Thank you Patricia & Lee/Michelle for the donation towards Rowan. Here is an update from his foster mom. It’s very good news.

Update from Lauren 😻
I come baring good news 🥰
Rowan started taking his bottle again at 4:30 am 12 hours after his first dose of antibiotics, after his second dose he almost at his usual amount. Starting to get spunky again, diarrhea has slowed down a lot. ❤️🙏🏻

I am getting multiple calls from the same people. We are in a bad service area when I answer the calls get dropped or my phone doesn’t even ring.
I am currently unavailable as I am on a family vacation. I will return on Wednesday, September 3rd. Regarding adoption inquiries, please note that there is a formal process in place. You cannot just come and pick up a cat that’s not how it works.
To initiate the process, kindly provide your email address or mailing address, and you will receive an application. Approval is mandatory prior to discussing adoption. We prioritize thoroughness to ensure suitable homes. Upon my return, I will contact you if you have left a message. We appreciate your patience.

Hello. I would like to emphasize that I am not being negative in any way, but if you contact me regarding outdoor cat adoptions, please ensure that you have a suitable shelter, such as a barn or shed, to provide for their needs. These animals still require regular feeding, watering, and care. They are highly effective at controlling rodent populations, and I can attest that they are well-fed and thrive in their roles. They successfully eliminate mice, moles, snakes, and chipmunks and drop them in front of the kitty castle. If you submit an application and it is not fully completed, you will not receive a response from me. I do not have the time to continually remind potential adopters to complete the application entirely. My priority is the welfare of these animals, and I prefer to keep them in my care rather than risk placing them in a suboptimal situation. We invest significant time and effort into the care of these animals, and it is essential that they are placed in suitable homes, even if they will be living outdoors. They still require a good home, and we are committed to ensuring their well-being.

If you are wondering, these kitties have all been neutered and vetted negative for FIV/FELV. They reside primarily in the kitty shack, but occasionally venture into the woods to hunt rodents. Due to various reasons, these cats could not be returned to their original trapped area and were therefore brought here, undergoing a 30-day acclimation period. Some are available for adoption to approved barn or shed locations, pending completion of an adoption application.

We would like to extend our gratitude to everyone who donates. Our current stock of adult cat food is sufficient.
However, we are in urgent need of kitten formula, Fancy Feast kitten wet food, and litter. With 22 kittens in our care, these supplies are essential.
If you know of anyone interested in adopting a kitten, please refer them to us. We would greatly appreciate it. Below are the links to our wish list, and items can be shipped to Thumb Kitties TNR & Adoption, 5987 Sand Rd., Caseville, MI 48725. We also have a dropbox available.
