Got a little time and a love for cats? Let’s make their space sparkle.

UPDATE
Sule had his vet recheck and was cleared for neuter surgery TODAY! His heart is sounding much better on meds, which he'll stay on for the foreseeable future.
He's still anemic, but that should improve as he continues to heal. If any concerns pop up, an echo will help us dig deeper. For now, he's stable, making progress, and thriving in foster care. A dental is on the horizon, but today—we’re celebrating the wins!

UPDATE ON SULE!
We’re relieved to share that Sule is stable and doing much better. His thyroid levels are normal, and the vets believe his heart issue may be linked to his time as a stray, where poor nutrition took a toll. The good news is that with proper care, this can be reversed.
After 3 injections to lower his heart rate and reduce fluid, his x-ray showed significant improvement. He’s responding well to his meds, and his breathing has been much easier thanks to Furosemide.
While we’re cautiously optimistic, Sule is anemic, and it’s non-regenerative, which could point to a bone marrow issue. We're waiting on the full CBC results. His wound culture confirmed he’s on the right antibiotics, so we're treating the infection, which may be contributing to his anemia.
For now, we’re letting him heal and will recheck in a week, or sooner if needed. Thank you for all your love and support — it means the world to us.
SULE GETS A SECOND CHANCE !
Earlier this week, a good Samaritan found a severely injured stray cat and reached out for help. Many people, including compassionate cat advocates, offered support and funds toward the cat's veterinary care. The finder brought the cat to Animal Humane Society Coon Rapids, which was unable to intake the cat. A community service officer, then, took the cat, but shockingly, released/dumped the cat into an unfamiliar area -- injured and vulnerable.
