Blaze update and the rest of the crew 🧡🤍🖤😻 (TN)

I cannot thank y’all enough for the support for Blaze. Yes, he is FIV positive, and yes, he’s prone to dental disease and doesn’t have many teeth left. But lately he has been an absolute firecracker. Yesterday he even came up onto my porch and meowed at me! The second I opened the door he dashed off, but honestly, that’s huge progress for him.

He’s been playing more, eating really well, and absolutely gobbling up wet food. The rest of the crew is thriving too. We recently added a window fan to the garage shed setup that someone got from my wishlist, and it’s been keeping the temps around 75°, which has made a big difference for everyone’s comfort. Blaze was caught asleep in there today for 3 hours.

I’m hoping to eventually purchase a catio and connec to the shed so Blaze can stay closer, safer, and still enjoy the outdoors. If we can get enough funds into the Amazon account, the next goals are a cat door and materials for the catio setup.(all on Amazon and giftcard is attached with $5 being the lowest can donate to it)

Right now we’re starting to run low on wet food — and as anyone with a colony knows, you can’t feed one of the 13 without the others showing up immediately. Anything is appreciated. Blaze especially loves when I put a little Churu on top of his meals.

We’ve had a really good week overall with lots of playtime and happy cats. I’m also hoping to get Ziggy and Kai in for their vaccines tomorrow.

Here are some recent pictures/videos from the past week. Thank you again for caring about these cats as much as we do. 🐾

Help to rescue cat🙏

FOUND FRIENDLY CAT

I recently found a friendly cat outside my home area and am currently coordinating a foster placement for her. Before she can safely go into foster care, she urgently needs a veterinary exam and testing for contagious diseases such as FeLV/FIV, along with a general health check.

I also want to be transparent about the situation: after someone told me they were going to drop off food/donations, this cat unexpectedly appeared shortly after. Donations were never drop off

I have reached out to multiple rescues and shelters, but they are currently overwhelmed and not taking in additional cats. Because of this, I am working to ensure she gets the required vet exam and testing first so she can safely move into foster care.

She has not been taken in, but I am actively coordinating her veterinary care and then a safe foster placement.

She is very friendly and I will make sure she is scanned for a microchip at the vet.

Funds will go toward:• Vet exam• FeLV/FIV testing• Vaccines• Flea/deworming treatment• Any urgent medical care

If anyone would like to help support her vet care, donations can be made through my GoFundMe or my other link in the comments or bio page. Thank you ❤️

Tiny abandoned kittens fighting to survive 🥺💔

I found these kittens yesterday abandoned in a far area in very poor condition. They are different ages, and some are still too young to eat solid food.

They are suffering from different illnesses, severe weakness, bloated bellies, infections, and malnutrition. One of the smallest kittens suddenly became extremely weak today, and I’m very worried about her.

I already care for more than 50 rescued cats, including sick and disabled cats, but I could not leave these babies outside to die.

Right now they urgently need milk, food, medication, and basic daily care.

Any support, advice, or even sharing this post could truly help them survive. Thank you so much for caring about these little sou

SOS! Please help, found the cat that I'm feeding outside our home laying on the ground. I don't have any spare money since I just brought my cat to the vet last weekend

Please help, on the first photo the cat that I'm feeding is so dehydrated, I saw him when I went outside after not seeing him for a week. I will bring him to the vet but I don't have any extra right now for blood works and confinement, on the 2nd photo, the kitten needs a follow-up check up tomorrow cause his eyes still inflamed including my other cat suspected with FIP & pancreatitis and our dog who has blood parasites. My cat who has FIP as well has 1 vial left. I really don't know what to do.

Help for little Leo 🐾🙏

Hi everyone 👋
I’m Luna & Nala Rescue Inc. A solo rescue in South Florida.

Little Leo is being taken to the vet today 🐾
He was rescued from a dumpster all alone🙁

He has been having diarrhea and has vomited a few times, so I want to make sure he gets checked and receives the care he needs as soon as possible. Kittens can get sick very quickly, so I don’t want to take any chances with his health.

Rescuing and caring for kittens comes with ongoing medical expenses, and vet visits add up fast. I am asking for donations to help cover Leo’s vet care and treatment so he can continue recovering safely.

I will update about his vet visit👨‍⚕️

If you’d like to help Leo, please donate through the GoFundMe link or my other link in the comments. Every bit of support truly helps and is appreciated. 🙏🐱

Help to rescue kittens 🙏

I am urgently trying to rescue three kittens who are currently living in an abandoned building that is scheduled for construction soon. This location is not safe for kittens, and they are in danger, especially with the extreme heat right now.

