Roman, the little kitten we rescued from the road goes for his 5 week appointment tomorrow. His eyes are clear, his energy level is through the roof. So much so that I've given him the nickname "crack kitten" the dude never stops, he's 100mph all the time.
I expect he'll be given the all clear. He has bonded to our most recent feral cat that adopted us a year and a half ago. I've been pleasantly surprised this feral grown cat would be so careful with his little play mate.
We Had someone drop off a few roosters near our house this week. That is common it seems we've got the reputation of people that take in the unwanted. Yes it's inconvenient, but life is life, it all matters. So we roll with it. We literally have about 27 free range roosters we corral into various coops at night.
I'll wait to tell you our story, why we had to give up the official rescue farm and just keep the status quo and help what we can. I'm in my feels tonight and would come completely apart. But I will say this........ Volunteer at your local shelters, walk dogs, read to them, play with the cats. Get them used to people, it can get them adopted. If you own some land do the research, learn about farm animals, if your local rescues take in neglected or unwanted animals offer them a permanent home if you can.
Since COVID and inflation many rescues have stopped taking in, those that haven't are struggling. Donate locally, network..... Offer whatever resources you can. Buy them gift cards, donate food. If you've ever loved an animal along the way in your life honor them by volunteering, by donating, by giving, even an encouraging word.
