💛I am courtesy sharing this little guy to help Ladybird Animal Sanctuary find Mickey his next foster home or even better, his forever home.🙏🏻

🛑This cat is not with us.

He looks so sweet with a side of cheeky and loads of energy - reminds me of both Milton and Hercules as they share similar medical needs. Mickey, like Milton, is a manx kitty with some neurological challenges that really don't seem to phase him in the least!💫

While I've been tagged in his posts multiple times, and I don't disagree, the trio would be adorable, I am not the right person for Mickey. His person is somewhere out there tho - so please SHARE his need and help Mickey find his next landing spot beyond clinic boarding where he's currently at.🙏🏻

In case you are thinking about opening your heart and home to this cutie - he's said to be good with both cats and dogs. BONUS! 😸

Contact Ladybird Animal Sanctuary for more info or to apply to foster or adopt Mickey.

🥰🧠Another awesome alum update from a not-so-little guy anymore - Logan (now known as Atash)❤️

I had to look up his kitten photos when I got his current stunning photos of the floofiest floofer I have seen! That MANE! 😍

Never in my wildest imagination, would I have envisioned this majestic creature was hidden away in that little cutie patootie kitten body! Haha

Aside from Atash's super good looks, he's continued to be the absolutely loving boy he was from the start. He loves his family, snuggling and enjoys venturing outside safe inside his catio that his dad so lovingly built for him.

From his dad:
"I honestly can't imagine my days without him now."

And that's what we love to hear!❤️

Usually our random post-adoption updates come by message via text, email, messenger or IG, but not Tony - Tony prefers some random in-person meet-ups at our mutual location - Kahu AH! 😆

We've run into each other a couple of times in the recent months, this last one being just last week. He was dealing with a stone, but before surgery was needed, he decided better to just pass it on his own while in his appt.. Smart guy, that Tony is!😽

Admittedly, while I never want our kitties to be going thru any health challenges, there's also something comforting about running into adopters in clinic - it's confirmation that care is being provided. Not that I ever had doubts it would be, but still ... It makes me happy to see it happening in person all the same. Is that weird? I don't think so.

Tony is so deeply loved. And that's all we want for these guys when they go forever home.❤️

GERALDINE❤️

Our sweet girl headed to foster on Saturday only to return to Kahu AH on Sunday.

It turns out that our sweet little girl has open pyometra - this is a life threatening infection of the uterus where the cervix remains partially open, allowing discharge to drain thru the va**na which thankfully, buys us a very small window of time to get her spay done this week.

Open pyometra can suddenly become closed pyometra. Had she presented with symptoms of closed pyometra, she would have required an immediate spay as the window for death is approx. 24-48hrs due to the trapped toxins causing sepsis in the bloodstream along with the often delayed diagnosis as it's not as easy to spot in its early stages. She is being monitored closely for any changes.

This is just ONE life threatening reason to spay your animals. It's not cute when they're near death from something that could have easily been avoided.

We also confirmed a head tilt which upon further testing of her ears, turns out she has an ear infection that is the likely cause of her tilt. We anticipate that as her infection clears, her head will right itself completely. If it doesn't due to any scar tissue left behind, she will still be totally fine and extra adorable with whatever tilt remains.

Her eye also continues to be monitored and a recheck of her pressures is scheduled for this week.

Geraldine is just one more story among the many that have been told by umpteen rescues, including ours, where the animal skirted death because they were rescued. Geraldine, if not brought in, would have died outside. No question about it.

Your ongoing support allows us to do what we do. If everyone who follows us, gave just $5 or $10 monthly, our struggle would be no more.💜

THANK YOU to those who have donated to help Geraldine. She has also been gifted a lovely donor who has been so compassionately taking care of her expenses thus far. 🙏🏻💛 All funds gifted for Geraldine are being set aside for her in case she needs an eye removal, which is still looking more likely than not.

✨To help us continue to help our cats in care and one day be able to once again, freely say yes to helping more cats, please give what you can one of these ways:

MACY (aka Helen) was a totally random and unexpected intake. The universe works in magical ways even if only to break our hearts a little while guiding us to help another. Her story deserves to be shared.

I happened to be in the east end on Monday, hoping to randomly spot where Geraldine might be hanging around as there was a plan in place to trap her that evening with two fellow rescuers. While messaging with Pia, and trying to figure out how best to tackle Geraldine, she got a message about another cat - a blind cat found in the east end picked up off the street and the finder was trying to get help for her.

Literally right up the road - maybe 15mins drive away from where I was. Geraldine's location was not as easy to navigate as it turned out to be quite wooded around the townhouse complex. I decided to leave it be so we can make a better plan and instead, switched focus to this blind kitty.

Small world - she was picked up by a past adopter, Sharon, as it turned out. It was a bonus to get a lovely update while also picking up this sweet little kitty.

Macy was found laying literally in the middle of Broadview Ave. - not moving as a vehicle drove over her (not on her). Sharon compassionately pulled over and scooped up this little girl who was very much alive. She soon realized Macy was blind and otherwise, felt she was okay, no visible injuries or anything - restless behaviour was chalked up to being blind. She must have stumbled into the street was our thoughts.

When I transferred Macy from the box she was in, to a carrier for our ride to Kahu AH, I realized she was in really bad shape. Signs of neurological issues were present and I chalked it up to likely being hit by a vehicle or something. We rushed to Kahu AH.

