Giving Tuesday is an annual day to celebrate the gift of compassion and generosity of causes that people care about. It’s a chance for money to be raised so that causes may continue to make an impact.

This post however is not about money but rather to celebrate Giving Tuesday in the hopes that someone special will give the gift of compassion and generosity to a senior feline who is still desperately looking for her forever home. It’s her turn to be showered with love.

Sweet Morrissa is a beautiful healthy senior girl who was rescued after living outside a local TV station for 12 years. She is a true lap kitty who enjoys cuddling and sleeping with her foster mom! She will gently nudge your hand with her soft nose or paw to encourage more pets. Morrissa enjoys climbing on her cat tree and playing with her toys. She is looking for a quiet home, preferably by herself, where she can be doted on and enjoy her senior years in style!

She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines. Please reach out to us to schedule a time to meet Morrissa. Be the one to make the forever impact in Morrissa’s life.

We are now solely a foster based rescue so if you would like to donate to us, thank you, we would appreciate that. And we would love to hear from you if interested in fostering. Help us help more.

It’s been four years since my girl Waters has been running free among the angels. Not a day goes by that I don’t feel her comforting presence all the while still running lead over my earthly pack

I didn’t know it back then on that fateful September 29th day of 2012, how much she would impact my life and how she inspired me to formalize my passion and start this rescue. I mean I’ve been helping cats in some capacity for the last 14 years when my firstborn Enzo showed up on my doorstep injured, but nothing like what the last four years have been.

I had finished at CrossFit. I was stopped at Derenne and Waters. She was across the street. Hunkered down. But out in the open. As I approached her, she stayed. She was dirty and skinny and couldn’t really straighten out her back legs to stand up. But she was grateful for the pets and food. Her eyes told of her sadness but I was in love. Owner of property approached me and asked if I would take her as she had spent her life getting beat up by other cats from down the street. I happily obliged. I didn’t have her long but I know now she had been waiting for me.

And so it began. Unknowingly. My love for helping those cats discarded. Abandoned. The weak. The injured. The ones who have run away from unforgiving humans. It’s a privilege to provide them an environment of love and safety. And ultimately, to trust humans again.

There are many of us out there doing this work we call rescue. Not for money. Not for attention. Not because we have time on our hands. But simply to help these kitties have a better life whether it’s TNVR or bringing them inside to find their real forever home.

Thank you to all of you that are doing this work. Thank you to those that have adopted from Waters Cat Rescue and before that. I know Waters guides me and keeps this all in perspective. And I finally realize, change is happening all around us and that embracing change is the best path forward even if it’s not clear or unknown.

Thank you my dearest Waters for gifting yourself to me. I celebrate you everyday.

Our rambunctious yet chill boy Brio went home last week with his BFF wrestling buddy Benny!

This sweet guy was dumped late March in one of our cat colonies that we manage; hiding under some bushes and meowing very loudly to make sure he didn’t get left behind. AGAIN. He was about eight weeks old when rescued which has not stopped him from being the life of the party! He was graciously fostered by where he learned his best wrestling moves on his foster felines and doggies. We are so excited he has a new brother to enjoy life with! Congratulations Brio!

And a special thank you to for fostering and loving him unconditionally and providing him the perfect environment to help him trust humans again.

Sweet sisters Nova and Nori were adopted last week after only two short days! These girls have settled in beautifully to their new home and are already enjoying cuddles with their humans.

It is important to understand their backstory. In March 2022, Nova and Nori (their former names have intentionally been omitted), were adopted from our rescue. They were five months old. After more than four months, they were returned to us because they were lap kitties and too affectionate. In the way while doing projects on the floor. Their previous owners thought they would outgrow these behaviors. While we understand that life happens, it is important to remember that pet adoption is a lifelong commitment. A kitty’s personality may change once it becomes comfortable in a home with its humans and it’s our expectation that their humans will be accommodating to them.

