On March 9, 2023, a couple who adopted two of our rescue kittens back in 2020 came across Hunter in a vacated apartment. They found what you think you would find when a cat has been abandoned for almost a month with only a cut open bag of dry food [...]
Rose, a young pregnant stray, came to me on January 25, 2023. She was extremely malnourished and had delivered one kitten at the Lancaster Animal Shelter but failed to deliver the rest of the litter. We immediately took her to our sponsor vet at Sun City Animal Hospital. The vet [...]
Buck and Tab (character names for the series Band of Brothers) are orange tabby brothers from a Tega Cay litter. They came to me on January 8, 2023. Mom was either a stray or was abandoned, but she was friendly and pregnant when she was taken in by a kind [...]
Shadow was living in a drain in the woods in a neighboring community. One of our adopting families saw him with another cat (Shade) we all assumed was his mother. We have no way of knowing. Shadow was about six months old when we caught him on December 4, 2022. [...]
Shade was a three-year-old female who was living in a drain in a neighboring community. We caught her in a drop trap on December 5, 2022. We thought she was pregnant, so we were trying to get her out of the weather before she had the kittens. It turns out [...]
Latte was an abandoned orphan. She came to us on November 17, 2022, and was probably close to 12 weeks old. We’ll say her birthday is August 21. With her white paws and Siamese features, we called her a “Snowshoe Siamese” because she certainly has some Siamese in her. She [...]
With over 70 cats and kittens coming our way in 2022, by mid-November, we thought we were done for the the year. But kitten season started early and ended late. The Lancaster Animal Shelter called me on November 15 with three abandoned kittens. Apparently they had a young mom, and [...]
Nala and Kula are abandoned orphans from a supported feral colony in Waxhaw, NC. They were about 7-8 weeks olds when we got them on October 24, 2022. They are both quite chubby, healthy, playful, and beautiful. In fact, they are so chubby and blocky, my husband wanted to name [...]
Iana (pronounced Ē-yaw’-nuh) was a 10-week-old female dilute Tortie. She was found alone the evening Hurricane Ian came through the Charlotte area on September 30, 2022. Although she had the typical abandoned/feral kitten medical issues (fleas, dehydration, starvation, internal parasites, . . .), she was so friendly and so easy [...]
Bianca, a very young supported feral, had four babies. She and the kittens came to us on September 22, 2022. The Lancaster Animal Shelter called on September 26 with two abandoned newborn orphans. As we have learned from past experience, mom cats can’t count. The kittens’ names are Merry, Pippin, [...]
Bianca and her four newborn kittens came to me from the Lancaster Animal Shelter on September 22, 2022. She was cautious and protective of her kittens, but was also very affectionate to humans. She was less than a year old – and this may been her first litter. And, yes, [...]
On September 22, 2022, Stitch was rescued along the side of a road in Lancaster, SC, after being hit by a car. He was brought to the Faulkner Animal Hospital who called me. Stitch was about six weeks old, and as you can see, among other abrasions, he had stitches [...]
