Another sweet baby rescued from our colony a couple of weeks ago 🎀 She surprised me by being very affectionate after she got over her fears! She has been in foster care with another cat from that colony and is awaiting adoption. Her name is Willow 🥰

Some of these photos can be distressing to most people, so please be warned that they are quite graphic. But it’s important that people are aware of the struggles out undomesticated street cats are going through right on our door steps, and what us animal rescuers are trying to prevent.

Today I trapped this boy named Lionheart from a colony we have been working on. I noticed his abscess right away, but not before I smelt it. I was hoping that this could be flushed and drained and our cute but spicy boy would have a chance at living a good life. That was until I saw the true state of him 😢 The list of issues seems endless, with myself and the vet making the sad decision that euthanasia was the kindest option for Lionheart. Each of his issues alone could have been treated to an extent, but all of those together with the high likelihood of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus made this an uphill battle for our boy, not to mention how it would all affect his mental well-being due to how terrified and reactive he was. I only knew this cat for a couple of hours but I was probably the only person to ever love him. He was sedated before he was euthanised which gave me a quick chance to give him a gentle stroke on his nose and a scratch on his head. I told him I was sorry that we couldn’t help him sooner 🥺 All I could do was make that call to put him out of his pain and end his suffering.
Thank you to the lovely staff at EVH for showing so much compassion for my boy and taking the time to discuss his condition in depth. We were able to give him a respectful and peaceful passing which is the most that anyone has ever done for him.

Rest In Peace my little street king 💔🧡 I promise I’ll watch over all your girlfriends and babies until I have them in lovely homes 🥰

This week I had a call from a woman who let me set a trap at her work a few weeks back to help with the adorable Sylvester who found himself at a tip after hitching a (very!) dangerous ride in the back of a rubbish truck. She had previously helped two cats at the tip and was needing to trap and get them sterilised and microchipped. I headed out to pick one up (second photo) who is being sterilised, microchipped and returned. When I got there they had managed to trap a 4 month old kitten. They hadn’t seen this girl before and believe she came from the school across the road, heading to her house in search for food. It’s little things like kids going on holidays when stray cats rely on them for food that you never think about. But this girls scavenging days are over as she already has a foster home who are wanting to adopt her once her veterinary care is finalised.

Amazing news! I got a message the other day from someone who was looking for their missing cat. They saw my post and sent his photos through, and I’m happy to say that Big Mac is back HOME! 🥰 His real name is Patchy and he is loved by two young girls who were over the moon to have him home.

Nice knowing you, Patchy 😸💙

Ranger has his first meet and greet on Saturday morning and I’m 99.9% sure he will be heading home with his forever Mum 🥺

So happy for him but so sad for me! 🥺 After a long 8 months of moving from pound to shelter to another rescue and then to my place, he deserves to finally be somewhere he can call home and I’m so happy that The Mad Catters Inc. could give him that. He hasn’t had a home since at least Christmas last year and while he is so wanted and loved at our place, he will be a lot more comfortable having a whole house to explore to himself. Not to mention his very own special person 💙

My Ranger Danger boy hasn’t had any enquires for adoption yet, but there’s someone out there who was destined to welcome this boof into their family 😸🐾

The next menace to society 🤭 Big boy Duke! Duke was seen wondering around the area for quite a few months. A local became concerned when she noticed that the cat was searching around for her dogs left over food each night and shared him in local community pages. Unfortunately no one has come forward to claim him as theirs, but we did have someone who lost a white cat ask if he might be there’s. Duke wasn’t their missing cat, but they signed up to be his foster family and plan to adopt him in no owners come forward.

Such a handsome boy and safe out of the harsh sun burning those ears and that nose! Another Catter to add to the collection 😸🐾

Big Mac 🍔 Everyone loves them! Especially when they’re black and white and adorably sweet 😸 This lovely boy was spotted huddled up in a corner of the playground at McDonalds Ellenbrook. After seeing a few posts that were 4 and 6 hours old I assumed someone would have headed down there, but a third post was made on Facebook so I headed down to see how he was doing. Mac was easy to spot with the help of staff who opened up a side gate to give me access to pull Mac out. With the help of a crew member shuffling him from one end towards me, I was able to grab Big Mac(by the scruff, sorry my boy but there was no other option 😭) and pull him to the safety of caring arms. He had a little bit of a freak out and tried to run away but we managed to get him in to a carrier and off we went. Mac was so exhausted he could barely keep his eyes open after having some water and dinner, and he immediately curled up in his enclosure for a long sleep until the next evening. We don’t know where he came from, what he went through, how he came to be there or where his family is, but we do know that he’s safe and has now been sterilised and microchipped while we look for his family or await an adoption listing.

Welcome the the Catters, Big Mac 😸

This mother and daughter duo were named Carly and Tilly and have been placed in care with two of our wonderful self-confessed cat ladies! Living with Nomoré over the last couple of years, this trio of cats were lucky enough to find a house with someone who noticed their suffering and began to offer food morning and night, as well as a cosy cat cave by the front door which Tilly loved! Carly (brown tabby) is doing great and accepting pats from her carer who is eagerly awaiting her foster babies to be born. Tilly (black) had to go and see our friends at EVH Emergency Vet Hospital over the weekend to assess head tilt that we had concerns over and check how her babies were doing via ultrasound. At this stage everything seems okay in the way of injuries or recent trauma to her neck or head, and we’re looking forward to her kittens joining us and growing up so that we can focus on Tilly’s tilty neck. To our surprise, Tilly is a very friendly girl and is settling with her carers beautifully.

The streets are no place for baby cats to be born 🙀☝🏼

Meet Nomoré, an absolute heartbreaker!

This sweet boy accidentally stumbled across our trap that we had set to catch two pregnant cats. Thankfully he did because he needed a lot of help! Poor Nomoré had mats and knots all through his coat with big chunks of dandruff and scabs. Our wonderful vets and nurses gave him a much needed shave to relieve his discomfort, finding horribly inflamed and sore skin underneath. Nomoré is now on medication for the next month or two and has twice weekly spot washes to keep him comfortable. Nomoré also tested positing for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) so it’s just as well he landed in the hands of us Catters.

We’re so happy to have you Nomoré 😸💜

On to my next set of rescues, the incredibly brave Tao and her five kittens Marlu, Aari, Roo, Kaya and Fergus 🐱

This sweet mumma randomly showed up at someone’s property last year in search of food. She must have great instincts as she was lucky enough to meet Michelle and her family who started leaving food for her and encouraging her to come closer to the home. Tao ended up having a litter of kittens where were eventually caught and handed over to Cat Haven, with the family choosing to adopt two of them. With Tao slowly coming closer to the house months and months later they thought they were finally in with a chance of catching her and getting her the help she needed. All went well until the fires tore through our Perth hills forcing Tao to run away in fear of her life. When the family were eventually able to return to their property they were shocked to find Tao had returned and to their surprise - she had 5 babies not long after! A few weeks passed by when the family needed to move to their new home, again pushing Tao to move her babies except for Marlu who was accidentally left behind. The family took Marlu home and continued to return in search of Tao, until they finally found her and her 4 babies who had shown up on someone’s property and were posted on Facebook. Michelle rushed off to get Tao who came running to into her arms, and the family were then safe again and reunited.

Tao has now been sterilised and is officially a pet cat and looks forward to a long life with Michelle and her family 🐾 with her babies headed off for adoption. Aren’t they all so adorable 😸💜
