Just a short selection of our June intakes, all sick or injured or both, or orphaned. We are doing lots of wound care and medicating around the clock.

Our food cabinets are looooooow 😅 and we could really use some help with canned cat food and canned kitten food, as well as wound care supplies.

If you’d like to help feed these little eating machines, here are our wish lists:

Little Herbie is having a rough night. He got syringe fed some high calorie yummies and got cleaned up with a “bird bath”. Finally sleeping peacefully on his “friend”.

There’s so much this little guy hasn’t experienced yet, but being part of a family who cherishes him as another beloved member is at the top of my list of things I want him to know. I want this dude to have a Christmas stocking this year. I want him to be someone’s new best friend. We want that for all the cats we encounter, but when a little baby has experienced so much pain and suffering in such a short time in this world, it feels even more important to make their world better. I want this little floof to be the reason someone is excited to get home from work. I want him to have his own bed but not even use it because he’s tucked in with his people in their bed. I want him to get the zoomies at 3am and manipulate his people into wearing him out with play time before bed. I want all the wonderful things for this kitten, and I want him to be a wonderful addition to someone’s life. You just gotta hang on a little longer, buddy.

Gerard has a broken leg but you wouldn’t be able to tell with him just chilling in his bed because he never stops making biscuits.

We have taken in multiple kitties with injuries from mild to 😱gaaaaahhhh-LEE that’s rough😳, and we are super over saturated and exhausted! Our intake is closed and we will also be closed tomorrow (Monday June 16th) to attend a training opportunity.

Stay tuned for updates on our new hurt friends ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹🐾

Our little broken boy Herbie has a belly full of (liquid) food and medicines and he’s snoozing in a warm incubator with an emotional support fake mom 🧸. He is swollen and stinky and his jaw is a mess so he needs to be syringe fed slowly. This poor kid has been through so much for just six weeks in the world. Today he has met many good humans who just want to help him feel better. We are grateful for our friends at Cherokee Animal Care Clinic for giving him a fighting chance! He will be getting the special rehabilitative care that Catman2 has become known for. Hang in there, little buddy - there are better days ahead ❤️‍🩹

This little wisp of a kitten is spending the day with our friends at cherokee_animal_care_clinic_ getting desperately needed care for a broken jaw.

Thank you to Amanda, with whom we are working on TNRing some feral kitties, for finding this baby and reaching out for help. Thank you to the good folks at Cherokee Animal Care Clinic for working with us once again to help a little broken buddy, especially Mayson and Dr. Lina 💗😻

We will update this evening when we actually get to meet the little floof!

What a great day at our annual partner meeting at the ASPCA Spay Neuter Alliance. We even won TWO awards! One for best name… That Thar’s a Purebred Hoss Cat (a La Little Bubby Child) who was a giant community cat we trapped for TNR, and Most Creative Way to Pay an Invoice because any time I write checks to pay our bills, I include little silly musings and apparently they bring a lot of people joy. They had a whole book of things I’ve sent over the years 😂🤪 I like to keep people guessing and laughing!

So good to be around so many likeminded folks working so hard for the greater good. Shout out to Sandi and the grandkids for holding the fort down for me!

Amber Lynn wants yall to know she’s NOT pleased with her cone! She needs to have it on, so she’s not able to scratch at the eosinophilic plaques on her face and neck. But that doesn’t mean she has to be happy about it!! She will be happier soon!

The shelter is closed today as we have an annual partner meeting to attend for our spay/neuter program. Hopefully we will come back with lots of info and resources and creative solutions to share with our team at ARF and with our clients. 💗

Buddha is a young fella who came to Catman2 with a giant, deep wound on his b***y. He was lucky he had a friendly neighbor looking out for him and noticed he had been badly wounded. He had clearly had an abscess that ruptured and left him with deep soft tissue trauma. I don’t know how she did it but Dr. Black stitched him up and closed the wound after flushing it of all its yuckiness 🤢. It has stayed mostly closed and is healing remarkably well. He must have been in so much pain just before the abscess ruptured. We are glad to have been able to help Buddha so quickly, and that’s all thanks to our incredible supporters who make sure we have the right supplies to provide wound care and to Sylva Animal Hospital for their willingness to constantly let me mess with their day 🙃

Buddha has a ways to go in healing before we can place him up for adoption but while he’s waiting, he will entertain applications: https://form.jotform.us/93037105972154

Sisqo had his right front leg amputated today after suffering a traumatic break, radial nerve damage, and a degloved paw. The surgery went well but he stopped breathing before being moved to post-op recovery. Our incredible vet resuscitated him. He’s a little wonky from pain meds but he ate some yummy sloppy food and is resting comfortably while marveling at the little kittens wrestling in the kennel above him. We will have to wait and see if he has any deficits from his (very brief) loss of one of his nine lives.

This little guy has been through it. Thanks to everyone who sent $2 (or more) last Two Dollar Tuesday, Sisqo got the urgent care he needed to survive and leave the pain of his old life behind. Y’all really are the best 😻. - Kaleb
