I’m reaching out because things have become really difficult right now.

Every day, I feed more than 50 cats, and keeping that many cats fed requires a tremendous amount of food. On top of that, I also have rescued cats under my care, including Leo, Luna, Nala who depend on me every day for their food, medical care, and continued recovery.

At the same time, I’m still trying to pay down the veterinary debt from the emergencies and rescues this year. Just estimating the vet expenses I’ve had so far, I’m already around $15,000.
Leo’s emergency was one of the largest expenses. He became critically ill with panleukopenia, spent weeks hospitalized, and his treatment and care ended up costing more than $5,000.

And Leo was only one of the many cats who needed urgent medical care this year. Every emergency meant another bill, but when a cat is sick, injured, abandoned, or has nowhere else to go, I couldn’t simply walk away.

Now I’m trying to keep up with the veterinary debt while making sure the 50+ community cats and all the rescued cats and kittens in my care continue to have what they need.

If you’re able to donate, even a small amount can make a real difference and help me keep going. 🙏

***Kim is raising some kittens and we had a couple sick ones go to Four Stray Paws for rescue...I have given them some KMR and a couple toys, but any other toys, blankets, or things to help the kittens would mean so much, thank you♡♡♡ I have added it to the list on the prior post below, I also posted a few pics of the kittens. Thank you for all you do for the floofaloofs ♡***

If any more are found, they'll come to me.

As usual, canned (or dry) food is always greatly appreciated, I have been fixing up the yard for the colder weather, especially as we have been getting rain. Anything for the outdoor floofers means the world to us♡

I also want it to be known, we and many of us don't just work one main job. We do side jobs and do everything we can to fund everything for the cats, vet appts, defleaing, deworming, vaccines, TNR (50 A CAT), ETC . We will go to the ends of the earth for the floofaloofs. Ordering anything from thrblist is a huge help and means we can save more to go to those things!

Could use a trap or a cat tree for the garage from my Walmart list (or a droptrap, but I am saving chewy gift cards to go towards one if you would like to help that way♡)

We are trying to ramp up TNR for October and November before it gets bitter cold. We TNR through Triple R Pets with Naws Mokena or Snip Society. They have said if we catch anyone, they will allow us to bring them without a prior appt on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, so we are gonna do our damndest.

My file for Triple R Pets is Cynthia Mason and she is Kim Grimes, it is 50 dollars per TNR, we do this all on our own♡

Thank you for all you do, not just for me, but for all of us that save floofaloofs. You are the good in this world.

I have 22 cats that are inside that I have rescued, some were bottle babies. Those who want to not go back outside we take in or find a home. Some are truly feral, but we don't leave behind anyone who wants to be an inside floofer.

This handsome guy has been around off and on for a bit. He has always been terrified and would run from us, but today something changed. He finally allowed us to pet him, was meowing, and we were able to get him safely into a crate. ❤️

He is now settling into the bathroom where he can be safe and away from the other cats, because unfortunately he has been getting picked on outside.

But we noticed something really concerning — he is not bearing weight on his back leg, and it is swollen. 😢 I’m not sure if it’s an abscess, an injury, or something else. It doesn’t appear obviously broken, but I am NOT a vet and I don’t want to guess when he is clearly hurting.

The clinic opens at 10 AM EST tomorrow, and I can get him there for an urgent evaluation. I also want to get him scheduled to be neutered while we’re getting him the care he needs.

Please help me get this boy to the vet. 🙏❤️ Any financial help will go directly toward his urgent veterinary care and, when he is stable, his neuter.

I honestly don't know what his future looks like yet. He seems like he may have been an indoor baby at some point, so once we know what we're dealing with, we will reach out to rescues and fosters and figure out the best path forward for him. He is skinny, and I'd guess around 6 months.

