We need your help CBCR Family!!!

Remember Mama Willow??? She came to us with a terrible spinal injury, severe diarrhea and malnutrition, and FIVE tiny kittens she was struggling to keep alive! She was in such bad condition that initially we thought we might have to consider euthanasia and bottle feed the kittens.

Luckily, her dedicated foster (with LOTS of help from our CBCR team) was able to turn things around! After heaps of high quality food, hours of physical therapy, and LOTS AND LOTS of baths, Willow has gained strength, and although one leg isn’t functional, her other affected leg continues to gain strength. She motors around the foster room with her babies, and races to her foster for treats and snuggles! She has gained 1.5pounds of much needed weight in the last few weeks. Her babies are also thriving in foster care!

Next week, we will move forward with the next stage of Willow’s recovery…amputation of her bad leg. We’ve been trying many strategies to keep her bad leg out of her way, because it frequently trips her up and causes issues in the litter box. So we know her mobility will only improve once it’s removed.

But surgery is expensive! We need your help to pay for Willow’s surgery. She’s come such a long way! Even a few dollars towards her surgery helps us care for Willow, her babies, and other future cats in need. Please consider donating today to help move Willow one more step towards her forever home and adoption.

We are so proud of how far Willow has come! Please help her continue her journey with CBCR!!!

Congratulations to the Shreks This big family said goodbye to their foster earlier this week as they made their way to the Cattery. Dragon, Cookie, Felicia, Donkey, Merlin, and Farkle have officially graduated. These guys are ready for their individual happily ever after!

Princess Fiona and Fergus stayed back for another week because they were just a little under weight. Don’t worry though, Donkey made them some waffles before he left to help them put on the extra ounces.

Their foster said they were such an amazing group of kittens. Merlin was her sidekick and shadow but they will all be missed. Who doesn’t love a little sidekick!?

If you are interested in meeting and potentially adopting one (or two) of these little cuties please email the Cattery at: [email protected] to request an adoption appointment!

Aloe, Agave and their brother Yucca were born behind a local office building. Their mom had several previous litters where none of the kittens had survived. One of the tenants reached out to us because Yucca was unable to use his back legs, and was dragging them around on rough outside terrain.

We didn’t have a foster who could take a paralyzed kitten so we partnered with another rescue who took in Yucca, while we squeezed Aloe and Agave into one of our foster homes. They all initially had severe diarrhea. Yucca passed away from this after some initial encouraging improvement with physical therapy. Luckily, with multiple antibiotics and treatments, Aloe and Agave survived. We were also able to fix mom and release her back at her home.

These sweet succulents have thrived in foster care! They are both so adorable! Aloe is a gorgeous panther (with the tiniest white top on his tail) with a big purrsonality! Agave is a bit shy but sooo sweet. Both love cuddles and scritches.

If you’re interested adopting Aloe or Agave, email [email protected] for an adoption appointment.

Meet Banshee, Zombie, and Siren! They are our newest little monster mashup kittens!

A Good Samaritan had found three kittens and decided to take them home and keep them safe until she could get them into a rescue. She reached out to us asking if we were able to take them, and since we had an available foster we gladly accepted them.

Banshee and her sister Siren have been practicing memorizing the lyrics to the mewsic song Monster Mash but Zombie just kinda groans the words, he would much rather practice his awesome kitty stretch mewve’s as opposed to listening to Banshee screaming (she can’t hold a note) or Siren since she just has a way of getting him to do what she wants. Last time he listened to her sing he ended up paws deep in the kitty pool… well it was just the water dish but still!

Regardless of all their adorable behavior they will still have to endure deworming, flea meds, and parasite treatments. They argued that those pests were their friends but we aren’t buying it. They gotta go!

Once quarantine is complete and these little terrors become big scary cats, they will be available for adoption. Do you need a new Boo???

🎼They’re sleepy and they’re tricky,
Playful and sometimes picky.
They’re all together prickly
Meet The Cattams family. 🎶
Fester, Gomez, Wednesday and Pugsley.

We previously did some trapping of what we thought were two females and a male cat. We were able to trap two of the cats but the 3rd cat had eluded our efforts. Well, fast forward two months and we received a message that the third cat was back and it had kittens at the neighbors vacant house.😳

We went to check on the kittens and the mom. Momma was very feral and quickly took off. We didn’t want to pull the kittens if they were too young, but after leaving some food down they wasted no time eating it, so we decided to take them into foster care.

