MEET HUNTER & FINN 🧡 THEIR SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE

Hunter and Finn arrived at our shelter and are finally safe after spending years surviving on the streets.

Hunter’s story is heartbreaking. His owner passed away in 2023, and he was left behind to fend for himself. He spent the past three years surviving on the streets, and we can only imagine how terrifying and confusing it was for him. We can see the toll this has had on Hunter’s health, but he now has a chance to recover off the streets.

Finn’s past remains a mystery, including how he lost his eye. What we do know is that he bonded with Hunter. Finn was rescued at the same time so they wouldn’t have to be separated.

After everything they have endured, we would love to find them a forever home together, where they can finally feel safe, loved and cared for.

Please share their story and help us find these deserving boys the happy ending they have waited so long for.

If you would like to support their recovery, please consider donating. No amount is too small and all donations above $2 are tax deductible.

Introducing one of our newest residents, and probably one of the smallest kittens we've rescued who wasn't born at our shelter.

This little cutie weighed just over 300g when she arrived. She was found alone in a backyard, with no mum or siblings in sight. A neighbour brought her to us, where she is now safe.

We don't know whether she's a boy or girl yet, so we're calling her a 'she' for now.

She's slowly putting on weight, loves her cuddles and is very vocal when she wants attention from our volunteers! Of course, she gets plenty of cuddles. Seriously, who can resist? 😻

This is where your donations go, and why our dedicated volunteers do what they do. To give tiny kittens like this one the care they need to survive, grow and be safe from the dangers outside.

We weigh our little ones every day to monitor their progress, and hand-feed those without mums who are struggling to eat on their own.

And this little girl is just one of many kittens in our care who need nutritious food to help them grow.

We feed our kittens Royal Canin Mother & Babycat wet food and Fussy Cat Grain Free Chicken for Kittens.

If you can spare a few dollars towards kitten food, we'd be very grateful. Every little bit helps us care for kittens like this tiny girl.

You can donate through our website, or drop off kitten food donations directly at our shelter.

Thank you for helping us give these little ones the best possible start. ❤️

We're urgently looking for a qualified building certifier or someone experienced and qualified to submit Construction Certificate applications to help us with a submission to Blacktown Council.

We have our DA approval and all the necessary paperwork (including drawings), but unfortunately don't have the expertise or qualifications to complete the next step ourselves.

The work is non-structural and involves installing steel-framed pens and cages with steel mesh fronts to provide safe accommodation for our rescued cats and kittens.

We're desperate to get this final stage underway so we can move the cats into their new shelter.

If you're qualified to help, or know someone who might be, please get in touch with us as soon as possible.

And if you could share this post, we'd really appreciate it. Every bit of help brings us closer to getting the cats into their new home. 😻🐾🙏

The fit-out is moving along and now we need a few more pairs of hands! 🐾

A huge thank you to everyone who has already helped us get the new shelter ready. There’s been plenty happening behind the scenes with the cat enclosures , and every bit of help is getting us closer to moving the cats and kittens into their new home.

For our next stage, you don’t need to be a builder or tradie to lend a hand.

We’re looking for volunteers who can help with things like moving items around, setting up tables and chairs, some light painting, organising areas and generally helping us get everything into place.

If you’ve got some spare time this week on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday between 8am-2pm, and happy to pitch in, we’d love to hear from you.

Even a little bit of your time can make a big difference when there’s a long list of jobs to get through!

Want to help? Send us a message and we’ll put you in contact with Bernard who is managing all the tasks .

And if you can’t help, please share this with someone who might. ❤️🐾

Well, that didn’t take long for someone to fall in love with Frankie. She’s been adopted!

Enjoy your forever home, Frankie 😻

A couple of weeks ago we were contacted about 14-year-old Allie.

Her owner was in hospital and was not expected to come home. We were told the family had asked for Allie to either be surrendered to a rescue or euthanised.

The woman temporarily caring for her had already taken Allie to three vets, asking for her to be euthanised. Every vet refused because nothing was wrong with her.

Allie could have lost her life simply because her owner could no longer care for her.

When we got the call, we didn't hesitate to welcome Allie into our shelter.

We were told she was very afraid and couldn’t be petted. But once she felt safe, she happily accepted pats and even purred, a lot. ❤️

Allie is now able to get the second chance she deserves. And don't let the fact that she's 14 years old put you off. She's still young at heart, still deserves to be loved, and could be a perfect companion for a few more years to come.

We have many other cats and kittens just like Allie, each with their own story.

If you would like to adopt, please contact us directly or visit https://saveapetfdn.com

If you would like to help us continue saving cats like Allie, donations can be made here:

Thanks to the amazing people who generously gave their time to help with the new shelter in the past week. We’re making great progress. 😀

The glue on the floor was removed, the floor painted, and the frames put in place for the first lot of cat enclosures. The vision is starting to take shape.

Here are some photos from the past few days. 🐱

Meet Coco ❤️

Coco made herself at home sleeping in a garden bed by a water bank. She had been living on the streets for a couple of months and was being fed by some lovely people who worked nearby.

Coco was incredibly friendly and affectionate, so they reached out to us for help.

She was microchipped, and the vet made several attempts to contact her owner. Two days later, the owner finally returned the call and said:

“My ex had her but he isn’t looking after her. I don’t want her.”

It breaks our hearts that this beautiful, loving girl was simply discarded like she was nothing.

Coco has now been surrendered to the Foundation and she is settling in beautifully. She seems so happy and comfortable, and is safe. ❤️

If you would like to meet Coco, please contact us directly or complete an adoption application and we will be in touch.

Thank you so much for supporting us and giving cats like Coco a second chance. ❤️

Update: Frankie has been adopted 😻😻😻

Frankie is safe at our shelter ❤️

This little cutie pie was found wandering the streets of Wetherill Park all alone.

No mum. No siblings. Just a tiny kitten trying to survive on the scary streets.

The entire colony had already been desexed except for one male, so we believe Frankie must have wandered over from a nearby site.

And thankfully, that turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to her.

Frankie was trapped, brought to safety and is now fully vetted and available for adoption. ❤️

She spent two weeks being socialised, but honestly, this little girl went from street kitty to house kitty in about 30 minutes! 😂

She is an absolute love bug and ready for her own human family.

If you would like to meet this gorgeous little girl, please contact us directly or complete an adoption application and we will be in touch.
