WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO "RESCUE" A KITTY AND SAVE THEIR LIFE… AND WHO YOU SHOULD CALL FOR HELP!!!

EVERY cat deserves a chance to live a safe life with food, shelter, and medical care!!! 

Below are two certified, approved, 501(c)3 non-profit, NO KILL rescues… they spend every moment of every day providing care for sick and dying kitties, saving their lives, and in the process, running back and forth to the vets' offices all hours of the night,  begging everyone for help to raise funds to pay for the outrageous cost of medical care, yet never hesitating to get the best care for every kitty!!!!  Just the food and litter and everyday expenses… they are in constant need of volunteers and never know how they will make it to the shelters to save the next kitty about to die… or get to the person who just called them with a severely injured kitty attacked by something in the wild or hit by a car who kept on going… that's rescue, Patch Pet Lovers!!!!   Never quitting… never stopping… even after the kitty has a home… they never get a break, because there are so many others waiting!!!!

Please read about them and visit their web sites… any help you may provide them is never, ever too small!!!  Go to their Facebook pages and share their posts and help them in any way you can… because they are ALWAYS helping everyone with every kitty situation you can think of… and many unimaginable!!!  
I defer to the experts below when I need professional and accurate advise:

Randall's Rescue - When you visit their web site, the first words you shall see:   "Every life is worth saving"

"Our rescue started out dealing primarily with feral cat colonies ~ working in the veterinary field, I came to realize what a tremendous need there was for a reputable, competent rescue to take action and make a difference in the lives of all of these feral and/or stray animals.  All of our rescues are true RESCUES ~ they come from all walks of life: feral colonies, strays from an alleyway or simply abandoned, unwanted or neglected pets." http://www.randallsrescue.net 


Lynn's Animal Rescue - Lynn is a one-woman wonder… saving the world!! 

"Lynn’s Animal Rescue is a small loving organization with a very hands on approach. We do everything in our power to bring the ill back to good health, socialize the shy and timid and find the perfect home for every cat. We will keep them until we do, even if it means forever."    (Bold added by me.)

Alley Cat Allies  They are "the only national advocacy organization dedicated to the protection and humane treatment of cats."

Many consider themselves a "rescue" but not just anyone can do rescue work.  I do amazing things working with cats… I've re-homed  kitties, nursed kitties to health, befriended the most aggressive kitties, helped resolve behavioral issues so kitties remained in their home and not become another homeless cat, always raising large amounts of funds to help homeless kitties, spent countless hours volunteering over the years with homeless kitties, and provide a voluminous amount of hours and time caring for kitties whose families cannot afford it… big deal!!! It's what I do!!!  My holiday and birthday celebration were just cancelled and I spent every moment for nine ( 9 ) days trying to save a kitty's life… and ended up in Lancaster for a weekend instead ensuring he was save in a new home... big deal!  I did it because I love kitties, and literally pulled the cat from the vet's office before the "rescue" had him killed!!!  It was the worst 9 days I can remember… but it was a happy ending and I saved his life… still, I AM NOT A RESCUE!!!

As a professional pet care provider, my expertise has primarily been with domesticated animals… and I am happy to provide answers to any questions you may have with your house kitties.  Feel free to write to me anytime!    At present, I do provide food and monitor some feral kitties, and I have worked with feral kitties under the guidance of others whom are the experts with feral cats.  

I may be able to provide you with some answers… if not, without hesitation, I defer to the experts I mentioned above… 

If you have any questions about rescuing a kitty, wish to become a foster for a kitty, caring for an outdoor kitty, in any way saving a kitty's life, please contact Randall's Rescue, Lynn's Animal Rescue, or Alley Cat Allies to ensure you receive accurate information from the experts!!! 

Helping to keep beloved furry babies healthy and safe... and pet parents informed! 

Wishing everyone lots of furry fun and precious purring moments throughout the holiday season!
