Messy Face Monday.

We have a busy week ahead of us with veterinary appointments. This week Knox, Gem, Estelle, Zara, Kate, & Echo all have appointments. And that’s just *planned* appointments because we know rescue always has plans of its own 🥲😂

It is going to be an expensive week. If you’d like to donate in any way shape or form, it is so appreciated. We have things on our registry for as low as $3. When you purchase food and litter, it helps us not have to pull from our medical funds. As a reminder we receive zero government funding & zero tax dollars. 100% of donations go to the cats.. we have zero paid employees and we are 100% volunteer ran. We can also provide receipts for tax purposes.

🚫 MOTHS being so high on my list of priorities isn’t something I could have ever predicted.

But these things are still here. I have TWO lights to attract them, one with a fan to suck them in, one with sticky pads. I have ELEVEN window sticky papers, and TEN triangle moth traps in the shed. & I am STILL seeing them fly around! 😭 frustrated is an understatement. I have the bags of purina that were
purchased from supporters in my garage currently but that’s not a long term solution. So ive added storage bins to our WALMART registry, so we can move food safely back in the shed.

Also got news that the distribution we have used is going to be halting operations in general, so we will really need to rely on our food and litter donations more than ever. I hope some other facility can pick up and run a smooth operation sooner rather than later. There are many rescues who will be struggling here soon 😥

If you’d like to help us purchase bins, they’re $10 and it will give us somewhere safe to store our food after this terrible moth/larvae outbreak 😭

Turns out Kate and Allie are NOT bonded 🫠 we have cameras on them 24/7 and they haven’t even laid together once 😂

Well. Kate is like morbidly obese. She has an appointment this week for lab work to rule out health reasons for her size. She can’t even groom herself properly 😭 if you’d like to contribute to her care, there are links below

🧡BRISTOL🧡

This handsome little guy was on the struggle bus for a while, but he is finally big strong & healthy! Bristol is 5 months old but you wouldn’t know it based on his size. He is a typical orange cat with his fun personality. He was raised around kids, cats, and dogs, so he’s used to the hustle and bustle of life. He is extremely playful & always looking for adventure 😂

Bristol is neutered, current on vaccines, microchipped, and ready for his forever family!

If you’re interested in adding Bristol to your family… send us a message for an application for adoption!

How freakin fun is this!? Feral Feline Friends of East Tennessee had a flash tattoo fundraiser today and OF COURSE I had to get one. And got a “matching” tattoo with one of my favorite vet techs 🥹🤍

Check out FFF, they are an amazing rescue in our area!

It’s almost cuddle weather (manifesting it, because I’m over the heat), adopt your snuggle buddy now 🍂

We are highlighting these 4 Sweetwhiskers today! They all have their own interesting backstories so read below to find out more!

🤎Oopsie: this boy was born to a mama cat who had a botched spay. She was actually pregnant with him & his sister at the time she was cut open and sewed back up, leaving the uterus and 2 kittens behind. 😳 he is a sweet boy who would love his own family.

🧡Chilly: she was part of a TNR group we worked on over a year ago. We brought her in to Sweetwhisker where she was adopted, and unfortunately returned due to personal life issues. She was then adopted to a couple, and when they broke up, the girl left her cats with the exboyfriend and he let them loose outside 😭 she was missing for quite some time before she was brought back to Sweetwhisker. She is one of the most friendly, well rounded cats i have EVER met. She loves cats, dogs, kids, men, women… you name it!

🩶 Sugar: sweet girl was also part of a TNR program. She raised her kittens and is now ready for her own family. She would prefer a quieter home due to having to being on high alert living on the streets for so long. She gives love nibbles and loves cheek scratches

🤍Scoop: she came to our rescue in active labor. She was turned away by our local shelter and needed a soft place to land during this difficult time. She ended up being pregnant with 10 kittens & delivering them very very shortly after arriving to our rescue. She then developed milk fever. Her mama journey ended sooner than expected but she is fixed vaccinated and ready to be someone’s whole world.

If you’d like to adopt any of these special Sweetwhiskers, send us a message for an application!

One thing about me…. is I’m gonna worry 🤣 Dugout came to me when her kittens were a few weeks old. I noticed her getting a belly and have been paranoid that she got pregnant again before coming to Sweetwhisker. So today she got an ultrasound and x-rays. Turns out, she’s just full of p**p and food 🤣🫠 my vet said I can’t free feed her anymore because she’s literally stuffed to the brim 😂 I am so glad it’s a food baby and not real babies!

Better safe than sorry right haha !

Built like a painting of a medieval cow…. We have Norma-Jean. We call her Bear or Bear-ica. Norma Jean is just her government name. She is Hattie’s mom and is beyond ready for her forever home. I let her stay with Hattie for a long time because I felt bad for her. But the older Hattie gets the more Bear is tormented by her.

Bear is approximately 2 years old, is a nub tail floofy (and chubby) girl. She loves to love you. She wants to cuddle and make biscuits on you. She’d probably be happiest without other cats, or with a very respectful cat. She is fixed & current on vaccines. If you want your own medieval cow, send us a message for an application !
