Kit Kat Alley Rescue MISSION COMPLETE: NATIONAL CAT DAY SUCCESS! 🐾

We are thrilled to share that our National Cat Day mission was a total success! A grand total of 16 sweet kitties have been fully fixed and vaccinated!
This massive win for our community wouldn't have been possible without the elite team at Linden Animal Clinic . A massive, heartfelt thank you to Dr. Steven Scott, his wonderful clinic manager, his amazing receptionist, and his incredible vet techs. Every single member of his staff is absolutely beautiful inside and out. They always make us feel right at home, and they treat every single animal with the most gentle, knowledgeable, and elite care imaginable. We truly appreciate you all!
Thank you Debby Kidd for transporting. We love you! Youre an excellent driver and TNR. Thank you for what you do.
We also want to send a huge wave of gratitude to everyone who stepped up and donated for National Cat Day. While we didn't quite hit our fundraising goal, your generosity lowered our veterinary bill significantly.
In a twist of absolute irony—especially considering today's date—our final remaining balance with the new service charges added in comes out to exactly $1,026! (Out of that total, $358 went directly toward vital flea and tick prevention to keep these babies fully protected!) 🤯

We do everything we can for these animals within our limitations, but we can only push forward because of our incredible community. To everyone across the great state of Tennessee and throughout the entire nation: thank you for always having our backs.

If you would like to help us clear this remaining $1,026 balance and keep our spay, neuter, and rescue missions going, please consider sending a donation today! Every single dollar makes a difference.

🍂 STAY TUNED FOR NOVEMBER! 🍂
The work never stops! Get ready for our next big Spay and Neuter Day coming up this November. We are incredibly excited to announce that we will be pairing it with a special fundraiser and adoption event with the theme: "Fall in Love with the Kitties!" Keep your eyes peeled for dates and details soon so you can find your next furry family member or help us back our upcoming clinic day!

FOSTER OR RESCUE NEEDED IMMEDIATELY – MOUNT PLEASANT / MAURY COUNTY AREA! 🚨
The Maury County Sheriff's Department reached out to us about five incredibly friendly kittens who are roughly 5 weeks old and need a safe place to land.
Kit Kat Alley Rescue is ready and willing to officially intake these sweet babies, but our physical rescue space is completely at capacity. We can only save them if we find an immediate foster home, or if another fellow rescue can step up!
🏡 WHAT WE NEED:
• A dedicated foster in the Mount Pleasant/Maury County area who can look after these 5 kittens for just 3 to 4 weeks while we prepare them for a permanent foster placement.
• OR an approved 501c3 rescue organization that has the immediate space to take them into their program.
These little ones are far too young and vulnerable to be left without a safe indoor environment. If you can open your heart and a spare room (a bathroom or laundry room works perfectly for kittens this size!) for just a few short weeks, you will literally be saving five lives today.
📥 HOW TO HELP:
• If you can foster, please message our page directly or call/text us at 615-944-0522.
• You can also email us at [email protected].
• Please SHARE this post! Even if you can't foster, your share might reach the exact person who can.
Let's work together to get these babies safe and warm! 🐾❤️

The CDC has issued a nationwide health advisory after reporting a noticeable rise in human exposures to rabid or potentially rabid animals across the United States.

From July through August 2026, the CDC received 17% more rabies-related inquiries than during the same period in 2025. Importantly, this does not mean human rabies cases increased by 17%. The figure reflects increased reports, consultations and potential exposure events, including several mass-exposure incidents.

The advisory comes as multiple U.S. jurisdictions report increased encounters with animals suspected or confirmed to have rabies. At least eight state health departments also reported increases in rabies post-exposure prophylaxis — or problems with how those treatments were administered.

Pharmacy data through September 2 showed an estimated 33% increase in rabies vaccine use and a striking 76% increase in human rabies immune globulin use compared with the same period last year.

Rabies remains one of the deadliest infectious diseases known: once clinical symptoms appear, it is nearly always fatal. The good news is that infection can be prevented when appropriate post-exposure treatment is given before symptoms begin.

The CDC advises anyone bitten, scratched or potentially exposed to a rabid animal to wash the wound thoroughly and seek medical or public-health guidance promptly rather than waiting for symptoms.

🚨 YOU DIDN'T RESCUE THE CAT. YOU PICKED IT UP.
I'm getting tired of seeing, "I rescued this cat, but I can't keep it! Someone needs to come get it ASAP!"

And then everyone applauds.

"You're an angel!"
"Thank you for saving that baby!"

Hold on a damn minute.

You picked up a cat, immediately made it someone else's responsibility, and somehow walked away wearing the superhero cape.

Meanwhile, an already overwhelmed rescue is expected to find space, pay the vet bills, provide food, arrange transportation, and find that cat a home.

You got the applause. Someone else got the responsibility.

Let me be clear. Not everyone can keep cats, and asking for help is absolutely okay.

But there's a difference between asking for help and dumping the entire responsibility on someone else while congratulating yourself for being a hero.

Help find a foster. Help with transportation. Help with vet expenses. Stay involved. DO SOMETHING.

Rescues are not magical dumping grounds with unlimited money, space, and time.

Rescue isn't about who gets the credit. It's about who does the work.

So please, stop confusing picking up a cats with actually rescuing one.

You don't get to wear the cape when someone else is doing the rescuing.
