Carin' About the Strays Rescuing abandoned & orphaned kittens, providing them care & support, and adopting into forever homes Carinโ€™ About The Strays, depends solely on volunteers.

Nonprofit We are based out of Cookeville TN serving Putnam County. We specialize in pregnant females, orphaned kittens, injured animals which are treated at Ragland and Riley Veterinary Hospital . Our rescued animals are placed in a foster home, where they can be socialized and house trained, which gives them a better chance to be adopted, and make the adoption more successful. We are a Cat Rescue

, but will try to help dogs and other animals find the help they need. Our animals have come from environments that were not healthy for the animals such as abandoned animals, orphaned kittens, pregnant females or animals that were given up due to owner financial or other issues. We rely on sponsors and donations to pay for medical bills for our rescue animals. We are always looking for foster parents for our animals that are in need of a loving and caring home. Get Involved! Become a Foster Parent: Fostering animals is a rewarding experience! Many of the animals have had bad experiences with the human population and are scared and untrusting, by becoming a foster home you will be able to socialize and gain the animals trust, and in doing that they will be better prepared to be adopted into their forever homes. It is very rewarding when you recognize the difference you have made in the animals life. Donate can! We accept monetary donations and we also gladly accept pet carriers, cat toys, treats, food, and anything else that can help with the health and comfort of our animals while they are in our care. Any and all donations are appreciated. Contact: [email protected]

Our sweet, shy boy Luther has officially found a family to call his own! This gentle 8-month-old black cat may have needed a little extra time to come out of his shell, but his new family saw the loving, affectionate companion he truly is.

Lutherโ€™s journey from a cautious kitty to a cuddly, chatty sweetheart has been heartwarming to watch, and weโ€™re so excited for him to start this new chapter. With patience, love, and maybe even a feline friend to snuggle with, we know heโ€™s going to thrive in his forever home.

While Luther has found his perfect match, there are still many other wonderful cats waiting for their chance. If youโ€™re looking for a furry friend to bring love into your home, send us a messageโ€”weโ€™d love to help you find the purr-fect companion!

Sweet little Cookie, our 7-month-old tabico, has officially found her perfect match! After being surrendered back to us, we were determined to find her the loving, permanent home she truly deservedโ€”and weโ€™re thrilled to share that sheโ€™s now settling in with her new family!

With her gentle and playful nature, unique beauty, and loving heart, we knew it wouldnโ€™t take long for someone to fall in love with Cookie. Now, she has the security, care, and forever happiness she was waiting for!

While Cookie has found her home, there are still many other cats in need of a second chance. If youโ€™ve been thinking about adopting, weโ€™d love to help you meet your perfect feline companion. Send us a message or stop by to find out whoโ€™s waiting for you!

We recently stepped in to rescue 8 adult cats. These sweet cats have been through a lot. They were originally rescued from a hoarding situation after their owner passed away. A kind family stepped in to care for them, doing their best for almost a year, but now they find themselves in a tough spot and need help finding these cats permanent, loving homes.

Because theyโ€™ve been moved around so much, many of them are scared and unsureโ€”they just need someone patient to show them what love and stability feel like. Could that be you?

We wish we werenโ€™t ๐Ÿ˜ž making another post like this.

We know how often we ask for help, and trust usโ€”we hate it too. But we made a promise to every cat that comes through our rescue: that we would fight for them when no one else would.

๐— ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—˜๐—น๐—ถ๐—ผโ€”his name means โ€œ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ป,โ€ a symbol of warmth, light, and hope. Right now, hope is exactly what he needs. โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

Elio was found with horrific wounds covering his face. At first, we feared he had been attacked. But after an urgent vet visit, we now suspect something even more heartbreakingโ€”an autoimmune disease causing his body to attack itself. Weโ€™ve sent off a biopsy and are anxiously waiting for results.

If Elio had ended up anywhere else, he likely would have been euthanized. But we believe his life is worth fighting for. Despite his pain, he still purrs. He still leans in for head rubs. He still has so much love to give.

We never want to overwhelm you with donation requests, but specialized veterinary care for cases like Elioโ€™s is expensive, and we canโ€™t do this alone. If you can spare even $5, it adds up to life-saving care. If you canโ€™t donate, please share his story.

Zoey, an 11-year-old feline, has faced profound loss after her beloved human companions passed away just weeks apart, leaving her without the only home she had ever known. Initially, the trauma led her to hide and refuse food, but with the unwavering patience and love from her foster family, Zoey has begun to heal and trust again.

This sweet senior has even braved trips to the groomer, emerging with grace and beauty. Zoey thrives in a serene environment and would flourish in a quiet home where she can feel safe and cherished. Her gentle nature makes her an ideal companion for someone seeking a loyal and loving friend.

If you have the compassion and space in your heart to provide Zoey with the forever home she deserves, please reach out to us. Witnessing her transformation from grief to gratitude is a testament to the healing power of love. Letโ€™s give Zoey the peaceful, loving home sheโ€™s been waiting for.

Candy is a classic marble tabby with a heart full of love, but her journey hasnโ€™t been an easy one. After living through many tough situationsโ€”going from home to home and even finding herself on the streetsโ€”Candy is finally ready to find a place where she can truly settle in and be loved the way she deserves.

This sweet girl is gentle and affectionate, and all she needs now is a loving family to show her that she is home for good. Candy is looking for a quiet, calm environment with experienced cat owners who can provide her with the stability and security sheโ€™s been missing. She would do best in a home without younger children or dogs, where she can be the center of attention and feel safe.

Candyโ€™s dream is to find a family who will shower her with patience and love, helping her blossom into the confident, happy cat sheโ€™s meant to be. Could you be the one to give Candy the forever home sheโ€™s been waiting for?

She gave everything to protect her little ones, and now that theyโ€™ve found their forever homes, itโ€™s finally her turn.

Blackberry adores children and will happily snuggle up for love and attention. Sheโ€™s a queen at heart and NEEDS to be the ONLY cat in the householdโ€”after all, sheโ€™s earned the right to be spoiled!

If youโ€™re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion whoโ€™s ready to leave the bushes behind and embrace a life of comfort and love, Blackberry is waiting to meet you.
