Time to Spring into Action!
It's only been a few weeks into spring and here at the Annex Cat Rescue we already have several nursing queens and pregnant cats in residence... with more on the way. Tremendous advantage is given to baby kittens born in an indoor environment (as opposed to the uncontrolled weather outdoors, where their survival rate may be decreased ten-fold!).
Do you have a little extra room in your home? (Even a small bathroom or spare bedroom will do!) Have you always wanted to witness the "miracle of birth" or hold a tiny baby kitten? Here is your chance -- we are in great need of foster home volunteers to host pregnant and nursing mom cats and young kittens. Tiny lives are counting on you to provide them a safe, loving haven on their way into this world!
Gramps greatly seeks your generosity...
It was a bitterly cold day in December when an Annex Cat Rescue volunteer went to the east end to assess a cat affectionately called "Gramps". The concerned family who had contacted Annex Cat Rescue reported that Gramps had been living on their property at least as long as they had lived there -- eight years. He had spent many cold winters outdoors with a feral colony, but this winter, the family had concerns about his health.
When the ACR volunteer spotted Gramps, she saw right away that he had a severe neck wound. Gramps was rushed to a veterinary clinic and once indoors, two things became immediately apparent. First, Gramps was unlike his feral companions in the colony from which he had been rescued. Far from feral, he was a gentle-hearted, sweet cat. And second, Gramps was very, very ill.