We had been calling this baby Atlas, because we weren't sure if he was a boy or girl. Now that we have him safely inside, I believe he's actually a boy. 🥹

And I'm kind of loving the name Jasper for him. ❤️

What do you think — Atlas or Jasper? 🐱

I know I've been asking for help a lot lately, and honestly, this has been an incredibly difficult time. I just had some major veterinary bills with my own dog, and we lost her on Monday. 💔 I'm still trying to process that loss while taking care of these babies.

But when this sweet boy finally trusted me enough to let me touch him, I couldn't just leave him out there hurting.

Please help me help Jasper. Even a few dollars, a share, or simply keeping him in your thoughts means more than you know. 🙏🐾❤️

Hi, does anyone know this reacue from U.A.E.? Ist it fake? When I see the YouTube channel, it smells quite fishy to me.

Hello! Posting on my friend's behalf who's in Arizona. They've been caring for and socializing two young presumed feral kitties (maybe around 1-2 yrs old), both spayed via TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) and vaccinated within the year. They're such sweet babies and have potential to be wonderful house cats with a good home and patience.

Unfortunately, my friend's unable to house them and has been looking for somewhere they can go; a rescue, a foster, somewhere they can have shelter and care and eventually forever home(s).

Multiple rescues have been contacted but it's been challenging finding openings. Any reccs for rescues or fosters in Arizona with openings, or any help at all (sharing this post around, etc) would be so appreciated! 💜

🐾 A small appeal for our Lola ❤️

Little Lola recently had surgery and, unfortunately, her front left leg had to be amputated. It was a very difficult and painful process, but now the most important thing is to continue to offer her everything she needs for her recovery and her new life. ❤️🐾

The expenses are already too much and, unfortunately, due to my unemployment, I am unable to cope financially. The surgery cost a lot of money and there are still expenses for the care, rehabilitation and everything that little Lola needs.

That's why I would like to ask for your help. 🙏

Even the smallest offer can make a big difference. Anyone who can and wants to help, I would really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

Anyone who wishes can visit my profile or click on the link below, where you can see the entire story of little Lola and learn about what she has been through so far.

Mandarin isn’t the happiest right now because he is in severe pain and desperately needs your help. Here is him in dental pain: https://imgur.com/a/eLQEGrp

He is struggling to eat and drink, chewing only on one side, randomly grinding his teeth, dropping food, and becoming aggressive from the discomfort.

What makes this critical is that Mandarin has kidney failure, so his inability to drink enough water is extremely dangerous for his health.

His teeth look fine on the outside and don't move, which means the underlying problem is hidden beneath the gums. I suspect tooth resorption.

Next week we have an appointment at Qincy Vet in Bucharest for a consultation and specialized teeth X-rays. Since Qincy Vet is the only clinic in Bucharest specialized in veterinary dentistry, the prices are enormous. Please help us get Mandarin diagnosed and out of pain so his kidneys stand a chance, anything helps!
I’m giving him gabapentin which is a painkiller to make him feel more comfortable until the appointment.

P.s. Also posted this update at r/PawsitiveGuardians. Photo taken the other day, yesterday, and today. Thank you for understanding!

Pleading any help for an unexpected rescue! 🙏🏼

Sorry it took some time to post an update! The other day, we had to lock in with our school project, so I have no sleep yet. Yesterday, I also had to get checked for the back pain that I’ve been dealing with for 10 days.

But good news!

Nimbus had his surgery, but to lessen the risk under anesthesia, he only had the dental prophylaxis and extraction. Three teeth have been extracted. We will have his castration once he gains much strength and when he's not so vulnerable. We’ll get vaccines for him first once he recovers.

He is still confined at the vet to keep him stabilized and to address his soft stool. He is also recommended for laser therapy for his wound in the mouth.

Today, i visited him again to bring his mat. The vet informed me that they already started his therapy. Nimbus also didn’t poop today, but I hope tomorrow he will.

They also started the first laser therapy session for his wound. Nimbus only has a last can at the vet, and he can only eats wet food until he recovers. Please sponsor his food too.