We are thrilled that Nova and Nori have found their furever home! Girls, the best is yet to come!

Adoption Spotlight!

Sweet boy Lincoln was another one rescued from the streets of Savannah after neighbors contacted a local rescuer. After spending about two months in foster getting love and care, Lincoln found his furever home!

Here is his story direct from his rescuer/foster:

“He was described as a tiny, affectionate kitten who was going from house to house looking for hugs or food.

No one could or would take him.

The two guys who texted me said, "tiny kitten, we can't bring him in, we don't want another flea infestation but he's really affectionate."

One of the guys put him in the trap & ordered neuter vouchers and said come get.

No one wanted responsibility for him.”

A big thank you to his rescuer/foster for taking yet another in when the inn was already full!

Happy 1 Year Adoption Pearl!

We received the following message from Pearl’s human family!

“Hi Jimi! It’s Pearl’s adoption anniversary today (July 27), so she wanted to let you know that she is happy (and silly). She’s the youngest and smallest member of the pack but is 100% in charge. Thank you so much for helping us bring her home!”

Remember Pearl’s story back in December 2020, when she escaped from her previous owner immediately following spay surgery with a cone still around her neck. At the time, our rescue did not know that a buckle collar was interlaced with the cone making it extremely difficult for her to eat and drink. Our rescue worked continuously for 129 days to trap Pearl and get her the medical attention she needed to nurse her back to health and get her ready for adoption.

Thank you for the update Pearl! We are so happy to see you living your best life!

Sweet girl Callie went to her furever home earlier this week and has quickly made herself at home. Her new mom shared that she is exploring her new home, playing with toys and getting along great with her three feline siblings. She even spent her first night snuggled up on the bed!

Callie’s back story is that she was found malnourished and all alone in downtown Savannah. She was very shy and she still is but in an endearing way and she learned very quickly to trust her foster mom. That she was finally safe. Callie’s road to adoption could not have happened if it weren’t for fosters willing to open up their heart and home and time. We are so grateful for her foster mom!

Congratulations Callie! We are so happy for your new adventure!

Another Adoption Highlight!
Sweet boy Theo found his furever home 5 months after being rescued last Christmas from one of our managed colonies! Once inside, he was treated for an upper respiratory infection and ringworm. Theo spent several months with his patient foster because he was quite shy and unsure of humans. He did, however, love other cats and enjoyed being the little brother to his feline foster siblings. Once at Pounce Cat Cafe he adjusted quite well and loved playing with the other cats and kittens! We are so happy to share that Theo was adopted and will continue his role as little brother to his feline sibling Romeo who was adopted from us last December. In fact, Theo was rescued on the very same day that Romeo was adopted. Crazy, yet meant for them to be together! He has settled in nicely at his new home. He loves cuddling with his mama and Romeo and he also enjoys watching his mama when she works on art pieces. He knows that he is handsome because he is often caught admiring himself in the mirror! We wish you a lifetime of happiness sweet Theo!

Looking for something fun to do this holiday weekend? Come celebrate the red, white and blue with us as we still have 4 sweet felines at Pounce Cat Cafe looking for their furever homes! Be sure to book a reservation this 4th of July weekend to meet and adopt one of these playful firecrackers! We have a feeling they will make your heart beat red, white and blue!

Cooper: Y’all, Cooper is still waiting for his family! He has been at Pounce almost two months. At just a year old, he is a super sweet boy. He can be a little shy at first but once he warms up, he’s the sweetest and most affectionate guy who loves to cuddle and chase toys. Cooper lived most of his life outside and was sadly burned with acid when he was a tiny kitten. He underwent laser surgery to repair his skin and now you can’t even tell he ever had any injuries. He is such a resilient and wonderful lil guy. He would love to have another feline companion to hang out and play with.

