Kitten Rescue Life

Today we saw a plea for a kitten who was adopted from the shelter a month ago, then yesterday returned by the family in critical condition. They said they didn’t know how to care for a kitten and by the time he made it back he was incredibly emaciated, sick, and on deaths door.

One of our directors, Cassondra, didn’t hesitate and immediately jumped into action. She coordinated everything and stepped up to take him in so he wouldn’t have to sit in the shelter waiting someone would come for him.

No one know exactly what happened during the month he was away, but we do know he’s now safe and officially a Kitten Rescue Life kitten getting the care he needs.

Unfortunately due to lack of space, he was combined with another sick kitten at the shelter, which made our intake double and we’re hoping no repercussions will come of such a risky decision.

As with any emergency intake there will be veterinary costs. Exams, diagnostics, medications, supportive care… it all adds up quickly, especially when a kitten comes to us this sick. We don’t know what his road to recovery will look like yet but we do know he deserves a chance.

If you’d like to help, donations toward his care would mean the world. Every dollar goes directly toward giving kittens like him a chance to recover and have the future they deserve.

Thank you to everyone who shared his plea, advocated for him, and to Cassondra for saying yes when this kitten needed someone most. Welcome to the KRL family, little guy. We’re rooting for you. 🐾

I know everyone was hoping for an update on Shimmer’s remaining eye. Unfortunately we’ve had a minor setback. She did get her stitches out, but we’ll be waiting until Tuesday to share more info about her eye and its condition. She needs one more visit with her vet before we’re ready to say for certain how things are looking. Thank you for loving and supporting our girl along with us, we’ll share more in a few days 🫶🩷🌸