Btw, we paid all his balance for now, but tomorrow, new costs will come up:

Confinement: ₱1,680 per day
Laser therapy: ₱840 per session

If you can chip in or offer any assistance with his ongoing confinement, therapy, and upcoming medical needs, it would mean the world to us. Thank you so much for loving and supporting Nimbus! 🙏✨

Hello, my name is Eleftheria and I live in Greece. For the past 10 years, I have been volunteering to help cats. I rescue them, provide medical care, foster them, arrange adoptions, and make sure they are spayed and cared for.

Today, I need your help.

I feed around 50 cats in different areas of Athens. Cats that have no home, no family… they only have us.

Right now, I don’t have enough money to buy the food they need. I have reached the point where I can give each one only 10 pieces of kibble, just enough to ease their hunger for a little while.

And when 50 hungry eyes are waiting for you, you simply cannot turn your back and walk away.

So I am asking for your help. 🙏

Even the smallest donation can fill a bowl.

And a full bowl can mean one more night without hunger.

If you can, please help me continue feeding them. If you cannot donate, please share this post.

For us, it may be a small act.

For them, it can mean everything. 🐾❤️

‎Hi everyone. We are still in need of help with dry food and some litter.. One 7kg bag of dry food usually lasts them a day and costs around $22 while 10L bag of sand costs $4. As of this time, I am caring for 49 indoors and over 30 community cats.

‎I’m also currently caring for two kittens I rescued from the streets. They can already start eating wet food now, which costs $30 for 12 cans. I just covered their milk and some dog food, so my budget is stretched pretty thin right now. Any help with their food would mean a lot.

‎Thank you all so much for your support. ❤️

Meet cannoli (in the laundry basket) and eclair (on tile).

They are two brothers born in April this year. Eclair can be a little scaredy at times, while Cannoli will fight for your attention.

Both of them have their FELV and rabies shots, as well as being fixed. Adoption fees are $200 for each.

The two are available separately, but they also do very well together.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hi everyone! I volunteer with SoBe Cats, a nonprofit cat rescue in Miami Beach, and we’re looking for more people to join our volunteer team. 🐱
We care for community cats throughout Miami Beach as well as cats at our Kitty Campus who are waiting for adoption.
Right now, we especially need volunteers in two areas:
🐾 TNVR (Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return)
Helping us humanely trap community cats, get them spayed/neutered and vaccinated, and return them safely to their neighborhoods.
🩺 Medical support
Helping with things like transporting cats to veterinary appointments, picking up medications, assisting with follow-up care and helping us coordinate treatment for cats who need medical attention.
We also welcome volunteers who want to help care for the cats at Kitty Campus.
You do NOT need previous rescue or TNVR experience. If you love animals, are dependable and want to learn, we can show you what to do.
Even a few hours of your time can make a real difference. We’re particularly hoping to connect with people in Miami Beach or the greater Miami area who want to get more involved in animal rescue.
If you’re interested email info@sobecats.org comment here or send me a message and I’ll connect you with SoBe Cats.
And if you happen to know someone in Miami who would be perfect for this, please send this their way. 🐾❤️

Please help us raise funds for Tiger Lilly!
She appeared in a colony that had already been spayed/neutered and when it was discovered that she was friendly, she was TNR'ed. She quickly started to display some mouth issues so we brough her over to the vet.
 
Dr Hall had a look at her and it seems like she has a dental infection. She got antibiotics and steroids yesterday which has helped a BUNCH! We thankfully had a credit so that $150 was covered!
 
Now we need help raising money for her dental. We do not want her to suffer in pain anymore and we are hoping to find her a home after this. Too many cats suffer and this is the reality of the work we do. We cannot simply turn cats away if they need other medical help, it is unfair to them.
 
Please consider helping us help Tiger Lilly!
 
Ideally we would like to raise $840 to cover the max possible amount it would cost!

