Athena, the Goddess of War. We are celebrating one week of survival for this little girl. It’s nothing short of a miracle that she has made it when her mother and her littermates did not. Keep the prayers and good thoughts coming. Every day that she makes it gives us more hope for her future. A huge shout out to our board members and volunteers that took a shift to bottle feed this baby every 2 to 3 hours around the clock for the past week. Athena is now with a seasoned bottle feeder who specializes in these tiny neonates. We are hopeful 🙏🏻🐾 ... See MoreSee Less

Oh, it’s definitely kitten season. I’m not sure we’ve ever had so many kittens. In fact, we are now full and unable to accept any more at this time.Loki was found in bad shape on a dead end road in the middle of nowhere. Not likely he walked there on his own as this long haired beauty is just a tiny babe. His eyes were a mess, he had an upper respiratory infection, all the things. Some medication and some love and care has turned this boy around. He is negative for feline leukemia and FIV. He will start vaccinations next week as he was too sick when he first went to the vet.Loki needs a foster to adopt home in Central or SE Ohio so he can continue his vet care at one of our two clinics in Logan or Somerset, Ohio. This cutie patootie has already mastered the litterbox and is doing great with the young children in his foster home. To apply, click the link in the comments below.

Is it obvious that it’s kitten season? Because we have FOUR more adorable kittens ready for their foster-to-adopt homes — Eeny, Meenie, Miney, and Moe! Each have their own personality. Moe and Meenie are the laid-back cuddlebugs of the group. They’ll happily climb into your lap and soak up all the love. Eenie and Miney are the busy bodies, always on the move and ready for their next adventure. They’ll all play together, but when you sit down, Moe and Meenie are usually the first to demand cuddles while the other two are still zooming around. They are litter trained and don’t seem to mind their fosters dogs at all.Whether you’re looking for one kitten or thinking about adopting a pair, the link to apply is in the comments below. ...
