r/Straycats

Hello everyone,

I deeply apologize for asking for help so often lately. This season, we are experiencing a severe wave of Feline Coronavirus (FIP/FPV) here in Morocco. Because of this, so many of my cats are falling severely sick with different illnesses all at the same time—both the ones I posted about before and others I haven't published yet. This has put immense pressure and heavy veterinary bills on me.

I am an independent rescuer in Morocco. I recently found a pregnant stray cat I used to feed bleeding heavily. She gave birth to some stillborn kittens on the street, and the rest unfortunately died inside her womb. It was a life-threatening emergency, so I rushed her to the clinic for an immediate c-section surgery to save her life.

Please note that this attached invoice is for the c-section surgery cost only, which is 1,200 MAD (around $130 USD). There are other additional expenses for her clinic admission, check-up, and X-rays.

I am completely unable to cover these costs on my own alongside my other ongoing critical cases. Please consider helping me clear this bill. Every single dollar makes a huge difference! 🙏❤️

If you would like to support her medical care, please use my links:

Thank you so much for your continuous love and support. God bless you.

All Jagger wanted was somewhere to hide from the rain

She sat in an autorickshaw, probably thinking she'd found a little shelter from the world. Instead, she was poisoned, abused, and beaten until her leg broke.

Read that again.

A little cat who couldn't even understand why she was all soaked up with water and cold, suddenly had to face the cruelty of world..

I keep thinking about how scared she must have been. How much pain she must have been in. And how, despite everything that was done to her, she still deserves to be loved..

I found her just in time. But I can't protect her forever on my own.

Jagger needs a home. Not just somewhere to sleep, but a HOME.

Somewhere she can curl up without being scared. Somewhere she can sleep peacefully, knowing nobody is going to hurt her. Somewhere she can finally be someone's baby.

I don't want her life to be one long story of the horrible things humans have done to her. I want her story to have a happy ending, too.

I want someone to look at her and see a little soul who deserves the world. Someone who will love her on the days she's cuddly and the days she's scared. Someone who will never make her feel like she has to fight for her life again.

If you have space for 1 tiny life please, please let it be Jagger 🥺❤️

She's been through enough for one tiny life. She deserves to know what it feels like to be loved, truly and unconditionally.

I can't promise you that adopting a rescue will always be easy. But I can promise you that Jagger deserves the chance to find out what love feels like. And God, I hope someone gives her that chance.

Jagger is looking for her forever home. If you can adopt her, or know someone who might be able to, please DM me. Or email at - oppsididitagainheheh@gmail.com

And if you can't adopt, please share her story. Her person might be one share away.

Let's make sure the next chapter of her life is a beautiful one. No more cruelty. No more fear. Just love 🐾 📍 Mumbai (but open travel anywhere in world ESPECIALLY USA) 🏡 Looking for a safe, loving, permanent home.

Please don't let her story end on the streets again.

💔 ISHU IS STILL FIGHTING, BUT WE HAVE SOME UPDATES ON OUR BABIES! 😭❤️‍🩹
Our little Ishu tested negative for FPV, thankfully, but she is suffering from anemia and a bacterial infection. She still needs medical treatment, and we urgently need your support to help her recover. 🙏💗
❤️‍🩹 MIRACLE’S UPDATE: Her surgery has been completed, and she is doing really well! We’re so relieved to see our brave girl recovering after everything she has been through. Please keep her in your prayers. 🥹❤️
🐾 TUFFY’S UPDATE: Tuffy’s rod removal surgery has been postponed for another week following her X-rays. We’re hoping everything goes smoothly and that she continues to improve. 🙏💕
we’re doing everything we can for our babies, but with so many sick and special-needs cats depending on us, covering every medical expense has become a struggle.
🙏 PLEASE SUPPORT ISHU’S TREATMENT AND KEEP ALL THREE BABIES IN YOUR PRAYERS.

Hope everyone's Sunday is going great 🫶

We're small-time cat feeders who've been caring for multiple colonies in our community over the last few years. Most of the cats in our neighborhood that we look after and feed are featured in this post, and we're so happy to see them all thriving thanks to the continued support we've received from this community, whether it's for food, medical care, or TNR.

Last week, we got a total of 6 cats TNR'd, and we've recently met a new intact calico on our street (6th photo) who we're hoping to get spayed very soon. We also have a few lower-priority intact males on our list, and we're targeting to include them on our next neuter trip.

We’re currently out of food and flea meds, and urgently need assistance to replenish our supplies. It’s always a bit of a juggling act trying to keep up with everyone’s needs and make sure that none of them go without, but we’re doing our best to work through everything as our capacity allows.

- $45 would cover the cost of 1 neuter
- $44 would cover a sack of dry food
- $22 would cover a day’s worth of wet food (16 cans)
- $56 would cover mange/flea treatment for 5 cats.

Any amount would help us keep up with the cats’ needs! If you'd like to support our efforts, our donation channels are below.

Hello wonderful friends …

I am not great at channeling emotional pain, the hardest thing for me to overcome, not becoming consumed by sadness and heartache.