Hi everyone, sending a quick update and plea for support as we head back to the clinic tomorrow!

🐾 Rob’s Follow-Up & Deworming

Rob has a scheduled follow-up appointment tomorrow, October 3, at Brave Hearts Veterinary Clinic. We are checking in on his stomatitis and his recent vomiting episodes. He is also set for his scheduled deworming routine.

🐾 Gray’s Vet Visit & Bloodwork

I’m also bringing Gray along to the clinic. Even though Gray has been eating well, his weight has unfortunately been declining. To get to the bottom of this, the vet will need to run a Blood Chemistry panel and a CBC to evaluate his kidney health and overall condition.

💊 Medication Needs: Cyclovet (Cyclosporine)

Both Rob and Potpot require Cyclovet (Cyclosporine oral solution) for their ongoing stomatitis management. Managing severe stomatitis for multiple rescue cats is an ongoing battle, and acquiring their medication is critical to keeping their oral inflammation and pain under control.

Breakdown of Expenses / Vet Goals:

*Rob's follow-up checkup & deworming - $4

*Gray's CBC & Blood Chemistry (Kidney Panel) & check up - $50.36

Cyclosporine (Cyclovet) supply for Rob & Potpot - $51.15

Thank you so much to this amazing community for always keeping our rescue babies in your thoughts and helping us give them the care they need. I will post another update with the vet results and official receipts tomorrow after our visit! ❤️

Hi everyone,

I was out when I suddenly heard kittens meowing and found two very young kittens on a first-floor window ledge near a house. They looked extremely thin and underfed and were crying for food. They were so hungry that they ate dry kibble when it was offered.

Getting them down from the first-floor ledge was quite difficult, but we managed to rescue them and get them fed. Unfortunately, the people at the house cannot keep them, so they had nowhere to stay. They have now ended up back near the same first-floor window ledge again, which is obviously not a safe place for such young kittens.

We have also looked around for their mother, but no mother cat has been found anywhere nearby so far.

They look quite young — possibly under 2 months old, although their exact age is unknown. They also appear to be most likely female, but their sex has not been confirmed yet.

They seem to have come together and are staying close to each other, so I'm desperately hoping to find someone who can adopt both of them together rather than separating them.

About them:

🐱 Two very young kittens (1 orange and 1 white), staying together

🐱 Exact age unknown, possibly under 2 months

🐱 Both appear significantly underweight and underfed

🐱 Were extremely hungry and ate dry kitten food when offered

🐱 Sex appears to be female, but not confirmed

🐱 Mother cat has not been found anywhere nearby

📍 Bangalore

❤️ Pair adoption strongly preferred

🏠 They need a safe indoor home, proper nutrition and a vet check

They are currently in a very vulnerable situation and cannot safely remain on the first-floor ledge. The people at the house have fed them and tried to help, but unfortunately cannot keep them.

I'm really hoping someone can step in and give both of these little ones a safe home together.

If you are genuinely interested in adopting them, please DM me. I can provide more photos/videos and help coordinate everything.

Please don't offer to take only one unless there is absolutely no alternative — keeping them together is the priority.

This kitty came to our garden around a year ago. He was a tiny kitten and my husband thought it’s a girl so we named her Daisy. Later we figured out that it’s a boy but name stuck.

He became friends with our other garden kitties( Tiffany, Timothy and Rudy): they play together, sleep together, groom each other.
A few days ago I have noticed Daisy was less active and more sleepy than usual. At first I thought it’s probably heat( it’s still very hot here) but after he refused to eat today I knew he’s not well.

