5/12-We’ve been told that this girl doesn’t have much time! She needs an ADOPTION or RESCUE hold by 5:30pm TONIGHT or she’ll be EUTHANIZED tomorrow morning!

5/9-April is such a pretty girl and she’s extremely sweet. Just look at her pick up her little paw. 🥹 This speckly girl hasn’t had any interest and it would be a shame to lose her.

‼️The shelter has changed their euthanasia policy resulting in losing cats without warning on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.‼️

4/30-Rosie is a very pleasant kitty cat. Her owner surrendered her due to being ALLERGIC and now Rosie has been patiently waiting for OVER TWO MONTHS for someone to want her.

She’s not a pushy cat and she won’t annoy you for attention, but she loves it when you show her affection. Rosie doesn’t have a tail, but we don’t know if that’s due to her breed or a birth defect or injury. Rosie is a sweetheart and ready to leave the shelter!

🐾 6 years old
🐾 7 lbs

Three momma cats and fifteen tiny kittens are waiting for a chance at a better life, but Rescued Pets Movement needs you...
04/10/2026

Three momma cats and fifteen tiny kittens are waiting for a chance at a better life, but Rescued Pets Movement needs your help to save them.

Momma Pudding has 4 tiny babies depending on her. Momma Dumpling gave birth in the shelter and is trying to care for 6 newborn kittens in one of the loudest, most stressful places imaginable. Sherbet is also waiting with her 5 little ones.

That is 18 lives total.

RPM is hoping to get all three families to safety, but the cost adds up quickly. Vet care is about $150 per life, and transport for each mom and litter is around $250 per family.

To save all three families, RPM needs to raise about $3,450.

We know that sounds like a lot, but when you break it down, it is less than $200 per life for a mom cat and her babies to get the medical care, safety, and fresh start they deserve.

A whole lifetime of purrs and happiness are ahead for these sweet souls, and YOU can be the one who makes it possible.

Please consider making a donation of any amount to help RPM say yes to all three moms and all 15 of their babies.

💔4/22-Unfortunately, no one came to save Blossom and she was euthanized for space today. This good girl never got a family. 😭😭

‼️The shelter has changed their euthanasia policy resulting in losing dogs without warning on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.‼️

4/6-Blossom is hopeful that someone will choose her. She keeps looking out of her kennel waiting for someone to make her part of the family. Her new doggy friend is great, but nothing beats a family of your very own.
