Cat Rescue Crew

🐾 Aloka was being so cute today in front of the thousands of people who welcomed and joined us for our Peace Gathering and Concluding Ceremony at the Lincoln Memorial!

Even in such a grand and sacred space in Washington, D.C., Aloka’s playful spirit brought a gentle smile to everyone’s face, reminding us that joy is a beautiful part of peace. We are so grateful to everyone who walked with us and shared in these lighthearted moments together.

May you and all beings be well, happy and at peace. 🙏

Putting your feral / community cat shelter inside a greenhouse adds an extra layer of warmth and insulation. It also gives the cat a way to be outside their cat house and see all around them, but still be sheltered from the wind and the elements. Just leave a little bottom corner unzipped a little bit for them to get in and out of the greenhouse.

For those asking where those can be purchased, if you search “mini/small greenhouse” on Amazon, there are a lot of options. The size needed would depend on the shelter you have. I would recommend measuring your shelter and finding one on Amazon that would be big enough to fit your shelter inside.

Bottom side flaps can be weighed down with bricks so the greenhouse doesn’t blow away in the wind. 

Edited to add:
This is meant for feral cats living outdoors that cannot be scooped up and brought inside. The comments saying to just bring them inside are absolutely ridiculous. We are not talking about leaving pets outside, of course they should be inside!! This is a shelter option for feral cats who live outside because we are in an overpopulation crisis. There are not even enough homes for the friendly cats, much less placement indoors to work with feral cats on not being feral. 

When are we going to stop with the fireworks?

A fragile life was lost at Edinburgh Zoo when a baby red panda died after intense stress linked to nearby fireworks. Officials confirmed the young animal showed clear distress following Bonfire Night celebrations. The tragedy highlights how sudden noise can devastate sensitive wildlife, even in protected spaces, and reignites calls for quieter celebrations around animals who cannot escape the sound.

Microchipping should be required by law and a universal system.

A stray cat brought to a shelter turned out to be missing for 443 days since Hurricane Helene. Thanks to her microchip, Gabby is finally home: http://www.wcnc.com/article/weather/hurricane/helene/microchip-reunites-cat-with-family-hurricane-helene/51-cab98a81-1ca2-4c54-9d5b-982970edde3e?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_WCNC_Charlotte
