Simba Update

He spent two nights in the emergency hospital after becoming blocked. He was unable to urinate, in pain, and at serious risk. The wonderful doctor was able to stabilize him and unblock him and we were so relieved to bring him back to the sanctuary. He curled up in his bed, purred, and seemed to settle. But within hours, he reblocked. We rushed him to our primary vet, It’s likely he’ll need a perineal urethrostomy (PU) surgery, a procedure that can prevent future blockages and give him a real chance at comfort and stability. It’s a major surgery and it’s expensive.

Simba is a survivor. He came to us after enduring severe abuse. We want to give him every chance to be able to live a normal happy kitty life.

If you’re able to contribute toward Simba’s surgery, you’ll be helping a cat who has already fought so hard to live. You’ll be giving him the chance to heal, to stay safe, and to finally feel better.

Thank you for loving him. We do too.

The caretakers🐾

A big thank you to everyone that donated towards his care at the ER! You make it possible for us to help him and other cats like him.

Hi. It’s me, Simba.

I didn’t want to be back here. The place with the bright lights and the pokey things. I was just starting to feel safe again. I had my soft bed, my warm meals, and kind hands that never raised in anger. I was healing but yesterday, something hurt deep inside. I cried out. I couldn’t p*e, no matter how hard I tried. Then there was blood. I didn’t understand what was happening, but I knew it was bad. The caretakers scooped me up and rushed me to the emergency vet.

The doctors say I have a urinary blockage. It’s serious. They’re doing everything they can to help me, but I might need a surgery called a PU to stop this from happening again. Right now, I’m in the hospital, hooked up to tubes and wires, trying to be brave.

If you don’t remember my story, I came from a place where pain was normal. When I leaked urine or bled, the person who was supposed to care for me got angry. He kicked me. He threw me. The one person who loved me thought the only way to end my suffering was to end my life. Before they could do that the sanctuary said they wanted to take me and give me the chance I deserved.

And now, I need saving again.

If you can, please help with my care. Every donation, every share, every kind word it tells me I matter. That there are safe people in the world. That I’m not alone.

I want to go home. I want to curl up in my bed and purr again. I want to be okay.

Love,
Simba 🐾

Hi, I’m Ernie.

I’m an orange boy with the softest purr. I wasn’t always safe. I was abandoned left outside with no food, no shelter, and no one to notice as I grew thinner and weaker. I was starving but someone saw me and cared. Now I’m here at the sanctuary alive, healing and loved.

I have a long road ahead. I’m a FIV positive guy and very skinny. I have a lot of infections and some of my bloodwork isn’t the greatest. I need time! My body’s still catching up. I take seven medications a day to help it do that. Seven! I don’t complain. I purr through my treatments, I eat like a champ, and I cuddle like it’s my job. I’ve found my favorite spot on the couch, where I curl up and wait for gentle hands to reach for me. I head bump them softly, asking for love. When they pet me, I melt. I love love. I love being held. I love being seen.

The sanctuary saved me. But saving cats like me comes with a cost. Right now, our vet bill is hovering around $3,000. If you believe in second chances. If you believe that no cat should be left to starve would you consider helping? A donation toward medical care expenses helps the sanctuary say “yes” to cats like me.

If you’ve fallen for me, would you be my sponsor mom or dad? I don’t have one yet. I’d love to be someone’s sponsor baby. You’d be part of my story, my healing, and my victories.

Lots of building going on here and some of the kitties can’t wait for their new outdoor area and sky walk!

15/10/2025

Just two days ago we thought we had to say goodbye. She was so weak we used to carry her to the outdoor areas to enjoy the sun. Her bloodwork has improved and she is doing so much better. Now she is trotting down the long sky walk herself and eating lots of wet food. She is a strong girl!

We have wonderful news. We took sweet Binky to the vet today. We assumed her bloodwork was going to come back terribly. Turns out she still wants to fight! Her numbers came back with significant improvement! We changed her meds. We will fight for her as long as she wants to fight. Picture of her curled up on one of the caretakers at the vet. ♥️

I’m Benson. The caretakers say that I’m devastatingly handsome. I was born with FeLV, which apparently stands for “Feline Leukemia Virus,” but I prefer “ Fluffy, Elegant, Legendary, Victorious”. Many kitties like me don’t make it far but I said, “Watch me.” Years later, I’m still here. Still sweet. I am strong and thriving. Must be all the sunshine naps. ♥️

Hello, it’s Binky.

I’ve been feeling a little different lately. For a while, it seemed like I was getting stronger my bloodwork even started to improve. But now, my red blood cells are fading, and the caretakers say I only have a very short time left.

I’m on new medicine that helps me feel comfortable and I’m surrounded by love. I get as much of my favorite wet food as I want and when I’m too tired to walk to the sunshine outside, my caretakers carry me there gently so I can still feel the warmth on my fur. I close my eyes and breathe the fresh air in. It’s one of my favorite things.

I’ve lived here for years. This place has been my home, my sanctuary. I’ve known kindness, safety, and love. Even now, as my body grows tired, I am held.

I may be a hospice kitty now, but I am not alone. My last days are filled with comfort, and cuddles. I’m grateful for every moment, every meal, every sunbeam, and every gentle hand that has loved me.

When it’s time to go, I’ll go with peace in my heart. Thank you for walking this path with me.

With love,
Binky

This sweet pretty boy Ernie is still hospitalized. He is feeling a ton better. He is eating as much as they will give him. He is a sweet boy and loves getting attention from everyone. It is clear how much better he feels. His white blood cell count is still extremely high. Our veterinarian suspects he may have cancer but we do not know for sure at this point. We are taking it day by day. Right now he feels good, he is happy, eating and getting love. We went to the hospital to visit him and he just wanted to be petted and loved. This boy deserves the world! Thank you so much to everyone that has donated. To those that haven’t, please consider helping Ernie. We are only able to take in cats because of amazing people that are willing to be a part of their journey to healing. Look at these sweet photos of our visit. He is impossible not to love!!
