✨EMMETT AND MIMI (previously known as Emory & Rue)✨

Who doesn't love some great post-adoption photo updates!😄

Happy family shots are the best!😻
Emmett and Mimi along with the brother from another mother, Max, are living their best lives together. They've even scored a totally secure balcony turned into one massive safe and secure, enclosed catio! These guys love soaking up the sunshine and visiting their garden while also hanging out with their dads.💞

Couldn't ask for anything better than this.🤗

❤️ MILLIE ❤️

A few years ago, Millie came to us as a scared, pregnant first-time mama.

Her journey into motherhood was anything but easy. She endured a difficult birth, lost one of her babies, showed little interest in caring for her two surviving kittens, and then became seriously ill with fever and infection. She also made it very clear to her foster mom, Kris, that she preferred her personal space — and wasn't afraid to enforce those boundaries. 😅

Millie simply wasn't ready for much interaction beyond admiring her from a distance.

💫 LOOK AT HER NOW! 😍

It's safe to say that Millie is not even remotely the same cat she was when she first arrived.

Today, she's a lover, not a fighter. This beautiful girl adores snuggle time with her people, enjoys watching the world from the window, loves to play, and happily grooms and cuddles with her feline friends. She has blossomed into an absolute sweetheart. 🩷

When you catch yourself looking past that shy or frightened cat, remember that the most rewarding relationships are often built with time, patience, love, and genuine effort. Give them that chance, and one day you may find yourself sharing a bond as beautiful as this one. ❤️🐾

Millie is also working on her fitness and weight loss goals and is hoping someone might want to spoil her and her friends with an exercise cat wheel to help them stay active and healthy and toss in a bottle or back. 😸

Millie is more than ready for her forever story. She would love to be adopted with one of her friends or join a home that already has a cat-friendly feline companion.

⚕️ SULLY'S TURN IN THE SPOTLIGHT... 😅

Sully had to make a trip to Kahu AH on Monday after a couple of inappropriate urinations over a three-week period. Then he suddenly vomited up undigested food hours after eating and seemed more lethargic than usual.

Blood work and a urinalysis were performed, and we're currently waiting on the results of a urine culture. Why? Because his in-house urine test showed he may have cocci bacteria present.
At this point, it honestly feels like the cats hear we're making progress on our debt reduction and decide it's their turn to be doted on. 😅🥴🤦🏻‍♀️

That said... just look at this face. 💜
Sully and his girlfriend, Sweet Marie, are both still searching for their forever home together. Yes, I realize I'm saying that while posting about a potential health issue. 😂 But honestly? I think there's something reassuring about knowing the ins and outs of a cat before adoption.

Nobody comes with guarantees—human or feline. There's something special about learning their quirks, understanding their challenges, and choosing to love them anyway. In many ways, that's what family is all about.

For now, we're hoping Sully's culture results give us some answers and that he's feeling more like himself again very soon. 🐾💕

💔 Imagine living every day unable to control your bladder or bowels — and then developing a thickening scar tissue causing narrowing that makes going to the bathroom even harder.

That's Milton's reality.

This sweet boy was born with Manx Syndrome and has already undergone a specialist procedure to break down scar tissue that was narrowing his colon last year. The procedure gave him months of relief and comfort before we noticed a new scar tissue had popped up.

This new stricture (the original one is still successfully broken down post-procedure) is making it difficult for Milton to pass stool, and his veterinary team believes another colonoscopy and balloon dilation procedure is needed to help him feel comfortable again and greatly reduce his need for weekly bougienage (a manual stretching of the colon and breakdown of the scar tissue).

Because quality of life isn't just about surviving — it's about being able to do basic things without pain.

We're trying to raise $2,778.10 to get Milton the specialist care he needs.

Every dollar helps.

✨ WEE DOLLAR WEDNESDAY FOR MILTON! ✨

Help us turn Milton's luck around by supporting his medical needs this Wee Dollar Wednesday! 💫

Milton is working hard to raise the funds needed for a procedure that will help bring him much-needed colon relief and improve his comfort and quality of life.

Milton was born with Manx Syndrome, a naturally occurring condition caused by a genetic mutation. As a result, the nerves that control parts of his lower body don't function properly. He experiences misfiring signals and sensations in his back legs (for example, simply touching his feet can trigger leg spasms), and he has no control over his bladder or bowels.

To keep him healthy, Milton's bladder must be manually expressed three times a day to empty urine and reduce the risk of infection caused by bacteria buildup from stagnant urine.

His bowel function presents even greater challenges. Along with living with IBS, Milton's paralysis means he is often unaware when he is defecating and has no control over the frequency. Over time, the constant irritation to his colon has caused scar tissue to form. That scar tissue has gradually thickened, narrowing the passage through his colon and re**um.

