We are absolutely beyond devastated at the horrific news regarding Happy Cat Sanctuary. Chris Arsenault, the sanctuary’s founder, has perished in the fire that broke out at the sanctuary along with many cats. We are in a state of shock and are praying for those cats who survived. We also pray for Chris and those who perished. Chris loved all of his cats and dedicated his life to them. The rescue community has lost a beacon of hope for cats who depended on him. Chris always helped in more ways than just the sanctuary. We mourn this loss and pray for eternal peace for Chris and his beloved cats.

Please consider helping by fostering a pet from Animal Welfare League of Charlotte County during the storm that’s headed their way. They’re under evacuation orders and need temporary placement for 205 pets still. If you’re in the area and in a safe zone please consider offering your home to a foster pet in desperate need. This is a matter of life and death.

Phoebe Update

Sweet Phoebe was able to be taken to her foster home after a respiratory scare. At this time what we know is that Phoebe has moderate kidney disease. Situational stress can affect her heart and exacerbate her kidney disease condition. Phoebe will need to eventually visit a cardiologist to make sure that her heart murmur won’t be a detriment in the battle against her kidney disease.
Phoebe requires expensive food to support her kidney function. At this time we are not able to provide her with this type of food. A 12 day supply costs $64.56. We just don’t have the means to continuously provide her with the type of food that will support her kidneys. Additionally, continued monitoring of her heart and kidney function will be a large cost. She’ll need to visit a cardiologist every 6 months and internal medicine around the same.
The chances of Phoebe finding an adoptive home to cover her medical needs are dim. On top of that her age of 15 does make it likely she’ll never find someone willing to adopt her. So we’re left with taking care of her the best we can. We’re asking for 50 followers, to donate $5 per month to help us feed Phoebe the proper food for her ongoing care. Just $5 per month will make sure that she’s taken care of as best as she can be.
If you’d like to be one of her $5 per month sponsors please consider a donation via PayPal or Venmo where you’re able to set up automatic donations per month.

We’re additionally asking for help for her cardiologist appointment and her continued internal medicine care.

🆘 EMERGENCY 🆘

A couple of weeks ago we told of the plight of Phoebe, a 14 year old senior cat, who was given back to the rescue by her prior owner. Phoebe is now back under our care and preparing to be transported to her foster. However, early this morning as preparations were under way it was noticed that Phoebe has labored abdominal breathing. This is a medical emergency as it possibly indicates fluid accumulation from a probable undiagnosed heart condition.
Phoebe needs to go to an emergency hospital now. As fluid continues to accumulate her breathing will get worse and she will begin to feel like she’s drowning. Phoebe will need to be placed on oxygen and possibly have fluid tapped.
With too many emergency cases lately we just simply don’t have the funds to cover Phoebe’s needs. It being Memorial Day weekend will make an ER visit even more expensive. We need help for Phoebe right away. We do not have enough to even cover the walk in fee for an ER. Please consider a donation for Phoebe. We can’t help her without help. Please consider Venmo or PayPal as funds raised through social media platforms don’t arrive to us for a month and we need access to funds right away for Phoebe.

Update - no one has stepped up to help Cat and his owners will be bringing him to NYCACC tomorrow. We have one last day to help him.

🆘 EMERGENCY 🆘

Martha is puppy in our rescue who suddenly was very ill this morning. She began to have very bloody diarrhea, was in terrible pain, did not want to eat and was lethargic. She was rushed to the emergency hospital today where she thankfully tested negative for parvo but we don’t have a definite answer as to her problem.
Over the last few weeks our rescue has been hit very hard with medical cases and even though it was recommended she stay longer we just simply don’t have the funds. Her ER visit alone today was close to $1800 and we just don’t have the means to cover a prolonged stay. Martha was sent home with subQ fluids, antibiotics, and pain meds in the hopes that it’s a bad case of enteritis.
We’re begging for help at this point. If Martha were to decline we won’t be able to push further treatment. Our cards are maxed out, our funding is below red. We are in urgent need of help. Please consider a donation for Martha or some of the other medical cases we have at the moment.

Update #2 - Cat has found a home. 💖

Update - no one has stepped up to help Cat and his owners will be bringing him to NYCACC tomorrow. We have one last day to help him.

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY PLACEMENT SITUATION

Please share.

This chunky boy, approximately 5-6 years of age is scheduled to go to the NYACC this weekend. His family named him Cat and they’re no longer able to keep him due to personal circumstances. We’re trying to pull a Hail Mary and see if anyone would be willing to foster or is interested in adopting. The following is a profile from his current owner:

“In 2020, I rescued Cat when he was about 2 years old after he was abandoned by a family that moved out of state. What struck me immediately was his size (he's a big fella, roughly 20 lbs.) and how friendly he was. Once he's comfortable, Cat can be either calm or playful and is always curious. He likes to roam freely around the home with few restrictions and is easy to train. He’s not a big cuddler and doesn’t like being carried, but loves being stroked and petted. He enjoys sitting next to you on the couch or laying at your feet in bed. When I found Cat, I wasn't given much background information, so his age (5-6 years) is approximate. He’s neutered and up to date on all shots and vaccines as of May 2023. He also has not been microchipped. He is very temperamental and resistant under stressful conditions (i.e. hissing, biting, scratching), like when he needs to be placed in his carrier to leave the house. He should be given something to calm down before visits to the vet or groomer (I use a combination of melatonin treats and prescribed gabapentin).”

