🦋❄️Lady Random❄️🦋Snow Leopard Vtuber❄️Not Lewd❄️

Need help getting these kittens and getting them the care they need. Health status is not known without a vet check, but they are clearly not in the right hands. @gandolf_s can rescue and get them to the vet. The cash match is open until Nov 19th. If you are able, any help is good help. They deserve a better chance at life.💔

A BIRTHDAY RESCUE... A TINY LIFE HANGING IN THE BALANCE... AND THE NEVER-ENDING NEED TO SAVE SO MANY ❤️🐾 A RESCUE UPDATE. On Oct 28th...On her birthday, Priya received a call. A dog had been seen carrying a tiny kitten in his mouth. Could she please come? Of course she went. By the time she arrived, the dog had dropped the kitten, but the little one was lying there, crying in pain. She rushed him straight to the vet, where he remains hospitalized. She has named him Little Sooty. 💓 At just six weeks old, Little Sooty is fighting a huge battle. Thankfully, no broken bones or internal injuries have been detected from his terrifying attack by the dog. But the vet discovered something else...THREE separate issues. Coccidia, a parasite which can cause severe diarrhea and dangerous dehydration. And in tiny Sooty, has done so. Roundworms, which can interfere with his ability to absorb the nourishment his growing body desperately needs. And Capillaria, bladder worms that can cause very painful inflammation of the urinary tract. Three different invaders attacking a tiny, fragile body that has barely begun its life. Little Sooty remains hospitalized, receiving fluid support, medications, and close monitoring. His prognosis is guarded, and treatment is expected to take approximately two weeks. We don't yet know whether this precious little boy will survive. But we do know that he is receiving every chance we can possibly give him.🙏❤️ 🐾 THE TWO FLUFFY RACE TRAC GAS STATION BABIES On Oct 25th… Two fluffy cats, rescued. Living at the gas station. Someone asked Priya to come for a cat they said they would adopt. They said they “just needed someone with a trap to help them”. When she arrived, there were TWO cats...and after 3 hours, sick with the flu, trapping them, the promised home suddenly disappeared. They changed their minds. Didn’t want 2, and noted they weren’t “tame” like they thought they’d be. Now in traps, they became Priyas' responsibility. These two are still very frightened and feral. Hissing, spitting, and terrified of human contact. They are going to take a lot of work to socialize. But vetting first. They went into the vet today for their big day. Two exams, testing, parasite treatments, flea treatments, microchips, spays or neuters...and the costs of their veterinary stay. Another big vet bill. A home so close…but vanished when the challenge looked too hard. But he DID offer to buy her a beverage😾 🐾 THE FIVE LITTLE STORM BABIES Oct 10th...(4 tuxies and a tabby) saved during the pouring rain and wind bands of Hurricane Isiais that came through Atlanta. A few days after intake, stopped eating. A stay at the vet and all testing done, revealed nothing more than that they were just emotionally overwhelmed. An expensive way of determining that the good food and warm beds were too much of a change from sleeping in rain soaked bushes and eating out of dumpsters with the rats as friends. They were simply overwhelmed and scared. It happens. The “wild” gets embedded by 7-8 weeks old, and they simply deal with capture by shutting down. But we had to take them in to the vet. So much can go very wrong, very quickly, when it comes to young kittens and disease. We’re happy they are fine, and loosening up. Learning what toys are and allowing some touching. Most beautiful little mauraders, eating like velociraptors. All five are now due for their spay and neuter surgeries so they can finally be ready for adoption. Five more little lives. Five more veterinary bills. ADOPTION applications are being accepted.🏡 (Email in linktree on my page for inquiry/application) The rescue has FIFTEEN precious cats waiting for forever homes. Fifteen little souls whose greatest need is something money cannot buy...a family of their own.😢 It’s been an extremely hard kitten season. Shelters are overwhelmed and euthanizing with wild abandon. Seems this year is worse than last, if that's even possible. It’s soul crushing. We’ve had very few inquiries for our kittens. When our cats don’t get adopted, of course, they don’t get euthanized. They are safe with us. However, what does happen, is they linger here. They linger on and on, until they become absorbed as part of the sanctuary cats, who just stayed and became family. We treasure each one! But…they take up space and financial support that prevents more streeters from being saved. Essentially, others are out there waiting, some not surviving, because there isn’t room. This is not our ideal intention or mission of the rescue. 