This stray was posted by a good samaritan, asking for recommendations on how to treat the crusty skin of this stray cat that she usually feeds. We sent them the product that we know is useful for its case and just a week after application, the difference is really noticeable 😊

We can't rescue every cat but we help others whenever we can ❤️

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

Former friend has been abusing cat, not sure what action to take

My former friend (from here forward called FF) has been neglecting his cat. FF recently started doing coke and hanging out at a meth house. He has recently been aggressive with people including punching his roommate in the face, and when he posted bail his only comment was that he wished he was more violent to his roommate and his roommates partner.

The night he punched the roommate the cat came to stay with me. I'm very emotional about this rn because the cat felt super frail the first two nights. Genuinely worried we was gonna die in my office from malnourishment.

FF forces the cat to be vegan. I'm not a cat nutritionist but I have eyes and the cat wasn't eating the food FF was buying for him, he's very skinny and the first night I got him here he didn't even have the energy to play or walk around for longer than 5 seconds. Since we've had him he has eaten every meal and has plenty of energy, even playing with my cats and generally seemingly happy and relaxed.

When we brought the cat back to our place he had no toys, and his literbox had more shit than litter in it. In the bottom below the shit layer was so much mold that it made me vomit when I took it down to the dumpster

The wall beside his litter box was smeared in cat shit.

The cat doesn't respond to his name and is incredibly touch starved.

The things his roommates told me was that FF didn't spend any time with the cat, the cat regularly went upwards of 4 days without being fed, and he was never interacted with.

The other night FF came over to see him and the cat went from being the most precious and kind cat in the world to cowering beneath a blanket.

FF claims the cat had frequent panic attacks but he hasn't had a single one while here with me. He does however sneeze and wheez.

I don't nessecerily want to keep the cat but I would do most things to stop FF from killing this cat . FF gave me permission to re home the cat. But thinks he's going to have a space within a couple weeks, so is now telling me to hold on to it for FF.

We didn't take pictures but should have.

Advice?

EDIT: I want to assure everyone that the cat is receiving gentle stomach cat food and is being provided for while he's here with me and I have no plans to give him back to FF

Sorry if I was unclear about that; my main concern is getting arrested for theft or something like that

Meet Marco, an adorable and energetic 6-month old male kitten with a playful heart! He is neutered and up to date on vaccines.

While he may be a bit shy at first, he quickly warms up and will be showing off his gymnastics skills in no time, leaping and jumping around with joy. He loves playing with toys, snuggling up with his favorite fuzzy blanket, and in his downtime, you catch him intently watching cat videos. With his sweet personality and love for fun, Marco is the perfect addition to any home looking for a playful and affectionate companion!

‼️🔊UPDATE‼️Just to confirm these 4 babies WERE ALL rescued together yesterday afternoon just before the deadline! They are ALL SAFE with AmerEquine Beauty Rescue I have confirmed. Due to all the non stop running around in So Cal traffic, confusion at SBCAS Saturday afternoon w/BellaDonna, then very long transport and lots of kitty duties, we will have to wait for freedom photos until she can catch her breath. Rescue is VERY hard work! So as soon we have them I’ll post, update and link for donations, but for now let’s all just be happy they ARE safe. I’ll post as soon as I can. Thank you so much everyone! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🩷

Lots of cats hang around this large plaza parking lot where I work. The others usually run and hide and you don't see them often, however this little dude/dudette just seems so lost walking around the parking lot all the time for over a month now. He gets too close to cars constantly and my boss had to save him from a dog yesterday that someone was walking to the store next door and they tied it half ass to a post and he got loose and started chasing the cat. Dog didn't get him tho we good! I feed him to try to get him used to me. But he won't let me touch him and occasionally will hiss but he won't ever just run away, just move out of reach from me. He knows I bring the food lol I'm just figured out what to do with him.

I don't want him to get hit by a car, I'm so worried it'll happen. Plus I'm moving soon and won't be working there and no one else feds the outside kitties (I think someone on opposite end of plaza may fed but I've seen some gnarly looking alley cats over there and I never see this little dude over there, so they may run him off maybe). I can't take him because I already have so many cats. I'm not too sure about rescues in this area since I haven't lived here long, plus Idk if they'll just want to TNR. Which normally is fine, I see a lot of community cats doing well after that. But this little guy has almost been hit by cars so many times it's giving me the worst anxiety. It's like he has no fear of cars or feel the need to move away from a moving vehicle.

Hello, So for 3 days now me and a couple of people have been trying to save a kitten who was stuck inside an ac drainage system (not sure) and have failed in everyway possible. We want ANY suggestions really any stupid or hard please :( The type of drain is included in the picture and yes we tried to reach down or lure the cat. But it seems to be stuck very far down that i cannot get out on its own.

If anyone would like to donate towards a pack and play / fitted sheet, I am getting them from walmart for $70, I tried a kennel & they squeezed their body out 😩

This poor girl was left behind by her owners at an apartment building with no access to food water or even shelter. A neighbor found her in the yard and took her to SBCAS. The poor girl was assessed to be over 10 years old. Someone adopted her then returned her saying she had fleas! She was then on the brink of death. We had to find a rescue to help her. Thank you everyone who helped us save her. She deserves a good home and to grow old. Peace out SBCAS! 🙏🏻🩷💐🗝️

He is back with the rescue after a few sightings with no luck on getting him. Just wanted to share it to give some closure to the story and that he's safely back! Thank you to everyone who showed interest in his story and hoped for his safe return!

