Get Your Squeee! Part Two

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Do you remember the Community Concern 4 Cats kitchen clinic Mom L helps with? I hope you do. I posted my first “Get Your Squeee” on November 7, 2016.

As I said back in November, Mom L and Dr Josie have lots of patients so I am presenting a few more for your “squeeeing”!

I have more to come but it seems a good time at the start of a New Year to remind all of us what cat rescue really means.

Just to add to your enjoyment, I am gonna give you a series of photos of three cats and the Cat Kitchen Clinic. In comments, please give me a set of captions for one or more of the series. These series tell a story for each cat’s experience at the clinic. Can you make up that story?

Ok my pals!

  1. Pick one of the series of photos
  2. In comments tell me how you would caption each photo to express what the cat was experiencing.

Make them fun! All of these cats are adoptable rescues from community cat colonies or rescued stray cats.

I will post the captions on Monday, January 16. Don’t let me down kitties, I know you can all do some mind melding to get inside these kitties heads and know just what they are thinkin’.

Momma Kat’s Hope Chest Is Complete—Now She Needs Her Home

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Finally Momma Kat’s Hope Chest is filled! The generosity of fellow bloggers, cat brands and pet product suppliers was overwhelming. Several even made sure to include items for Momma Kat’s five kittens as well.

As you can imagine, Momma Kat’s rescue is dependent on partnerships between my local municipal shelter, Contra Costa Animal Services and bay area transfer partners. Please notice I did not say  “Momma Kat’s rescue was dependent…”. I said “…is dependent…” because she will not be truly “rescued” until she has her own loving permanent guardians to care for her.

I want to ask my readers to consider finding some green papers to help the two primary partners who collaborated to bring about the early stages of her rescue. And if you don’t have any green papers or silver coins to share then please, share these two organizations who are responsible for the fact that Momma Kat is alive and well today.

First, Contra Costa Animal Services (CCAS) is my county’s shelter. Their field services Officer John responded to the call from the public about finding Momma Kat badly injured in their front yard.  Please consider donating to CCAS’ Animal Benefit Fund to help other animals who without CCAS would never be alive and able to find caring homes.

Next, please think about making a donation to Bright Haven who is a transfer partner with CCAS. Bright Haven stepped up and took on Momma Kat and her five kittens knowing that Momma Kat required serious surgery. You can make a donation here to help other animals just like Momma Kat.

Next up, the contents of Momma Kat’s Hope Chest! Please be sure to visit their websites to learn more about each contributor.

Door Buddy

Mom L learned about Door Buddy at the 2016 Blog Paws Conference. I decided that Momma Kat ought to have one of these just in case her new family has a woofie or small child. And Door Buddy donated not one but two!

Classy Pet Food Bowls

The founder decide to not only provide Momma Kat with a water bowl and a food bowl, but also to provide each kitten with their own food bowl too! And she made sure the girl kittens have pink and the boys have blue!!

Kitty’Scape Basic Kit Cat Tree by Solvit

Mom L asked the President of DH&A, a marketing and public relations company, if any of their cat brand clients might be willing to donate to Momma Kat’s Hope Chest. Next thing I knew I was pawing at the door for Mom L to bring in this heavy package. Thank you to Miss Jo and her clients for their generosity!

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Do you remember the Community Concern 4 Cats kitchen clinic Mom L helps with? I hope you do. I have posted about it several times over the last year or so. Here, here, here.

Mom L has gone to the kitchen clinic the last few weeks and I asked her to share some of her photos on my blog. Because she has lots of patients, I am gonna make this a four part series. Hang on with you paws cuz you are gonna have some fun!!

You are gonna start squeeeeing right away, then have some ohhhs and ahhhhs.

The marmie/ginger kitten takes a bit of time to catch on—but he does eventually!

Danger stranger

Now the realization…

suspicion

And then the plea to Ceiling Cat…

calling Ceiling Cat

Final understanding…

Why me?

Next up the scaredy cat tabby boy.

Furriends?

So much for his hopes.

You're kidding

Yup, that’s in your future buddy.

Call for Mom

And then there was the feral adult female cat who needed her toofies and throat checked. Doc Josie got one really fast look and that kitty was GONE! She launched outta that towel wrap at warp speed and flew across the kitchen island and back again. Thankfully Ms. Gemma from CC4C is an expert at capturing all kinds of energetic cats!

You're kidding, right?

 

Next up!

Worried kitten

And so it goes at all of CC4C Kitchen Clinics. Never a dull moment!!

Stay tuned for Part Two in Get Your Squee Going!
