Really looking for anyone with bottle baby experience who could take on up to 5 2-week old kittens (or two 3 week old kittens). Things with mama Shiva are just not stabilizing and she is beginning to neglect the kittens and I am going to have to step in. I am beyond capacity, overwhelmed, exhausted.

It's National Pet Choking Prevention Day! Did you know cats can choke on everyday items? Keep your kitty safe by cutting up string/yarn toys, chopping treats into mini pieces, and avoiding small, swallowable objects. Know the signs of choking: pawing at mouth, gagging/no sound, & panicked behavior

Happy Tailz is the rescue that took the other paralyzed Scooter we had shared about 3 weeks ago. We are hoping he made it out safely, but in the meantime, this rescue needs help rebuilding basically from the ground up. They are a critical shelter for special needs cats in the Tampa area.

Some kids made adoption signs to hang up around the shelter. Most of them were cute and sweet but I greatly enjoy this straight up threat.
Slightly misspelled sign written by a child in green marker that says “adopt me or else!” But else is spelled e l e s.

Noooooo Pepper is still here! I really think it’s because he has a resting bitch face. People think he’s mean and he’s just the opposite. 💔 Other cats with similar age/needs don’t usually take this long. ☹️ #bigstretch

VERMONT: Pepper is still at the shelter. 💔 There is no risk of him being euthanized, he's just very sad and lonely. I found out why he was returned and it was 100% not his fault. He has no behavioral or litter box issues. He's just a lovely little man and someone will be SO lucky to adopt him.
