🐯 Tigger needs a home! 🐯

This sweet little old man is nothing but a lover. He craves attention from his person, and he will rub against you to get your attention when you're busy around him.

He seems to be okay around other cats once he settles into a new place. When moved to a new environment, he likes to hide and act defensively with other cats at first. But it didnt take long for him to change to wanting to make friends! We have not tested him with dogs, but I believe any calm animal that gives him some time and space to adjust would do fine with him. 🧡

Although nervous at first in new environments, he comes around quickly with a little encouragement. He is definitely obsessed with wet food and prefers it over dry food, although he'll nibble the dry. Whenever you're opening a can in his presence, he gets very excited and will reach for it with his little paws and mew. It's so cute! He also uses the litter box with no issues as well!

⭐️ Tigger is 15 years old. He is fixed and triple tested. He will receive updated vaccines before adoption.

💙 We love a good bromance! 💙

Chatter and Rocky are two precious senior boys being fostered by the wonderful Rachel Hernandez and her family.

Chatter is 14, and Rocky is 17. Both of these distinguished gentlemen unfortunately had to experience the untimely deaths of their original owners, moms that had loved them practically their entire lives.

Although they didn't come from the same home, they bonded almost immediately here with us. Rocky began by following Chatter everywhere, even vertically. At first Chatter didn't really like Rocky, but Rocky was not once ever deterred. He laid wherever he could that was close to Chatter, and eventually, he wore Chatter down.

I think Rocky knew Chatter needed a friend. Rocky had come to us with 5 of the other cats from his home, but Chatter came to us alone. Even though Rocky is FIV+, they are perfect together. And I'm forever grateful for Rachel giving them a place to stay together as long as they need. 😊

It's cats like Rocky and Chatter that really need the Cat Retirement Home Project. Senior cats, especially ones with medical needs and things like FIV, are way less likely to be rescued, and way more likely to be euthanized. When all they really need is a quiet, safe place to retire and be loved for their remaining years.

I'm so thankful to the wonderful human being that gave us our first donation towards the Cat Retirement Home! I know it'll be a long journey to bring it to life, but I have so many wonderful ideas on how to make it the best retirement home for cats possible. 💙

📣📣 Important Announcement 📣📣

Intake is on HOLD for the time being while we work on a new project that's very special to me.

I chose to focus my rescue efforts on seniors and special needs because I know how overlooked and underserved they are. Seniors, sick ones especially, seem to be less likely to be fostered or rescued locally. There is an overall serious lack of resources for these cats, and my spare bedroom is not enough space to help the amount of cats that need it.

In my spare room, I have too many long-timers to continue bringing more in. We are providing a home for Music, a young cat who has yet to be adopted despite our best efforts due to his dislike for other animals, as well as bonded pair, Shadow (4y) and Bee (7y), our feral tripod fella. I know these cats may never find a home, and we may have to be their home forever, and I'm okay with that. But it is space taken from helping more rescue kitties, and I have not had luck in finding fosters to offset the load.

So here is our solution! The Cat Retirement Home Project!

I've put together a comprehensive budget after speaking to a seller of portable buildings to get a general idea of pricing. In order to buy the building, insulate it, set it up for electricity, and dress it with cat necessities, the total cost is estimated at $7500. (I can share the typed out budget with anyone interested).

I have applied for grants with no luck yet and plan to continue to do so. I also will be working on fundraising and looking into business sponsorships. I'm going to work hard to make this a reality as quickly as possible, and I'm open to any fundraising ideas! 😊

I hate to close intake in the meantime, because it may take a long time to raise this amount of money, but all of my efforts have to be focused on this project if I hope to make it happen. It will be hard in the short term to ignore all the babies in need, but it will allow me to help much more in the long run.

Seniors that are sick or injured are often avoided due to the financial costs and the risk of being stuck with them for a long time. I understand the fear, but just like any other abandoned pet, they didn't choose their fate. They didn't ask to be tossed aside and forgotten, or to be dying alone on the street. And their lives matter as much as any other cute kitten or fancy cat. I firmly believe that. And with this Cat Retirement Home, I hope to provide a place where these seniors can hang out, relax, and wait for their forever. ❤️

‼️ Looking for homes for seniors! ‼️

There have been a ton of seniors showing up lately after being surrendered or abandoned. Many are in bad shape medically and need extra love and care. Some are just in need of a home to live out the last of their days.