The kittens are doing great and adjusting to their fosters home. They will be in foster care until they are 8 weeks or at least 2 pounds.

As for momma, she will be fixed so she never has to worry about having kittens in an unsafe environment.

Congratulations and may the force be with Obi-Wan. This little guy graduated foster care this week and will soon be ready for his next space adventure… adoption day at the Cattery!

Obi-Wan is a super playful Jedi. Purrfect for just about any person or family. He got along with his foster’s cats after a few days of just observing them. He loves plush light sabers and anything that he could chase. When it’s time to nap he likes lying with his humans or curling up on the closest cat bed or blanket. He also loves to let you know when it’s time to eat and has never skipped a meal. It takes a lot of energy to use The Force!

If you are looking for a playful cuddler then Obi-Wan is your guy!
For a meet and greet or possible adoption please email the Cattery at:

Happy fur-iday! In today’s CBCR’s Mews we are celebrating Hazard & Chase’s graduation day! They have successfully completed foster care and they quickly sped away to the Cattery.

These two boys are just as playful as their names. They were both singleton bottle babies that have had loads of fun playing and chasing each-other around. Their napping skills are off the rails! Both were so cute and cuddly together and loved to give their foster whiskery kisses. They can’t wait to meet their future furrever families during adoption day!

If you would like to meet and potentially adopt Hazard or Chase (or both!) please email:

Welcome Miss Independent and Mr. Brightside. Two of our newest bottle babies that are just like their names! Did we mention they are mewsically talented as well?

We were contacted by CCACS and asked if we could take the pair of kittens into our care. We didn’t hesitate and as their foster was picking them up you could hear them in the back singing “let meowt”. It’s a popular kitten song 😆

Miss Independent is Siamese and her brother Mr. Brightside is an orange and white tabby. The kittens are about two weeks old and are equally talented and adorable. They will spend several weeks in our care being fed around the clock, monitoring them for anything out of the normal and being treated for those pesky parasites.

We will keep you posted on their progress.

Look what we caught! They are all the latest buzz in our group. 🪰

Meet Firefly, Damselfly, Mayfly and Butterfly. Four siblings that are on their way to their best life!

We were contacted by a Good Samaritan who loves to help the community cats around their residence. She asked if we could help with a momma cat and her babies. The kittens were old enough and eating on their own so the plan was to have momma spayed and returned to her community and for the kittens to come into our care.

It took a total of six days but with lots of determination and dedication the lady and their foster were able to trap momma and her four kittens. Firefly was actually the last to be caught in our fly trap. He spent a few extra nights buzzing around before joining his siblings.

Please help us to continue raising awareness and educating others on the importance of spaying and neutering all of your family fur babies and TNR’ing community cats. Just spaying one female can prevent the birth of up to 24 kittens per year. Not to mention the fact that kittens can start reproducing as early as 4 months old.

Meet the Hat family! Momma Fedora and her five cute as cute can be kittens; Bonnet, Beanie, Beret, Stetson and Sombrero.

Momma Fedora had her kittens in a dog house in a local yard. The finders moved this sweet family onto the porch for safety. A few days later , the homeowners found her lying under the BBQ not moving. They think she may have been hit by a car. They carried her to her babies and reached out to us for help.

We didn’t have a foster home immediately available so they continued to care for her until one opened up. Luckily mom recovered quickly and does not seem to have any ongoing problems.

Her foster told us she is such a good momma and has been taking great care of her little hats. Only one looks like the mom, so we think it’s safe to say the others look like their dad.

For now we are just going to let momma do what she does best and let her care for her babies and rest. I’m sure with fall coming soon these kittens are going to make fall fashion picture purrfect.

If you find a nursing mom there are things you can do to help keep her and babies safe. If possible bring them inside…a bathroom or closet are fine! If you can’t bring them inside, providing a safe box or den for mom and babies can help protect them from the elements. Providing food and water nearby will mean that mom does not have to travel to find the essentials and reduces her risk of not returning. Nursing moms need lots of water and high calorie kitten food to keep up their milk supply. Reach out to rescues early for help! In kitten season we are inundated with requests. The earlier you reach out the more likely a rescue or shelter can make a plan for when kittens and mom are ready for separation.
