Birth Announcement: Maddie and Her Boys



Maddie gave birth to four little boys Mother's day (May 12th) and is a great mom! She's doing a wonderful job as a new mom; keeping her kittens fed, clean and quiet. 

They'll all be available for adoption later in the summer. Be sure to check back for updates! 








Special Fundraiser Today!


Our special fundraiser is today at O'Duffy's from 5:30-8:00! We hope you can come out to support our rescue and have a great time. Our foster dogs, Reggie and Appa are already signed up to appear, so come out and meet them! 

Thanks again to the Social Charity Circle of Kalamazoo for helping organize the event! See you there!

Dot and Fleck

Dot is a petite kitty and has been through a lot in her few months--she's not even a year old yet--early pregnancy, illness and the death of three of her four kittens. She has a lot to say with her eyes, almost as if she can see deep into your soul. Dot is a gentle, caring and quiet kitty; she doesn't meow. If you'd like to fill out an adoption application for her, please visit our website.



Fleck is Dot's surviving kitten. Isn't she just the cutest heather grey little girl!? She's happy-go-lucky and loves to play--with other furry friends or just by entertaining herself--and will probably be a petite little kitty just like her momma. Once she's all worn out, she loves to snuggle and curl up in a ball on your lap and purr like a little motorboat. Fleck will be ready to go to her new home around the second week of June. If you'd like to fill out an adoption application for her, please visit our website.

Rainbow Bridge Poem



We have lost too many kittens to illnesses this year and it's incredibly painful, especially to their fosters who open their hearts and homes to them. This is for the ones we've lost. 

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
 
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
 
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
 
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

We currently have four kittens will FLV (Feline Leukemia Virus) and they all need a special food, Hill's Prescription Diet a/d Canine/Feline Critical Care canned food. 

With so many kittens in addition to our special needs kittens, we could use your help. If you'd like to purchase cans of food, you can find it  at local veterinary offices for about $2.00 a can and drop them off at one of our adoption events. 

For other ways you can help donate to our foster animals, please visit our donation page.
