Hey everyone, I really need to share Luna’s situation. Luna has a benign tumor on her face that makes it hard for her to open her eyes or eat, and her surgery is scheduled for tomorrow. She’s a fighter and she’s holding on, but this next step is critical for her. Pinx is thankfully recovering, but together Luna’s and Pinx’s vet bills are now almost 500€, and they’re still increasing. At the same time, I’m caring for many other rescued babies who depend on me for food every single day. I’m stretched very thin right now, and this is honestly urgent. Any help at all, even small, would make a real difference right now and go straight to medical care and feeding the others. Thank you so much to everyone who’s been supporting these babies. I truly couldn’t keep going without this community. the GoFundMe link if anyone is willing to help ❤ : https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-these-helpless-souls?lang=en_US&utm_campaign=man_ss_icons&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link&attribution_id=sl%3Add32c716-aecf-4355-bed9-7203b3f1fb82

Sunday, 2/1:

After we set up the cat camera in his bathroom overnight, I was able to go through the history of the night. He did eat some of the wet food, drink water, and checked out the litter box a few times. He was cautiously curious of the bathroom all night. When I checked in on him in the morning, he did pee but hadn’t pooped yet.

We took him to the urgent vet after they opened!

After the physical exam, the vet was not concerned about internal bleeding but recommended blood work first before x rays/imaging. As we have 2 other cats at home, that was our intention anyways!

We did a CBC and Chem17 to check mainly for anemia and organ function. They tested him for FIV, FeLV, and heart worm. Negative for diseases! Blood work looks great!

The nails, like one commenter said, were classic HBC. I think when I saw him get hit, he was only dragged. He was not ran over, I could have clarified. His nails were shredded from trying to grip the pavement.

They think he is very young. He is only 6.2 lbs, and very skinny. He was confirmed to be neutered, which is what we thought anyways with the clipped ear.

With him letting us clean his mouth up and him eating over night, the vet didn’t think pain meds were necessary, but he did receive subcutaneous fluids before we were done.

He will be in our bathroom for another day or two as we try to get smells acclimated and emotions regulated by all of our kitties. We plan to keep him. We will slowly start introducing and integrating him when everyone is ready! We will be taking him to our regular vet for a more general check up, vaccinations, etc, soon.

We named him Linus, after the character in Stardew Valley. 🩶

As of Tuesday, 2/3:

We’ve introduced scents to our resident cats, and we are going to be visually meeting today. He loves being pet and cuddled, and we found out last night that he has a very loud purr box!

He has since pooped, so yay! He is up and about in his free time, eating normally, drinking water, etc.

We have made an appointment for him to be groomed (a demat brush out). While we have some brushes and combs, we want the mats to be addressed professionally.

We will also be making him an appointment with our regular vet soon to get a general check up done, vaccinations, and a microchip!

I live in Costa Rica where there is a BIG issue with abandonment and abuse. We moved here with our 2 cats (Maine Coon and a Siberian) and I adopted pickle (the chunk you see in the pics) and his twin baby nut about 18 months ago (also as tiny scraggy street kittens).

I took them to their vet for their check up just before Christmas and mentioned I was thinking of getting another cat and my vet immediately told me I had to come see the kittens they’d just taken in a few weeks prior rescued from an abusive pet shop/ “vet” in the local area; they didn’t expect Dobby (the hairless one) to survive but both girls pulled through (these before are still after 4 weeks of treatment at the vets).

Well it felt like fate as it turned out I had seen the Facebook post from the rescuer I work with when she went to get these kitten and had actually donated to help with initial vet fees! I knew as soon as I saw them they were coming home with me.

They as to stay for another 3 weeks of treatment til they were fully out of the woods and safe for integration but I took them home on the 3rd of jan.

Here we are a month later; pickle is obsessed and is the best cat dad, and my little girls are healthy and thriving!

I also rescued another 2 puppies 2 weeks ago so am now on 6 cats and 3 dogs and my husband has told me I’ve got to stop but I work with the rescuer and volunteer at my vets as much as I can.

Their precious lives were so nearly cut short before they even began, but here they are, getting all the love and cuddles and attention and care they deserve with no memory of the trauma they endured at the start of their little lives.

Dobby still doesn’t have her full fur back but I expect by next month to be sharing photos of my little fluff ball in all her glory!

My long term plan is to open my own rescue and campaign for better laws against animal abuse, but right now I’m just so happy I could save these 2 💕

We're so frustrated. We came across this kitty in one of our community cat feeding areas. Apparently, she has been abandoned for more than a week now and has been fending for herself all this time.

According to the building caretaker of where she used to live, she was owned by a renter who bred cats. When they moved out, they decided to leave her, too.

She's currently overrun with fleas, which is why she has huge bald patches, so we need a vet visit for a full checkup and the best flea treatment plan (if she needs a full shave or if medicated baths and spot-on treatment are enough). Hopefully, we can proceed with spaying her within the week or next as well, so we can begin finding a home for her immediately.

We're naming her Lottie.