😪 Our mission is from street to forever home, with us just being the conduit between. So many need help, and closing the doors due to space, and turning off the phone because we cannot help is a massive heartbreak, and a betrayal to the streeters waiting, that we can barely comprehend. Many will simply not survive if we turn our back. With another cold, wet winter approaching, street life is miserable and life threatening for them. And it’s not fair to the ones here, really, who deserve to be in a home and family of their own. All of our babies are bonded, and need to go home in pairs. It’s harder to place them this way, but we have found homes for many pairs, so we know there are families out there willing to love and understand the importance of their bond, and able to take in two. Obviously, able is the key. We transport them. Recently, Boston and Tennessee have opened their doors to new sweet love. We’ve only placed 5 so far…in months! Two pairs, Bodie & Bluey, Murphy & Pearl, and momma Mindy who preferred to be an only love. This is a small window of what the rescue has been doing in the past few weeks. There are no days off. No birthdays when the suffering politely waits until tomorrow. No pause in the emergencies. The calls keep coming. Priya keeps answering. She has been the difference between life and death for thousands of animals who had no one else to turn to. ❤️ OUR BIRTHDAY CASH MATCH REMAINS OPEN THROUGH NOVEMBER 19! ❤️ (pinned to my page) and linktr.ee/gandolfslegacy It’s how we’re honoring @gandolf_s Priya’s Birthday and the efforts she has put into saving the street babies who have no one to help them. 21 years of giving everything to them. It would be a beautiful kindness to return to her, the blessings she has been for these babies...and so so many others. $5 = 10. $10 = 20…matched by the kindness of a rescue friend, up to $2000. *Food is counted in the match as an in-kind donation. A hospital bill paid. A frightened kitten made well. A surgery completed. Some cans of food purchased. A little life given its chance at tomorrow. The peace of knowing, even for a little while, that her load is a bit lighter. A chance to take a deep breath, and let it out.😮‍💨 😽Sending Whisker Love Thank you for standing with us💓Your support has meant everything to the fur babies. If you've given a donation, sent food, shared a post, liked, kindly commented with best wishes, we cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Your love is deeply felt, humbly appreciated and beautifully uplifting.🥹 You've helped saved lives. Heros all 🫂

🚨LAST NIGHT WAS A NIGHTMARE FOR OUR RESCUE. AND I AM ANGRY BEYOND MEASURE! There are days when I wonder how much more one human being can be expected to endure in the name of compassion. Last night was one of those days. Priya posted this morning about the situation with two new cats over at @gandolf_s, and I have a bit more to say. It's a rant, and if rants aren't what you like to read, perhaps skip on by. But I make no apologies for my anger today. There comes a point when watching someone you care about being repeatedly taken advantage of, watching their kindness exploited and their sacrifices treated as though they mean nothing, becomes more than the heart can quietly bear. (I'm speaking of the community that contacts her for help) Priya is sick. Again. (Flu, Covid, URI, not sure) She is in pain, exhausted, and should have been home in bed. She has appt to see her doctor tomorrow. But when someone reached out to her, apparently through Nextdoor website, pleading for help trapping a cat at a gas station that they said they wanted to ADOPT, she did what she has done for so many years. She put the needs of a helpless animal ahead of her own...and went. It isn't often that she is asked to just trap and THEY will take the baby home! This is such great news for the babies and the rescue! The arrangement was simple. This person wanted the cat, had somewhere for it to go, and needed Priya's help catching it. Except there wasn't one cat. There were TWO. Young siblings, surviving around a gas station, emerging from the darkness to search for scraps of food. For three hours, in the cold, while feeling absolutely miserable, Priya worked to get them safely into a trap. And she succeeded. That's when the arrangement suddenly changed. This person no longer wanted the cats. Not one. Not two. They weren't taking them home. They were leaving Priya standing there with two frightened animals in a trap and absolutely NOWHERE to put them. And as a gesture of appreciation for her three hours of suffering and effort, this person offered to buy her a beverage from inside the gas station. A BEVERAGE. I cannot begin to tell you how disgusted I am. Did it occur to this person, even for a moment, what they had just done? That a rescue might already be overflowing? That every available inch of space might be occupied? That there might be no money for another veterinary bill, another mouth to feed, another emergency? Apparently not. I'd like to give this person the benefit of the doubt, perhaps forgive their ignorance of how rescue works and what rescuers confront every day. That there isn't magical open space, and infinitely growing money tree in the yard. But I can't right now. I'm all out of "that's okay." IT. IS. NOT. OKAY! And now Priya has TWO MORE cats she has absolutely no room for! With the recent arrival of five precious tuxedo kittens, we were already stretched beyond our limits. We have young ones needing spay and neuter surgeries, seven seniors needing medical attention, and a mountain of expenses we are struggling to meet. In desperation, Priya