🌧️💔 WHEN IT RAINS, IT POURS… AND ANOTHER SWEET GIRL NEEDS US. 💔🌧️

🚨 URGENT FOSTER NEEDED — SHE NEEDS SOMEWHERE TO GO TODAY! 🚨

It feels like the foster requests just keep coming, and we are desperately trying to find safe places for every animal who needs us. Now, another sweet girl has found herself in a dangerous situation, and we need HELP. 🆘

This adorable girl was found outside, wandering and crying. A Good Samaritan couldn’t bear to leave her there, especially because she is incredibly friendly, affectionate, and trusting of people. 💔

She appears to be an older kitten or very young adult.

Right now, she is staying with the Good Samaritan’s brother-in-law, but he is not allowed to have pets in his apartment. She needs somewhere safe to go TODAY. They are actively trying to find her a placement and are willing to transport her to a safe place.

🐾 HERE’S WHAT SHE NEEDS:
❤️ A safe, temporary foster home
🏡 A place to decompress while she acclimates and gets vetting completed
🙏 Someone willing to open their heart and home

PLEASE, she cannot put this girl back outside. She is far too trusting of humans to be left to fend for herself, exposed to traffic, the elements, and the dangers that come with life on the streets.

We know everyone is stretched thin. We know the requests have been nonstop. We feel it, too. But this little girl is here, she needs us, and we are desperately hoping someone will step up for her. ❤️

🚗 TRANSPORT IS AVAILABLE. SHE NEEDS A PLACE TODAY!

📩 CAN YOU FOSTER? Please message us ASAP if you can offer her a safe place to land.

If you cannot foster, PLEASE SHARE. The right person may be just one share away.

🌧️ When it rains, it pours… but together, we can still be someone’s sunshine. ☀️🐾

Update: foster found!

🚨URGENT FOSTER NEEDED FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL MOMMA CAT! 🚨

Meet this petite, precious girl who is looking for a safe place to call home while she waits for her forever family! 🐱❤️

This sweet momma was found outside after her kittens had already been taken into foster care. Her babies are now 8 weeks old, weaned, and doing well, and now it’s her turn to get the care and attention she deserves! 🥹💕

She looks to be a year old or younger, is absolutely beautiful, and has already shown us just how sweet she is!

Thankfully, she is safe indoors with her finder for now, but we urgently need to find her a foster home. Her current situation is only temporary, and we want to make sure she has somewhere safe to go as soon as possible.

🏡 WE ARE LOOKING FOR A LONG-TERM FOSTER!

Here’s what you need to know:
🐾 She is petite, beautiful, and very sweet.
🐾 She has not received veterinary care yet, so she will need to be kept separate from resident pets until she has been vetted and properly acclimated to her new environment.
🐾 We are looking for a committed foster who can provide a safe, loving space for her until she is adopted.
🐾 ALL veterinary care and supplies are covered by our rescue! You provide the safe space and love; we take care of the rest. ❤️

Fostering an adult cat can be such a rewarding experience, and helping a single cat find her way to a forever home can make all the difference in the world. She has spent her time caring for her babies, and now it’s her turn to be cared for. 🥹❤️

🙏 PLEASE SHARE! We need to find this girl a foster home so she can begin her next chapter. If you can open your home to her, please reach out! Shes currently located in Paterson, and transport can be arranged.

📩 Interested in fostering? Message us or email [email protected].

Let’s get this sweet girl the second chance she deserves! 🐾❤️

A Good Samaritan reached out after finding this tiny kitten outside and in danger of being run over. They rescued this baby from the street, but unfortunately, they cannot keep them.

This sweet baby is safe for the moment, but we desperately need a foster home to step up so they don’t end up back outside. 💔

🚨💔 ANOTHER EMERGENCY — ABEL NEEDS US NOW 💔🚨

When it rains, it pours. Just one week after the overwhelming veterinary bills for Whisp, we are facing another unexpected emergency today, this time for our sweet Abel.

After everything Abel went through earlier this year, we are so grateful that he has been safe, loved, and doing well in his foster home. His urinary crystals have always been something we’ve had to carefully manage, but recently he had been doing really well on his urinary diet with no issues.

Unfortunately, today his foster noticed blood in his urine again. He was taken to the vet immediately, where his urinalysis showed that his urine was mostly blood. 💔

He also had two X-rays to rule out urinary stones. Thankfully, no stones were seen. 🙏 However, crystals can be more like sandy material and may not show up on X-rays, so his urine has been sent to the lab for further analysis. We should have those results by Thursday.

For now, Abel received a Convenia injection, which will remain in his body for approximately 14 days, as well as Depo-Medrol, an anti-inflammatory injection, to help reduce inflammation. 🙏🧡

Now we wait for his results and hope these medications help him feel better. 🐾

But with another unexpected vet bill so soon after Whisp, we really need your help. If you are able to donate toward Abel’s care, we would be incredibly grateful. Every donation helps us continue saying YES when these animals need us.

