When my mother, June, passed away she had a senior cat named "Ninety Nine." That's when June's Senior Cat Rescue was born.

We are a 501c3 organization dedicated to rescuing senior cats from high kill shelters, promoting the adoption of older cats, and educating people about the benefits of adopting older pets. No one in our family wanted her, so I decided to drive to California to get Ninety Nine. On the long drive home, I decided that I had to do something to help the senior cats who are left homeless when their owner passes away or becomes too ill to care for them. Thanks, mom for inspiring me to help the seniors!

We've been getting a lot of requests lately to take in more senior cats. We are limited on space without more foster homes, but we can share them here and hope that one of our wonderful followers will see a cat that they absolutely have to adopt. 😻

Please meet Si. Si is at the Torrance County Animal Services in New Mexico. He is believed to be 10-12 years old. We are told that he is neutered and super friendly. He is also getting a dental next week. We do not have any other information about him or how he ended up in the shelter. If you are interested in learning more about Si, please reach out to the wonderful people at the Torrance County Animal Services and they can help you out.

You can call them at 505-384-5117.

If you are interested in being a Furever Foster with us, please go to www.jscr.org to complete a foster application.

Stevie is a handsome siamese boy around 15 years old. He was presumably dumped in a cat colony that one of our volunteers cares for. Stevie has no teeth and is completely blind; however, he eats both wet and dry food just fine. He is neutered and would really benefit from either a foster or adopter where he can retire and enjoy a cozy place to lie in the sun. Stevie is very sweet and content.
Stevie is available through My Little Kitty Rescue.
If interested in Stevie, please call Cassidy at 317-438-0956.

The cat is located in Las Cruces.

➡️ We do not have any additional information than what is posted here. Please do not post questions here as we will not be able to answer them.

How many of you keep a lint roller in the car? Asking for a friend (we are the friend).

❤️ Senior Sunday ❤️

Yesterday we took a trip to the Albuquerque Animal Welfare department. We got to see some very nice kitties and two special senior kitties that I want to introduce to you.

The first one is Batman. Batman is a 14 year-old all black male cat who really needs to get out of the shelter. He has been there since July. He is very mellow and laid-back according to the staff. They do not know if he’s ever lived with other cats before.

The other cat is named viper. Viper is an 11 year old spayed female, brown tabby. She was surrendered by her owner and the reason was “couldn’t care for.” We don’t know much about Viper, but Viper did talk to me a lot from inside their cage. She seemed very sweet and interested in meeting us though she did not come up to the front of the kennel.

The Albuquerque Animal Welfare Department is open every day except Monday from 10:30 AM to 6 PM. We saw some other cats too that I’ll highlight in another post.

Please go save a life.

🐈 Did you know that November is Adopt a Senior Cat Month? 🐈

This month, we'll share some facts about senior cats. First, we want to answer: What is considered a senior cat?

Some experts consider cats seniors at age 8, and consider them seniors at age 10. Here at June's, we consider our cats seniors once they reach age 10. Here's what Catster's vet has to say, along with a few care tips for seniors.

Watching our cats grow from kittens into adults is full of challenges, laughs, and love. As your cat ages and enters their senior years...

At the vet with Butch. He is here to get his anemia checked because it was so dangerously low when we first got him. Fortunately, we have been able to get him on some medication and it appears to be helping him.

But on exam, the vet found something growing in his mouth. Because he is FIV+, Dr Hamel doesn’t know if it’s stomatitis or cancer. The cure for stomatitis is doing a dentistry and removing all teeth. However, they don’t have any openings until January. ☹️

The fact that he is FIV+, makes this really tricky.

Waiting on bloodwork results to figure out next steps.

Please keep Butch in your thoughts and prayers. 🙏🙏❤️❤️

The electorate has weighed in, and we congratulate Hope as our new mayor elect!

In her acceptance speech, she said, "The people have spoken, and I am thankful you have put your trust in me. Now excuse me, I see a sunny spot, and we all could use a little nap right now."