So when Miss Amelia (23) began showing a sharp decline in function, i knew she needed me to let her go.
It is never easy, but we have to rely on mercy and grace to help get through it.
I spent the last few days …showering her with special treats, outside adventures, and loads of love. I must have told her 100 times …. she was the greatest cat of all times.
I had been mentally preparing for our final trip, cried for days leading up to.
I had no other commitment or Appointments - so I could stay focused on her.
But ….. then I saw him …..
Finn was nearly unrecognizable-
ABSOLUTELY TRAGIC: defeated and broken …. I had no idea what happened to him, but whatever it was, this cat had given up on living.
Fin had been around the community for several months & he was still on my trap list.
But, I thought he had found his happy ever after ……He had a family and a home - or so I thought.
It took about 30 hours to catch him-
I thought he was surrendering to me - but I soon knew - even though he looked to be hanging on by a thread, he still perceived me as the greatest danger.
I couldn’t get him to go in a trap, so I tried handler gloves and carrier, even drop trap….
He NEEDED help so DESPERATELY-
Yet, i couldn’t help him if I couldn’t catch him. I tried swapping the methods hoping eventually to outlast his resolve. When I saw him go into one of the heated houses - I realized this might be my greatest opportunity-
I snuck around the backside of my house and used 2 pieces of cardboard to cover both exits - caught him by bear hugging the house. I brought the house inside with him in it.
When I finally lifted him out of the house— WORDS cannot express- I
had never seen so much trauma.
It was nearly 3am - the clinic opens at 10am - I didn’t know if he could survive the next hour, let alone hang on another 7 hours.
Morning arrived and he was still hanging on. We arrived at the clinic -and
Carrying my sweet senior girl Amelia in first, fighting the tears was useless.
An hour later, I told her how much I love her … over and over until she was gone
I tried to regain as much composure as I could, and the Vet assessment of Finn was heartbreaking
FIRST thing He is a GIRL -
I assumed he was a boy because most yellow cats are-
The rest of the assessment, detailed just what this cat has endured-
*** Severely Emancipated- She is between 1- 2 years old -her weight is 2.3 pounds (should be7- 9 pounds )
***Anemic I have never seen any cat so severely infested with fleas
***Severe Upper respiratory infection
***Loaded with intestinal parasites-
***, Ear mites
*** Covered in her own waste -
*** diarrhea- unable to form solid waste from the parasites and trauma
***To relieve herself - her waste burns like fire - scalding her skin - both her rear and one of her back legs
Inflamed and raw
Each of these things are painful alone -
the PAIN she has been for to endure -
She is 2. 3 pounds …

I really need help getting the food items -

This little girl has suffered beyond anything I could’ve ever imagined.
The recommended brands are EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE

$185 spent was not planned -
(vet invoice in photos) and I’ve got 6 TNR appointments next week with zero sponsors so far
Can you sponsor one -this is a lifesaving gift

💔 Remember Newton, the tiny kitten who fell from the third floor? We named him Newton because of gravity. 🥺❤️‍🩹 Thankfully, he survived, and his little bones had no fractures. 🙏
But sadly, Newton is now fighting another battle. He has been diagnosed with dry FIP and anemia and has started FIP treatment. 💔
This little boy has already been through so much, and he deserves a chance to live a healthy, happy life. 😭❤️
🙏 Please support Newton’s treatment. Every donation, no matter how small, can help us continue his fight. Please don’t forget our little Newton.

Hi everyone! ❤️ I hope you’re all doing well. I’m making this post in hopes of finding a loving home for a sweet kitten who really needs someone to give him a chance. 🐱💗

He’s approximately 4 or 5 months old, and another community cat feeder and I have been feeding him and the other community cats every day.

He used to have a sibling, but sadly, his sibling was hit by a motorcycle. He’s the only one left, and I can’t help but worry about him.

Over time, he’s grown comfortable with us because we’ve consistently been there to feed him. I usually spend about 5 to 10 minutes petting him before I leave, and he absolutely loves the attention. He’s incredibly affectionate and always wants to be petted.

Something that

really breaks my heart is how he acts whenever I spend time with him. He constantly meows and cries, even while I’m petting him. Sometimes, he follows me when I leave, but eventually returns to his usual spot, where he continues crying and meowing. He often seems sad, and I can't help but wonder if he struggles with being alone. I believe he may be experiencing anxiety or loneliness, although I can't know for certain. He seems to crave companionship and affection, and it hurts knowing that I can only spend a few minutes with him before I have to leave.

I can't help but feel that he deserves more than the life he's living right now. I wish I could stay with him longer and give him all the attention he wants, but I simply can't be there for him 24/7. I genuinely hope he can find a home where he won't have to spend his days alone outside and can receive the love, attention, and care he deserves. ❤️

What worries me most is his safety and well-being. The other lady who feeds the cats told me that he hasn't been eating for the past two days. She has also seen him nearly get hit by a vehicle while wandering across the street. I'm genuinely worried that something might happen to him if he continues living outside.

Unfortunately, I can't take him in myself. I already have four cats of my own, and I help feed approximately 17 other community cats. As much as I wish I could give him the home he deserves, I simply don't have the capacity to do so.