Last year, Milton developed a stricture that required a procedure called bougienage — a manual stretching technique used to break down scar tissue and widen the passageway, allowing stool to pass more comfortably and reducing the risk of severe constipation.

When the manual procedure wasn't providing enough relief, Milton was referred to a specialist. He underwent a colonoscopy and balloon dilation procedure to more thoroughly break down the scar tissue and restore better flow through the affected area.

For many months afterward, Milton did wonderfully, needing only occasional maintenance/recheck bougienage.

Unfortunately, we've since discovered a new stricture, and this one is proving to be particularly stubborn. While manual bougienage is helping somewhat, it simply isn't enough. We also suspect there may be a third stricture higher up in the colon, although we can't confirm that without further diagnostics.

This is why another colonoscopy and balloon dilation procedure is so important for Milton's well-being. Being able to toilet comfortably is a huge part of quality of life, and right now Milton is working harder than he should have to.

We want to give him relief. We want to make him more comfortable. We want to help him continue living his best life.

We need your help to make that happen. 💜

HOLLYBERRY UPDATE

This beautiful lady's neck is healing quite nicely! Her medication is working well. She's even got on a pretty stylish and soft neck gator to help prevent further scratching - thanks to her foster mom and some old socks.😄

The trigger for her starting back up with her scratching is suspected to likely be allergy related - whether from the room spray or scented candle used to mask her stinky poops, less possibly, food, as we introduced a new food (tho she's never shown issue with food before) or possibly just seasonal allergies. Once she started scratching, it just became habitual once again. This was the worst damage done to her neck, so we're relieved treatment is still working for her and working very well.

Hollyberry, upon recheck, also showed signs of arthritic pain and discomfort despite reports of her moving around quite well at home. She started back on some Onsior which had been stopped for a little while due to a pancreatitis flare and some ongoing soft stools. We also added some forti flora into her diet as her poops have been described as quite stinky. This seems to be doing the trick and fixing the stink.🌹

Overall, our lovely Hollyberry is doing well.❤️

💜CHUDLEY went to Kahu AH last night for what was supposed to be an easy suture removal appt. and back home. Why should any visit be so simple tho? That's just silly thinking! 🥴

His sutures came out and he looks absolutely beautiful. Awesome suturing by his emergency, spur of the moment surgery vet and purrfectly uneventful healing by our boy.✨

And this is when we were supposed to head home, happy and without any other issues except his kidney disease in tow. Alas, that was short lived thinking.🫣

After the vet left the room, I was cooing at Chudley, petting him and giving him head kisses - and that's when I locked in on something that set off a little question mark in my brain. There's usually some patchwork on his ear, so that wasn't really the concern. Some redness, and his left ear felt a bit harder or thicker (not sure how to explain it exactly - inflamed, possibly) - those were my initial concerns that had me call our vet back in. Ultimately, when we flipped his left ear to look inside, we saw all the waxy dirt.😬😳 So, a sampling from both ears for checking under the microscope and a total cleaning were done.

At first, it looked like he just had very waxy ears under the microscope - but the other ear sample was not quite as waxy and that's how his ear infection was discovered.😩 If Chudley was scratching his ears at all, he did it in private, but he also just may not have ever been scratching.

While the tech was cleaning his ears and I was holding our handsome guy, I felt a scab on his right shoulder. So, we took a closer look, thinking maybe he got swatted or something, expecting to find a typical scab. Of course not. Why would anything be typical?🤦🏻‍♀️

What we found was an oily feeling scab that was questionable. So again, we had our vet come back in to get her thoughts. It seems he likely had a small something that had burst, but not likely from a nail puncture and it wasn't a bite wound either. So, we shaved the area to make monitoring easier. We all hope it's maybe a result of him itching his ears and missing or maybe he rubbed against something that snagged on him, but only time will tell whether there's anything more to be concerned about as it heals.

After this finding, our vet jokingly told me to stop looking at him.🤣

We came in for suture removal and left with ear drops and a shaved shoulder to monitor.

🎉💖REMY - an overdue announcement that this sweet young senior boy has found his forever home with his foster mom, Deborah!😻

We didn't post a whole lot about Remy when he came into the rescue because it didn't take long for his foster mom to realize that there was no way she could part with such a sweet soul! 🥰 Who could blame her! He's so lovely.

He got all his medical needs done, is doing well with his weight loss journey and he healed up nicely from his dental. Unlike most of our cats - Remy had nothing else exciting going on health-wise, thankfully.😅

The only thing left to do was welcome him home. And it was very fitting that on Mother's Day, this boy finalized his adoption!❤️

✨WISHING REMY A BEAUTIFUL LOVE-FILLED LIFETIME WITH HIS MAMA!🌷
