Helping Community Cats One Feline Friend at a Time

Recently we were contacted by our friend Pat M who was helping a community cat caretaker who found one of their feral cats in distress with an injured tail that was severely damaged and required a tail amputation.

With the help of Forgotten Cats, the cat had the tail amputation completed and after recovering, he will be released back to his colony.

Helping community cats is a big part of our mission and we are thankful to be able to pay for the tail amputation for this cat to make him more comfortable after sustaining this injury.

Dog on Kill List Saved at Last Second and Give a Second Chance at Life

Thank you Sarama Animal Rescue for taking a chance on Doc!

We are honored to donate toward his medical care and hope he feels better soon!

From Sarama Animal Rescue, “Doc was time stamped for ten am this morning at one of our partner shelters. Because a foster stepped up we were able to pull him and he’s safe now ❤️

While he seems stable, it was suspected that he was hit by a car prior to coming to the shelter. Upon examination it was discovered that he has pulmonary contusions and liver injury from his recent hit by car (both of which should resolve without treatment) but his jaw abnormality is old and likely due to ANOTHER blunt force trauma earlier in life.”

UPDATE – January 31, 2023 “Doc has to go back to the vet yesterday and spend the day there. He stopped eating and wouldn’t take his meds and his fever went back up. Thankfully his fever went down and he started to eat again. The staff got him some chicken nuggets which he loved. We are hoping he continues to eat as take meds orally and continues to feel better. The vet said the next step would be for him to see an internal medicine specialist. We have an appt early March but are on a cancellation list as we hope to get him soon earlier. If he starts to decline we will take him through the ER.

He’s getting lost of TLC from his foster family and is very much loved. We want to thank everyone who donated so far for Doc. We really appreciate your help. We want to give a special thank you to @philadoptables for a $400 medical grant that will help with the costs of Doc’s medical care ❤️❤️❤️“

Thanks to our friends at Rise Again Animal Rescue, chronically ill Beebee, a nine-year-old cat in need is safe! From allergies, IBD, and stomatitis to a host of other autoimmune issues, Beebee is a survivor of a breeding operation, hoarding situation, and severe neglect.

Beebee deserves a lifetime of love and the care he deserves which is why we are pleased to donate toward his care. He is undergoing lengthy immunosuppressive therapy and will soon be undergoing a dental procedure.

Feel better, Beebee!

Community Cat Gets Lifesaving Care for Injured Paw

When Community Cat, Ashtar, found himself with an injured paw, a good Samaritan and cat lover reached out to Philadoptables for help!

One evening, Ashtar showed up for his nightly outdoor meal when his caregiver noticed he could hardly walk and had a severely swollen paw.
Concerned for his well-being, his caregivers immediately contacted us for help with his injury.

Here at Philadoptables, we love Community Cats and their well-being, especially this winter, is so important to us! We offered to cover Ashtar’s medical care and neuter surgery.

Thank you to his caregivers for going the extra mile to find help and care for him. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of Community Cats.
