*URGENT DONATIONS NEEDED*

Kitten season is booming!

A couple of months ago we reached out to the community asking for help feeding our over-abundance of kittens. We received a very generous amount of donations and were able to keep our kittens happy and well-fed since then.
However, with over 30 kittens in our care, our supply has dwindled and we find ourselves again in need of wet kitten food.

We are again reaching out to our amazing community to consider donating wet kitten food to ensure these precious kittens receive the nutrition they need to thrive.
Your contribution will make a significant difference in their lives, providing them with the sustenance and care they need and deserve.

Any kind of kitten food will work for us and we would be extremely grateful for any donations received.

Thank you for your support and for making a difference during this critical time! 🐈

Donation can be sent directly to our shelter:

Thank you Operation SOS!!!! Dr. Kittams and her team are the best, they have spay/neutered hundreds of cats for me as a trapped doing TNVR for years. We can help our community cats by cutting down the population through TNVR and monitoring our colonies for new faces to trap. Colonies with all sterilized cats are much happier and healthier!

TNVR stands for Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return, and it is a humane method of managing and reducing the population of free-roaming or feral cats. Here’s a breakdown of what each step involves:

Trap: Cats are captured using humane traps designed to safely contain them without causing harm.

Neuter: Once trapped, the cats are taken to a veterinary clinic where they are spayed (female cats) or neutered (male cats). This procedure involves surgically sterilizing the cats so they cannot reproduce.

Vaccinate: While under anesthesia for the neutering/spaying procedure, the cats are vaccinated against common diseases such as rabies and feline distemper. This helps improve their overall health and prevents the spread of diseases within the cat population.

Return: After surgery and vaccination, the cats are returned to their original location where they were trapped. This step is crucial because these cats are often part of a colony and are accustomed to their environment. By returning them, it maintains the social structure of the colony and prevents new, unsterilized cats from moving in and taking their place.

Sterilize, Sterilize, Sterilize please! I cannot tell you how sad it is to have a 4 month old kitten pregnant with kittens herself. Young mommy kitties are usually not good mothers and the kittens may not get the care and nutrition they need. Kittens can be spay/neutered at 2 months and two pounds.

Thank you to Caring Fields Felines for taking my TNVR kitty that was too far along and delivered 8 beautiful babies!

All 8 of the “V” babies were adopted thanks to their foster family of Amy and Kaylah G.!! This mom/daughter team took mama Violet and her octuplets when the babies were 4 weeks old and did such an amazing job with them. 8 kittens is a lot of work! Venture, Virgil, Valley, Vixie, Vavoom, Vladimir, Vanilla Bean and Viking have thrived in their foster home and have all found wonderful furever homes now. We cannot thank Amy and Kaylah enough for opening up their hearts and home to this large family.

Rescuing a whole colony in Okeechobee for TVNR takes patience, days of coordination and a safe place to stay in between. Please don't call animal control 😭
We rescued them all 😻