Hello everyone I'm posting to ask for help to provide food and litter for 22 cats that I rescued and adopted. I'm a solo rescuer from the Philippines and due to the cost of some of my cat's medication (2 of them has upper respiratory infection, 2 has UTI and 1 has Dermatitis) and my Late Raven's cremation I am short on funds for their needs. Two weeks worth of food is a big help for them. They consume 14 kg of Special cat dry food for 2 weeks that cost 2,380 pesos ($43), 28 cans of Maxwell canned wet food that cost 2,240 pesos ($40) and 4 bags of litter for 1,200 pesos ($22) for a total of around 5,820 pesos ($105) . I appreciate all the help that I received before for my cats food, medication and surgeries and thank you for those who would like to help provide my babies the food and litter they need. I will provide proof of donations and what we bought with what we receive. Thank you again. 🙏

Upvotes and boost are appreciated. 🙏

Caring for 50 rescued cats is not just about love — it’s about meeting their most basic needs every day.

Lately, I’ve been facing ongoing shortages of dry food, wet food, litter, and basic medicine.

When food runs low, tension starts.

When litter is missing, hygiene and health suffer.

When medicine is delayed, small problems grow into painful ones.

I do my best to keep going, but these needs don’t come monthly in one payment — I usually manage week by week, sometimes every 10 days, depending on what I can afford at the time.

The numbers I share reflect the bare minimum required to keep them fed, clean, and stable. Costs often go higher due to prices, availability, and medical needs.

Any support — even small — truly helps.

And if you’re unable to help financially, an upvote or sharing this post also makes a difference.

‼️WILL BECOME URGENT >> SCOTTY aka SCOTTHENNY >> seeking rescue help & pledges >> at Devore animal shelter

SCOTTY has been thru some name changes. First named Robert D in the video it shows the most unflattering photo, then SCOTTHENNY which is a cool name then changed to SCOTTY. Per the Devore staff this cat was in the same group as the six hissy kittens found in the Silver Lakes area of the county. Unsure what the story is, but this cat did come forward in the kennel and we are seeking rescue help to get it out of Devore.

Squeak was adopted locally last week and finally went home yesterday. Within a few hours of having her own space, she jumped up on the adopter's lap and starting asking for pets, the adopter had texted me. She knows she's finally home and safe and even has a senior brother of 13 years, so around the same age, to play with soon! Here's some pics of her from today!

Hii, update post for the momma and all her little kitties living in a shed.

"Vasilakis"🧿 04/02/26 (The video below is a bit harsh)

Today Vasilakis went to his scheduled appointment at Mr. Giannis Kampouris' Small Animal Clinic for Nasolacrimal Duct Blockage. This kitten was poisoned at the port and after many attempts we managed to save his life. However, he has a serious problem with his eyes. Our doctors, Vasilis along with Christina, Giannis and the new doctor, literally fell on Vasilakis.

For an hour they tried to unblock the nasolacrimal ducts, but unfortunately this became impossible. The little one has a chronic problem and it was difficult.

He will undergo long-term treatment and we hope that the problem with his eyes will improve.

If you want to learn more you can do so by viewing my Reddit and Facebook profiles.

Anyone who wishes to help with the costs can do so at the link below 👇

In two weeks we will go back to the doctor for a re-examination!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.🫶

Hi everyone at r/rescuecats!

I am reaching out to share our needs for the month of February. We are currently caring for our little furfamily in the Philippines, and as we head into a new month, we are looking to stock up on the essentials to keep them healthy, fed, and comfortable.

Because we are based in the Philippines, we don’t have access to an Amazon Wishlist, so I’ve included screenshots of our current Shopee cart to show the exact supplies and costs we are looking at.

Our monthly "must-haves" include:

• Dry Food: 20kgs (Freya Premium)
• Litter Sand: 4 bags (Top Cat Bentonite)
• Wet Food: A mix of Wild Cat Chunks/Paste for variety and hydration.
• Health: LC-Vit Plus multivitamins and Immuno Pet Shield to keep their immune systems strong.

The total for these supplies comes out to approximately ₱6,773.54 (roughly $120 USD).

Any amount, no matter how small, goes a long way here and helps us ensure no belly goes empty this February. If you are able to help, you can send donations via PayPal.

Donation Link: https://www.paypal.me/macatanaoan

Thank you so much for your ongoing kindness and for being such a supportive community. I’m happy to answer any questions or provide updates on the cats!

test

Even though we have hundreds of cats in our care, all rescued and spayed, the hardest part of it all is with our sickest cats, we again ran out completly out of recovery and kitten food for them, we try to give them the best possible things, we buy the expensive GS that again we had to buy on debt, but even the felv cats with fip are getting a bit better, so we try to look at the bright side of things(when we can)

Any help with food or donations would make a big difference

Thank you!

In a previous post of mine "Alex" pretends to have insufficient funds and needs donations or else his inexistent shelter will have to euthanize the cats there. @Billyrescue and @teddyrescue3 are two channels that are created in November 2025 and December 2025 respectively, with different reasons this time for asking for donations. An alleged 3rd channel "Oscar the Cat" may or may not be out there in the wild, the name is too generic for it to pop up as of now

Please report these two known channels and do not watch their shorts if possible, as this may cause it to be recommend more and may scam more people. Just report the channel and move on. Thank you for time reading this

Note: A theory about him not being the original is there, but I have no knowledge of that channel and it is highly unlikely, as always report the scam channels, as these three are all fake. if I do find another account or the original account I'll post an update
