Cats Of San Bernardino

New Rescue Alert! m.

We were told about an injured cat with a limp leg that was dangling behind him. We had gotten a freeze warning and knew he might not make it with that injury in the cold... we rushed out to rescue him.

We initially tried to get him with the drop trap, but he wanted nothing to do with it. Upon trying to move the traps closer he got startled and moved. We got out our net which he evaded too. He ended up hiding beneath a neighboring property. We got permission to place a trap below their house but he evaded that too, leaving through another uncovered access point.

The weather started to turn with strong winds and heavy rain. We left a trap in front of the home where he has a feeder. She said she had tried to trap him before and had never succeeded. We were still optimistic and asked her to check the trap every hour. He must have known we were there to help because a couple hours after we left, he went in ❤️🤗🥰

We have named this beautiful boy Santiago. He is now safe and warm in our care. He is stable and will be seeing our vet for a full assessment tomorrow.

Stay tuned for updates.

Cats of San Bernardino was started by Jaina and Ivy Spagis when they moved to San Bernardino in 2016 from Los Angeles. They were shocked that San Bernardino did not offer free spay and neuter services like LA and realized that the feral situation in their new neighborhood was out of control. They began trapping and spaying/neutering feral cats at their own expense, but soon realized the problem was too big to tackle on their own. They have converted their home into an animal sanctuary, providing space for kittens and their mommas waiting for adoption, rehabilitation areas for recovering injured cats, play areas for healthy cats. With the help of foster families in the city of San Bernardino they have as many as 50 cats in their care at one time.Their dream is to one day have a large property/facility which will help save thousands of more lives. This new property would have catios, feral enclosures, a medical room, nursery, rehabilitation area, and adoption center.
