Rescue

WEST LONDON – A cat that was successfully rescued from the blaze in West London is now being hailed as a hero and has been dubbed the ‘Grenfell Tower cat’.

Paucho, who is a grey-and-white pedigree, is currently being looked after in a nearby church.

It is believed the kitty was somehow separated from his owners.

As you probably already know, kittens need a week to ten days to open up their days after they’re born. They can’t see well for weeks afterward and that’s completely normal. At this point of their life, kittens are pretty vulnerable and need special care, but imagine if you’ve found a kitten only a few hours old. That’s exactly what one Imgur user found.

One day bmusser (e.g. the Imgur user) was leaving home from work when he heard a faint cry coming from nearby bushes. He went over the fence and found a tiny kitty with eyes closed and the umbilical cord still attached! It was obvious that his mama gave birth not minutes ago, but she was nowhere to be found.

The man wouldn’t leave the kitty like that. He took the baby home and his wife went to the pet store to get baby formula. They fed the kitten with a tiny bottle every couple of hours. It spent most of the time sleeping and they weren’t really sure if he would survive without his momma.

The next day, they took the baby to a vet and he confirmed the kitty’s not a couple of days old. His eyes and ears were closed, but his umbilical cord fell off on its own. The vet warned them that the kitty needs special care as he doesn’t have his mother with him.

Unlike other animals, kittens develop pretty fast and it wasn’t a few days later before Casper showed the first signs of growth. “He usually sleeps on our feet or shoulders,” bmusser said.

In a week, Casper’s chances were looking much better. He started eating on his own as soon as his eyes opened and just like any cat, Casper was up to usual cat stuff in a few weeks.

Now, adventures are pretty fun but also exhausting, so Casper regularly takes his naps.

He wasn’t alone on his journey – he had a buddy besides his mom and dad.

WEST VIRGINIA: Jovi was brought to a local veterinary office, by a gentleman that had found her with her eyes already ruptured, probably due to untreated infection, possibly due to trauma.

Two of the vet techs at that office offered to fund her surgery and medical care if Pet Helpers could foster little Jovi and find her an appropriate Forever Home.

“She had her surgery for bilateral enucleation (surgical removal of both eyes) October 15 and did well, coming to foster with me October 17. She was discharged with liquid pain medication and liquid oral antibiotic twice daily,” says foster mom, Mim …

“I was a little fearful of my ability to provide her with appropriate care since I have never fostered a blind animal. I’ve fostered several with medical issues including one eye, one ear, pelvic/hip surgery, severe demodex mange, gunshot wound…unfortunately the list goes on, but never a blind furbaby.”

“This little kitten has amazed me from day one! She steps slowly and deliberately, using her feet to sense her location as well as her whiskers. She uses her litterbox faithfully, is eating and drinking water like a little champion.”

“Even though she is thought to only be around 5 weeks old, she doesn’t much care for kitten milk replacer, so is eating kitten canned food as well as hard kitten food. I have her set up in a medium size wire crate with a “second floor” to give her more room.”

“I knew she wouldn’t be able to see the second floor or jump up on it to utilize her extra space, so used a corrugated scratching board as a ramp for her to use. Within 24 hours she had mastered going up the ramp. I would talk to her and walk her down the ramp and after just three times, she mastered the down maneuver as well. She now freely goes up and down the ramp with confidence. She began playing with toys two days ago, all of her toys are “noise” toys, ones with bells or jingles so she can find them.”

“Jovi has investigated her entire crate from one corner to the last on each floor. She fosters with several other canines and felines and has no fear of any of them. In fact, they all seem to sense she is a special little girl, giving her licks of love and being quite gentle with her.”

“She raises her head when she hears her name, will stand up as soon as she hears the crate being unlatched as she already understands something is going to happen. She loves to be brushed with her own purple human toothbrush; I’ve read that a toothbrush feels like a mother cat licking a kitten, tried it with Jovi and from her reaction it is a success,” said Mim during her interview with us here at The Best Cat Page.

“Her only bad habit is play biting a little bit too hard and without a momma or siblings it is up to me to change that. When it occurs, I tell her “easy” in a firm tone and withdraw my hand, then gently start petting her again after a few moments with praising words. She seems to be catching on to the word itself and action, so I have my fingers crossed that it is working.”

“Consistency is the key with a blind animal. Jovi’s litterbox, food and water bowls are always left in the same position in her crate. When she grows a bit and is allowed to be free roaming, it will be necessary to keep paths clear for her to maneuver and remember. Of course, she should never be outside unless in a harness and the outside world may prove to be overwhelming for her…only time will tell.”

“We are not sure when Jovi will be medically cleared as adoptable, but have already received several applications for her adoption. Until that time, she will foster with me. She continues to amaze me with her resilience and make me smile and laugh at her bravery and spunk. Jovi is a beautiful soul and I am privileged to be her foster mom.”

Jovi’s story and photos have touched us so deeply here at The Best Cat Page, we wanted to share her story with all of you. What a gorgeous, little angel!

She is currently under the care of Pet Helpers, Inc

If anyone has any questions about Jovi or would like to just send some love and prayers her way, send an email to information@pethelpersinc.org

This man, Bobby Knight, is a dear friend to all of the Greenville cat lawyers and he has made for himself a name nursing sick gibs and pussycats back to health. He’s from Greenville and is 55 times youthful. Back in 2009 he’d to retire due to health issues( physical.)

Within a time, he was battling depression coupled by an overwhelmed with feeling useless. That’s when a friend of his invited Bobby to tag along with her to Greenville County Animal Care( GCACS), which is well known as a high input and high kill sanctum for pussycats. In 2014,53.4 of the pussycats entering the sanctum didn’t get out alive.
After visiting the sanctum quite a many times, Bobby was eager to learn how he might be of backing the pussycats. He spoke with Susan Bufano, a awful cat advocate who’s no longer employed by GCACS, and asked what he could do to save the pussycats there.

Susan explained how short- staffed the sanctum was( and still are) on foster parents and Bobby soon learned his gift was in minding for sick pussycats and gibs. And now, he takes them home and nursers them back to health, at which time they go up for relinquishment or to a deliverance when they’re healthy enough for a ever home.

Man Battling Depression Finds New Purpose In Helping Sick pussycats

Bobby still gets overwhelmed at times, for illustration when a kitty is simply too sick to be saved. still, the joy that comes with seeing his babies getting espoused or saved puts him on top of the world again. pussycats formerly in his care have set up homes each over the United States, and Bobby gets streamlined stories, as well as prints of them, on a regular base.

Although the sanctum has come his alternate home, Bobby is like all of us and recognizes the problems harbors face. For one, there are noway enough foster parents for the number of kitties who end up in the sanctum.
People just keep coming and coming and coming with waste after waste of unwanted gibs or to drop off pussycats they no longer want occasionally with no reason.

Bobby would like Greenville to have a better TNR program to check the slapdash cat population. Greenville lately got blessing on a program called the Free roving Cat Program, and will have to report back to Greenville County Council in a time with information on whether the program is a success.
In addition to thanking the staff and levies at GCACS, Bobby also has a special communication for his former charges( the gibs) saying

“ I would like to thank the hundreds of gibs I’ve fostered for helping me to beat my depression and feeling useless. I’ve entered a lot of kitty love for the last five times. ”