I have seen the mom in the area in the past, and this video shows her, but she is no longer with them. I have already had her spayed.

I need to get the kittens out as soon as possible before something happens to them.

I am coordinating this rescue and making sure they receive the care they need immediately after being removed from the site.

Once rescued, the kittens will need veterinary care, including a full health check, vaccinations, and basic treatment before they can be placed into a safe foster home.

I am asking donations toward their medical care, supplies, and transport so I can get them safely out and into proper care as quickly as possible. Even small contributions make a big difference in giving them a chance to survive and thrive.

I’m a solo rescue and I depend on funds to help cats. I have 4k in debt helping cats and I need support 😓

To support, you can donate through my GoFundMe or my other link in the comments or my bio page 🙏

Thank you🙏

Independent rescuer in need of food and litter.

Hello fellow cat lovers! I am a independent cat rescuer from Texas. Due to many veterinary bills I could really use some help with dry food, wet food, Churu's for giving meds & litter.

I brought in 2 ferals named Daisy & Gummy Bear in August of 2025 and they have been having ongoing treatment since then. Gummy Bear has entropion, is partially blind, & has had 3 eye surgeries with one more to go. Daisy has stomatitis & Calicivirus. She was in so much pain & unable to eat, severely underweight, anemic and in need of a blood transfusion but I was able to get her weight up & she has been taking a combination of 3 meds with monthly checkups & bloodwork. The meds have helped her ulcers go away so far. If they come back we will proceed with a FME.

I have TNR'D 46 cats so far. The most recent are the 2 girls in the crate in the photos above. They were spayed, microchipped, vaccinated & will be dewormed & receive a flea med before being released. The Calico was wheezing a bit so she also received a Convenia shot. I will be working on catching more for TNR once they are released. ( I have about 8 more to go)

I've also brought several cats indoors due to medical issues & special diets. If anyone is able to help out with even a small bag of food or litter it would help out tremendously & I would greatly appreciate it! These vet bills have been quite expensive. Your help with food & litter will help me to continue TNR'ing & getting them veterinary attention! Thank you so much! 🐾 🐈

♡Kittens to help, Colonies to feed, and doing all we can because the Floofaloofs are WORTH the lack of sleep♡ Rockdale, Illinois

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2CRVDJR16Y2GU?ref\_=wl\_share - updated wishlist (canned food and kitten items would be a BIG help!)

https://www.reddit.com/r/rescuecats/s/knQFn6mxkr - Prior post

I will keep it short and to the point this time.  I am caring for a momma and two babies. 

My coworker's wife has found kittens and I have helped her with supplies (and we got the kittens in the picture to the vet and Kim will update me!)  We have gotten 15 cats by her TNRed this year, but it seems like we will have a few more!

Another one of my coworker has been feeding the strays but her house, so I have helped her with dry and wetcfood.  She said she has seen a couple kittens across the street and will keep me updated.

Canned food would be a huge huge help, along with anything for the kittens.  Dry food helps too, but canned food is the biggest need♡.  Kitten season is here, and we are doing all we can to make sure we are doing what we can to help,  and mitigate it by TNRing the cats around.

We do this on our own, and you all helping with the wishlist makes a HUGE difference and leaves money for TNR, Vet Appts, worm meds, flea meds, and things we need for the colonies.  Every single thing is for the cats.  We all work as many extra hours as we can, because this matters so much to us.   The time, the dedication, scrimping ans saving every dime we can to make sure they are taken care of. NTheu deserve to be loved, cherished, and have a safe place, even if they are too feral for inside.  We put our heart and soul into this.  All our extra time is dedicated to the floofaloofs.   Inside and outside of here I call House of Floofaloof, as we have catified it all.  I now have 18 inside, along with the feral momma and 2 babies.  This is our passion, where our hearts belong.

We will never stop, and our eternally grateful that you have followed and supported us and the floofaloofs along the way.

Thank you for being the good in the world♡♡♡

• Pee pads
• Blankets & towels
• Toys and comfort items

Stray mommacat and kittens update and request:

Hiii. We made it through the first month of life! It’s been a difficult journey so far, but I think we are finally in the clear, and everyone is doing ok.