🆘 SENIOR ALERT - HELP NEEDED 🆘

Sweet and gentle 14 year old senior, Phoebe, is losing her home as her family is no longer able to keep her. Her former foster has graciously offered to take her back. Due to her age and a few health concerns, Phoebe will likely remain at her foster mom’s home for the rest of her life to enjoy her twilight years under the care of the rescue.
Phoebe is currently in Brooklyn but her foster mom moved to Virginia 3 years ago so we are asking for donations to cover her transport fees to get her to her foster. We’re also asking for help to cover her special dietary food necessities. We plan to assess her health once she gets to her foster but as of now we know she has early stage kidney disease and dental disease.
While it is sad when a senior pet loses their home, we’re grateful her foster mom has agreed to care for her for the rest of her life.
Please consider helping Phoebe go home and enjoy her twilight years in comfort.

FOSTER/ADOPTER NEEDED
A few weeks ago we asked you for help for a sweet and friendly girl, Sophie, who found herself living in horrible conditions under a dumpster. Sophie is now in need of a foster home or adoptive home.
Since being found trying to survive the streets, Sophie has now been fully vetted. She’s FIV/FeLV negative as well. She has recovered nicely from her spay and does not want to go back to living on the streets. With proper introductions, Sophie will likely get along well with other cats. Dogs unknown.
Sophie is very friendly and playful. She’s approximately 11 months old.
If you would like to meet Sophie or fill out an application, please send an email to [email protected].

🆘🆘 URGENT HELP NEEDED 🆘🆘

This little guy was found in this condition behind a beauty salon two days ago. He’s bleeding pretty profusely from both nostrils. He was taken to a vets office urgently yesterday and we’ve started some preliminary treatment but he is going to need much more very soon.
The truth is that we’re completely financially strapped. Lately we’ve been hit with several medical cases and we’re in a lot of debt. We really need your help to help this little one. We’re begging you to help him so that he has a chance. In the end we don’t fully know what’s wrong right now but he deserves a chance. Please help us by sending a donation for his care. We’ve named him Rocky.

Sweet Sophie is currently at the vet getting spayed and fully vetted. If you are able to open your heart and home to Sophie please message me or reach out to us at The No Kill Project. We are working super hard to make sure Sophie never has to sleep another night under an abandoned trailer . Thank you all for your continued support and for sharing her!

‼️‼️‼️PLEASE SHARE‼️‼️‼️

We call her Sophie ... She's only a baby ...

For approximately the past 10 months of her life she has lived on the streets alone. She is the sweetest little girl And way too innocent to have to live in the harsh outdoor elements. This is a plea to help us network to get her off the streets...

Sophie lives under an abandoned trailer in the back of a parking lot all alone. Always sitting next to the dumpster day after day waiting for someone to hopefully realize she's hungry.

Only 10 short months of her life she has managed to survive living on the streets weathering the storms , trying to hide from cold temperatures and trying to protect herself from other street cats that bother her and raccoons. She is just not cut out live that hard life ... Yet she remains so gentle.

She wants attention from everyone and we are doing everything in our power to help find her a home. We were able to secure Sophie very gently by putting her into a carrier and making an appointment for her to get spayed tomorrow. She will also get ear tipped.

This little girl has experienced sleeping in a warm cat bed for the first time and not under a cold dark dirty trailer. If anyone can open their heart or their home to help foster or even adopt Sophie please reach out. We would hate to have to release her after she recovers from her spay because she deserves so much more. It has been so hard to find foster homes or adoptive homes for cats but please help us network her so she doesn’t have to go back to living outside.

We only have a few days before she will be out back on the street if no one steps up to foster!‼️‼️
If you are able to foster or interested in adopting this beautiful little girl please reach out. We are doing everything we can to help this little girl but we cannot do it without your help!!!

Please share For Sophie 🙏🏼🐾🐾🐾

UPDATE ON CAT STUCK IN A TREE

She is safe!!

We hired a tree service company to help get her down. The cost was $400. We need help covering this expense as our rescue is currently drowning in debt but we couldn’t leave this cat to suffer up there any longer.

This poor cat is absolutely terrified, cold, and hungry. We will be bringing her to get checked for a chip and get checked out. We will provide her necessities at the moment. If anyone is able to help foster until owner found, please let us know.
This poor cat has been stuck in a tree for two days in the cold and rain. Trains speeding by right behind the tree have been very scary for her.

Please let us know if you can help watch her for a few days until owner found. Email [email protected]
