Simba here, with an update

Hi friends. I wanted to let you know… I’m doing so much better. I’m at the sanctuary now, and things feel different in a way I didn’t know was possible. The hands that touch me don’t hurt, they comfort.

I’m getting love. Real love. The kind that doesn’t disappear when I’m messy or hurting. I’ve made friends here and I’m learning that I don’t have to shrink anymore. I don’t have to brace. I can just be.

The vet found out I have something called intestinal cystitis. It’s painful when it flares up, and I’ll need medicine during those times. But I’m not being punished for it. I’m being helped. That’s still new to me, but I’m starting to believe it’s real.

I want to say thank you. To every single person who donated, who shared my story, and believed I deserved better. Your kindness is building the life I never thought I’d have. You didn’t turn away when I was broken. You leaned in. I’m healing. I’m safe. I’m loved. And I’m so, so grateful.

With all my heart,
Simba 🐾💛

Hi, it’s me Freckle! 💕 I’m the snuggliest little sunshine girl, but today the sky decided to rain , so I’m skipping my usual nap in the outdoor areas. Instead, I’ve curled up in my favorite couch pillow for some deluxe Sunday snoozing.

For those that don’t know, I’m feline leukemia positive, but don’t worry, I’m thriving, purring, and living my absolute best life. Every day is a gift, and I make sure to fill it with love, naps, and just a sprinkle of mischief.

Sending my love to everyone. Hope you’re napping like me.

Well, well, well. Look who finally got a photo of me. I was ambushed by a camera while in the cat tree. The caretakers, my food servants are losing their minds. There’s squealing. There are blurry photos. I’ve apparently become the sanctuary’s version of Bigfoot, mysterious, majestic, and rarely seen. There are whispers of “progress” and “she’s finally warming up,” which is frankly insulting. Let’s be clear, I did not “warm up”. I climbed. For height. For solitude. For strategic snack surveillance. They think I’m bonding. I think they’re delusional.

Still, I must admit… the food arrives on time, the blankets are fluffed, and no one tries to hug me (a miracle). I don’t want their affection. I want their obedience and maybe a little pate.

So yes, I was seen. Yes, they took 47 blurry photos. And yes, I remain gloriously aloof, fabulously feral, and medically complex.
But I do appreciate the effort. From a distance. Like a queen nodding at her subjects from a balcony.

I didn’t mean to be broken.

I didn’t mean to leak urine or bleed or cry out when the pain got too loud inside me. I didn’t mean to make the floor messy or the air heavy. I just couldn’t help it.

I lived with two humans. One of them loved me. She saw the good in me even when I was hurting. The other he saw only the mess and when I couldn’t hold it in anymore, when my body betrayed me again, he made sure I paid for it. He punished me by kicking, hitting, and throwing me.

I learned to shrink. To brace. To disappear.

But today, something changed. Gentle hands lifted me out of that place. They didn’t flinch when they saw the blood. They didn’t yell when I leaked urine. They just said, “We’ve got you now.”

I just got to the sanctuary vet . It’s quiet here. I’m still hurting, but no one’s angry about it. They’re trying to help me heal not just my body, but the part of me that stopped believing I deserved kindness.

I know some might be angry at what happened to me. I understand. But I’m asking you to look forward with me. To help me get the care I need. To help the sanctuary give me a life where pain isn’t punished, and softness is safe.

I want to know what it feels like to be well. To be wanted. To be whole.

If you can help, thank you. If you’re just here reading, thank you too.

Simba is currently at our veterinary office. We will update more once we know why he’s leaking urine and blood. It is likely an issue with his bladder. Please consider a donation towards his care.

Hi hi hi! It’s me Hammy! I’ve had the best day ever playing zoomies with Wally and snuggling up with Goldeen on our cozy couch. I’m a very good boy (everyone says so!) and I always make sure the caretakers get their daily dose of Hammy hugs. It’s important work.

I have feline leukemia and FIV but it doesn’t bother me at this point. I’m a happy guy. I do have a little wish, though…Goldeen and Rangy both have sponsor moms and dads who send them love and help them. Wally and I don’t have one yet. But maybe just maybe there’s someone out there who’s looking for a happy, cuddly, good boy to cheer for each month. I promise to be the best sponsor kitty ever. If you choose Wally, that’s okay he promised to share his treats with me.

Love and nose boops,
Hammy 💛

Oh hey there, it’s me BoBerry! 💙

You wanna know what love looks like? It’s me trotting to the door every morning, tail high, ready to greet the caretakers. I’m a cuddler, a little shadow, and I don’t rest until someone sits down and gives me snuggles. I mean, have you seen my face? Who could resist?