Mommacat is named Cricket, and she’s tiny…she’s only about 6 lbs. and her eyes look a little goopy. I get nervous for her but I’m trying my best to keep her healthy and keep her nutrients up. A couple of the babies have crusty eyes, but I can’t afford to take them all to the vet just yet. I know kitten eyes are sensitive, so I’m watching them very carefully. I think they just have some eye discharge from being in the cat litter (it’s kitten safe, but there’s still dust).

The kittens are just about ready to wean, and mommacats patience is wearing thin lol. You can tell in some of the photos how annoyed she is. They are getting very active and are ready to play, but I can’t let them out yet because I don’t have a good way to keep them safely contained. I also don’t have any good toys or climbing towers for them, they’re currently loving the simplest of things, like cardboard boxes and baskets for climbing. I would love to provide them more.

I haven’t updated my ko-fi page or my Instagram lately, but I will do so shortly. The supply donations via my Amazon wishlist in the past have really been beyond helpful, so I’m going to post a link again and if anyone feels like donating some essentials to the kittens, I hope you can feel my gratitude! I’m not the best at expressing myself in writing, but your help really means the world to me. It’s thanks to the community of caregivers here that I’m able to care for these cats and kittens, so thank you…so much!

There’s also a pool fund on PayPal that will be used to pay for mommakitty Cricket and all 4 of her little dust bunnies to get the veterinary care they need…which is full vaccines, spay/neuter, and rabies vaccines. As much as I love having these little kittens around, I cannot keep them all…and I’m not going to adopt them out until they’ve been sterilized and vaccinated. The link to contribute can be found on my page, if you’re interested. If not, don’t worry!

I’m taking suggestions for names for the 3 kittens. The fluffy one is already named Berlioz (or Bear, for short), or at least that’s his name while he’s here at my house lol.
Still needing names are:

  1. Grey tabby with white (male)

  2. Grey tabby with short hair (male)

  3. Grey/orange dilute tabby/torbie (female)

If you want to suggest some names!

I’ll post the wishlist link in a comment, thanks for your time…I hope you are all doing well!

Being asked to leave my TNR colony for 10 days — feeling stuck😞

I manage a TNR colony of 6 cats — 5 strays and 1 fully feral. I know each of them individually, their personalities, their patterns, their trust levels. The fully feral one took a long time to even get comfortable with my presence and routine.

I'm being pressured to leave for about 10 days for a family obligation and I genuinely don't know what to do. I have no one I trust to cover the colony properly. These aren't cats you can just hand off to anyone — especially the feral one. Disrupting the routine could set back months of trust-building.

Has anyone dealt with having to leave their colony for an extended period? How did you handle it? Did you find someone qualified to cover, and if so how? I'm also just venting a little because I feel like people in my life don't understand that this isn't optional care — these cats count on me showing up. Ik some people don't understand, but they mean as much to me as people's fur babies do♥️♥️🐾🐾 (BTW I don't have any money currently, or I wouldn't be on here asking for food& supplies. )

Blaze update 🧡🧡

This sweet colony boy has come such a long way over the last year. He isn’t feral, but he’s still completely hands-off and I do have to be cautious handling him. He bit me once a long time ago, so when he comes home he’ll be recovering safely inside our bathroom in a kennel while he heals.

This list is some comfort food and things he might like while he recovers. He isn't fully funded yet, he needs a little unde $300 but hopefully he will get help on my paypal or calls to the vet.

Anything is appreciated and helps this colony boy finally. 🥺🧡

Thank you all for caring about these cats as much as we do. I’ll update everyone once the vet has evaluated him. 🐈🧡

A mom and 2 babies, a kitten fitting in, and an ever growing colony...The Floofaloofs are officially on the Loose and cat food would be very appreciated ♡Will County, Illinois♡

​

Amazon Wishlist that has mostly food -

https://www.reddit.com/u/FloofingWithFloofers/s/d9l1Ujp75O - post on my page about kittens

I am posting these previous posts because they have the text messages between Kim and I about this too.

It's my *Cake Day* on Reddit, and *canned food* or *dry food* is a huge help! They *love friskies and fancy feast extra gravy*, and any kind of dry food, although Kim has asked me to put *fancy feast dry food* on the list for the colony by her. *Gift cards* are also a huge, HUGE help! They have been digging up the roads here to put in piping, as they are redoing the water system. I am in Rockdale, Illinois if you would like to look it up, but also am posting a screenshot with info about it too. We have had an influx of strays due to this, as my block is one of the few not dug up, and I am next to meadow where a majority of it is. I have been almost using double the food I was before. For the kitties, I'll do anything to make sure they are fed and safe.