Right now, our funds and space are extremely low! We want to help as many as we can, but we can't without support.

Currently, I have two seniors, two ferals, and a cat aggressive cat in my home. I've got them as spread out as I can, so there's no room to bring in any more. But there's always more in need of help!

Tigger (tabby) just needs a home to retire in soon. He's recovering from a URI, then he'll get the last of his vaccines. Hes FIV/FelV negative and neutered already. He's super sweet with people, just needs time to decompress and destress in any new environment.

Shermie (orange) is a serious medical baby right now. He has FIV, and is being treated for an inner ear infection. He is obsessively circling nonstop, only stopping to eat. He is not using his bed or his litter box. I also dont see him relax ever. I would love to find someone with experience to help this sweet boy, as I'm not sure how to help with the circling (if the treatment for his ears does not solve it). I just know he must be miserable. Unfortunately, it's hard to run a lot of tests and get xrays without the funds needed.

The black kitty appears to be a senior colony cat that was dumped on the finder's property. We would love to help her, but Tigger would need a home first, or we'd need a foster.

Thank you to everyone who supports what we do! Thank you to our friends and consistent allies, Blue and Michelle, who have donated and helped these boys get this far! ❤️

As the old saying goes, if you can't adopt, foster. If you can't foster, donate. If you can't donate, volunteer. 🙏

💙 Meet Shermie 💙

Shermie was taken to a vet clinic in Forest, MS after being found in terrible shape. The city officer's plan was to allow the vet to humanely euthanize him until Julie Clark stepped up and offered to vet him and find him rescue. Unfortunately, no rescues stepped up at the time, and Sherman spent 8 months confined in a small kennel at the vet's office, waiting.

Shermie is a blind senior. Being confined in such a small space for such a long time has been detrimental to his well being. Special needs babies like him don't belong in shelters or kennels. I'm so glad Julie reached out to us to help this boy.

With some amazing coordination between Julie and Alexis Bell, we were able to get him here to Lucedale today. I can't thank these ladies enough for driving so far to bust him out!

There is a lot working against this sweet old man. Not only is he an almost entirely blind senior, but he is FIV+. He also spins in circles, which we suspect to be behavioral as a result of his lack of sight and confinement. We hope time and love will help the kennel psychosis, and we want to make sure all his medical needs are met ASAP.

It's day 1 of a new life for Shermie. We are hoping for many many more!

❤️‍🩹 Sweet Tigger ❤️‍🩹

It's hard to imagine why anyone would surrender a 15 year old cat to the shelter. I know sometimes these cats lose their owners, and there's nobody to step up for them after. Then, while grieving, these cats have to deal with the confusion and the fear of being kept in a cage in a noisy shelter.

These are some of my favorite cats to help because after 15 years of loyalty and companionship, they deserve nothing but love and care at the end of their life.

Tigger will need a forever home once he's checked out and cleared by our vet. The best way to help these seniors is to consider fostering, adopting, or donating for their care. We desperately need more fosters to help more animals like Tigger.

Whatever life is left in him, he deserves to live to the fullest with a family that will love him until the end! 🙏

These kittens are not in the care of Lucky's Little Rescue.

These cuties need a good home! Please reach out to Jessica Goss Russell if you're interested.

Vet Reminders for Kittens:
Kittens often do better in pairs!
Remember that it's recommended for kittens to start vaccines around 6-8 weeks old and receive three to four boosters until they are fully vaccinated. They can be spayed/neutered at 3 months old or 3lbs. This is highly recommended because cats can have babies as young as 4 months old!

Both SNIPS in Vancleave and Southern Pines Healthy Pet Clinic offer extremely low cost spay and neuter for cats!

🧡 Tigger Update 🧡

The sweet old man we pulled from the Jackson County Animal shelter on Wednesday is already doing so much better.

He's decompressing in our spare bathroom for just a few days until he can be vetted. Soon after, we'll introduce him to Shadow and Bee 😊

But I do believe Tigger may need some bloodwork done! He's very thin and shows signs of muscle wasting even though he's eating wet food like a champ. He also seems to have some respiratory infection going on that needs to be addressed. We definitely need to make sure there's nothing underlying that he needs to be on regular medication for.

We still need to raise money for Tigger and Hughie to get their medical needs taken care of! If you can help out by just sharing, it is so helpful in getting the funding we need.

A special thank you to our friend, Blue, who always comes through for our kitties when they need it. Your donations are always so appreciated. 💙
