green street rescue really needs your help!

"Will you be my forever mamma?" Cuddly, playful Mindy was found under a porch in Philly with her mom and siblings. She's being fostered at Green Street Rescue, waiting for a loving home.If you've been following my blog, you know I volunteer for Green Street Rescue here in Philadelphia. Through Green Street, I was able to trap – and then adopt Buttons [RIP] and Pablo. With Green Street's help, I've also trapped and found homes for several other kitties including Laurel and Pumpkin. Thanks to Green Street Rescue and Saved Whiskers, a colony of 12 cats at the Philadelphia Art Museum were all trapped and neutered. Loving homes were found for 9 including these 2 cuties who were able to be socialized. My friend Vanessa and I care for the remaining 3 who had to be released because they were too aggressive to be socialized.

Horace was filthy, starving, afraid and covered with fleas when Green Street Rescue found him. See what a little love can do? He is waiting for his forever home.Horace's tale is a typical Green Street Rescue story. He was filthy, starving, covered with fleas and scabs and had a bald tummy and infected tail when a kind lady found him on the streets of Philadelphia. He also had a UTI. Green Street covered the vet costs and the kind lady nursed him back to health and is fostering him. He turned out to be a real love bug and hasn't left his foster mom's side since his ordeal. But she is not able to keep him and he needs a forever home – someone who will love him and never-ever-ever leave him. Will it be you?

My friends at Green Street have rescued cats and kittens from horrifying situations in the city. Some cats were starving. Others were abused. Others were "dumped" like trash when their owners moved or decided they didn't want them any more. Green Street rescue is currently overrun and they really need your help. They need people to foster and adopt cats and kittens. They need donations of money – or supplies [like cat food, blankets, towels, toys, etc]

Read more about Horace, Mindy and all the other adorable adoptable kitties at Green Street Rescue. If you'd like to foster or adopt a kitty [or two or three!], contact Green Street or me. I'm happy to help facilitate! Feel free to email me with the subject line "Green Street Rescue" if you have any questions or would like to help, adopt, foster or volunteer.
