🚨 HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MUM CAT AND HER FOUR KITTENS IN E7? 🚨 Two weeks ago, we were alerted to an abandoned cat carrier in a park in E7. When we attended, it was empty and no cats could be found. Since then, a black-and-white mum cat and her four kittens (two black-and-white and two black, at least 12 weeks old) had been regularly seen in the park, and the mother cat had been hopping over the fence into a garden behind for food. However nobody informed us that they were there. We received a report late Thursday evening, after the park had closed, that there was a mother and four kittens there and children had been chasing them. We attended the park on the Friday am but none of the family were there and, sadly, have not been seen since. They haven't returned to their usual feeding spots. Local residents are checking the area daily on our behalf. We're very concerned and desperately want to know they're safe. 🐾 IF YOU SEE THEM: - Please do not approach or attempt to catch them - Take a photo from a safe distance and email [email protected] - If possible, leave food nearby without frightening them away ❗️PLEASE HELP US REACH PEOPLE IN E7. The most important thing you can do right now is share this appeal in local Facebook groups, on Nextdoor and with friends, family and neighbours who live in the area. We need to reach as many local people as possible in the hope that someone knows where this little family is. Any sightings or information, however small, could make all the difference. We just want to know this mum and her four babies are safe. We’ve purposefully left out the name of the park, as we’ve had incidents in the past where well-meaning supporters have gone out looking for cats and unintentionally scared them away. If you’re visiting your local parks in E7 and spot alcats matching this description, please don’t approach them. Instead, take a photo from a safe distance and email [email protected]. ❤️ #E7 #ForestGate #Newham #EastLondon #cat #kittens

POV: You’re 5 weeks old, your foster mum mentions an all-nighter… and you take it VERY seriously. 😂 Little rescue kitten Tsunami 🧡 came into our charity with her SIX siblings and is being lovingly hand-reared by one of our amazing kitten fosterers. Tsunami has cerebellar hypoplasia, which causes tremors and makes her walking very wobbly. Last night, she suddenly collapsed and had to be rushed to the vets. After fluids and a tiny amount of pain relief (she’s only 5 weeks old 🥺), she came home for some intensive care from her foster mum. And this morning? SHE’S BACK ON HER FEET! 🥹🧡 Still cautious, but sitting up and walking without collapsing. Tsunami’s take on her big night out: “I’m feeling quite a bit better today 🧡 I can sit up again and walk without collapsing, thanks to the lovely vet and my foster mum. I did keep her up ALL night though… I thought I heard her mention something about an Ibiza say festival, so obviously I thought we were doing an all-nighter. 🪩🎶 Turns out she meant kitten care. Still, I think I brought the festival vibes. 🐾” Meanwhile, her foster mum formally requested a lie-in. No chance there! 😂🧡 #ibizavibes #KittensOfTwitter #kittenrescue #bekinditsfree @JaneFallon @rickygervais

