🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉ADOPTED!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Max, Margo and Maverick came to us via a local shelter. They were turned in as strays and after their stray hold was up, we were glad to help the shelter out and got them to a foster family. They were up in our local Petco's kitty condo for less than a week before finding their fur-ever homes. Wishing them and their new families a long, healthy, happy life together ❤️

A NEW SPONSOR! It's always exciting to have a company want to become one of our sponsors. It makes us feel seen and heard. In the chaotic world of rescue, it feels like we can't do enough - we can't get the attention we NEED in order to help the tiny souls that NEED us.
A Big THANK YOU to The Williams Firm for reaching out to be our newest sponsor. You can read more about them on our websites partner/sponsor page: https://www.musiccityanimalrescue.com/partnerssponsors
If you would like to become a sponsor or a donor, please visit our website for more information. We would love to have you as part of our MCAR family!!

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉ADOPTED!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

This handsome fella is MAX. He, along with his 2 siblings, Margo and Maverick, were turned in to a local shelter.

MAX is the most obnoxiously friendly kitten we've ever had! Personal space doesn't exist in his world. He likes to climb on top of you if you're laying down and suck on your neck while he makes biscuits. He also will nibble at your nose and chin. MAX will follow you around like a puppy all the while meowing for you to pick him up. He has the loudest purr!

MAX has been around cats, but has not been around dogs or young children. We feel that he would be okay with a dog as long as there is proper introduction.

MAX would be best in a home with children we feel over 10 years old. Of course proper adult supervision is always advised with children around small animals.

MAX born 2/28/25 has been neutered, FIV/feLV tested negative, had rabies and FVRCP vaccinations, had worm and parasite treatment, on flea preventative and microchipped.

MAX is currently residing in the kitty condo at Petco, 3536 Murfreesboro Pike in Antioch where you can go by and meet him.

UPDATE ON OUR LITTLE MIMI! Thank you to everyone who sent their prayers and donated to Mimi's vet bills. She was spayed and her pregnancy was terminated on Monday. Today, she seems to be getting her strength back and wanting to be more social. Of course she still has 3 more weeks with her splint and we can do a recheck of her leg injury. (read our previous post about what this baby and her best friend have gone thru)!!
We still owe a good chunk on her vet bill and we still have lots of little babies needing vetting. If you are able to make a donation to Music City Animal Rescue, Mimi and her friends would really appreciate it!
You can visit our website www.Musiccityanimalrescue.com for ways you can donate (monetarily or food & supplies)!
WE LOVE ALL OF OUR FANS & FRIENDS!!

