Mt Juliet, TN. This tiny kitten was heard crying in a front yard in Murfreesboro, TN. The homeowner noticed a significant wound on the neck, so we had her bring him right in. As suspected after looking the wound over, it was clear that a botfly was still inside the neck. Our vet, Dr. Gables of VetMed Animal Health removed the botfly, and we are feeling good that he will make a full recovery in a foster home, where he is eating well. These emergencies continue to hit us daily so donations greatly appreciated.

Mt Juliet, TN. DONATIONS GREATLY NEEDED! Meet Hillary, who was pulled off the ground in Sumner County as a serious medical case. Hillary was microchipped and owners were contacted, who told us they no longer wanted ownership of her. You will see the wrap- up at the end of the video by our wonderful vet, Dr. Gables of VetMed Animal Health, who found a lodged BB pellet, likely shot at close range, as the damage was significant. He pieced her leg back together and she has an approximate 6-week healing period. These procedures are very costly, and we continue to say "yes" to these critical cases, because our hearts won't let them stay on the ground and suffer. Thank you for your support and we will update you very soon on her progress.

Mt Juliet, TN. These two neonates arrived in pretty critical condition yesterday after being found abandoned on a property in Mt Juliet, TN. They had clearly been without food for some time. We have them with an experienced bottle feeder where they are still getting stabilized. Thank you for your support with these critical cases, and donations are greatly appreciated. We will update you soon on this duo.

We ended this gorgeous week with TWENTY-ONE ADOPTIONS! The pictures are incredible, as we captured some very special moments between the adopters and their newest family members! To say that the the kitties were pleased with their new families, is an understatement! Thank you so much to everyone who stepped forward this week. You all have such a bright future ahead! Special thanks to the family who adopted Mama Mitzi and Mama Bitzi together. Those two have been through so much, and have such an amazing backstory, so this really touched our hearts so deeply.

Now that we have spaces to fill, be sure to stay tuned for our newest intakes coming this next week! Have a wonderful evening, and keep those adoptions coming, and thanks so much again!

Happy Saturday morning!! We are MAMA HAIRDO & THE MEN'S HAIRCUT BABIES! Why "Men's Haircuts" you ask? Well, we are an all-male litter, but we also care a great amount about our appearance and style. If we were human, you'd catch us checking ourselves out a lot in the mirror, and maybe spending too much time getting ourselves ready...that kind of thing. Maybe we are a wee bit vain, but our mama always told us to "use what we got", so what we "got" are great looks, great style, and great personalities! Also, the woman that found us and has been feeding us is a hair stylist!

Now you might notice our mama, Mama Hairdo, isn't with us today. She is what True Rescue calls an "FFF" - Fully Feral Feline. She, along with the 5 of us, had to get trapped on a property in Hermitage, TN. True Rescue did all of the trapping and got us out of there. To say our mama hates humans is an understatement. She is currently awaiting her spay time in a human house, and is very unhappy about it. She has an amazing property to go back to, where she will be fed and well-cared for, so she will continue to live her best life (without any other babies). As for us...we are total sell-outs! Oh, we sold out big-time to the humans! Though we are still on the shy side, we love everything you guys throw at us...body and head scritches, treats, food (love the canned), and most of all, love. We need all of these things, but in a more permanent environment - which is where YOU come into play!

We are currently residing at the True Rescue shelter located at 12110 Lebanon Rd in Mt. Juliet, TN. We are up for adoption starting today, and the shelter is open 7 days a week between the hours of 11-3. There is another big ADOPTION EVENT happening at PetSmart, so both the shelter and PetSmart will have kittens, and we are staying at the shelter. You can also find hundreds of adult cats here at the shelter as well, so come on over and say "hi"! Thanks for reading our story, and we hope we "make the cut" into one of your homes!

Good morning! How's everybody doing this brisk Saturday morning?! We are FINN, FRECKLE & FROST, and we are at your service! We will be offering ourselves up for adoption today at the big ADOPTION EVENT happening today at the PetSmart in Mt. Juliet, TN, between the hours of 11-3.

We are from the Cedar Creek Marina in Mt. Juliet, TN. There has been a long-time issue with cats there, and True Rescue, along with some amazing people that live over there, have been helping to stop cats from having babies, and to keep kittens from staying there and continuing to multiply. Our mama is truly feral, and will remain there after being fixed, since they have shelter and food. They have been vigilantly trying to trap her to get her fixed, along with the remaining few. We realize that many people wish we were never born, but we are here, and have been removed from the ground so that we have a chance at a better life. Honestly, there might not have even been a life to live had we have stayed out there. Now we have a chance at finding homes, and we are going to shoot our shot today!

Thanks for your attention and kindness, and we sure do hope to see some friendly faces come our way today at the Adoption Event. Have a wonderful day, and enjoy this great Fall weather we are having!

Hello, and TGIF!! We are BUNGEE & ELLIOT! The biggest surprise here is that we are NOT brothers! We just came in close to the same time, we are almost the exact same age (just over 8 weeks old), and have been fostered together, so technically we call each other "brother". Here are our stories, told by each one of us:

BUNGEE: My story was well known, because I was witnessed falling out of an approximately 35' tree in Cross Plains, TN. Other than a bloody face, I survived my fall, and lived to tell about it. Do you like my ferocious pose? Actually, I was playing with a toy, I'm not mean at all, just a feisty, playful boy!

ELLIOT: I was found under a deck by a family who has been helping my feral mama. This was in Mt. Juliet, TN. She disappeared, and I was found with my sibling, who had already passed. Lucky for me, I was still alive and fighting, and was able to go into an amazing foster home who cared for me. My new "brother", Bungee, arrived just 3 days later, and we have been together ever since.

We would love to be adopted together, if possible. Our stories are both ones of survival, and we hope to turn our near-death experiences into hope for a bright future. If you think we would make a great addition to your family, please fill out the adoption application below. We will be at the PetSmart ADOPTION EVENT happening tomorrow in Mt. Juliet, TN from 11-3. You don't want to miss out on our sweet faces and personalities. Thank you for supporting us in any way you can. We are both lucky to be alive, and wouldn't be without the support of this rescue. Hope to see you tomorrow!!

UPDATE: Thanks to the views and shares on this video, Moxie has an adopter already! This family has a kitten already that needs a playmate. We feel it is the perfect situation, and they have already been approved. We are so happy Moxie found a home so quickly!

Mt. Juliet, TN. Meet Moxie! Moxie came in as an owner surrender due to being unable to afford her. We have just gotten her fully vetted, including a Spay, so she is ready for adoption! If you're interested in Moxie, please fill out the adoption application below. She is the sweetest girl!

Good evening! We are MAMA MONET & THE WORK OF ART BABIES! I was pulled off of the ground in Lafayette, TN, after giving birth to my 4 babies. They were just 6 days old when we were brought into True Rescue, our saving grace. We were placed into an amazing foster home, and I got to watch my babies blossom into fine art. Picasso Girl's face was the whole reason for this theme, too! They are all just lovely, if I do say so myself, and they will be at the big ADOPTION EVENT taking place this Saturday, Oct. 17th at PetSmart in Mt. Juliet, TN between the hours of 11-3. You just HAVE to come and meet them in person!! There will be LOTS of other kitties, so you will have many choices, I promise! I'll be up for adoption after I get spayed, so be on the lookout for this hot mama soon!

Thanks for hearing our story, and please know how much we all appreciate the families willing to step up for us once-homeless kitties. Have a wonderful day, and we'll see you Saturday!