I’ve got Feline leukemia and FIV. Earlier this year FIP tried to take me out too. It was rough and no one knew if I would make it. Months of meds, pokes, and vet trips but I beat it. I beat FIP. Now I’m fluffier, chunkier, and living the good life. I’m a survivor. I think that makes me pretty special. FIP, FeLV, and FIV is a lot for one kitty. But I’m here, purring, playing, and stealing snacks I’m not supposed to have. Shhhh! Don’t tell the caretakers.

It took thousands of dollars to save me. That’s not a small number, but neither is the love I have to give. If you want to help the sanctuary save more kitties like me, the ones who just need a chance and a warm lap, your donation means everything. We’re not just surviving at the sanctuary, we’re thriving! 💛

Hi friends, it’s me Big Boy. I had such a lovely morning today. The caretakers brought my breakfast outside so I could enjoy it in the fresh air. I stretched out, listened to the birds, and let the sun warm my fur while I ate. It felt peaceful. It felt like home.

My diabetes is under control, and even with FIV, I’m feeling strong. I’m an older guy, sure but I’m still here, still purring, still loving life. Every day is a gift, and today was one of the good ones.

Hello friends, McFlanery here 🐾
I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for the donations. Because of your kindness, I got to enjoy some truly delicious wet food and the sanctuary received litter, some beds, and toys!

Now I’m stretched out on my favorite couch, belly full, feeling cozy and very loved. It’s a good day in McFlanery’s world, and that’s all thanks to you.

Sending a slow blink of gratitude

I’m Tar!
Used to be feral. Like, really feral. The kind of cat who’d vanish into the shadows before you even knew I was there. Life was cold, loud, and full of things with teeth. I didn’t trust humans. I didn’t trust couches. I didn’t even know what a couch was.

But now?
Now I’ve got choices. I can stretch out in the sunny outdoor spaces, or curl up in the cool air on a couch so soft it feels like a cloud. I didn’t grow up with warm beds or gentle hands but I’ve got them now. And let me tell you, I’m making up for lost time.

I still keep a little wild in me. It’s part of who I am. But these days, I wrap myself around the caretaker’s feet purring like thunder, soaking up every pet and scratch like it’s gold. No more predators. No more storms. Just safety, comfort, and love.

This is the good life.
And I’m living it. ♥️

Hi hi hiiii! It’s me McFlanery! The happiest, snuggliest, most perfect little kitty you’ll ever meet. I’m a cuddler, blanket burrower, and I love taking naps on any lap I can find. My home is full of love, cozy places to sleep, and humans who give me all the chin scritches I could ever dream of. Life is pretty great! 💖

But… I gotta be honest about one thing. There’s something I just can’t do. Dry food. It’s crunchy and weird and makes my mouth feel all wrong. I’ve tried to be polite about it, but nope. Not for me. What I do LOVE, is wet food. Every bite is soft and delicious and makes me feel fancy. Since switching to wet food, I’ve filled out my tiny frame and I look and feel good.

The caretakers told me that if I want wet food for every meal, I need to find a way to make it happen. So I’ve been watching the other kitties and guess what? A lot of them have sponsor moms and dads who help them out. And me? I don’t have one yet. 😿

So… I’m asking from the bottom of my little heart:
Would you be my sponsor mom or dad? Or maybe send me some wet food from Chewy so I can keep feeling this good every day?

I may be Feline Leukemia positive, FIV positive, and have Feline Infectious Anemia (FIA) but I’m thriving, joyful, and full of love. I just need a little help to keep my belly full of the good stuff. Will you be the one to make my dreams come true?

Purrs and head boops,
McFlanery 🐾

Hi, I’m Paige! I’m a professional cuddlebug and certified cutie. My favorite hobbies include making air biscuits, rolling around like a goofball, and charming the caretakers into giving me all the pets. Right now, I’m lounging on my comfy couch, waiting for the weather to cool down so I can explore the outdoor areas later. Fresh air and evening breezes are the best!

I have feline leukemia, but that doesn’t stop me from loving big and snuggling even bigger. I’ve got so much affection to give, and I share it with anyone who stops by for a cuddle.

If you think it’s wonderful that a place like this exists for cats like me, I’d be so grateful if you’d consider supporting the sanctuary. We’re not funded by the government so everything comes from kind-hearted folks who believe in giving cats like me a safe, happy life. Your donation helps make sure we get the care, comfort, and love we deserve, no matter how long we’re here. 💕

Thank you for helping me and my friends live our best lives. 🐱💖