Quincy: Quincy was found hungry and wandering around a dark parking lot late one night. As soon as he was brought inside, he just melted into his rescuer’s lap and started making biscuits. He’s about 10 months old and responds when you call his name. He is confident and knows what he wants! He would do best in a home with another feline companion or two who has just as much energy as him. And when he tires, you’ll find him snuggling up on your lap.

Brio: This sweet guy was dumped late March in one of our cat colonies that we manage. He was about eight weeks old when rescued yet that hasn’t stopped him from being the life of the party! His foster said he is fearless yet easy going and loves playing with other cats as well as dogs, and big dogs at that. Super active and loving at the same time! He’s now five months and ready for his forever home. He would do best in a home with multiple furry animals and especially with a feline companion that he can romp around with. Oh and LOVES treats!

Callie: This sweet girl was rescued in April from the streets of Savannah and has quickly blossomed into one of the sweetest girls ever. In her foster home, she acted like a mama to the kittens in her room, cleaning them and playing with them all the time. Callie loves playing with fluffy balls and wand toys. And beware, she also enjoys playing with your toes! Initially, Callie can be shy, but once comfortable, will cuddle up right next to you in any spot she can squeeze into and quickly become your best friend and shadow. Callie likes other cats and dogs and, while in foster, she was often found snuggling with them.

Another Adoption Highlight:

Meet our very own Beverly Hillbillies…. Jed and Wilburn! These sweet yet malnourished boys were rescued from very poor conditions in March after being listed on Craigslist. They were placed in a loving foster home for 2 months! Thankfully, a sponsor stepped up and provided financial support to get these adventurous boys neutered/vaccinated/microchipped and ready for adoption! They struck gold with their new family and have truly gone from rags to riches! Best wishes sweet boys!

Ya’ll, we realized that we had not shared that Forrester was adopted back in May! Here is his story:

Back in March our rescue received a phone call from a concerned citizen about a cat located in a wooded area. We immediately sent out a rescue team and were able to locate him. We decided to name him Forrester! We knew his sweet personality would attract the hearts of a perfect family.

During his time with our foster, we quickly realized just how funny this boy was. He loves to sit with you whether you are enjoying your morning coffee or on the throne! He absolutely loves crinkle balls and goes berserk over a Q-tip. And let us not forget this boy can eat an entire can of Fancy Feast in one sitting!

After a couple of months decompressing and getting medical care, he was placed at Pounce Cat Café. Forrester quickly won the hearts of everyone! He loved to sit on peoples’ laps and welcomed everyone to the cat café. Within a week, he quickly made himself at home on the lap of a wonderful woman and she knew that he belonged with her. They were perfect for each other! And as you can see from the last two pictures, he has settled in seamlessly!

We know that it doesn’t matter where you came from, it's where you’re going that counts. This sweet boy is living proof of that!!!! Congratulations Forrester!!!

Hi! My name is Morrissa, and I’m about 13 years young. I’ve spent the last 12 years living outside a local TV station. Somehow, even with all my years of hard work, my TV career never took off. However, I was so happy when a kind woman from the animal rescue came and picked me up to bring me to a safe and happy life indoors. I have to say that I'm loving life as an indoor kitty! I enjoy cuddling on the couch and sleeping with my foster mom. I know when breakfast and dinner are served, and I always wait patiently for my turn to be fed. My favorite treats are Greenies, and my foster mom always tops off my food with them. I also never knew how much fun climbing the cat tree and batting around toys could be until recently! My foster mom says my fur is so soft now and that I'm a very special girl. I’m a true lap kitty who loves being petted, and, if you stop too soon, I will gently nudge your hand with my soft nose to encourage more pets! I would prefer to be the queen of my forever home, but I have accepted my two feline foster siblings as long as they don't get too close to me and respect my personal space.

Please consider opening your heart and home to me. I am a senior girl, but I have a lot of love to give and look forward to sharing plenty of years with my special someone!

Morrissa is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccines and flea medication. She is looking for a quiet home where she can be doted on and enjoy her senior years in style! Please message or email us to schedule time to meet in her foster home!
