🚨 They’re Still Waiting… 🐾

We don’t know how to say this any other way — these two precious kittens need someone to see them. To really see them.

Sage and Toffee have been with us far too long. They deserve a person, a home, a chance.

They’re still a little shy, but once they know you’re safe, they melt. They purr, they snuggle, they give you their whole heart. They just need someone to give them a chance.

If you’ve been thinking about adopting, now is the time! Come meet them. They deserve a life that’s more than waiting. They deserve you.🏡🐾

Contact Karen on 0829901426 to meet them (Port Elizabeth) ✨🐈

Please share. Please care. Let’s not let them grow up wondering what it means to be chosen. ❤️

🐾 Lucky is Still Waiting… But He Hasn’t Given Up Hope 🐾
Meet Lucky 💛—our sweet, resilient boy who’s still holding out hope for his forever home.
Lucky has been in foster care longer than most, but he doesn’t let that dim his spirit. Every day he waits patiently, purring when his foster mom walks in, curling up in sunbeams, and dreaming of a family to call his own.
He may not be a kitten anymore, but Lucky has the heart of one—full of love, curiosity, and cuddles. He’s come so far, and he’s just waiting for someone to see how special he really is.
🏡 Could that someone be you?
If you can’t adopt, please share. The more people who meet Lucky, the better his chance of finding the loving home he deserves.

📩 Contact Schenelle on 072 578 0831 (Port Elizabeth) to learn more about adopting Lucky or to meet him in person.
Let’s help this sweet boy find his happily ever after. 💕

🧡 Heartbreaking News About Our Sweet Ginger Boy 🧡

We tried. We hoped. We fought with everything we had.

But, with shattered hearts, we had to say goodbye to our precious ginger boy. 💔 His injuries were just too severe. Despite our best efforts, there was no path to healing — and we made the hardest, kindest decision to let him go peacefully and pain-free.

He deserved so much more than what life gave him.
He deserved safety, love, and a forever home.
And though he was only with us a short time, he was loved fiercely.

To those who followed his journey, rooted for him, and sent support — thank you. You gave him more love than he likely ever knew before.

Run free now, sweet boy.
No more pain. Just peace. 🕊️🧡

🚨 URGENT: These 3 Kittens Are Being Overlooked 🚨

Update: Rosa has been adopted. Please share so that Sage and Toffee can also find their beautiful people 🙏

It’s been a few days since we shared Sage, Rosa, and Toffee’s story — and our hearts are heavy. 💔 Not one application. Not one visit.

They’re still just babies, but growing up in rescue with no family, no one to call their own. It’s heartbreaking 💔 — because behind their timid eyes are soft, loving souls. They just need someone patient, kind, and willing to let them come out of their shells on their own time.

🐾 Sage is the bravest — sweet, curious, and always the first to come forward.
🐾 Rosa is shy and gentle, but quietly watches from the sidelines, hoping someone will finally see her.
🐾 Toffee, with her sassy little tortitude, will steal your heart when she lets you in.

They want to trust. They want love. They just need someone patient and kind to believe in them.

We trust that the right homes are out there — and we’re asking you to help us find them.
➡️ Share their post.
➡️ Tag a friend.
➡️ Come meet them.
Even fostering for a few weeks could change their lives forever.
Let’s not give up on these girls!

🆘 If they don’t find homes soon, we’re running out of space. We’re doing everything we can, but these girls need help NOW.

If you’ve ever thought about adopting, this is the moment to act.
They don’t deserve to fade into the background — they deserve a chance to thrive.

Let’s not let another week go by with them being invisible. Please… help us find them a home. 💔

Our Little Ginger Fighter is Home! 🧡🐾

Our sweet ginger boy is back from the hospital today! He's on medication to help keep his stools soft as we wait and hope for his body to heal. Through it all, he’s been so brave — and his little sisters must be thrilled to have him home again. 💕🐱

Now, we need your help. We're looking for loving foster homes for these precious kittens. They can be separated, so if you can open your heart and home to just one, that's more than enough.

Please contact Karen at 082 990 1426 if you're able to foster — even temporarily. You could be the reason these little ones thrive. 🙏

Thank you for supporting our mission to rescue and heal. Every share helps!

🐾 Kitten Rescue Update! 🐾

We’re thrilled to share that the last two kittens from our recent rescue mission are now safe and sound in foster care! That makes four little lives saved — three sweet girls and one brave ginger boy. 💕
They’re still a bit scared (can you blame them?), but already starting to relax when held. It’s amazing what a little love, warmth, and patience can do. 💞
However, our ginger boy needs urgent help. He was rushed to the vet today with a severe intestinal blockage. The veterinary team will do everything they can to help him pull through. Please keep this little fighter in your thoughts. 🧡🙏
We’ll keep everyone updated on his condition. If you'd like to support his care or future rescues like this, donations are always deeply appreciated. (Bank details below)
Thank you for being part of their journey to safety. 💖

