After 14 years of cat rescue, we have learned that not every rescue has a happy ending. Sometimes, we find cats too late to save their lives, but cat rescue can still give them love, comfort, dignity, and ensure they are never forgotten.
After Vito’s follow-up visit and seeing very little improvement, the vet has decided that our sweet 14-year-old boy needs to have the only two premolars he has left extracted to finally relieve his pain. He’s already on pre-op antibiotics and is scheduled to have surgery tomorrow (09.03.2026) at noon. Although Vito is in good shape […]
Without having had time to grieve for our little Luna, whom we lost last weekend, Thursday brought yet another trip to the vet for our senior rescue, Vito (14). Vito had stopped drinking water and was barely eating, and he looked like he was in pain. Over the last couple of years, he has struggled […]
After four heartbreaking days battling between life and death in the ICU, last night Luna lost her fight and crossed the Rainbow Bridge, just 10 days after we rescued her. We went to visit her in the late afternoon, and she had suffered yet another serious setback. Little did we know that this would be […]
Our little girl took a heartbreaking turn earlier today. Her congestion became so severe that she stopped eating, and her already fragile little body simply couldn’t keep up.
Yesterday (08/12/2026), we rescued this precious little baby from Cricket’s colony. Just 4 weeks old, she was found wandering around, barely able to see and unable to find her food. Jackie scooped her up, cleaned her eyes but noticed that that the poor baby was in very bad conditions so she rushed the kitten straight […]
As the years go by, we’re seeing a big shift in our rescue. Many of the cats we once took in as kittens or young adults are now seniors and with that comes a whole new level of care, commitment, and cost. Older rescues need more than just love and a safe place to rest. […]
Exactly three months after being released from the veterinary hospital, this morning we had to rush Angel back to the emergency vet, where he has once again been hospitalized and placed on IV fluids. This was completely unexpected, as Angel had not been vomiting and actually maintained quite a healthy appetite. However, over the last […]
Today, Vinny went for his second FeLV/FIV test… and he tested NEGATIVE! 🎉 After months of uncertainty, isolation, patience, and hope, we can finally breathe a little easier. We are beyond thrilled and incredibly grateful for this wonderful result. This means that very soon, Vinny will finally be able to begin meeting the other rescues […]
This morning, we had to rush Chloé (11) to the emergency vet after she suddenly became very unwell. She experienced severe vomiting and she had liquid diarrhea with a large amount of blood. The vets are running all kinds of lab tests. Please keep our sweet Chloé in your thoughts and prayers 🙏 as we […]
Last night we had to rush Vito (14) to the emergency vet! After he began vomiting repeatedly, we noticed he was also having trouble swallowing and was unable to eat. It escalated quickly so we rushed him to the emergency vet. At the hospital, they evaluated and stabilized him. Based on his symptoms and biochemestry […]
After 24 hours of round-the-clock intensive care — going through absolute hell as Angel’s metabolic system kept crashing and made us fear the worst — our minds simply could not accept that we might have to face the most heartbreaking decision. For five days, despite laxatives, he still could not poop… We tried everything and […]
Angel was discharged in the afternoon and is finally back home with us. To manage the severe constipation, he received two enemas. Post-enema X-rays showed that although he passed stool, not everything came out, so he will be taking a laxative for the next 3 days while we closely monitor his bowel movements at home. […]
Angel is stable tonight, but he is not out of the woods yet. He has started eating small amounts again and is drinking water, which are encouraging signs. He looks exhausted, but as soon as he sees us during visiting hours he starts purring away. New X-rays showed a large amount of dry stool stuck […]
For the past few days Angel hadn’t quite been himself, but there were no obvious signs that made us think something serious was happening. This morning everything changed. Angel woke up vomiting and then began straining to poop — large amounts of mucus mixed with blood came out, and he cried in pain. We rushed […]
After almost two months of settling in, Vinny’s long-overdue first veterinary checkup is finally here. Over the past few weeks, he has made incredible progress—learning to trust again, discovering how to play, and slowly growing more confident with each passing day. Because of this progress, we truly believe Vinny is ready for his first trip […]
Early this morning, we rushed Gigi to the emergency vet, where bloodwork showed that IMHA had eaten away at her red blood cells, depriving her vital organs of oxygen and causing a sudden deterioration. Despite the severity of her condition, Gigi fought until the very end—even the vet was amazed that she was still standing […]
After a long and exhaustive vet visit, it’s been confirmed that Cheeky has come down with Calicivirus. However, it’s still unclear whether this is the cause of her nausea and poor appetite. The vet explained that the ulcers are mainly on the outside of her mouth, and her throat is not that red or swollen, […]
Poor Vinny has endured more hardship than any animal ever should. Jackie first spotted him about two months ago, abandoned just a few blocks away from the feral colony she feeds. At first, he was terrified, hiding under parked cars, trembling at the sight of anyone. But as the days passed, he slowly allowed us […]
Cricket won’t be needing more antibiotics— his eyes have fully healed, his upper respiratory congestion is gone, and he’s even gained a little weight over the last two weeks! He’s still just a baby with a sensitive immune system, so stress affects him easily and he’s now taking a supplement to help boost his defenses. […]
