Izzy was thrown away by her family and left to fend for herself. Pregnant, with no safe place to give birth, Izzy frantically clawed at a wooden grate until she cleared it away to access the underside of a family's home. At least it was away from the tidal marsh that was prone to flooding and filled with predators. Maybe her kittens wouldn't drown right away, but how long would they all survive?

Thanks to the kindness of the family who found her and our friends at Animals in Distress for trapping Izzy and gathering up her kittens, when we were called in to help we jumped at the chance. Now Izzy and her 4, 4-week old kittens need you to make their rescue dreams fully realized.

We're hoping to raise funds to cover Vet care and food costs for both Izzy and her growing family. Since the kittens don't have names yet, we thought it would be fun for every $10 donation towards their care, YOU CAN GIVE US YOUR NAME SUGGESTIONS! We'll choose our favorites from the list and maybe one of them will be yours?

Rescue takes a community where we all do our part. I hope you'll be able to share your love for this little family, who would have perished if someone didn't step up and say YES, I'll help.

I hope you'll step up and say YES, I'll help, too, by making a DONATION TODAY or by choosing any items you like from our Amazon WishList. That way you can share a special gift for our kittens to enjoy.

Thank you for sharing our passion and love for cats and kittens!

418 non-profits took part in yesterday's Fairfield County's Giving Day and we're proud to say that as a tiny rescue, with only one person at the helm, we managed to rise to 15th place, getting a higher number of unique donations than most of the other organizations. This is a true testament to the dedication of our friends, adopters and volunteers, and for that, please accept our deepest appreciation for helping us raise over $3000 in one day! Add to that our $500 First Prize for Most Likes on our photo of Minnie and her kittens, and that will mean we can continue to provide for our foster cats and help new cats at risk, too.

THANK YOU EVERYONE and especially a big thank you to Fairfield County's Community Foundation for allowing us to take part in this amazing event!