💛 WAYS TO DONATE:
Venmo: Yellow Brick Road Rescue NJ
Zelle/PayPal: [email protected]

And if you can’t donate, please share Abel’s story. A share can make just as much of a difference. 🧡

Please keep our sweet Abel in your thoughts while we wait for his lab results. 🙏🐾

We saved him once. We’re going to keep fighting for him. 🧡

🐾 UPDATE ON WHISP! ❤️

Whisp made it through surgery! 🥹❤️ His eye was successfully removed, and he was also neutered. He is estimated to be about 9 weeks old.

Unfortunately, we also received some difficult news about his remaining eye. There is a significant amount of scar tissue growing on it, and he is already approximately 80% blind in that eye. The damage is permanent, and there is a possibility that Whisp could eventually lose the remaining vision in that eye and become completely blind.

Our vet is prescribing a steroid ointment to try to help his remaining eye and hopefully preserve the vision he does have. ❤️‍🩹

But despite everything this tiny baby has been through… he is doing AMAZING. 🥹

Whisp is back at his foster home and acting like he didn’t just have major surgery! He’s eating, playing, and being his normal sweet self. He is such a happy, loving little kitten despite everything life has thrown at him. ❤️

Once Whisp is fully healed, he will need a very special forever home, one that understands he may eventually become completely blind and is willing to give him the love and patience he deserves.

And one thing is especially important: Whisp LOVES other cats! 🐱❤️ We would love to find him a home with another friendly cat who can help guide him and be his companion.

We also want to take a moment to say THANK YOU. We have received an overwhelming amount of love and support for Whisp, and we are so incredibly grateful for the army of supporters standing behind us. ❤️ Your donations, shares, messages, and encouragement mean more than you know.

Whisp’s medical journey isn’t over, and we currently have other medical bills and animals in our care who need help too. If anyone would like to continue donating toward Whisp’s ongoing care and our other medical expenses, we would be incredibly appreciative. Every dollar truly makes a difference. 🐾❤️

Thank you for helping us give Whisp the chance he deserved. We can’t wait to see what his future holds. 🥹❤️‍🩹

🚨 URGENT: WHISP NEEDS YOUR HELP 🐱💔

Meet Whisp, a tiny 3-month-old kitten who has already been through more than any baby should.

The first photo is Whisp the day he was found and surrendered at a veterinary office. The second photo is Whisp now, one month later. ❤️‍🩹

He was so small and fragile, with his eyes in terrible condition. We immediately took him in and started treatment with eye medications and antibiotics.

His eye has improved, but unfortunately it is still severely enlarged and his pupil remains extremely dilated. Our vet has determined that eye removal is now the safest option for him.

🏥 Whisp is scheduled for eye removal AND neutering this We desperately need your help to get Whisp through his surgery. ❤️

🐾 $5 helps.
🐾 $10 helps.
🐾 $25 helps.
🐾 Every share helps.

Our goal is $500 by Thursday. If you are able to donate anything at all, we would be incredibly grateful. And if you can’t donate, PLEASE SHARE! Getting Whisp’s story in front of the right person could make all the difference.

We promised this little boy that we wouldn’t give up on him. Now we need your help keeping that promise. 🥺❤️

Please help us give this sweet baby the pain-free life he deserves. 🐾❤️‍🩹

One year ago, Eve’s world changed forever. 💔

After her owner unexpectedly passed away, Eve and her brother were surrendered to the shelter. Thanks to Eve’s microchip from our rescue, we were able to bring them back into our care. What we didn’t know at the time was just how much pain Eve had been silently living with.

She was suffering from severe stomatitis and was unable to eat comfortably. After months of veterinary care, love, and healing, Eve underwent a full-mouth dental extraction.

Today… she’s a completely different cat. 🤍

✨ Healthy
✨ Pain-free
✨ No medications
✨ Fully vetted
✨ Around 5 years old (still just a baby!)

The only special care Eve needs is an all-wet, soft food diet—and trust us, she doesn’t mind that one bit. 😻

Now all that’s missing is a family of her own.

Eve is a gentle, beautiful girl with striking blue eyes who deserves the peaceful life she was denied for so long. Her ideal home would be:
🤍 A quiet, calm environment
🤍 Someone patient who will let her settle in at her own pace
🤍 A home with calm cats or mellow dogs
🤍 No young children, as she’d truly thrive in a quieter household

After everything she’s endured, we know the perfect person is out there. Someone willing to give her the time, love, and understanding she deserves. Once Eve knows she’s safe, we have no doubt she’ll reward you with a lifetime of love.

📍Eve is being fostered in Nutley, NJ.

Please help us share Eve’s story. Her happy ending is still waiting… and we know it’s only a matter of time before the right person falls in love with those gorgeous blue eyes. 💙🏡

Interested in adopting Eve? Send us a message or email us [email protected]
