🐾 11 NEW FACES AT THE BORING SAFE HAVEN! 🐾

We’re a little late sharing this exciting news, but things have been a little hectic around here lately… 😅

Last weekend, we welcomed 11 new cats into our rescue! That’s right… TEN kittens & ONE mama cat!

🐾 Litter #1: Five adorable kittens! Their mama did not come into our care, but we are working on getting her spayed to help prevent any future litters.
🐾 Litter #2: Five more kittens, AND their mama! This bunch are currently a bit spicy 🌶️
They're feral and still learning that humans aren't so scary. Ironically, their mama is an absolute sweetheart and incredibly friendly! Usually, it's the other way around..

We’ll be sharing more about these adorable little faces soon, including names, genders, and updates as they settle into rescue life!

❤️ BUT WE COULD REALLY USE YOUR HELP! ❤️

Taking in 11 cats at once is no small feat! Between food, litter, veterinary care, vaccinations, spay/neuters, and everything else that goes into caring for these little lives, the expenses add up FAST.

If you've been looking for a way to support our rescue, now would be a wonderful time!

🐾 SHARE this post to help us reach more people!

🐾 SPREAD THE WORD about our adoptable cats and kittens! Even if you're not looking to adopt, you might know someone who is!

🐾 CHECK OUT OUR WISH LIST! We could especially use wet kitten food right now! With 10 new growing mouths to feed, we're going through it like crazy!

Every donation, every share, and every adoption helps us continue opening our doors to cats and kittens who need us.

11 more lives are safe because we were able to say YES ❤️

Thank you for helping us make that possible. We truly couldn't do this without our amazing community! 🐾

A little late to sharing, but……

🎉 FIJI HAS BEEN ADOPTED! 🎉

After months of patiently waiting, our sweet Fiji has FINALLY found her forever home!

We couldn't be happier for this girl! Fiji was one of our longest-standing kittens in foster care, and while we wish it hadn't taken so long, we're so excited that she finally has a family to call her own.

But our work isn't done just yet!
💕 BALI & PICKLES ARE STILL WAITING! 💕

These two beautiful girls have been patiently waiting for their own happy endings, and we would absolutely LOVE to see them find their forever families!

🐱 BALI: Our sweet girl has really blossomed during her time in foster care! Once a wild little kitten, Bali has become quite the cuddler while still maintaining her playful personality. She's wonderful with other cats and dogs and has so much love to give!

🐱 PICKLES: Our little Velcro kitty! Pickles absolutely adores attention, cuddles, and being close to her people. She'll happily ride around in your arms or perch on your shoulder! Pickles has a condition called pectus excavatum (an indented breastbone), but thankfully, it isn't currently affecting her, and she's living life just like any other kitten!

❤️ Bali's adoption fee is reduced to just $100!

Both girls deserve loving homes of their own, and we're hoping their turn is right around the corner.

As a reminder, they are each spayed, microchipped, have their first vaccines, and ready to find their purrrfect family!

📩 Interested in adopting Bali or Pickles? Send us a message! Even if you can't adopt, sharing this post could help us find their perfect families!

Let's make Bali and Pickles our next adoption success stories!

🐾❤️ A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE… NOW SHE JUST NEEDS A FOREVER HOME! ❤️🐾

Remember our sweet girl, Chance?! 🥹

When Chance first came into our care, she had suffered some pretty significant injuries, including a severely damaged tail and an injured leg. Her future was uncertain, and we weren't entirely sure what her recovery would look like.

If you’ve followed along with her story, you may already know some of the following:
❤️ Chance's recovery from her tail amputation has been completely uneventful!
❤️ She gets to KEEP her leg! No additional amputation necessary!
❤️ She was just spayed on Wednesday and is currently healing up beautifully!

And now, this sweet girl is getting ready for the next chapter of her life… finding her furever family!

If there's one thing you should know about Chance, it's that she is an absolute SWEETHEART 💕

This girl is seriously as sweet as they come! She will happily let you scoop her up, carry her around, and snuggle her to your heart's content. But don't let her cuddly personality fool you, she's still very much a playful kitten who LOVES a good wand toy being waved around for her! 🪶

Even better? Chance gets along wonderfully with both cats AND dogs! 🐱🐶

After everything this little girl has been through, it's incredible to see her thriving. She hasn't let her rough start slow her down one bit, and we're so excited for her to experience all the love and happiness that comes with having a family of her very own.

Chance has already overcome so much. Now all she needs is someone willing to give her the happy ending she deserves. ❤️

And as always, please SHARE! You never know who might fall in love with this special little lady.

