We decided to change our strategy regarding the remaining kitties on site due to the number of females with the potential to have more kittens! Extremely happy to report that the remaining cats have now been trapped, vetted, and have either been placed or are awaiting forever homes in tempory foster care.
Four Recent Placements:
One lucky girl was adopted last week by a vet tech at the clinic which provided her care.
A wonderful barn home was found for three feral girls together this weekend! Awesome placements!
What is needed now?
MORE ADOPTIONS!!!
We have 4 cats that are very friendly and need indoor only placements and 1 kitty that would like either a safe barn/outside home or might be OK inside. If you can adopt one of these kitties, please email help@chathamanimalrescue.org. There is no adoption fee for these cats.
*White Nose is a DMH brown/grey tabby with white female adult. She is outgoing and gets along with other cats. Very beautiful girl. You can see why her name is White Nose! Needs indoor home.
* Kitton is a Maine Coon mix brown/grey tabby with white male adult with potential to be your best friend! Handsome guy! Needs indoor home.

* For those who love their orange tabbies, Big Boy is starting to come out of his shell and will make a great cat for a safe barn/outside adoption. He could even progress to an indoor situation, given time. Might be better as the only cat as he liked throwing his weight around! Hunky, chunky boy!

*Godfrey has been our poster cat for kitties in need! This sweet black and white tux gentleman was taken in early by one of our cat women on the scene. He was found to be lethargic, extremely thin, and just lying by the gravel drive with little hope for his future. Mr. G was so affectionate and wanted to get on your lap even in his sad condition. At the vet he was given fluids, his multiple abscesses treated, labwork checked. He stayed at the vet because he was very weak and needed extra care. Finally, he began eating and feeling more perky so he was taken in by a very special temporary foster mom where he awaits his future family. Godfrey did test FIV positive, but this will not keep him from being adopted into a wonderful indoor home and having a fulfilling life. Godfrey is our miracle boy!
- Godfrey: happy again!
*Teacup is a very colorful Torbie girl that is so friendly and affectionate. She turns belly up for rubs and really wants a forever home soon.
Teacup wants in carrier!
MORE DONATIONS!!!
It’s unbelievable the generousity we have experienced to help these unfortunate babies! To date, CARE has received almost $1900 from donors wanting to make sure the cats are cared for. WOW! But, we need to keep going. A few of these kitties have required extensive medical care and emergency visits beyond the usual basic vetting. Our goal is still $3,000 and I know we can do it! So, please go to www.chathamanimalrescue.org to donate Emergency Funds for the Siler City Cats. Thanks go out to all our donors! We couldn’t have taken this on without you!
“All funds raised above and beyond those necessary for this special animal(s) will be directed to CARE’s general fund for the use of all CARE animals.”
And special thanks to our adopters! We have had 11 cats go out in a little over a week. It’s heartwarming to see how many folks are able to take in these not-so-perfect, but oh-so-deserving cats. We will be updating the blog with some Happing Ending pics very soon!
Thank you for all your support and good wishes,
Signed, the Cat Women of CARE
