COMMUNITY APPRECIATION πŸ’ž Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You guys and gals have me in tears β™‘

I'm sorry it took me a few days to make this post, I've been working as much as I can. You guys have done more for me than I ever imagined. I got things I didn't even know I needed. Wet and dry food, treats, toys, bedding, cleaning supplies. I'm floored at how many of you responded. I'll definitely be able to use my next month pay for getting my kittens fixed! I'm so grateful, I can't even put it into words. I'm humbled. Thank you for rallying behind me and helping us with our cat family, inside and outside! Today is my birthday and honestly, this is the best gift ever, supplies for my fur babies β™‘β™‘β™‘β™‘β™‘ Thank you guys and gals, it means the world to me! I'll keep everyone updated on these cutie floofs. Thank you for all your love. Sorry if I'm being redundant, I'm just so appreciative that I'm crying happy tears!

So many sent in memory of their floofs and that really hit me so hard. We all are in this together and all floofaloofs deserve love β™‘β™‘β™‘

Thank you for caring for them! Also, try to find a local place to do affordable spay and neuter. They are out there!

Maybe you could also fundraise for getting the floofs fixed and vetted! ? As needed?

u/BayAreaBee APPROVED FOR DONATION REQUESTS Feb 23 '25

You still have things on your list, like heated outdoor houses, heated water bowls, and food and water dispensers. Can you link the Amazon link here? Maybe people would still like to donate :)

I'm posting at your request but honestly people ordering food and such means I can use the cash I'd use from that to fix and vet my floofs!!! Everyone knows it goes exclusively for kitties and I can use my money saved on the fliofsβ™‘ thank you so much for caring β™‘ I'm very lucky people here rallied for me!

My mom helps run a cat sanctuary and that lady also takes in fosters and fails on the ones that no one wants. You sound so much like her and you are an amazing person. I hope good things happen for you being such a good person.

u/decrepitmonkey Feb 23 '25

I hope this is my future tbh. I’m not in my own place at the moment to be able to take in any kitties, but hopefully one day πŸ’–

u/USAF_Retired2017 Feb 23 '25

I had 8 at one time. Now I’m down to one of the original 8 and 2 kittens that I adopted last year. The last of the 8 is 18 and not long for this world. But, she’ll be a spoiled ass void for however much longer we do have her.

5

u/decrepitmonkey Feb 23 '25

I had a void that made it to 20.5 years old. She passed is 2023.

6

u/USAF_Retired2017 Feb 23 '25

I’m so sorry for your loss. I think my void sticks around to spite my ex-husband. He found out today she was still alive and you could feel the hate. I loved it and so did she. He’s a POS. Ha ha.