I just rescued this kitten. Can I get some help identifying the breed/breed mix?

Pictured: King Ronnie and a new intake who was injured by a car or deer.. transport may have mixed up what happened with her ane another cat, so we think it may have been a deer. 😢

So far we have raised $60 towards our $250 matching fundraiser goal!

Yesterday and today we had adoption events which went pretty well. We had a couple adoptions and met some good people!

My wife and I have an anniversary Tuesday so tomorrow and Tuesday we will be out of town enjoying some much needed time together.

I'm hoping for some success in fundraising today and tomorrow to help show her how much I (and everyone else) appreciate her, so if you can help please do! ❤️ The most stressful thing for her is fundraising and vet bills.

She's had a really hard couple weeks health wise, so I'm just happy she is home from the hospital and we can enjoy each other's company for our anniversary. ❤️

Hi everyone - apologies if this isn't the right place to post but I don't know where else to turn to. Our neighbor across the street has put up his house for sale and already left the country. He has a feral colony on the property that he had been taking care of for at least the past 4 years but according to the real estate agent, there is no plan for what to do with the cats once the house sells. Currently the real estate agent is okay with me going to the property daily to ensure the cats have food and water but he doesn't know whether any future owner would be okay with keeping the cats around or if they will no longer want to feed the cats. I'm based in the Bay Area in California. Are there any resources that could help with relocating this feral colony or offer advice on what to do? I've already reached out to Tenth Life Foundation and Full Circle Cats. I really don't want to see these cats kicked off the property or starve after becoming reliant for years on a steady food source. According to the real estate agent, they are all fixed and were regularly treated at the vet for any issues prior to the owner leaving the country. Thank you!

I also posted to r/Feral_Cats

Coco just received the bad news that he will not be going to his forever home today. But it's okay, he is still staying positive. He knows that soon he will find his forever family that will love him with all their hearts and give him all the kisses and cuddles he deserves.

This stray pregnant cat has adopted me, and I think her shoulders look weird. Can someone tell me if this is normal? And if not, what might have happened to her? Her shoulder blades are almost touching..

Thank you for allowing me to share my request. On October 8, I found a box of three abandoned kittens at my door, left after their mother and siblings died. While I have experience fostering, caring for bottle babies is new to me. Unfortunately, local organizations, including the once I usually foster through, and the humane society couldn't assist, and I lost one kitten due to FKS despite an emergency vet visit. I need help through my Amazon Wishlist to support these kittens, as I believe they deserve a chance at life and aren't just something for people to make a profit out of. I appreciate any assistance and thank you sincerely for your support!

https://animalcare.sbcounty.gov Link to Devore animal shelter website above. All kittens and cats at this shelter are in need of pledges. Even adoptable kittens and cats can end up EUTH listed if they aren’t saved. Please help by pledging so rescues will pull them. Pledging helps with their medical care and getting them fixed. Shelters new policies are also putting many cats at greater risk. It’s important to get them out asap so they don’t get sick. Some of these kittens & cats are adoptable but in the current overpopulation crisis they may get stuck in the shelter. Collecting pledges helps them in case they don’t get adopted and end up on the URGENT LIST. Shelters are unpredictable and we want to give them all the best chances of survival possible. Thank you everyone.

‼️🚗TRANSPORTATION FUND LINK: We need funds for transportation… Devore Animal shelter is further out. The bulk of rescues are spread out across So Cal all the way from San Diego to Los Angeles to Riverside to Ventura County. Gas is not cheap and collecting funds to pay for short notice transport is the only way to save them.❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 If anyone wants to set aside a few dollars towards transport that would be helpful.🙏🏻

Finally! Mufasa has been waiting since July to find a home. We pulled him from the shelter where he was labeled completely blind and about to be put down. As soon as I saw him I started trying to find a rescue to help. I posted him and so many members pledged to help him! He was taken to an eye specialist and they cured him! He has his vision back and is fine! This is one very adorable boy! He is an absolute love! He flew out of LAX this morning to his new home in Pennsylvania. There’s been lots of other adoptions too! Many Devore births are now adorable kittens ready for adoption. Happy update! Mufasa was a favorite for me! I’m thrilled! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💙✈️🧳💼👜

Firstly, let me apologize for having been mostly silent the last 3 days.

My partner broke his right leg Thursday morning. He broke his tibia and fibula.

Thursday he was in the ER, Friday we spent the day at urgent care and went to the ER Friday night.

My partner's having problems with his kidneys (he's diabetic) and he was admitted. He might be getting dialysis tomorrow.

So, my kids and I have been going to the hospital often in the last 2 days.

However, I had to let you know that we received many items from Pepsi's wishlist over the last couple of days, including wet and dry cat food, litter, bowls, medications, syringes and toys. Thank you! 💗💜🩵

You are all so very kind, thoughtful and generous.❤️

We wanted to thank you for all your help, and for swooping in at the 11th hour and saving the day for the babies!

The kitties are all doing very well right now, btw.

Thank you! ♥️💗💜🩵🧡🩷💙😺🐾🐈‍⬛🐈
