Bella's Enduring Hope Cat Sanctuary

Bella's Enduring Hope Cat Sanctuary Because every cat deserves a loving home. It was in October 2022, that the program expanded to a community cat project.

Since 2021, the founder has been taking in stray cats/kittens; vetting them and finding loving homes for as many as possible. Since that time 46 strays have been trapped/neutered/returned (TNR), all within a close radius of our facility. Kittens (54 so far) stemming from un-neutered adults in the community have been taken in, dewormed, vaccinated, each FIV/feline leukemia tested, spayed/neutered,

nursed back to health when necessary and socialized in the hopes of being adopted. Unfortunately, not all of the kittens taken in are adopted, giving rise to what is now Bella’s Enduring Hope Cat Sanctuary. These cats now have a cage-free home to live and play until that special family comes along to adopt them into their furever home. The program is hoping to expand to other communities in the future; but we have limited resources and must sadly focus on those currently in our care, prior to taking in others. As a nonprofit, the sanctuary runs exclusively on donations to cover all expenses from cat litter to vet care.

Look at these whiskers!!!!🥰 Remember the post that introduced you to Bowser, from one of the colonies we’re working on? I said we were going to try to reunite him with his siblings, ring a bell? Well here is one of two; Ollie! Since the two had been separated for so long, we needed to keep them apart to be sure Ollie didn’t have anything he could pass on to his brother. Both go to be tested and neutered on Monday, so fingers crossed we can reunite them shortly thereafter!
What a handsome little boy! Still one more to trap, if we can!

This handsome fella is Charlie Brown! He earned his name as a member of our cat colony because the poor boy was seen at our feeding stations nightly, trying to make friends with other colony residents, only to be turned down by all. 😞
Charlie then decided to direct his charms at the condo girls. After repeated moments of snuggling up to them from the opposite side of the catio fence, he won them over (and us)! Charlie isnt exactly socialized at this point (he tolerates you at close range, but do not touch) something that will just take time and patience.
We were finally able to get him to the vet for testing and start his vaccines (a very trying day, to put it mildly)!
Charlie is now living with the girls on a permanent basis! He is; however, one of our cats in need of special medical attention. F***l testing couldn’t determine the reason behind his constant bout with diarrhea which began before he even joined the condo. So, now he’s on a special diet cat food to try to remedy the situation. Unfortunately, since he is sharing the condo with 6 ladies, they too are on the special diet.🤦🏻‍♀️💰
Fingers crossed we can get a handle on this and help him beat whatever is going on inside. 😻🙏

Remember the kittens that were abandoned in a cardboard box at the Christian School in Avis? Well, take a look at them now! Eyes wide open and on the move! We’re far from the point where we can relax, but our foster is certainly giving it her all!! Keep sending good vibes our way!

No it’s not Garfield in disguise! This is Goose, one of our special needs kitties this year. We have been struggling with this boy for a while now. Even though his 3 brothers and sister are packing on the weight, he has been losing it. 😞
The vet thinks he possibly has free floating fluid in his abdomen and/or intestines. His body appears to be attacking his red blood cells all the while still trying to replace them.
Goose has been on several medications and a special diet and has now started increasing his weight by about an ounce/day over the past few days!
Fingers crossed this brave boy can beat this!

UPDATE: Our two kittens are now in the care of an experienced bottle-feeder! Thank you all for the help and suggestions! Watch for more updates, coming soon to a page near you!

WE DESPERATELY NEED AN EXPERIENCED CAREGIVER, with knowledge of bottle feeding, or a nursing cat mom to hopefully place two 3-day old kittens with.
These sweet, defenseless babies were placed in a cardboard box and abandoned at the playground of the Christian school in Avis.
These kittens did nothing to deserve this treatment. Please help us make it right! Message us if you can help!

We had some non-TNR kitties join one of our colonies, and see what resulted. New to the sanctuary is Bowser (not my idea🤣). He’s an estimated 10-weeks old and thankfully, in fairly good health. We’ll be attempting to unite him with his siblings, if all goes well. Welcome to your new life, Bowser!
