Another Feral Mama Spayed, Vaccinated & Safely Returned!

Another mama has been given a chance at a healthier, safer life! ❤️ After being humanely trapped and recovered from her procedure, she was spayed, vaccinated, and safely returned to her outdoor home.

Her kittens will remain in care until they’re old enough and ready to find loving forever homes. 🐱💕

Why do we do this? ❤️

Spaying and neutering is one of the most effective ways to prevent unwanted litters, reduce suffering, and help manage community cat populations humanely. By caring for mama cats and finding homes for their kittens, we’re making a difference one cat at a time!

But we can’t do it alone!

Rescue work takes time, supplies, veterinary care, and financial support. Donations of any amount help us continue trapping, spaying and neutering, vaccinating, and caring for these cats and kittens who need us.

Every dollar makes a difference, and every contribution helps us save more lives. If you’re unable to donate, sharing our posts helps spread the word and is greatly appreciated, too!

🙏 Thank you for supporting our mission and helping us make a difference, one paw at a time! 🐾❤️

Help Us Pay Off This Sweet Boy’s Surgery Bill!

We rescued this sweet boy from a shelter where he was at risk of euthanasia due to severe tail trauma and degloving. We couldn’t let his story end there, so we gave him a second chance at life!

He’s undergone multiple surgeries and recently had what we hope will be his final tail amputation. Thankfully, he’s doing great and is one happy boy!

We covered the cost of his surgery, but any donations toward paying off his medical bill would be greatly appreciated. Every dollar helps us continue rescuing and caring for other kitties who deserve a chance at a long, happy life.

🙏 If you can’t donate, please consider sharing! Thank you for helping us save lives, one kitty at a time. 🐾❤️

Another Successful Rescue!

We received a call about a mama cat and her four kittens who were being cared for by a kind caretaker. Mama had been hanging out under an abandoned car, trying to keep her little family safe.

Thankfully, we were able to successfully trap all five! ❤️

The four kittens are now safe in our foster system, where they’ll have the opportunity to grow, thrive, and eventually find loving forever homes. 🏡🐱

Mama was spayed, vaccinated, and treated for fleas. After recovering, she was safely returned to her original location, where her caretakers will continue to look after her.

Now, she can live out her life without the stress of repeated pregnancies and the struggle of raising kittens on the streets.

One mama cat, four kittens, and five lives changed for the better! ❤️🐾

Thank you to everyone who helps make these rescues possible. Every call, every trap, and every act of kindness makes a difference!

⚠️ SENSITIVE IMAGES — PLEASE READ & SHARE ⚠️

🐾 COYOTES ARE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. PLEASE KEEP YOUR CATS INSIDE!

Coyotes were here first. As we continue building and taking over their natural habitats, they have fewer places to go and fewer natural food sources. They are wild animals trying to survive, and our pets can become their prey.

💔 PLEASE STOP LETTING YOUR CATS ROAM! Your cat is not immune to a coyote attack, day or night. Please don’t wait until it’s too late.

🐈 ONE CAT’S SECOND CHANCE

We recently received a call about a cat crying at someone’s back door at night. We set a humane trap and successfully rescued him. He was friendly, unneutered, and had no microchip. He was likely someone’s pet who had been abandoned or left to fend for himself.

With coyotes killing cats and other animals in the area, we knew releasing him back wasn’t a safe option.

❤️ Thankfully, this sweet boy is now in our care! He has been neutered, vaccinated, and flea-treated, and we’re working to find him a loving home.

Sadly, so many friendly adult cats are overlooked because people want kittens. These cats deserve love and safety, too!

🚨 PLEASE BE A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER:
🐾 Keep your cats indoors.
🐾 Spay and neuter your pets.
🐾 Microchip your animals.
🐾 Never abandon a pet.
🐾 Never feed coyotes.

🙏 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR RESCUE!

We help the cats others leave behind, but veterinary care, trapping, food, and supplies cost money. Your donations and shares help us continue saving lives and giving these animals a second chance.

Coyotes are not the villains. They are surviving in a world we’re taking over. Our pets depend on US to keep them safe.

❤️ KEEP THEM INSIDE. FIX YOUR PETS. NEVER ABANDON THEM.

Please share! You could help save a life. 🐾

🐾 CAT RESCUE: EVERY LIFE MATTERS 🐾

When Turning Point Foundation reached out to us about a homeless encampment in Fillmore that was being evacuated, we knew we had to act quickly.

The people living in the encampment in Fillmore were being relocated, but unfortunately, nothing was being done to protect the cats left behind.

The Sheriff’s Department and Fire Department were preparing to clear the area, remove the bamboo, and spray chemicals to eliminate invasive plants. Once the encampment was cleared, these cats would be at serious risk of being poisoned, injured, or killed.

We couldn’t let that happen. ❤️🐈

We mobilized, organized, and got to work trapping the cats before it was too late. It took two weeks of dedicated effort, planning, and coordination, but we successfully trapped every cat at the location!

What we found was heartbreaking. None of the cats had access to good-quality food, and some even had spray paint on them. These cats deserved so much better, and we were determined to give them the chance at life they deserved.

All the cats were friendly! This meant we could do more than simply remove them from danger. We were able to get them spayed and neutered, vaccinated, and safely into the care of Paw Works for adoption.

This was a BIG project that required teamwork, organization, time, and dedication. But every bit of effort was worth it because these cats deserved a chance, too.

❤️ THIS IS WHAT WE DO.

We step in when animals are overlooked, when their lives are at risk, and when they have nowhere else to turn.

But we cannot do it alone.

🙏 CONTINUED SUPPORT AND DONATIONS HELP US KEEP VENTURA COUNTY CATS SAFE!

🐾 HELP BELLA GET THE SURGERY SHE NEEDS! ❤️

https://www.vcftr.org/donate-page

One of the most important things we do is help low-income and no-income community members care for their beloved pets. Every animal deserves love, care, and a chance to live a happy, healthy life, regardless of their family’s circumstances.

Meet Bella! 🐱 Bella lives in a homeless encampment, but she is deeply loved and cared for by her person. She has already been spayed and vaccinated, and when she suffered an injury to her eye, we stepped in to help cover her veterinary bills and get her the treatment she needed.

Unfortunately, despite treatment, Bella’s eye now needs to be surgically removed. This is an expensive procedure, and we need your help to make it possible.

❤️ We’re asking our community to come together for Bella. Every donation, no matter how small, will help us cover the cost of her surgery and give this sweet girl the chance to be comfortable and pain-free.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing Bella’s story. Every share helps us reach more people who may be able to help.

🐾 Please help us help Bella! Every animal deserves care, and together, we can make a difference.

Thank you for supporting our mission and helping us care for the pets who need us most. ❤️🐾
