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?

First Family 1200

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.

Little Guy 650

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!

Help Pom Pom Walk

We tried. We tried so hard, but now we need you.

Pom Pom Pomegranate has no chance of walking without discomfort unless we remove her back left leg. It’s taken us 10 months, specialist visits, tests, treatments, and zillions of hours of physical therapy to come to this decision. We need all of you to make it happen.

We need to raise $6,000. by March 9^th.

Give Pom Pom the gift of less pain and a chance to walk more easily.

Why Now?

Pom Pom is almost a year old. Her body will not improve beyond what we've been able to do for her.

Imagine you have to keep your leg stretched out. You can’t bend it. You can’t support yourself on your foot because it bends backward at an awkward angle. The weight of the malformed leg forces your back to twist unnaturally. It causes shocks of nerve pain. How can you live like that?

Pom Pom can’t continue to live like this.

We know there are surgical risks. We’ve done extra testing to be as safe as we can be. Will this surgery make everything perfect? No, but her back leg hinders her mobility, so we feel this is her best option. We have to try for Pom Pom.

We can do it with you by our side.

Your gift is tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
