Share your favourite pics of your ginger babies please!!
I have never ‘owned’ a ginger but I have fostered a gazilion and I will not tolerate any ‘one brain cell’ jokes here 😂 but seriously, the way a ginger sees the world and gives love is just so special ❤️

Without fosters we can never say ‘yes’ when a call for help is received. Fostering really does save lives, and yes, it is hard to say goodbye but if it is the perfectly paired home for the kittie and you understand you were their stepping stone to forever happiness, it gets a bit easier!

Fostering is an act of love keeping a cat or dog, safe on their rescue journey! It is hard not to get attached, but when the next step in their journey arrives, your brave heart needs to let them continue on the rescue journey - their forever family! Fostering saves lives!

Meet Den, a little 4-month-old lady ready for her forever home! She was found at the Silverton Curry Den and we didn’t want to call her Curry 😂 please adopt her and give her a better name 😉. She tested negative for FELV and FIV and is vaccinated. Her steri will be included in her adoption fee.
Den takes a while to decompress but then she is a love-bug. She will not work in a home with young children, she’s a 1 or 2 person cat, no chaos. She has accepted her foster mom’s doggies but other pets also need to be calm. We have no idea what happened to her before she was rescued, she is tame but spooks easily.

Happy 7 week birthday babies! Very, very busy, super cute and as sweet as can be! All the babies have been booked for adoption once they are old enough and had their first vaccination. Then just their sweet mommy Shiloh who still needs a home (once she has been steri’d). So proud of Shiloh for being an awesome mom after giving birth 36 hours after she arrived in our care ❤️

So true! Rescued cats are the best ❤️

Nothing beats a street cat who finally believes they are safe inside. That loyalty is earned. 🧡

Yup…

“To love a rescuer you must love all of her. You must love the scars covering her body from panicked and hurt animals she was trying to help. You must love her fractured heart, that has been broken so many times she no longer even takes the time to mend the pieces.

To love a rescuer, you must embrace her grit and determination, and know that although she fights a war she can never win, she can and does win a few battles. You must love the tears she will shed over those she lost. You must give her comfort that she refuses to accept, as she blames herself for things she could have never foreseen.

To love a rescuer you must acknowledge the rage she feels towards the world at times, and know that anger is driven by a love of life too few have. You must give her space and room to cry and mourn for the losses that others have caused out of carelessness or cruelty.

To love a rescuer you must understand her passion to heal and save is a calling, not a choice. You must accept that to save animals is part of her soul and without that she could never be happy.

To love a rescuer you must be patient. You must accept her work comes first. She will forgo sleep, forgo food, forgo her life for animals in need. She will work tirelessly until her body and mind fail her completely and she cannot go on.

To Love a rescuer, you must be strong. You must not be threatened by her focus and love of animals. You must accept that the things you love about her, the strength and convictions and loyalty are also what drives her sense of duty to animals in need; you cannot have one without the other.

To love a rescuer you must never ask her to choose, because she will, and it will not be you. “
