SoCal Surviving Strays Animal Rescue

I have the BEST update!

I have found an amazing partner to join our rescue team!

I like to say team since it takes a village to survive the rescue world. I have lots of people who help but 99% of the work falls on me, Ashley, and I do my best but some days I feel overwhelmed trying to care for so many, get them into the vet, pay for everything, and at the end of the day to find homes for them. That in itself is A LOT of work!

Faith is one of my fellow dog adopters, dog groomers, neonate bottle feeder- turned kitten adopter, and is now battling three rescue kittens with ringworm .😩 She jumped at the opportunity to partner up with me. Faith will be there in the places I fall short. This means an extra hand in networking the rescues. Helping to find them the best homes. As well as being the extra support I’ve desperately needed. She’s a stay at home mom with a sensitive heart, a HUGE animal lover, and fellow Norco resident.

I’m so thankful to have met her and all the amazing people that help me provide care for all the stray animals. ❤️🙌

Our rescue has three sweet boys ready to go home next week. We are located in Norco.
John, Jacob and Jingleheimer.
They’re 3 months old. Neutered dewormed vaccinated and microchipped.

Their adoption is reduced to less than what we pay. Discounted if two are adopted together.

All our rescues are Indoor Only. We put a lot of time and money into saving them from being outdoors we want to keep them in a safe indoor home forever.

Please reach out if interested. Our foster has been amazing and keeping them together until adopted but that means more money spent on food. Hoping they find a loving home soon. ❤️

Look at sweet Gracie adapting in the indoor life with her new cat sibling. ❤️ They said it’s been slow for her to warm up to everyone but she’s coming around more and more for affection. They catch her playing at night with her new sister even though they act like they aren’t sure about each other during the day 😆
Thankful for the people who adopt the older cats. I understand the hesitation but they are my biggest successes.

These sweet babies will be ready for their new home in 2 weeks!

We are working on Cayenne on the top photo to open up more. She comes to us with the cutest meow but when we approach her she’s all talk and hides 😆

She loves to play in boxes and we find her lounging in the cutest positions.

Her adoption is only $100 to hopefully find someone who is patient enough to take in a shy kitty. She will come with a full container of churrus and a sling to feed her and help her open up. Now that her family was adopted we decided to keep her solo to work more with her and it’s definitely working. ❤️

Unfortunately Cinnamons adopter says she’s been breaking out with a rash and can no longer keep her. I’m sure her babies will be happy to see her back.

Please share her sweet face to anyone who might be interested in adopting a 2yr old longhaired adult cat. ❤️

Say HELLO to a few of our fostered babies ❤️
90% of them have their appointments to be vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and neutered next month. That means adoptions are coming in hot!
If any of them catch your eye keep an eye on adopt a pet and petfinder where they’ll be posted first.
We will also have the beautiful 2 year old momma lynx point Siamese available for adoption as well. We named her Cali-sparkles.

Kitten prices START at $200 to cover vaccines dewormer microchip and S/N. The less “desired” kittens are reduced when they can’t find adopters. We also reduce the mommas adoptions at a loss so they aren’t left behind. One of the mommas was a TNR. Adoptions helps us get those mommas fixed to stop the cycle! A lot of kittens come to us sick so there are typically vet bills we incur as well.

In the end it’s all about balance and finding the rescues the best home possible. ❤️

I’m running low on Wet Food for the kittens.
I’ve been ordering a 24 pack every day 🥴
I know it seems excessive but some don’t have their mommas to nurse from so it helps to keep them hydrated.

I’m also running low on the paper pellets. These are easier for me to see what’s going on with their gut vs regular litter that hides it.
They aren’t the most budget friendly but they also make clean up much easier when I’ve got multiple littler boxes to clean every day

Puppy pads are also helpful to throw away when they make a mess.

I’ve been using the Amazon boxes to cut up and make toys for them too.

Rescue disinfectant is also my go to to keep everything sanitized so I run out of that every week it seems.

As I’ve said this will be my last batch of rescues kitties until I can get a partner on board and hopefully build something better for my kitty set up. I’ll still help stray cats get fixed but I’ve been spending SO much lately I need to find a better way so I don’t have to give up cats entirely.

If anyone feels like donating some of these items it would be greatly appreciated ❤️

I took in her litter after someone had asked me to help and sent photos of them much younger.

Like always I said yes. I had a foster lined up and thought they would be easy to find homes for……………………..
The people who brought them to me did donate a bunch of items which I appreciate greatly. BUT they left out that the original photos were of them much younger AND all of them had upper respiratory issues expect for one. ☝️ This one, she growled at us like we were her enemy. I was stressing big time. I couldn’t give them to my foster knowing they were sick. After racking up some vet bills again I was able to find the long haired ones homes quickly after they were fixed.
But this one worried me. I wasn’t sure if she would be adoptable. But once she was alone and had been with us for two months she turned a corner. She became a purring machine. A lover. AND finally I had an amazing family adopt her. I love how spoiled she is. I love getting photo updates. It makes up for all the stress I had originally. ❤️

I love happy updates from my rescue families ❤️
