Little Coral from the Mermaid kittens got the BEST home! She has her own little girl to love and she goes along with being held like a baby! It's adorable! Sisters Ariel and Pearl are still patiently waiting. They are sweet, playful, and adorable. They are just about 12 weeks old.

These girls have overcome too much adversity from their rough beginnings to end up not being adopted. Please share so they can find their very own families to love! Email [email protected] for info or questions!

Introducing one of our adults, Mr. Big! Big, bold, and beautiful, Mr. Big lives up to his name! This handsome fellow has an outgoing, bold personality. He is curious and playful and enjoys being petted on his terms. Mr. Big will do best with an experienced cat owner who understands cat body language and mood cues. He will do best in a home with adults.

Mr. Big gets along very well with the other foster kitties in his home and tends to be submissive to the more dominant ones. He is not bothered at all by the foster dogs in his home.

Mr. Big is a young adult and is simply gorgeous with his fluffy, soft, peach-colored coat and vibrant blue eyes. His foster mom was searching for a more "dignified" name for him, but the names "Mister", "Bigs," and "Mr. Big" just seem to fit his big personality.

Mr. Big has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Let's get him a home of his own!

Anyone who's had one knows.....black cats are just the BEST! Great personalities and just well-rounded darlings! Featuring two of our beautiful black kitties available now. They both get extra beauty points for their gorgeous long/medium coats!

Little Violet is just a baby. She was rescued from near an equipment maintenance area hiding in some tires. She is super outgoing, friendly, courageous and just adorable!!

We also have little Margie. Margie is a fluffy, outgoing young lady with many of the personality traits of Violet...she is courageous and super sweet! Margie was supposed to be TNVR'd but was just too sweet and needs a home of her own where she's safe and loved. Margie is a very young adult. We are guessing about a year and a half or so!

We have a sad update on our Mermaid kittens. The smallest of the litter with the most injuries was a little boy and we named him Prince Eric. The little fellow had been growing somewhat and his injuries seemed to be healing, but he was having continuous issues with being able to pass stool. He saw the vet multiple times, but as he got closer to the 8-week mark it got worse. Suddenly he was not his happy little playful self, he did not feel well, and he seemed to be asking for help.

We ended up at the emergency veterinarian and after sedation and some diagnostic tests, it was determined he had a congenital deformity of the colon. He would never be able to thrive or live a normal life. The kindest thing to do was let him go, and that's what we did. He passed peacefully while being cuddled and loved.

We are thankful that he did not suffer and die alone in the maggot-infested condition in which he was found. His 3 siblings are doing well and we will post updates on their journey to adoption! RIP little Prince Eric. You mattered.

WARNING: Graphic photos!

THIS is why we TNR. THIS kind of suffering can be prevented if people will just spay/neuter. THIS is a people problem.

A little over a week ago these four little 3-week old babies were discovered covered in flies and maggots with raw, open wounds. They were infested with fleas and parasites. We immediately took them to the veterinarian for treatment. Several hours later they were stable enough for home care with medication and bottle feeding. The two smallest babies suffered the worst wounds and were the weakest. Digestive complications necessitated another trip to the vet. Two more vet visits were subsequently needed to debride and treat the wounds. The smallest kitten's almost entire back side is an open wound and must be so painful, but she and the whole family are fighters!

We are calling the little family the Mermaid Kittens due to where they were found. These four will be okay in the end. But what about the many others that will never be discovered and will die slow, miserable deaths? It is entirely preventable.

Donations to help with the Mermaid Kittens' ongoing medical expenses are much needed and appreciated at PayPal.Me/animalfriendssociety, Zelle at [email protected], or checks to Animal Friends Society, PO Box 12314, Brooksville, FL, 34603. AFS is a 501(c)(3) organization and donations are tax deductible! We will update on their progress!

We want to share a recent rescue that is truly ONE FOR THE BOOKS! Back in November we were called about a fluffy black kitty that was wandering the Publix parking lot asking for food and almost getting hit by traffic. Half of the town was trying to catch her but with no success. We thought it would be an easy project, but she was very trap saavy.

After many long nights sitting in the parking lot, a dedicated volunteer who fed her every morning and night to establish a schedule, and some creative thinking, we are happy to announce that Mama Angel has been rescued, along with her 2 beautiful babies, Apple and Hope!

A few weeks ago we were successful in finally catching Mama Angel using a drop trap. We were elated until it was discovered the next day at her spay appointment that she was actively nursing kittens. We were devastated thinking there were little ones all alone with impending bad weather and a cold front moving in. We searched and searched the area looking for a likely hiding place, to no avail. We had to release mom the next morning so that she could care for her babies, although we really did not want her living on the street.

In a first for us, we decided to track mom using an Apple air tag on a breakaway collar to figure out where the babies were. (Hence the name Apple and Hope for Buck Hope Road) It worked like a charm! We discovered the babies were several months old and could eat on their own. After getting the little family established at a regular feeding station, we made the move on a very early, cold morning and were able to trap the babies. Mom was not falling for it again, but on a return evening trip she could not resist the salmon offered and she was successfully rescued.

Mom Angel is sweet and enjoys belly rubs. Big boy Apple is very sweet with big purrs and snuggles. Little sister Hope is somewhat fearful but gets confidence from her brother, so it would be ideal if they could remain together. They are like fluffy, soft little bear cubs about 3 and a half months old, and we are so grateful they are safe and sound. None of this would have been possible without the efforts and support of our trapping volunteers and an Apple Air Tag! (It did become a bit of an obsession staying glued to the tracker!)

Many had expressed a desire to rescue them and we are grateful for everyone's concern. The family has now been spayed, neutered, microchipped, and vaxed. Please contact [email protected] for more info!

Anyone searching for a declawed kitty? We never recommend declawing, but these babies are already declawed and find themselves about to be homeless. Their loving owner passed away and her daughter has no stable place to live with them. There are 3. Chomper and Lil Bit are brother and sister and are 15 years old, although they act like younger kitties! Trixie is only 1 year old. She is reserved, but will come around. All are up to date on shots.

We are courtesy posting to try to help these babies. If anyone has room and a heart to help, we will put you in touch with the owner's daughter. She is working on providing better photos!

Chomper is the black and white boy, Lil Bit is the calico, and little Trixie is the gray and white baby
