3-20-25 ~ So happy to report that Rex’s entropion surgery was a wonderful success! He’s fully recovered & looks fabulous! It is so nice to look into his clear, healthy, pain-free eyes. He looks a bit like a barn owl at the moment but his fur will grow back 🥰
Enormous thanks again to Valentina Garcia & Helping Homeless Felines for her generous support! 🐾😻🙏☀️

Ruthie & Rue ~ Welcome pet rats! 🐀🐀🥰 I spontaneously responded to a post seeking a home for the 2 sisters. I had many pet rats over the years (decades ago, all rescued/adopted) but after getting into cat rescue, there was no room to safely house small animals. With the passing of our beloved Danny last month space was freed up in the room he shared with Sweetie Pie.
Ruthie & Rue are so friendly, sweet & easy going. It’s great to have pet rats again! Unfortunately Ruthie has a large tumor on her chest, despite being only around a year old. The estimate by the vet to remove it was colossal 💔😢
The tumor is growing quickly so we’ll care for sweet Ruthie & spoil her until it’s time💔🐀💖🐾

Fred is an other youngster who came from a rescuer in WVa. He’s similar in age to Jeremy but is very mellow. This precious fellow just wants to cuddle & purr & curl up in the crook of your neck 💗 He likes to explore everywhere, including upon counter tops, among indoor plants, atop paperwork & craft projects, etc! His heart is pure gold so he’s forgiven 🥰

Spencer came to us from a rescue in Wythe, Va. He also waited patiently in a crate for an opening at a FeLV sanctuary. Spencer was rescued from an overpopulation crisis at a rural property. He overcame some health issues & is now ok. We’re hoping more good nutrition & TLC will bring the shine back to his coat. Spencer is a little shy but a very sweet cuddle bug 💗

Jeremy ~ This cute little buddy came to us from Frederick, Md’s shelter. He is the sweetest, most fun, playful, delightful kitty to have on board! He loves cuddles & is the most affectionate kitty ever 😻 He loves rasslin’ with big “Uncle” Terry, who is an overgrown kitten at heart. They even look alike 😸

Sasha came from RCACP in Roanoke & is the most fabulous, spectacular cat! This quirky girl is amazing as she is beautiful. Her plush coat is super silky & her personality is off the chart abundant! 😄 Sasha is very affectionate. She rolls around to get your attention & is very expressive & vocal about everything. She loves to cuddle & loves lap time.
Unfortunately Sasha doesn’t like other cats & refuses to come out of the large quarantine enclosure. (It’s ok, we have other quarantine spaces if needed 😸). She’ll only come out for snuggles when no other cats are in the room.
We don’t often do adoptions but it’s clear Sasha would be happier in a 1 cat home of her own. She’s FeLV+, outwardly healthy & the most unique, lovely cat!
Experienced cat parents interested in adopting Sasha please email [email protected] for our adoption application 🐾💗✨

We have been excited to welcome new kitties to our FeLV+ gang & some non-feline friends!
Rex is a big, handsome, friendly, mellow fellow. He came from a rescue in WVa & waited a long time in a crate for a spot at a FeLV+ sanctuary.
Rex got a check up & his eye ailment was diagnosed as entropion. This is a painful malformation of the eyelid where the eyelid is turned inward & rubs on the eye. Fortunately it can be corrected with surgery. He had surgery this week & it went well!
Poor Rex dislikes being crated & really dislikes the e collar & eye drops but he’s a good sport. He’s a very sweet guy 🧡
Enormous thanks to Val G at Helping Homeless Felines for generously covering Rex’s eyelid surgery to correct entropion 🐾💗🙏✨

Greetings Friends! 🐾☀️
I hope your new year is off to a good start. I normally love snowy winters but I’m truly ready for spring. Our winters are usually pretty mild with most snow/ice melting after a few days. This winter was much colder & snowier than usual with nearly 3 weeks of subfreezing temps. The driveway slope was frozen for several weeks & due to my vehicle having poor traction, I had to park at my neighbor’s at the top of the hill (thank you Adam & Nicole!).
Turns out the heated pads I ordered for the cat sheds turn off after 12 hours, so I had to bundle up regularly to go out & reset the timers. Fortunately I have a few that do not turn off, plus heated water & food dishes.
Mike’s truck did a great job getting up & down the hill but my car got stuck over the culvert & a tow truck had to pull it out (thank you Blair’s Towing!).
The last snow did some damage to the CatYard1. The top mesh came down on one side. While prepping to repair it, I found part of the cat shed roof was also damaged. I reached out to find a repair person but the quotes were high for our modest budget. In the meantime the cats were confined in the shed so they wouldn’t get out of the yard. Thank goodness a great repairman was referred to us (thank you Debbie H!) & he quickly got it done (thank you Anthony!).
Enormous thanks to Jenny V for her generous donation toward the repair of CatShed1’s roof! 🐾💗🙏☀️