had to call a friend in the middle of the night and beg him to take these two babies temporarily. He agreed to help, bless his heart, but he lives in an apartment where animals are not permitted. That is not a solution. It is a temporary act of kindness that cannot last. Make no mistake. They are now her rescues and must bring them in ASAP as he cannot continue to house them. And so here we are. Two more innocent lives depending on a rescue that has nowhere to put them! A rescuer who is physically ill, emotionally exhausted, and being asked to find a solution to a crisis she did not create. And the person responsible? Gone. I sometimes think one of the cruelest parts of animal rescue isn't what happens to the animals. It's what people do to the human beings trying desperately to save them. The dishonesty. The broken promises. The casual disregard for someone else's time, health, finances, and humanity. People create these terrible situations, then walk away, leaving compassionate rescuers to clean up the mess. And because the lives involved are innocent, the rescuers cannot simply walk away themselves. Compassion becomes the very thing that others take advantage of! And that hurts my heart and makes me more angry than I can express. Wednesday is Priya's birthday. I had hoped that our birthday cash match fundraiser, pinned to my page, would be a beautiful way to honor her years of service to the animals of Atlanta. A chance to give something back to a woman who has given so much of herself. I understand that times are difficult. We are all feeling the rising costs of simply getting through everyday life. But I had hoped we might come together to give Priya one lovely birthday surprise, a little financial breathing room and a reminder of how much her life's work means to others. To everyone who has supported us, whether through a donation, a share, a kind word, or simply by cheering us on, thank you from the bottom of my heart. But please understand that we would never want anyone to put our needs before their own. Your well being and that of your loved ones must always come first. Whatever kindness you are able to offer, in whatever form it takes, helps us carry on. I don't know how to make people understand what this woman endures. What rescuers endure. I have watched Priya sacrifice her own comfort, her financial security, her health, and so much of the life most of us take for granted, simply because she cannot bear to leave an animal suffering. Friends, we desperately need your help. We need ADOPTIONS. We need loving homes for the beautiful babies already in our care so that we can make room for these two new gas station wayfarers. We need help getting our five little tuxedo newcomers spayed and neutered so they, too, can begin their journeys toward forever homes. Please don't let geography discourage you from considering adoption. We arrange transport to wonderful homes outside Atlanta. In just the past two weeks, one of our rescued cats went to a forever home in Boston, and two others went to Tennessee. A loving home does not have to be around the corner. It just has to be the right home. If you cannot adopt, please share our posts. If you can spare a few dollars, please consider contributing to Priya's birthday cash match, pinned to my page. I have a linktree in my bio. And if you know someone who has room in their home and heart for a rescued cat or two, please tell them about us. I wanted Wednesday to be a celebration of this remarkable woman's life. Not another day of worrying about how she will manage to keep saving everyone. And one last thing, to the person responsible for last night's fiasco... To the absolute jackass who sat there watching a sick woman spend THREE HOURS in the cold trying to save two frightened little lives, only to wait until 3 AM, when they were finally safely trapped, to take pictures, announce you'd changed your mind for no apparent reason, and offer to buy her a damn Coke... I hope someday you come to understand just how breathtakingly selfish, thoughtless, and downright slimy your behavior was. You took advantage of a woman's compassion, left her with a crisis she had neither the space nor the resources to handle, and walked away as though you'd done her a favor. I hope life teaches you something about kindness, responsibility, and the consequences of treating decent human beings so disgracefully. Because karma, as they say, has a remarkable memory. Thank you for absolutely nothing, you rat bastard ! And now, back to the two innocent little lives who never asked to be caught in the middle of any of this. 💫If, by some miracle of fate, there is someone out there willing to foster these beautiful fuzzy wayfarers, it would be help sent by angels right now. We have no idea right now how "feral" they are. They need time and a slow approach to decompress. The expenses would be covered by the rescue. Vet, food. You add the time and love. If this is you, please reach out to me or Priya🙏 Please, friends. Let's give these two little wayfarers a future, and give Priya a reason to believe that the kindness she so freely gives to others will find its way back to her. ❤️ The Birthday Cash Match is a wonderful way to help. 🙏 xitter.gq/PicklesMil/status/2111…