Found in a hospital bin store Candy and her five tiny kittens are now safe at our Lewisham Centre after being rescued from an industrial bin store at a busy NHS hospital, and honestly, this is the kind of call we’re getting every single day at the moment. Amanda, who works at the hospital, had been seeing Candy around for weeks. Amanda did everything she could to keep her sheltered from the cold and rain, makeshift shelter, food, generally keeping an eye on her. The hospital porters even stepped in over the weekends. They all cared, and thank goodness they did. So when Amanda discovered Candy had given birth in the middle of the bin store, tucked between industrial bins and old medical equipment, none of us were surprised.  Heartbroken, yes. Shocked, no. This is exactly what happens when a cat is left unneutered and left to fend for herself. And it’s happening far too often. With foxes around, weekly bin collections and constant activity, Candy and her newborns were in a really dangerous spot. Amanda and a colleague spent over two hours trying to catch them before calling us. And even though we are absolutely full,  properly full, we just couldn’t leave them. Thanks to Amanda’s determination, the hospital staff’s kindness and our rescue team stepping in, Candy and her babies are now safe, warm and being properly cared for. Mum has been named after Camden & Islington NHS Trust, and her kittens are now Jellybean, Truffle, Toffee, Biscuit and Nugget.💕 They’re all doing well, and Candy is being a brilliant mum. This is the reality for us now: mums giving birth outside, abandoned cats, cruelty cases, and constant requests for help. It’s not seasonal, it’s not occasional, it’s all year, every year. We’re doing everything we can, but honestly, we’re only just holding it together. Far more cats than adopters are heading our way, and we don’t see it slowing down. If anyone would like to support our work during this incredibly busy and challenging time, we would be so grateful. Every rescue comes with the cost of food, vet care, neutering, microchipping and ongoing support. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us keep saying “yes” when cats like Candy need us. If you’re not able to donate please share.  And don’t forget  - Adopt don’t shop. Thank you 🙏  💙 Donate here: cafdonate.cafonline.org/3052… #KittenSeason #RescueCat #KittenRescue #cat #kitten #AdoptDontShop

Dumped like rubbish in the sweltering heat. Three tiny kittens were dumped in a plastic carrier on one of the hottest days we've had this year. On Tuesday 26th May, just before our phone lines closed, calls started coming in from worried residents in East London. Photos had been shared in a local WhatsApp group showing three kittens abandoned inside a clear plastic backpack carrier on a housing estate. Honestly, when we saw the photos, our hearts sank. The carrier was sitting in the heat, and the kittens were squashed together and trapped inside. Without hesitation, Amanda, one of our dedicated rescue volunteers of more than 20 years, dropped everything she was doing and rushed to the scene. Just 30 minutes later, the kittens were safely with us. They arrived overheated and lethargic, but thanks to the quick actions of the local community and our rescue team, they were given the chance they so desperately needed. Today, we're delighted to say that not only have they recovered, but they are thriving. Meet the Little Lads ❤️ Napoleon, Prince and Tom. These three boys are around three months old, full of character, and completely devoted to one another. They eat together, sleep together, play together and seek comfort in one another's company. Since arriving with us, they have been fully vet-checked, neutered, and are now ready to begin the next chapter of their lives. After everything they have endured together, we would love to see them adopted as a trio. We know finding a home for three kittens together is a big ask, but we also know that somewhere out there is a family willing to open their hearts to three little brothers who have so much love to give. Please share their story and help us find their forever family.🐾 #cats #kitten #kittenrescue #neuter #CatsLover

FOUND CAT – SOUTH LONDON We’re trying to trace the owner of this little girl who was found alone in a play park in South London. She wasn’t microchipped, but what stood out immediately was the homemade bandage wrapped around her leg. By the time she’d been reported to us and one of our team went out to help her, the smell coming from the bandage and wounds was overwhelming. Once the bandages were removed, it became clear she had a severely ingrown dew claw along with significant wounds to her leg. Our vets believe the bandaging had been done at home rather than by a veterinary practice. At the moment, our Lewisham vet team are treating her wounds and, thankfully, they are hopeful her leg can be saved. There is only a slight risk of her losing it, but close ongoing care is going to be vital while she heals. We have contacted local vets and checked missing cat pages in case she genuinely went missing after the bandage was applied, but so far nobody has come forward. There are houses backing onto the park where she was found and we’ll continue making enquiries locally. We can’t say for certain what happened to her. We suspect she may have been abandoned, but right now our priority is simply getting her comfortable, pain-free and well again. Despite everything, she is an incredibly sweet little cat and has been nothing but gentle with the team caring for her. Please share in case somebody recognises her or knows where she may have come from. ⚠️ Some of the photos/videos in the post are graphic due to the condition of her injuries. Despite that she is doing remarkably well. The bandage removal and treatment shown were carried out while she was under general anaesthetic. We will be posting updates later in the week.
