We recently helped a group of cats in #Warren that have spent years reproducing. Your support allowed us to provide vet care, including spay/neuter, so that they can live healthier lives and prevent more kittens from being born outside.
Silas is just one of the cats benefiting from your generosity. He is thriving indoors and will soon have surgery for an injured eye.
Thank you for helping cats like Silas get the life-changing care they need to live with dignity. Together, we are changing the landscape for cats in RI!

🦷 Aggie’s Tooth Fairy Fund: Help Cover Her Dental Costs! 🦷
When Aggie first came to us from a colony in Warren, she was in rough shape. Her little body was battling a raging upper respiratory infection, and it was clear she’d been struggling for a while. Aggie was scared, sniffly, and tired, but even on her hardest days, she had a spark of determination in her eyes that told us she wasn’t giving up—and neither were we.
As we cared for her, it became clear that her URI wasn’t her only challenge. Poor Aggie had terrible dental disease that was making it even harder for her to heal. But today, thanks to our friends at Vetco Total Care Smithfield, Aggie had her much-needed dental surgery, and though it was a big one (16 teeth removed!), we know she’s going to feel so much better moving forward.
While we are thrilled for Aggie’s new beginning, her care hasn’t come cheap. Her dental alone cost $2,500, and that’s just the start. When you factor in pre-op bloodwork, exams, vaccinations, URI treatment, and follow-up care, the costs add up quickly.
We love helping cats like Aggie, giving them the second chance they deserve, but we can’t do it without your support. Your donation today will help cover Aggie’s care and ensure we can continue saying “yes” to cats like her—cats who need us the most.
Aggie’s journey to healing is a reminder of the incredible things we can do together. With your help, we can give Aggie, and so many others like her, the bright futures they deserve. Every dollar makes a difference.

Cleveland 1!
🎥 From the streets to the sheets!
This handsome orange guy was found outside by a kind-hearted Good Samaritan, battling a nasty upper respiratory infection. Thanks to their quick action, he's now safe, getting the care he needs—and as you can see, he's loving the TLC!
Even with all he’s been through, he’s already showing his sweet, snuggly side, purring away while soaking up belly rubs. 🧡
Stay tuned for more updates as this resilient little fighter heals and shows us even more of his personality!

Meet Cordelia, the 2.5-year-old queen of chill who’s all about treats, cat condos, and getting ALL the pets (watch the video for proof 😻). She’s a little shy at first—kind of like a cat-sized drama queen—but once she warms up, she’s a playful, sweet, and slightly diva-ish bundle of joy. 💅

Today, our community cat team was in #Warren helping a community member with a group of community cats living in their neighborhood. This kind-hearted individual has been feeding stray cats for years, but their recent health issues has made this challenging.
Rhode Islanders throughout the state care for community cats by providing food and shelter, but often can’t afford spay and neuter services. That’s why we established our Community Cat program in 2020.
The Warren group has at least 15 cats who need spay/neuter services and we estimate it will cost $125 per cat. Our work is community-supported and we do not receive state or city funding.
Can you help our friends from Warren by sponsoring a spay? A donation of $5 or $10 can make a difference!

We strive for a day when kittens aren’t born outside.
Every year, a significant amount of resources are dedicated to rescuing kittens. The “lucky” ones get to grow up in foster homes and find loving families, but what about the others?
Limited resources means too many grow up outside, contribute to overpopulation, and are not socialized to humans. But what if we used those resources to prevent this cycle from happening?
You can help us break this cycle by sponsoring a spay for $25. We are more than halfway to our goal — let’s do this! 💪🏼
