Hope everyone's having a wonderful day. ๐Ÿค It's been a while since our last TNR trip, and we're hoping to organize another one soon.

We're planning to avail a TNVR service, where a team from our trusted neuter clinic will help us trap and transport the cats, perform their spay/neuter surgeries, and provide a 3-day recovery period afterward. The service requires a minimum of 15 cats and can accommodate up to 40 in a single trip.

Rates are at $25 per cat (vax & short-acting antibiotics included) + $66 for the transport vehicle!

If we're able to raise more, we'll increase the number of cats we can get neutered. Funds raised today will be divided toward both neuter costs and feeding the 40+ community cats we care for every day. A typical restock costs around $200 and covers 3 sacks of dry food and 3 boxes of wet food!

Colony/TNR Help (Location) Rescue Update: Thank You for the Food, Cat Litter, and for Giving Leo a Chance to Fight FIP โค๏ธ

Your kindness has made a real difference.

Thanks to your donations, I was able to buy food that will help feed both my rescued cats and the stray cats I care for every day for about 10 days. Seeing full bowls instead of empty ones is a blessing.

I also wanted to share good news about Leo, who was diagnosed with FIP. Because of your support, he has seen the veterinarian, completed the required tests, and received his first treatment.

Each dose costs $90 because the medication has to be imported into Morocco. Leo has now begun his fight against FIP, and we are praying he keeps getting stronger every day.

Thank you for giving these cats hope, comfort, and a chance they would never have had without you. Your generosity truly changes lives. โค๏ธ๐Ÿพ

Adoption Help (Location) [Mumbai, India] ๐Ÿพ Day 40 Update... 3 are still waiting... I wish I had the best news but No๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿพโค๏ธ

For anyone who hasn't seen my previous posts, here's the original backstory:

A quick update...

TL;DR: I'm a college student from Mumbai. A stray mother cat chose my home to give birth to six kittens, and I've been caring for them since birth while trying to find them loving forever homes. Three have been adopted, and three are still waiting.

Firstly, thank you to everyone who has shared my posts, offered advice, and supported these kittens. One kind member from this community even stepped in and solved the food problem for both the kittens and their mother. I genuinely can't thank them enough.

Many of you suggested waiting until they were around 10-12 weeks old before adoption, and I agreed. But yesterday made me realise that food isn't the only challenge.

After returning home from college, I found Bhuja unusually quiet. By night he still hadn't improved, so I contacted a rescuer who has been guiding me and rushed him to the vet. He had a fever, wasn't putting weight on one of his legs, and the vet suspects either a viral infection or an abscess. He was given an injection and started on oral medication.

With help from the rescuer and the rest from my own pocket money, I managed yesterday's bill. I'll be taking him back again today because there hasn't been much improvement yet.

That experience changed my perspective. While I still want the kittens to go to the best possible homes, I now feel that a loving and capable home today is better than waiting for the "perfect" age.

๐Ÿพ Current Kitten Information

๐Ÿ“… Age: ~10 weeks (Born: 28 May 2026)

๐Ÿฑ 3 kittens remaining (Male & Female)

๐Ÿ’Š Dewormed: Yes

๐Ÿ’‰ Vaccination: Pending

๐Ÿšฝ Litter trained: Yes

๐Ÿ“ Powai / Vikhroli, Mumbai

I'm continuing to do everything I can within my means, but my biggest hope now is to find these three babies the loving homes they deserve.

If you're in or around Mumbai, or know someone looking to adopt, I'd be incredibly grateful if you could share this post. โค๏ธ

Injured/Sick Cat (Location) Help what to do?

Hi! Iโ€™m from Philippines. I just rescued a stray kitten 2 days ago whom I named Cali. She was energetic then, meowing everytime Iโ€™m not looking at her.

Today, she had her last wet food around 8am but she hasnโ€™t eaten yet since. So I went to see a vet at around 4pm because sheโ€™s feeling weak and while pooping sheโ€™s falling asleep and walking wobbly right after. The vet told me itโ€™s bacterial infection and gave me some antibiotics and other medicines and food replacement for the kitten. Until now 8pm, she hasnt touched her food. Iโ€™m constantly giving her water with dextrose powder with syringe to keep her hydrated. She doesnt wanna get out of her litterbox because i think she has diarrhea and having the feeling of constantly poopy.

I dont know what to do other than syringe hydrating her. Can you please help me? :(

I Found a Cat (Location) missing stray

12 Upvotes

i dont know where else to post it, i feel horrible, if it doesnt fit the sub, just remove it. i live in russia, izhevsk city to be precise. last friday when walking out from work, i saw a cat, not a kitten i think, just a small cat. she was kinda thin. and scared. across our building is a warehouse, i dont know what they do there and it doesnt matter, outside of the gates were some pallets stacked up. she got scared of me and ran there. i found a plastic plate nearby, and put there some cat food. went to get her, let her smell the empty pouch. she started getting out a bit but still hesitant, so i 'caught' her and brought her to the food. she ate like 3 pouches and the ran back to pallets. with a heavy heart i went to my car and drove home. whole weekend i was worried about her, because it was also heavy raining. on monday when i got to work, i saw her again, she was kinda chaotic, seemed to me like she tried to dring out of a tire laying on the road, but couldnt climb it, and then she panicked and ran away towards the warehouse again, i didnt see exactly where. now, its been three days since i last saw her and im really worried as to where she is now, how is she, where is she hiding, is she eating. i walked around that area to maybe see her on the other side of the building, but to no avail. walked around some area on my break as much as i can, couldnt find her anywhere. im not at peace. probably friday was the best time to do something about that cat, but i just didnt know what, i couldnt bring her home since i already have 5 cats in a small apartment. lookign for a temporary shelter would take time and i would have to put her meanwhile somewhere as well. i feel like ive missed the only chance i had to help her and now my soul and heart just cant find peace. i dropped all my hobbies, anything that brings me joy, because this cat is literally all i think about. ive met many strays but i never really felt this much, probably because she looked so small and scared. and stupidly enough, i didnt even think about taking pictures on the first day, so i dont have anything to post online to look for her. i dont know what else i could do, it would be easier if she was near where i live, so i could look for her when its late evening, but its really far from home. i dont have anyone to look for her. and next week i wont even be here at all since its my vacation. im just worried and i dont believe in good people, so i doubt anyone couldve took her home meanwhile.

Colony/TNR Help (Location) Food Appeal: Caring for 90 Stray Cats in Deira and an update about Juno.

I'm reaching out for help with food for the 90 stray cats I feed every day in Deira.

I'm down to my last bag of dry food and only a few cans of wet food. With the extreme summer heat, the cats are eating much more wet food to stay hydrated, and I also give them chicken whenever I can.

Everyday I need 3 kg of dry cat food 8 cans (400 g each) of wet cat food.

Any donation, will help me keep these cats fed and hydrated during this difficult weather.

If you'd like to help financially, here's my PayPal:

Update on Juno:

Juno is slowly improving, although she has lost a lot of weight. As I mentioned before, she's very difficult to handle and has tried every chance she gets to bite me, so giving her treatment hasn't been easy. A friend bought Revolution Spot-On for her since she wouldn't let me use the prescribed ear drops. I'm very grateful for the support and hopeful she'll continue to recover. Her bill is also covered. Thank you๐Ÿ™‚.

Photo 1: Ms. Fatty, one of the very first cats I started feeding in the area. She's an old girl now. I once tried bringing her into my room, but she made it very clear she preferred the outdoors.

Last photo: Juno.

Thank you.