🐾 Rescue Update – A Day of Progress & Hope 🐾
Today was a big day! We set out to rescue four kittens, and while we only managed to catch two of them, we also brought in two adult males—one of whom, the ginger, is most definitely Daddy! 💛
All four cats are safe tonight and the adults will be sterilized tomorrow before being returned to their colony. That said… the tabby and white male seems to have other plans—he’s made himself very comfortable in the office and is clearly enjoying the indoor life! 😄
We’ll be back out tomorrow to try again for the two remaining kittens—and there’s now a surprise newcomer on our radar: a tabby teenager we hadn’t seen before. Fingers crossed we can bring them all in safely! 🙏
✨ FOSTER NEEDED ✨�We urgently need a foster home for the two kittens we did catch today—for just the next 2 weeks! They're safe but need a quiet, loving space to recover, socialize, and grow.
If you can help, please send us a message ASAP via WhatsApp to 0829901426. Every little bit makes a world of difference. 💕
Thank you for your continued support, shares, and kindness. Stay tuned for tomorrow’s update! 🐱❤️

UPDATE: BOTH THE GIRLS HAVE FOUND HOMES, BUT THE BLACK AND WHITE BOY IS STILL WAITING. PLEASE SHARE 🙏

🚨 RESCUE ALERT 🚨
These three tiny treasures were found huddled in a Spaza shop, being kept as “rodent control.” But what we found were not pest control officers — just the sweetest, most loving little souls with the biggest, neediest hearts and the most magical pixie faces you’ve ever seen. 💔🐾
They meow for attention. They just want to be loved.
But… they’re black. 😿 And unfortunately, that means they’ll struggle to find homes. There’s still so much silly superstition around black cats — and we honestly can’t understand it. These kittens are pure magic. 🖤✨
Let’s break the stigma. Share their story. Adopt a mini house panther. Give love to the ones the world overlooks.�📅 Available for adoption now!
Phone 0829583962 to meet them 😻

🚨 A Twist We Didn't Expect… 🐾💔➡️💡
A sweet stray cat has been visiting a business premises for food. The kind people there have been feeding her regularly, and we recently stepped in to ensure she was sterilized, which was done on Friday. She was returned to the premises this morning.
The vet hadn’t found any signs of pregnancy or lactation, but suspected she may have nursed kittens a few weeks ago. We feared the worst—that maybe the kittens hadn’t survived. 💔
But then, as we released her back at the premises today, one of the workers casually mentioned having seen kittens in a corner of the yard—though he couldn’t recall when exactly.
Before we could even move, mom cat darted off, jumped over the wall, and disappeared. Instinctively, we climbed up to see where she was going...
And there they were.
🧡 Four tiny kittens, tucked away in a dangerous yard full of scrap metal. Our hearts dropped at the thought that they’d been waiting all this time for her to come back—alone, in that environment.
The premises are closed over the weekend, but we’ll be back first thing Monday, and we hope to be granted access to try to trap them. It’s not going to be easy—there’s scrap everywhere, and these little ones are in a place no kitten should grow up.
✨ Please keep these babies in your thoughts—we’ll do everything we can to get them to safety.
If you'd like to help with donations toward food and vet care, please reach out. Every effort brings us closer to saving more lives. 💕

🚨 From the Streets to Safety 🐾💔➡️💖
A few weeks ago, a mama cat and her kittens were spotted sitting helplessly in City Centre. Mom looked completely perplexed and the kittens were clearly hungry. Despite the story circulating widely on Facebook, no one had managed to trap them. They scrounged for scraps, surviving day by day.
Fast forward two and a half weeks—and they were still out there.
We thought they had been rescued long ago! When we heard, we couldn’t sit back any longer. We went down immediately with traps. While we thought there were three kittens, we were heartbroken to learn one had been hit by a car. 💔 We managed to safely trap Mom and the remaining two kittens, and they went into loving foster care.
We left our contact details with people in the area, just in case…
This morning, we got a call. Another kitten had been seen—same spot. When we arrived, residents told us there might be two more still out there. One was very shy and rarely seen. We were able to trap a black-and-white kitten, and we’re committed to going back for the last little one. 🖤🤍
While we were setting up, a family approached us. They had seen two very thin kittens near Feather Market Hall. We went straight there—and found them huddled on the pavement. Dirty, miserable, and starving. 😢 It didn’t take long for them to go into the trap—they were so hungry.
Tonight, three more precious lives are safe in foster care. ✨
We’re not done yet. One kitten is still out there—and we won’t stop until they're safe too. 💪
To everyone who helps by spreading the word, donating, or offering foster space—thank you. This is what compassion looks like.
🖤 If you’d like to support our ongoing rescue efforts, please reach out or consider donating. Every little bit helps save lives.

🐾 Meet Our Newest Street Sweetheart! 🐾

This lovely lady has been turning heads at a local business where she recently showed up, looking for a little love (and maybe a snack or two! 😺). Thankfully, the kind folks there have taken her under their wing and are happy to keep feeding her.

We're making sure she gets the care she needs — she's heading in for sterilization tomorrow, so she can live a safer, healthier life without adding to the stray population. 💜

A huge thank you to the business for showing compassion, and to our amazing supporters who help us make a difference every day ✨
