in food has been up and down since we got her so this wasn't outside the norm for her. A short while later, her foster went in to try another feeding....and Mae was gone.

She slipped away quietly, having known love, warmth, safety, and comfort in her final days. Even though we know we tried our hardest to save her, it doesn't make her loss any less devastating. Mae's foster is heartbroken. We are heartbroken. We know so many of you were holding on to hope for her, and that you are heartbroken also. We hope that she felt all the love her poured into her over the past few days.

What makes this harder is knowing that Maeโ€™s death was preventable. If more people spayed and neutered their pets, if more people supported TNR efforts, if more people didn't assume that someone else would fix the problem...then kittens like Mae wouldn't suffer the way they do.

Thank you to everyone who rallied around her. Your compassion and generosity allowed us to try. It allowed us to fight for her. It mattered. She mattered.

Fly high, gentle Mae.๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿพ You were so very loved and just too good for this world. We will never forget you.