BACKYARD BREEDERS - ANIMAL ABUSERS - PUPPY MILLS....PLEASE - PLEASE HELP MIMI AND MUSIC CITY ANIMAL RESCUE!!
This is the story of our Mimi. God only knows what she went thru of which we have no idea. It may be a bit lengthy - it may be upsetting to some but her story must be told. For her and for so many others like her!!
The first of May, Metro Animal Control posted two small dogs that were taken from a court-ordered surrender. These two (male and female) had been locked in a doghouse (nailed shut) with no food or water for 3 days. By their condition, this was not the first time. Visibly malnourished, timid and nervous, they asked for rescue help. Music City Animal Rescue stepped up and found 2 frail, timid but absolutely loving and accepting dogs. Mimi was approx. 2 and Buster about 3. We suspected Mimi was pregnant but we couldn't get them into the vet for several weeks and it would give us time to begin feeding them and getting them stronger. Thru it all, Mimi has clung to humans, enjoyed their love. She is eating well, learning things and becoming more independent.
NOW, here is where I go OFF THE RAILS!! Last night, Mimi was running to the door to go outside to potty when she suddenly screamed in pain and fell over. Her back leg looked to either be broken or out of the socket. We rushed her to the emergency vet (VEG on Charlotte Pike and we 100% recommend them). The short story is that her leg was indeed out of the socket AND she had multiple tiny fractures that appeared they could have happened prior to this incident (while still at owners home). AND....she is indeed pregnant.
DIAGNOSIS - from her abuse, malnutrition, etc...she will not be able to withstand a pregnancy and the breaks and dislocation are due to poor breeding and her being CONSTANTLY bred. Her bones were very small and thin. The emergency vet put her in a splint and she will be going Monday to be spayed with the abortion and they will check to see how her leg is doing. IF these fractures do not heal, she will need surgery to fuse the bones.
WTH PEOPLE!!! All in the name of money - puppies etc...You lock dogs in together so they will be sure to mate. You do this repeatedly! You starve them and keep them in unsanitary conditions. No telling if she was abused in any other ways.
THE MOST HEARTBREAKING yet HEARTWARMING part of the story? She still loves people! She accepts them. Wants their affection and gives it in return. She wants to please the very species that abused her. An animal's ability to forgive FAR EXCEEDS MINE!!
If this story upsets you, makes you want to do something...here is how you can help. RIGHT NOW - Music City Animal Rescue has over $5,000 in emergency vet bills. Mimi's bills for right now are around $1,500.00. We are changing Mimi and Buster (on the recommendation of the vet) to Iams puppy food (dry) and we will be giving them some extra supplements. We have approx. $800.00 in our account at this time and we have her surgery plus 2 other dogs and 4 other cats already scheduled in the next 2 weeks. WE ARE OUT OF MONEY!! If you can help by making a donation (nothing is too small) Mimi and all of our babies would sure appreciate it! You can visit our website www.Musiccityanimalrescue.com for our wish lists and ways to donate. Our Venmo is MCARTN (select charities) or Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=HH85TWHAS828U
We are so grateful that we got Mimi when we did and that she will eventually be strong and healthy and ready for a family of her own that will love her and treat her like she deserves to be treated. Meanwhile, we will and ask that you will, continue to share her story. Bring awareness to this type of animal neglect and cruelty and please consider being a regular supporter of Music City Animal Rescue. We do good work in our community - but we can't do it without your support! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Music City Animal Rescue currently has over 45 cats/kittens in their care and are being asked daily to help more! We have NO MORE cat/kitten fosters available. If you would like to help us help them, please consider fostering for MCAR. We provide all the food, litter, medical supplies etc...needed. All you need to provide is a safe, loving home where they can get ready to find a home of their very own. If you are interested in helping, visit https://www.mcar-applications.com/foster and complete an application!
If you are unable to foster, we are in desperate need of cat/kitten supplies. There are links on our home page to our wish lists and other ways you can donate/help! www.Musiccityanimalrescue.com
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

This sweet precious baby is Boba. God had a hand in this tiny Angel coming to us. We got a call from our local Petco Partner that a young man had brought her in to their store wanting to surrender her. They explained they couldn't take her and currently, we have close to 30 kittens spread out between 6 fosters. We just couldn't take in another one.😥 The Associate there tried to get the man to buy some food for her as she was skin in bones, very lethargic and not responding well, but, he refused, and as he was walking out, she urged him to go to MACC. This kitten weighed heavily on her mind, and mine. We both worried she would be dumped back outside and would die, never having known love, warmth, safety and a full belly. She said that if by some miracle she pops up again that she would foster her. The next day MACC posted her on their rescue partner email. I sent the picture to the Associate, and she excitedly told me that was her! I responded to the email, and, went to pick her up that day. At 4 weeks old and very underweight, this cutie has been with us for 4 days now and has been so very lonely, not really engaging or eating much at all. We've been worried she wouldn't make it....but today, she got not one, not two, but three friends and she has perked up, is eating so much better and playing for the first time! I'll post the new additions in another post.
Thank you to the sweet girl fostering Boba and her new siblings.
We are in desperate need of kitten food; wet and dry and litter. We also have 30 kittens that all need vetting and will pretty much all have to be spayed/neutered at the same time which is a heavy financial toll on our small Rescue. If Boba's story has touched your heart, and you want to help, please go to our website at musiccityanimalrescue.com and follow the links to donate. We have several wish lists available with items already selected that we desperately need.
Thank you for being a part of the MCAR family.
