Poor Guy's Cat Rescue

27/09/2025

Oh my Lord, I wasn't expecting so much food today (sorry, our lawn looks horrible, not much rain). I was already blessed enough to have you guys dig me out of a hole.

Sometimes I see things on Amazon and try to save them to a private list, a "me" list. They're almost always "ohhhh that's nice " things, objects I 99.9% of the time don't buy.

On occasion I add them to the cat list on accident.

There was this gorgeous (at least i think) shirt I saw. I did my usual "save it for later" thing. Someone sent it to me with the cat food and a light for the aquarium I accidentally added to the cat stuff.

Thank you so much for the cat food and for the (what i consider) gorgeous shirt. I didn't mean to add things for me, thank you so much for that.

Thank you all so much for the support.

I am so screwed. A lot of bad things happened this month, medical and otherwise.

Ive never been so overdrawn. I don't see how I'll recover.

It's near the end of the month again, funds and supplies are about gone. If anyone can check out the wishlists below and send a bit of food, it'd be super appreciated.

I went to the grocery store for soup. They had these big pillows for dogs in a display for $10.

I didn't tell them it was a dog pillow when I put it on the shelf.

I'm thinking if I can bring in $500-$750 extra a month, I can keep things under control. Once I've paid all of my bills, just the recurring bills that happen monthly (credit cards, loans, light bill, etc), this excludes cat supplies, gas for my vehicle, and food for myself, I have about $500 for the month.

Between my full time job, caring for mom, and the cats (plus my health, as my body wants to assassinate me), finding a second job is hard. I thought about maybe trying video content, live streaming on Twitch again maybe. Anyone have ideas for a side hustle?

Also, on a side note, my dumb self joined Facebook dating, as the lonely is eating my brain...keep having these stupid dreams where I'm all happy, sitting on the couch watching movies or grocery shopping with someone (yeah, not your typical guy dreams I guess, or not what we get credit for), then I wake up and wish it could've been nightmares instead. At least when you wake up from a scary dream you don't miss that.

I made sure in the profile to put "I run a rescue, at home. There are lots of cats, there will always be lots of cats. This is part of my life, a very important, non negotiable part of my life, I will not give up this for anyone".

Not sure why I keep daydreaming that I won't be alone forever, a decade without a hug. People only call me or text when their stuff is broken and they need help...which I wind up doing because that little voice in the back of my head says to.

I'd like to just be someone's world. I want to be one half of that senior couple you see that are still playful and happy with each other. It'd be so nice just to watch movies, maybe play a game, just do those little things.

Someone once told me they'd only stayed with me as long as they did because they felt sorry for me, that no one else would ever want me. I'm beginning to think they were right.

I'd recently had someone seem interested in what seemed to be at least a friend to hang out with. They kept saying they wanted to hang out. They'd go as far as to make plans, then say an hour later they were too busy and needed to cancel. Today, just casually brushed off in sort of a permanent manner and told they were dating someone.

I'd started being happy to wake up, not hating that another day had arrived. I'd found the energy to start trying to exercise again. I didn't walk around hunched over, but instead held my head up... now I just feel so embarrassed. The little voice in the back of my head must have picked up in something, it kept telling me to forget it. Every time that little voice said something and I've ignored it, I wound up regretting it.

I might have been single almost 10 years, but at least Spaghetti will give me kisses.

I received a message that $1000 had been paid on the vet bill. Someone also sent a gift card with a note telling me to go out and do something for myself.

Thanks to all of you who support. It really means a lot.

If anyone can help just a bit, we're at a negative balance again, made it almost this month. I get paid the 31st. It would be a big help, thanks so much.

Go to paypal.me/poorguyscatrescue and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

Sam was 1.2lbs when I got him from the kill shelter in 2016. He's close to 20lbs now.

Sorry for the grainy video, its dark in my room.

Campus Police called me about this little girl. She jumped in his vehicle with him. He'd been giving her some water from his water bottle.

I brought her back to my office and fed her some dry food until I get off.

This is how I watch tv.
