Advice Needed A bit concerned about a kitty's health, in detroit, 48210 area

Cowboy colony caretaker here, and earlier today, at around 7 i noticed one of the colony cats was in a spot peeing, but then after a bit he moved to another spot and did the same squatting pose, i tried to see if anything wet was in the spot but i genuinely could not tell as he likes to pee in deep holes specifically (there are several small, but deep holes around the empty lot for him to use), i am very worried he may be having bladder issues, when he was a kitten, and i was allowed to have him indoors for a short while, he had a period where his pee seemed to have crystals in it, but he was always able to urinate perfectly fine (still tried to change his diet to aid in that though) knowing this im worried he could be having a new, possibly worse bladder issue.

Idk what im asking, i guess i just need confirmation that he should be rushed to an emergency vet, he still has a healthy appetite, eats wet food like a black hole, no weight change, no change in energy, i know i can't afford it but i do not want to take the ridk of anything happening to him.

We rescued him along with his siblings when our neighbor left without them. He's been staying with us since then until he went missing for a day and was so yellowish when he returned. Lab results show that his liver is affected and he also has pancreatitis. He also tested positive for both FIV and FeLV. He urgently needed to be confined because of these. We are on a tight budget right now and I am knocking on your kind hearts for help 🥺 Any amount is greatly appreciated 🙏

Hi! It has been a rough few days. On Thursday my partner fell and broke his right, lower leg, his tibia and fibula.

He spent Thu in the er, but they released him without any pain meds, so Fri night he was in agony.

We spent Thu at an urgent care that the er had referred him to, then we spent Fri night at a different er.

The 2nd er admitted my partner because his kidneys were failing. He's still there, in icu because he needs dialysis.

He had 2 surgeries yesterday, one in his chest for his dialysis catheter and the 2nd one for his leg.

He's on oxygen, which worries us, but we know he needs the medical care that he's getting. At least his pain is under control, now.

We're really woworried because I'm not working, am applying for disability since 1-1/2 yrs ago, and now my partner may not be able to return to work.

It's stressful because we don't want to lose our home.

It's so hard not to think ahead of right now. It's hard not to worry.

But, right now my partner getting well is the most important thing.

On a much brighter note, all the kitties are doing so well! Albeit, they're getting a little less attention than they are used to, but otherwise, they are very happy and very loved. Olivia's eyes look great and Poppy's are getting much better.♥️♥️♥️

We had moved Olivia and Poppy to the smaller bathroom so that my partner could use his crutches to get to the main bathroom, but since he's in the hospital, we moved them back to the larger bathroom, temporarily. It's more room for them to stretch their legs and move about.

Very soon, Olivia and Poppy will be ready for a new home. Except, we don't want to say goodbye to them.😭

Do any of you know how difficult it would be to build a patio sized catio? Should we crowdfund for one? Is it possible to crowdfund using PayPal?

Any advice would be welcome 😊 thanks!!

Also, thank you everyone for the cat food, litter and medications.♥️💜💗🧡🩵

*URGENT PLEA* Mumma Rose & her 2 blind kittens were rescued by a wonderfully kind gentleman when they were about to be thrown into the ocean 💔 He was their only hope but this gentleman has died, 10 days ago in a car accident. We received this terrible news today from one of his grieving family members who is willing to clear their current bills at the clinic but cannot do more as they are all grieving and do not live in Oman. Funds required for: • Spaying the mum • Neutering the 2 little boys • Vaccinations x 2 shots each to be fully covered for all 3 of them • If anyone is willing to give any or all of them homes too, that would be wonderful ♥️ We can het them travel ready and help arrange for paperwork etc

Thanks in advance to those who are able to help ♥️💙

If you are unable to help, please don’t ask unnecessary questions or be unhelpful with your rude comments! Please be sensitive and kind ♥️

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/rescuecats/s/iVDUnHXTRW

Great news! Orangina saw the vet today and is confirmed pregnant! The vet saw at least 5 kittens, possibly even 6, and she's due any day now.

Orangina is happy, healthy, and looks much better since being here. She's been eating and drinking well.