Macy was matted, flea ridden, blind, but had zero signs of injury or illness on X-ray, ultrasound and blood work and even her nails were not shredded nor her paw pads injured which often indicate being hit by a car. She was simply neurological, could barely hold herself upright, stumbled around neurologically, was blind and on the decline. Even touching her for examination triggered some neurological responses. And she was absolutely heartbreaking.🥺

How did this cat find herself outside? We'll never know. She wasn't well cared for, that's for sure. She was likely a street kitty whose health simply declined and she had nobody loving her or there to help her medically because she was homeless. Street life isn't all it's cracked up to be. These cats aren't just living the high life, basking in sunshine. They're struggling. They're facing hardships they have no choice but to face alone - unless they are seen and helped.

Macy is no longer struggling. She's free from her failing mind and body. I can just imagine how lovely a little girl she must have been. It was a very blue Monday last week.

When you see an animal in need, please don't just turn a blind eye to them. Take a moment and help them. You could be saving their life - even if only to bring them peace thru release.

This past week was tough. It began with loss and ended with loss and I had some other stuff happen in between that won't be shared. Thank you to Sharon for seeing this sweet girl. Thank you to Kahu AH for fitting us in and showing Macy the compassion and gentleness she needed so desperately.

I wish this outcome had been different. But, we were still very much meant to meet, sweet Macy - even if only for a brief moment.😪💙🌈🪽

08/02/2026

UPDATE: Tumours were seen on her lungs on x-ray. 😭 Her foster mom is coming to be with her while we help her cross the rainbow bridge.🌈🪽

This is baby #2 for this week. And a trip to Thistledown next week.🥺

Whether you can help with our multiple cremation expenses or with our medical bills at Kahu AH - we are deeply grateful for your support.😔
************************

I can't describe how the week has been right now but suffice it to say that it has been s*** and just won't end.😭

I have been slowly playing catch up on wellness checks with our cats that have been in the background quietly living their lives with their foster parents, and feeling healthy. I just got a message from Georgia's foster mom that Georgia is now in an urgent state of health.

While her foster mom was dealing with a personal medical situation, it sounds like Georgia was unknowingly declining in her own health and has now stopped eating for 3 days, lost weight and is breathing poorly. As you can see in the video. She is heading to Kahu AH and we need your help with the unknown at this point - costs. Whatever you can spare makes a difference.💜

❤️ MEET GERALDINE ❤️

Sometimes rescue has a funny way of finding you.

One comment in a group chat about me hopping a fence (thanks, 30SixPaws Animal Rescue 🤭)—which, for the record, is not one of my skills. I'm much more of a "someone save me, I'm stuck on the fence!" kind of gal. 😂

And just like that... we met Geraldine.

After days of dedicated feeding by caring neighbours, Pia from New Cat City Toronto, Shirley, Nikolett and her partner, and with Random Rescuer joining the effort, this tiny injured girl was safely contained on Tuesday evening.

It truly takes a village. 💛

At just 8 months old, Geri is intact, frightened, and carrying the signs of a very rough life outside. She has facial injuries, including a laceration around her nose, and trauma to her right eye that may have been caused by a puncture wound. Whether it was from a fall, wildlife, or another cat, we simply don't know.

Today we're hoping treatment can save her eye, but only time will tell.

Like so many homeless cats, she was also covered in fleas, suffering from ear mites, and was found on ultrasound to be coming into heat. Thankfully, she wasn't pregnant.

Despite everything she's endured, Geri has shown us nothing but sweetness.

She is receiving excellent care at Kahu Animal Hospital, and we're incredibly grateful for everything they do for our rescue kitties. 💜

Our doors officially remain closed... but sometimes a little furry face simply sneaks through.

Geri wasn't even the first one this week. ❤️

Every unexpected intake means unexpected veterinary expenses. If you'd like to help Geri and the many other Random Rescuer cats receiving medical care, we'd be so grateful.

MEET GERALDINE❤️

Life works in weird ways. A comment about me hopping a fence to help this cat in a group chat (thanks, 30SixPaws Animal Rescue), and suddenly we have little Geraldine — a wee, intact 8-month-old who we all thought for certain was a Gerrard (as you'll hear in the video! 🤭).

For the record - I'm not a fence climber by any stretch! I'm a fence-get-stuck, "someone save me", kinda gal.😂

THANKS to the joint efforts of Pia from New Cat City Toronto , concerned neighbours, Shirley, Nikolett and her partner, and Random Rescuer, we were able to contain this injured little girl on Tuesday evening during her evening feeding window.

Rescue is all about team work. If these caring and concerned people had not taken the time to feed this little cat at set times, it would have been more challenging to find and secure her.💛

Geraldine (or Geri for short) has signs of facial trauma whether a result of a fall or an attack by wildlife like a coyote, fox, raccoon or even another cat. Just around here nose there is a laceration that caused a large amount of bleeding that had crusted over and then freshened a little, likely when contained.

Her poor right eye may or may not need removal. It has sustained trauma that appears to potentially be a puncture, and definitely something that caused bleeding to occur. She will be further examined today and she has begun treatment with hope of salvaging her eye.

Of course, she was flea ridden and with those filthy ears, treated for ear mites too.

Geri is a sweet, scared little girl with a handful of little scrapes and a couple of larger injuries that are all being treated at Kahu AH. We are incredibly grateful for their care and their willingness to roll with the unexpected that rescue so often brings. 💜

With antibiotics and flea and mite treatment on board, we're hopeful she'll bounce back quickly-except for the uncertainty surrounding her eye.

This little girl was also found to be coming into heat upon ultrasound. Thankfully, not pregnant. Can you imagine?

Our doors continue to remain officially closed, but sometimes a furry face sneaks thru. She is not the first one who did this, this week, but the other little girl is for another post.

We continue to need help funding the care of all the kitties with Random Rescuer. We've got a calendar post coming soon so you can see everything we've got planned over the coming weeks and months.

In the meantime, any help you can send our way - we are always grateful.