I'm hoping someone out there might be willing to open their heart and home to this sweet boy. 🥺💕 He deserves a safe place to sleep, regular meals, proper veterinary care, and, most importantly, someone who will give him the love and companionship he seems to be searching for.

He's still so young and has his whole life ahead of him. I would love for him to have the opportunity to grow up in a safe environment where he can feel cared for and loved.

If you or someone you know is interested in adopting him, please reach out to me. Even if you can't adopt him yourself, sharing this post with your friends, family, or anyone who might be able to help would mean so much.

Please help me find this little guy a home where he will be safe . Every share, comment, and bit of help makes a difference. 🙏❤️

Let's give this sweet boy a chance at a better life. He deserves to be safe, loved, and cared for. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and share his story.

I have read the resources and left a message with our local spca. I am in Washington DC, USA. There is a cat that has been on the block all day and has been trying to get into my house multiple times this evening. It tried to slip past guests earlier and came to the back yard to look for another way in.. It has stayed on my stoop for the past hour. I am allergic to cats as are others in the household, but we are worried about it. Here are a couple pictures. It has no collar, its ear is not clipped to indicate spayed/neutered, and it appears to have a couple recent appearing bald spots between its ears and eyes, maybe from excess rubbing. It was playing with kids earlier and seems friendly. Does it look ok? Does anyone have any thoughts or guidance? Thank you.

Anyone live in Immoshima or Mukaishima Japan, I saw yesterday a poor suffering orange kitten who is stuck in the side gutter of the road. I saw him while riding the Shimanami Kaido. He is right next to the entrance of Tachibanarinkai Koen Ko Park. The kitten has an injured leg and limps away at the sound of people

so i found this cat hanging around my local town.. super thin, hungry, dirty, covered in ticks.. super affectionate but clearly a stray.. we bonded almost immediately.. i already have two cats and don't really have a big enough space for 3.. i asked a woman at work if she was interested and she very much was.. older woman, has the means and space for vet visits and whatever else.. i get the cat & give him/her to the woman last night.. this morning i reach out to see how it went and remind her if she needs anything or it doesn't work out to just let me know.. to my dismay, she let the cat loose in the house (not separated in its own room) and while going in/out with the dogs the cat bolted out the door.. mind you this is over 12 hours ago now and over an hour from where its "home" is.. i'm so sad and disappointed in this whole process.. i didn't do my do-diligence to make sure she was completely knowledgeable and now this sweet tiny soul is even more alone than before.. im driving to the coworkers area to see if i can maybe take a shot in the dark and find him/her.. please send good energy that this little one ends up in a good place.. 💟🙏🏻

My boyfriend has this loud, friendly cat come by his house every few days (we are in Oregon). The cat has no collar and no clipped ear. His coat is super thin, not matted but he when he visits it’s dirty. He also has some bald patches. We love him but don’t want to take him to the vet if he belongs to someone. Stray cat experts advise, does this guy seem like a stray?

❤️ Harvey Is Fighting Again
Harvey is suffering from a **very high fever of 106.3°F**. This is extremely high for a cat and can put his body and organs at risk.
Harvey was rescued a few months ago and previously fought FIP. Sadly, he is now facing what we believe is **FIP reinfection**, and the fever has returned with a vengeance.
We have started his treatment immediately and are doing everything we can to bring his temperature down safely while closely monitoring him.
He has fought so hard before, and now he needs to fight again. 💔
**Please pray for Harvey and help us continue his treatment. Every donation, no matter how small, can help.**

Hi! I was wondering if anyone here in LA California specifically in the San Fernando valley..knows a shelter that would take in a stray kitten i found :(. I want to take it to no kill shelter but I can’t seem to find one? The kitten i found seems to have a problem with its eye and unfortunately for me im unable to keep it or financially provide for its medical needs. :/ if anyone could please help me / let me know! I was trying to call some shelters but some said that they’re at capacity..also i’m not sure but could someone let me know if I’d still have to bottle feed it til i’m able to find somewhere that could take her in?

This is Jeremy. He showed up at one of our feeding areas quite randomly, and he took his sweet time trusting us enough to enter our crate. Today, he finally did, and so we brought him straight to the vet.

NSFW photos of his injury

One of the shopkeepers where we feed this colony had first seen Jeremy with his leg constricted with what seemed like nylon strings. We don't know exactly what happened, but he's clearly been dealing with it for some time.

We're just glad we were finally able to get him somewhere safe. His leg has unfortunately been too badly damaged, and the vet has recommended a full limb amputation. He's scheduled for surgery early next week, and we're hoping we can get him through this and give him a more comfortable start.

His estimated costs are over $385:

• Amputation & neuter - $180
• Pre-op screening & anesthesia - $84
• 3-day hospitalization & recovery - $120

We're small-time community cat feeders, and this is a pretty big expense for us on top of the cats we already have in our care. Any amount would help us get Jeremy through his surgery and would be so appreciated!

Choux Gras is a stray cat I’ve been looking after for over a year. On October 19th, we’re going to the vet together, and I’m bringing him home.