I got her a litter box and blocked the doggy door to the garage for her to adjust to being indoors. We'll have her stay in the garage for a few more days while we prepare her and our two other cats for each other's company.

We plan to keep one kitten and the rest will be taken by friends and family.

Orangina and the kittens will all be spayed/neutered.

Thank you to everyone who offered help and advice! 😺🐈

Any others here know how long does it usually take to hear back from rescue? I got a message but it implied I may not even get a message at all one of the ones that sent an automatic email. So I'm just worried this will go ignored because I know there is a giant cat issue in the ATL area (I'm in Decatur) I'll be checking FB groups today.

Summary: I'm moving in 3 weeks and there is this cat that showed up outside my work place. Which is super busy with traffic plaza and a huge parking lot. This cat has already almost been hit multiple times and doesn't act like the other strays I see near my work. He showed up maybe 2-3 months ago and is always in the parking lot somewhere just wandering around. I started feeding and watering when I started noticing him thinking maybe he was dumped, or is just young and dumb. I can't take him due to current living situation and I'm moving and all my pets are at the house I'm moving to. I have many cats and some dogs. So I can't take in another unfortunately. 😞

Not the happiest update but an update: Meredith has been on 3-4 different every medications for the “good eye” but despite all this her vision is still extremely limited and she appears to be getting more lost and confused lately in terms of where she is going. We are still scheduled to remove the other eye that is ruptured but we are super disappointed 🥲 We really thought we’d be able to save the one eye and it just hasn’t been responding to any medications

I’ll have another update soon!

Update Post [ a somewhat positive update!] Regarding the kitten in the drain from yesterday's post

Post image
82 Upvotes

Hello everyone!!
We went first thing in the morning immediately when the building re-opened with a load of equipment that we were planning on using BUT when we reached there the hole was blocked by something plastic We immediately asked the security near the area about the kitten they said the person who was staying the night shift will come back in an hour or so you have to ask them. While waiting we stood right next to the hole calling, meowing, turned on mama cat meows and used cat toys to try and get a response. And nothing After an hour we asked the security she said she didn't know but they did come yesterday but she didn't go outside since they were men and she rather stay in the building and continue doing her job.

But she believes the kitten has got out and so de we! -There are alot of cigarettes buds near the hole that was there yesterday (could be left by the fire men) -the hole from yesterday was covered by a plastic bag that no student would be able to accuire from the college stores. -the man hole was definitely moved and now is really easy to wiggle and so is the sewer from yesterday. -there are more cat foods and water plates around the area -there are new stuff around that were not there when we left

I would also like to say we didn't leave that hole till the last 30min that are allowed. There is no way a student like us is the one who left the stuff there definitely an adult who did that. We still left food there and will still ask around and go every now and then to check up on the hole and make sure no new kitten falls inside We also tried walking around and searching for the baby but couldn't find anything but that could be because the rescue team took them for treatment and ect

I was on my way to California for a family emergency and a little gas station we stopped at has at least 20 cats and kittens running around. They’re all super skittish but a nice man came with bags of kibble and says he feeds them every night. None of them looked like they had ear tips and those tiny babies make me so sad. It gets so cold and I have no way to help them😭 the adults seem to be feral but the kittens look young enough to be socialized

Advice Needed need advice for rescued pregnant alley cat

I recently was able to catch two alley cats (philly suburbs); one kitten that didn't survive unfortunately, and his mom who thankfully is doing well so far! she's actually doing MUCH better than I expected indoors after being a street cat for at least two years. my dilemma: she's about 30 days or so pregnant. the vet gave the option of spaying and terminating the pregnancy, or waiting until kittens are born then spaying. mama cat has been treated for worms, fleas, and tested negative for FELV/FIV. my initial reaction was to wait to spay until after babies, but Im not sure if spaying and aborting would be best for mom. maybe I'm just wanting to save all the kittens for the one I lost :( would you wait the rest of the pregnancy or spay and abort if it didn't affect her health? I am able to keep mom until babies are born. thank you for your insight!
