What Next?

Yet another large colony with orange cats! We will not be able to get to everyone before the end of our s/n slots for ferals. We have some surgeries scheduled for friendlies so you will still see additional numbers going up but we have to triage and juggle who gets done before the end of the year – we have another 70? kittens to get neutered in the next few weeks. Cat Guardians was kind enough to take in two huge males from us and they are settling in very well – some of the numbers that are very important but do not get added to the s/n totals – so many friendly adults out there this year!

09/27 – ADOPT – 6 friendlies, 2 females, 4 males. Some of these friendlies will be at the 10/6 adoption event!

10/03 – DCAS – 4 friendlies, 28 ferals, 12 females, 20 males. 10 from the newest large colony. Most of those will be relocated as they are not indicating they want a home. Cats from today came from a total of 17 different locations when you count the two sources of friendlies.

Total: 127 for September, 32 for October, 699 to date in 2024, 15,579 since our beginning.

Sully is from the park in Woodridge. He had a huge inflammatory response to his vaccination, with many symptoms, including so much pain when he lost his baby teeth! Pain medication, fluids, enticing foods, you name it! The food on his nose is a triumph as he almost cleaned up his plate on his own! Doing so much better now!

As you can see, every surface is filled. Kittens that just came in, awaiting movement to CiT, an adult that showed up and the caretaker has been petting him on his lap, one cat waiting for relocation, cats from 15 different locations, including 13 cats from the latest location, etc. The pictures may seem very similar, blog after blog but huge changes happen under those towels and on those tables!

 As Many as Possible As Soon As Possible

All Rescues are striving to get their cats adopted so there is a lot of competition. Please share our cats with friends and family and remember, these cats are locally sourced! We have more on hand than we can keep the list updated. Application here. Get pre-approved and then come visit our cats/kittens in person! Help us continue to make a difference in their lives!