FOSTER FOUND

🚨URGENT REQUEST🚨

Do we have anyone willing to foster a semi-feral mom + 4 babies???

10/06/2026

And then…. There were 3 ✨🐾

Chorizo & Wasabi were adopted together over the weekend, leaving us with just 3 female kittens left who are eagerly looking for their furever families 🐱💗

🌴 Fiji
🌺 Bali
🥒 Pickles

Bios are included in their pictures!

🐾 A few things to note:
Fiji and Bali came into our rescue together and have officially become two of our longest-waiting kittens. Because of that, their adoption fees have been reduced to just $100 each!
They are currently fostered separately, but we think they could make a wonderful pair if someone wanted to adopt them together ❤️
This is absolutely not a requirement, we are more than happy to find them each the perfect home separately!

Pickles does have what’s called, pectus excavatum, meaning her breastbone is indented. This is a genetic defect. At this point, it isn’t affecting her, she’s a happy, active, normal kitten and may very well continue to live a completely normal life. We just want her future family to be aware and love her exactly as she is 💗
We are more than happy to answer any questions surrounding this.

💜 Adoption fee for Pickles is $150
💜 Adoption fee for Fiji and Bali is $100 each

They are fixed, microchipped, and have their first vaccines.

All five are still young kittens with so much love to give.

And as always, shares help more than you know. Even if you can’t adopt, sharing this post might be what finally puts one of these babies in front of their future family.

Behind the scenes of rescue 🎬✨🧼🧹

When we’re not doing intakes, running to and from the vet, or playing with our furry friends, we’re usually doing lots and LOTS of cleaning.

Here is a glimpse of what our Sunday has entailed (still not done yet). Cleaning lots of kennels and litter boxes!
Within a rescue, it’s so important to continuously clean and disinfect everything to prevent the spread of illness and disease.

We do our very best to keep everyone happy and healthy!! 💗🐾

🐾 We could really use our community right now 🐾

We don’t love making posts like this, but transparency has always been important to us, and the reality is, this past month has hit us hard financially.

💩 First came the p**p. So. Much. P**p.

A couple of kittens in our care brought along a particularly nasty case of diarrhea. Thankfully, everyone is finally cleared up and doing well! But we’re still going through the not-so-glamorous part of rescue: disinfecting EVERYTHING.

We use a high-quality, veterinary-grade disinfectant to keep everyone safe, and when you’re using it daily, the cost adds up quickly.

🐱 Then came Boots.

Boots is a kitty we previously adopted out to one of our fosters. When there was concern he had ingested something and his adopter was facing financial difficulties, we agreed to help get him the emergency care he needed.

We quickly learned Boots did have material lodged in his intestines. Thankfully, the amazing team at Guardian Veterinary Care was able to remove it that same day, and Boots is doing great! 💙🐾

His adopter also learned an important lesson: some cats will eat fake plants.
While they may not be poisonous, they can still cause a very real, and very expensive, emergency.

Boots’ procedure alone cost us just over $1,500.

But we also have some REALLY good news to share…

🎉 CHANCE GETS TO KEEP HER LEG!!! 🎉

Chance came to us with a severely degloved tail and a broken back leg. Her tail had to be amputated, with one of our biggest concerns being whether she would retain normal re**al function afterward. Thankfully, she has recovered beautifully with no loss of function 💗

Her broken leg initially looked like it might require amputation too, but we gave her body time to heal after her first surgery, and somehow, that little leg healed!

No leg amputation. No additional major surgery. She gets to keep all four paws! 🥹 She still needs to be spayed, but that feels pretty small compared with everything she’s already overcome.

So while we’ve had some wonderful outcomes, the financial reality behind them is a little harder.

In roughly one month, we’ve renewed our rescue insurance, taken on Chance’s medical care, battled diarrhea and the mountain of cleaning that came with it, paid for Boots’ unexpected emergency procedure, all while continuing to care for the other 24 cats currently relying on us.

And somewhere along the way… we found ourselves in a hole.

So, here we are asking for help… ❤️‍🩹

We don’t have a huge funding source behind us. Donations from people in our community are what allow us to keep doing this and keep saying “yes” when an animal needs us.

If you’re able to donate, even a small amount would mean so much to us right now.

🐾 Venmo:
🐾 PayPal: [email protected]
🐾 Via this Facebook post

And if donating isn't possible, please share this post. Sharing costs nothing and helps get our rescue, our animals, and what we do in front of more people.

Donate. Share. Tell someone about us. Every bit of it helps keep this little rescue going.

And we’re including some pictures of Chance as the perfect reminder of exactly why we do what we do. Seriously… who could resist that little face?! 🥹🐾💗

Thank you, as always, for being in our corner.