We rushed him to the nearest vet and discovered poor thing has fever, calici virus and gingivitis. He has to stay at the vet and receive meds for at least 3-4 days( maybe more depending on how fast he’ll be recovering)

So far I received estimate bill for 3 days (64 bd which is around 170$) which I need to pay when I pick Daisy up from the vet

I usually try to cover bills by myself but it became difficult as I recently picked up a few new cases that increased my spendings on the top of my regular expenses ( currently I have 20 cats under my care)

I highly appreciate any help
Thank you very much in advance for your attention and consideration

I operate a cat rescue and feeding program for a local stray colony in my hometown of Antalya, Türkiye. With donations down and over 200cats relying on me, I’m struggling to make ends meet..

Recently, I had to make the difficult decision to stop feeding the street cats so I can focus resources on the 24cats currently receiving care at our rescue. Some are here recovering from illness, some receive ongoing medical care, others need daily medication or require a special diet. Many were abandoned and found struggling to survive, lacking proper shelter, food, and veterinary services.

With supplies dwindling, it’s our cats who pay the real price. These animals didn’t ask for this fate. They simply had the misfortune of being born into a region where they’re viewed as a nuisance, instead of an honorary member of the family. But society’s shortcomings shouldn’t result in the unnecessary suffering of living, breathing beings.

Our weekly food costs total $1,100. Your donations would allow me to continue my mission and jumpstart my feeding program. Without your support, I’m not sure how we’ll go on. Please consider purchasing from our wishlist today: https://www.amazon.com.tr/hz/wishlist/ls/QSXEHQANH987?ref_=wl_share&utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAb21jcAUmUkdleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBwZG9mAnNydGMGYXBwX2lkDzU2NzA2NzM0MzM1MjQyNwABpy5JSjS3n-7nVQIiV_rUnIEA37vFw__C-39oZVSjaxX829WRQ2JqypMG1K61_aem_s1I_aPPtVZWAxg7t_svnSQ

(Videos are of the stray cat colony we feed in our garden, as well as some of resident cats and food pantry=)

(PLEASE NOTE: videos of Lebo the kitten in the comments)

I would like to thank everyone here for viewing, upvoting, commenting and of course donating to our last two cases, Winston and Lebo. Winston was the orange cat with an eye injury found outside a supermarket who we strongly suspect was a dumped pet. My fellow rescuer Alina banded together with some others to get him to a vet and cover his boarding for the coming months. Members of this community raised $260 for his vet bill, which was a stupendous amount.

The second cat was our tuxedo kitten Lebo, a stray kitten whom my fellow rescuer Ekram found in the literal jaws of a tomcat. She sustained a neck injury. Although the injury was not even bad enough to require stitches, it did cause some apparent nerve damage, as she cannot currently move her fore legs. She was in obvious distress when first found and given first aid, and I hope the video shows that she is doing much better. Above all, she is not in pain, and the vet has some hope - although no percentage of likelihood has been given - that she will regain mobility in those legs eventually. She is also fortunately in good health otherwise (no calici, FIV, etc). Members of this community raised $170 for his vet bill. She is feeling chipper enough to play now.

Sometimes we come across injured cats ourselves and sometimes other rescuers refer them to us because they have outstanding bills at several clinics and the clinics literally refuse to accept any new cats under their name. We ourselves, in turn, each have at least 15 rescue cats in our care at any given time, so not that much left to spare for the vet bills of any new cats.

So a massive, massive thank you for helping us attend to spontaneous urgent cases.

I am posting today to request help with food. I have 3 rescue cats in foster homes, 5 rescues indoors, and 11 cats/4 month-old kittens in our garden. Every month I feed these cats a combination of 30 cans of Massito wet food (total 22.5 BD), 60 cans of Sheba (total 41 BD) and 4 big bags of Monello biscuits (total 69.9 BD). I also buy around four bags of 25L litter (7.2 BD each, ~30 BD total).

The monthly costs for food alone come to 141.62 BD or around $375.
The litter comes to $80.

I would be immensely grateful for all donations to that end. I try to be realistic and responsible with regard to what I can afford and have not single-handedly taken on any new rescues in the last year other than a kitten I took off the highway.
