Petey the Kitty

26/07/2025

So suddenly Penelope and the babies are giving me a run for my money on the food that they like 🙃 on my way home I went out and bought Royal Canin mother/baby cat, tiki cat baby satchets, and some various other things. The babies absolutely DESTROYED the baby cat. Also, Penelope destroyed Meow Mix Chicken and Liver so that is on there as well. We also need more Breeder’s Edge formula!

So with that being said 😅

We have some new items we REALLY need for these growing babies off of our Amazon wish list:

*all of the items are marked “BIG NEED AS OF 7/26”

If you can help or share, we would all appreciate it so much 🩷🩷

Thank you everyone

When it rains, it pours 😭

This morning while I was changing out Penelope & CO’s play pen, I noticed one of Penelope’s babies having tremors in his back and front legs. He is able to get around but he has increased weakness in the front legs and puts his butt up in the air. But then he will also claw his way up to the top of the playpen 🙃 he did eat some gruel for me this morning.. I ran out to get some Karo syrup (to have on hand) and have already talked to my sweet friends at the urgent care- he will go this evening to be examined.

I know I have been asking yall for a lot of help lately and I feel terrible, but guys- I’m getting my butt kicked with everything going on. I keep trying to remind myself this is just a season and we will get through it.

Last night for Sardine thankfully was only $86 🩷 I’m dropping her f***l off today.

Nana will probably run me around $265 in the morning for her visit.

Tonight will hopefully not be too terrible for the orange baby.

If you can spare a literal $1 to help me put out these fires, it may seem silly or insignificant to you, but it all adds up and it absolutely makes all of the difference!

This morning I bought some more formula for the babies, large miracle ni***es (incase I need it for the orange baby) and FF wets for Penelope that she’s obsessed with. I try to utilize donated funds for vetting, new intakes, etc.

We could really use some litter! I put Dr. Elsey's back on our Amazon wish list, but we do use Target brand!

We also could really use Oxiclean as the babies are MESSY and I try to make sure everything is as clean as possible when I do laundry.

Penelope and her babies are going to be moving into our room this weekend so mom can start taking more photos to make their adoption pages on Petfinder!

Mom is feeling a little anxious about being able to cover all the costs of vetting everyone for their forever homes ($1305 minimum for 9 cats 🥲), so if you can help us in any way- donate (even $1 helps!), share, comment, or even send us love- we would appreciate it! 🩷

This little one is so miserable and it’s breaking my heart. Going to the emergency vet tonight.

Okay Crew.. since Sardine is going to his forever home next week, that means a spot is opening at the Inn.

One of my sweet friends reached out to me with concerns about an old cat that needs help in one of her friend’s neighborhoods.

Her name is Mamas and here is what I know so far:

The man who found her under a shed 10 years ago was in his 90s and passed away. She has been living as an indoor/outdoor cat ever since. Unfortunately, the family lost access to the house and Mamas was kicked to the curb outside permanently. She came running to my friend’s friend one day looking for food and water which she has been giving her for the last month- she even bought her a little cat house to help with the FL heat 🥺 Mamas was attacked a few weeks ago and her eye was completely swollen shut- it was tended to and looks completely healed thankfully. This old definitely needs medical attention. Her ears and face look rough (I have seen some videos) and she has moments of rapid breathing it seems.

She is estimated to be 11 years old. She doesn’t deserve to continue to live outside in this heat- especially also considering she is aging and possibly having some underlying medical issues. And suspectible to being attacked or of course, hit by a car 😞

But I need y’all’s help to make this happen😩

I need to get her to the vet, vaccinated, combo tested, blood work, flea treated, and whatever else she needs- the basic necessities to ensure she is at the very least- ok and stable. I’m estimating about $350 for this alone.

Please consider making a donation towards her care. I will be picking her up tonight and posting photos and updates.

She is absolutely beautiful and has bright blue eyes.

If you rather make a donation off of our wish list, we can definitely use wet and dry food since adding her to the crew!

My friend knows I’m overloaded and wouldn’t reach out to me if she wasn’t truly worried about this old girl. I can’t turn a blind eye to the situation. Mamas needs all of US!

Hi everyone!

I just spent a lot of time going through our inventory of food and supplies and have updated our wish list.

To give you all an idea of what I go through monthly (as of 6/8):

- 60 cans of Friskies at a minimum per month.
- 90 jars of Ge**er baby food per month.
- 30 cans of FF Kitten food per month (for now until Penelope's babies are ready to eat)
- 30 cans of FF Senior food per month.
- 60 cans of FF Gravy Lovers per month.
- Close to two 22lb bags of Iams Dry Food per month.
- Probably 6-7 bags of litter per month- currently using Target's 35lb bag brand- we we LOVE! So litter has been removed off of our wish list as I like to get it from Target.

I am currently feeding 20 cats and soon to be 26 as soon as Penelope's babies have teeth!

If you can send us anything off of our wish list, I would GREATLY appreciate it! Without you all, I cannot continue to do what I do.

Please also keep in mind that I give supplies/food away to those locally in need and also send supplies to people off of Amazon frequently! It is not something I post about often, but its one of the things that is apart of my mission

SOS 🆘

My cousin has a friend who has a nursing mama that she’s been trying to help but cannot keep. My cousin has agreed to foster as I know everyone is overloaded right now and I do not have the space to take them on. I am going to need some items for this family as I will provide all of the supplies and eventual spay/neuter/vaccines/etc- this will be a BIG expense!

My cousin will be getting them today. If you can please send us anything off of the list I’ve created or make a donation to help me build up funds for their expenses, I would be so grateful!

This wasn’t expected but- is anything in rescue ever really expected? 😅 we just try to make it work!

Here is their wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/O1N4PBA56C22?ref_=wl_share

Petey, you would have been 10 years old today. It was hard to look at my FB memories because they are full of posts from your birthday over the last 8 years.. until they stopped last year in your 9th birthday 💔

I hope you know I would have done anything to save you and I tried like hell. You’re forever my soul cat. I miss you and think of you every single day. I wish you were here with us so we could celebrate your 10th birthday Earthside, but instead we’ll have to celebrate it while you’re in Heaven.

I’m working today because I had to change my schedule around for a few weeks. I’m hoping it will keep my mind busy today.

This is the first picture we took together the day I brought you home (not our first official photo at the pet store) and then our very last about 6 hours before I said goodbye to you which is not only hard to share but I’ve never shared it before. The last one is one that always makes me laugh- you always used to be in the window at our old apartment and would watch me park and walk around to come inside. You were the very best “welcome squad”… something about you I miss very much.

Happy 10th Birthday, Buggy. I hope you have a wonderful day with Sofie and Crinkles and all of our friend’s kitties who are up at the bridge 🎉

I’m asking you all, if you’re able, to please consider sending our non profit a donation in honor of Petey or one of your beloved babies who are at the bridge. No amount is too small. It helps me continue the work that I’ve been doing in Petey’s and now Crinkles honor and I don’t plan on stopping anytime soon. I’m limited on space but trying to network locally and also am always trying to monetarily help others who need it.

You can donate through FB below which goes to our PayPal or there are other ways below. f you cannot donate, please consider sharing this post.