I have taken in a feral momma and her two kittens. We have been going back and forth with bottle feeding and momma feeding them, I think the environment she was at before was way too stressful, where here she has her own room, a safe place. Hopefully these teeny tinies make it...we are doing all we can♡ The couple I rescued them from also have a group of 5 week old kittens they said they'd foster with their mom, so I have helped them out with canned and dry food for it. Mom will be fixed as soon as they are weaned and kittens when they are old enough. I plan on putting aside the cash for it and will be working the extra hours. You helping me with my amazon wishlist makes this possible♡

Whispering Willow in the Wind (one of 18 floofers that lives here permanently now) is FLOURISHING! The transition was seamless, they took to her just as if they are one of their own. It is amazing how loving these floofaloofs are♡ She is fully eating kitten food on her own and have been mixing kmr milk for her to drink. I am so grateful to everyone who has helped with kmr and just have helped in general♡

We do this on our own. I work the extra hours I can to put it all towards the floofaloofs. Flea treatments, worm treatments, litter, vaccines, vet appts, supplies, things to floofify the house for them. I wouldn't change a thing.

Thank you all for your love, your support, and your encouragement. You really impact more lives than you know♡

♡*We do it for the floofaloofs*♡

Independent Rescuer: Help Potpot build his strength for a critical dental extraction (Meds and labs breakdown attached)

Hi everyone,

I wanted to give a much-needed update on my sweet boy, Potpot, and ask for a little help getting him through his next medical hurdle.

We recently visited Manila Feline Center for his routine check-up and bloodwork to see if he was ready for a much-needed dental extraction. Unfortunately, the news wasn’t what we hoped for.

Potpot’s latest lab results came back showing that he is severely anemic and his BUN (kidney values) is elevated. Because of this, it is currently too dangerous for him to undergo anesthesia for his dental surgery.

The vet has put him on a strict 30-day intensive treatment plan to build his strength back up:

Livotine (Liver tonic & kidney enhancer) – 1ml twice daily

Emerplex (Vitamin B complex + Amino acids) – 0.3ml twice daily

Thromb Beat (Platelet enhancer) – 0.7ml once daily

Subcutaneous fluid therapy and a strict target of 200ml water intake per day.

Specialized Diet: Recovery food (Royal Canin) to help improve his nutrition and food intake.

GS Treatment: 53 out 84 days for his FIP

We have a follow-up CBC and basic blood chemistry scheduled for May 30, 2026. If his anemia and kidney levels show improvement, we can finally move forward with his dental extraction to get him out of pain.

As an independent rescuer, managing these consecutive medical costs gets incredibly heavy. I’ve attached the receipts and lab results from our visit on May 16 for full transparency.

Recent Clinic Visit: ₱2,000 (Professional Fee + CBC & Blood Chemistry)

Upcoming Costs: The cost of his daily supplements, ongoing subcutaneous fluids, high-calorie recovery food, and the upcoming re-check labs on May 30, followed by the actual surgery.

If you have a spare dollar or peso to help cover Potpot’s recovery meals, medication, and upcoming vet visits, it would mean the world to us. No amount is too small.

Even if you can’t donate, please keep Potpot in your thoughts, and please consider sharing his story. He is such a resilient boy, and I'm doing everything I can to get him pain-free and healthy.

Thank you so much for always being such a supportive community. I will keep you all updated when his next blood results come in on May 30!

Trapping my stray/feral kitten

I'm new to this. Long story short. I lost my 4 month old kitten because she was "set free" by someone else who lives in the house of mine. I told the original people who gave me the cat in the first place, and one of them was able to order me a trap which will arrive in a week or less. Is there anything useful to know? Or any tips? Also what do I do with the other cats I may catch accidentally? I know there's another group of cats around here that are strays and ferals as well……do I just let them go? Also how do I get my other indoor-outdoor cats to avoid the bait I set inside?

Need food/supplies for 6 colony cats.

I'm Ashley, and I TNR a colony in WA state. I've got 6 colony cats I'm actively caring for. I've already successfully TNR'd two of them, including Barracuda who I recently spayed. (Just did a update with another sub, you can check my page for proof).

Here's where I'm stuck: I'm out of cat food by Monday, however I'm broke, & these cats depend on me to keep them fed.

Can anyone help me with items from my Amazon wishlist? Thank you so much: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1G15G0X3NR1R?ref\\\_=list\\\_d\\\_wl\\\_ys\\\_list\\\_1
