Recent CCN case Rosie (FKA K8) is now available for adoption through Purrfect Friends Cat Rescue.

Rosie’s foster says:

Meet Rosie! Rosie's luck began when she received help through Community Cat Network of Cincinnati. When she first came into rescue, she needed some extra care and attention, but as she was nursed back to health, her true personality quickly blossomed. Thank you Pleasant Ridge Pet Hospital for being a big part of her healing journey!

Rosie has proven to be one of the biggest lap cats and cuddle bugs around. If you're looking for a constant companion, she'll happily settle into your lap and stay there as long as you'll let her. She loves snuggling with her people and has the sweetest little vocalizations to let you know she's nearby or ready for some attention. She enjoys being brushed with her long golden brown tabby coat.

One of Rosie's most endearing quirks is her love of perching on your shoulder like a bird. Whether she's supervising your daily activities or simply wanting to be as close as possible, she's perfectly content riding along and taking in the world from her favorite spot. Rosie has overcome a rough start and is now ready to share her endless love with a family of her own. If you're searching for a devoted lap cat with a gentle heart, adorable chatter, and the unique habit of sitting on your shoulder like a feathered companion, Rosie may be the perfect match.

This affectionate girl is healthy, happy, and ready for her forever home. Rosie has been fully vetted through Purrfect Friends Cat Rescue, including a negative FIV/FeLV combo test, microchip, excellent recent bloodwork results, full vaccination series, flea and tick treatment, and deworming. She is currently on a prescription diet to add more fiber into her diet and doing wonderfully on that. Her adoption fee is $60, apply today through: https://www.pfcatrescue.org/adoption-application/

We have some tough news to share about TG, our kitty who had two injured legs.

TG’s injuries were complex, and were requiring 6 more weeks of crate rest, in addition to what he had already completed. His feeder was more than happy to do this, but as it turns out, TG was not. He began showing evidence of self Inflicted wounds, due to the stress of being contained, even with medication to help him relax.

Even after the 6 additional weeks of crate rest, TG’s recovery wasn’t guaranteed - far from it, actually. Given his age and the nature of the injury, we knew it was a long shot, but one we felt he deserved.

When TG began showing signs of stress, we knew it was his way of letting us know he didn’t want to continue being contained - he was done fighting.

Today, with his feeder right by his side, we set TG free from his pain 💔 🌈 .

We’re proud to take the whole picture of each and every case into account when making medical decisions, and thankful that we have a partner vet that does the same. That doesn’t make this decision any less painful. Please hold TG’s feeder Liz in your thoughts as she is heartbroken.

Fly high, TG. We’re sorry your outcome wasn’t better.

The bad news from us at CCN: effective immediately, our grants are on pause. We have not been able to keep up financially and we do not carry debt.

The good news: we have some fun raffle baskets on the horizon! Keep your eyes peeled in the coming weeks!

If we have already committed to helping you, fear not! We have you in our budget and will proceed as planned.

Thanks for understanding - and please spread the word.

It’s time to talk about teeth again!

Dentals are one of the best ways that we can improve quality of life for community cats. We often get applications for cats with mouth issues - their feeders find them drooling, or having difficulty eating. And off to the kitty dentist (also known as one of our wonderful partner vets) they go!

The downside is these dentals are expensive - and that’s because they take a lot of our vets time! X-rays are done, pain medications are given to keep them comfortable after extractions, and of course we require our feeders to hold them after these procedures are done, for the cat’s safety.

We’ve had a lot of dentals lately, including Fluffy, pictured here shortly after his dental (and high as a kite, so excuse the large pupils 👀 😹). Our bank account is feeling the effects of this, and for the time being we are limiting all grants to our $500 limit - something we don’t usually do because we know good vet care is worth it, and we like to see our cases all the way through.

We’re asking for your help today, so that we can continue to provide excellent and thorough vet care for community cats in our area.

Some of our board members showed up in support of (C.A.T.) Cat Adoption Team of Northern Kentucky and Southern Ohio’s fundraiser today, and had the best time!

We love supporting other rescues doing good work in our area, and this fundraiser is such a fun event every year! Thanks to the amazing volunteers of C.A.T. who we know work so hard to make this a success!

Bragging on our very own advisory board member Nicole Kastner.

You won’t find a bigger advocate for community cats than Coly. She presented to Cheviot’s city council with evidence based research about community cats, with a favorable outcome.

Both we and community cats are so lucky to have Coly on our side!

How it started 👉🏼 how it’s going, Georgetown kitty “Charlie” edition!

Charlie came to us a couple of months ago when his feeder reached out as Charlie had a really nasty wound. And we’ll be honest, until we saw the photos and then got our hands on him, we truly didn’t understand the gravity of his situation.

Charlie’s wound was in a location that made it incredibly difficult to heal. His treatment plan has included: crate rest to limit movement, antibiotics and pain meds, wound debriding and suturing, a Penrose drain, laser therapy, Manuka honey daily, wound flushing with chlorhexidine followed by saline twice daily, skin and gut supplements, a strict prescription diet, an e-collar, and constant cleaning of his crate and paper litter, to keep everything as sanitary as possible.

We knew if Charlie had a chance at healing, it would be a long haul, and we would need a medical foster. We are SO grateful to his medical foster, and to all of our supporters who make this medical care possible by donating to us, and sharing our stories.

Charlie has been the very best patient throughout all of this, and his feeder is looking forward to having him back - where he will now be kept inside only. We’re thankful that his sweet feeders have entrusted us to care for him.

This is why CCN exists - to give cats like Charlie a chance.

Meet CDC, CCN’s latest case that has had an entire village behind her - and learn how a spaybortion likely saved her life.

CDC’s feeder contacted us last week when she showed up with respiratory issues, and likely pregnant. Our priority immediately became ensuring that CDC didn’t contribute to the overpopulation, and further risk her health by giving birth. Thankfully, UCAN Nonprofit Spay/Neuter Clinic squeezed her in for a spay on Tuesday.

CDC was indeed pregnant, and in her body condition, giving birth and raising kittens would not have gone well for her. With our mission being to prevent the suffering of community cats, we support spaybortions, full stop.

The next step for CDC was to have her evaluated at Cincinnati Hills Animal Clinic for her respiratory issues, where it was discovered that her underlying issue is her mouth. She’s now scheduled for a dental with extractions, and is safe with her wonderful feeder.

Thankful for CDC’s village - we couldn’t do this without them.

Hopeful news for TG!

Tough Guy was sedated, had radiographs taken, wounds cleaned, antibiotics, pain medications, and anti-inflammatory medications administered today at Pleasant Ridge Pet Hospital.

We don’t know the origin of these wounds, but we know he must have been in incredible pain!

He will recover on crate rest for 2 weeks at his feeders house, and then will be neutered and if walking properly / healed, he will be released at his feeding site. All of this was possible because his feeder Liz took action when she saw a community cat in need.

Better days ahead, TG! You’re one lucky kitty 😻🖤🖤.

04/13/2026

“TG” (for “tough guy”) will be seeing our vet today and could use all of your good vibes! New to a colony in Lebanon where feeder and friend of CCN Liz lives, he showed up limping on not one but two legs. Liz trapped him last night and he’ll be evaluated in a couple of hours.
