The Awesome 80’s Dolls have graduated foster care!

Hugga Bunch, Cabbage Patch, Teddy Ruxpin and Popple have transitioned to for adoption. These babies were born in a local backyard. Their mom wasn’t caring for them and the finder took them in and bottle fed them! When they were 5 weeks old she reached our for help and we took them into foster care.

These 4 kittens are fun and adventerous. They love to wrestle and play with each other! Their favorite thing to do is chase a ball around the room while pouncing on each other! Hugga Bunch is a cuddler with a big purr…she also loves to talk! Cabbage Patch is independent and wants to explore new spaces. Teddy Ruxpin wants all the scritches, all the time! And Popple wants to climb everything in sight…including his people!

We fixed the mom and 2 female siblings from mom’s previous litter, and the homeowner will continue to care for them! No more kittens at this location!

If you are interested in an Awsome 80’s Doll, email [email protected]! We cant wait for these dolls to find their purrfect home!

Meet Strawberry Shortcake and her Sweet Surprises!

Strawberry Shortcake is a local stray with lots of smarts. She was heavily pregnant and when she noticed an open apartment door, she snuck right in and delivered 5 perfect little treats in a cubby upstairs! It took a couple of days to be noticed, but when her sweet surprises were found, the apartment renter reached out ot us for help because she couldn’t keep them.

We took Mama, Lemon Meringue, Blueberry Muffin, Raspberry Tart, Huckleberry Pie and Apple Dumplin’ into foster care when they were 4-5 days old. Strawberry Shortcake is an amazing mom and is keeping her little treats happy and plump. She is such a sweetheart, and we are so excited that she will never have to worry about caring for babies again.

Strawberry Shortcake and her babies will stay in foster care for about 8 weeks, and then they will transfer to a local shelter for adoption. We can’t wait to see these babies grow up!

Introducing Ace, King, Queen, Jack and Joker .

We were contacted after a momma cat and her 5 kittens showed up on a property in Ingleside. The home owners didn’t want to leave the kittens outside and unprotected so they caught and cared for them until we were able to come get them and move them to their foster homes. They even fixed the momma cat so she wouldn’t have to worry about having anymore kittens outside and we are very thankful for their compassion.

The kittens are 7-8 weeks old and are little scaredy-cats right now but their foster will be working on socializing them and turning them into cute little cuddle buddies. 5 kittens in any house is a full house so we sent a pair to one foster home and three of a kind to another. What do you want to bet 😹 that by the time they graduate foster care these little kittens will ante up to be the purrfect additions to someone’s home and family.

Sunday Snuggles!

Meet Wade, Logan, Vanessa, and Althea! Four little kittens singing bye bye bye to the streets!

We were contacted by another rescuer about a semi feral momma cat that had four kittens at a property in Corpus Christi. Knowing that they weren’t old enough to leave their mom yet we asked them to wait until the kittens were old enough to eat on their own. The rescuer watched and cared for them and thankfully it wasn’t too long and we were able to move the kittens to their foster home.

The kittens were hissy and unsocialized…they needed to learn the nuances of being spoiled indoor kitties! They have quickly warmed up to people, are playing with toys, and are gaining weight nicely.

The momma cat is getting fixed this week so that she never has to worry about having any more kittens on the streets again.

Congratulations to the ! These four playful orange purr babies have stolen our hearts as we watched them recover from severe eye infections.

These kittens were found living in a wall after a couple had been working on TNR’ing the strays near their residence. Shortly after we took them into our care, mild URI symptoms blossomed into severe eye disease that we battled with multiple antibiotics, antivirals, eyedrops and other therapies for weeks!

The kittens had several visits to the vets office and their foster had to give round the clock care for the first few weeks but all that extra TLC really made a huge difference. Clementine required a double eye enucleation a but she is doing great after her surgery!

We are happy to announce they were accepted to and we can’t wait to see their progress and updates as they find their forever homes.

Thank you to everyone that donated to help care for Clementine, Cutie, Chaat, and Kimchi. We appreciate your support!

Today, December 3rd is and we ask that you consider making a donation to Coastal Bend Cat Rescue in honor of this worldwide celebration of generosity. Every year around this time we work diligently on restocking all of our consumable medical supplies to prepare for the upcoming kitten season. We have an explosive kitten season here in South Texas, which typically begins around February of each year and lasts until late fall. There are so many cats and kittens that need our help, but we can’t do it without your support. ❤️

We are a cat rescue team that focuses on the most vulnerable and critical cases from the streets of South Texas. We prioritize orphaned neonatal kittens, nursing mama cats with kittens, urgent medical cases and cats that do not stand a chance of survival without human intervention.

We are an all volunteer, foster-based rescue, and we depend on the public’s support to operate. Our team has developed the knowledge and skill set to help cats in need, but we need your help to keep us going. We rely on donations to purchase life-saving medical equipment, food, formula, medication and supplies. We rely on donations to ensure our cats receive the highest quality veterinary care and to support spay/neuter surgery to stop the cycle of kittens being born.

Thank you Rescue Family for your unwavering support. With your help, we are looking forward to an amazing year of rescue in 2025!

Can’t donate but still want to help? Share this post or tell your friends about us! You can also donate supplies directly via our Amazon Wishlist link below! THANK YOU Rescue Family!

Meet Cabbage Patch, Hugga Bunch, Teddy Ruxpin and Popple…the awesome 80s dolls.

These cuties were born in a local backyard from a local stray who already had 2 juvenile females with her. Mama was not caring for the babies so the finder brought them inside and bottle fed them! These babies are now 5 weeks onld and the finder reached out for help because they wanted them to be able to find good homes.

These babies are just the sweetest cuddly bunch. They love to climb on people and get lots of scritches. They are exploring and playing in the foster room and are so fun to watch as they pounce and wrestle. They love ALL the toys…but dinner time is still their favorite time of day!

These babies will spend a few more weeks in foster care until they are big enough to transition to a local shelter for adoption…we can’t wait to watch them grow!

Mrs. Garrett, Blair, Jo, and Tootie learned all the Facts of Life CBCR had to teach them and have graduated foster care!!

This sweet family came to us a strays from a local community. Mrs. Garrett had already had a previous litter there and they needed help. Mom and babies had a significant ringworm infection that required treatment in our care. Mom also had an old collar that was stuck under one of her legs and must have been that way for quite awhile😿.

These ladies blossomed in foster care! They learned to play with toys, use a litter box, and many other kitty life lessons. They are now ready to graduate and find their furrever homes. If you are interested in adopting, email [email protected] for more information!

What a weekend!

When we say rescue never takes a break, it’s because it never does. You could just be talking with your neighbor on a Saturday and the next thing you know you are on your roof trying to save kittens 😂.

One of our fosters was chatting with her neighbor, when she noticed a kitten hiding behind a bush in front of her house. She wasn’t sure where it came from, but brought him in to keep him safe. The next morning, she heard loud kitten crying from outside. She went outside and found another kitten clinging to the bush…it had obviously fallen off the roof! A bit of detective work found mama and a third kitten in a cozy space under the eave. It took a ladder and some teamwork to get to baby 3. But he is now safe too!

We will still have to work on trapping the momma but we are happy to announce that Figaro, Cleo, and Jiminy are safe and adjusting to life in foster care! These babies are 5-6 weeks old…this is often when kittens start exploring away from their safe home. Exploring kittens can fall off roofs, wander into roads or other very unsafe situations. These cuties are so lucky our foster noticed when it started raining kittens!
