Kitten season officially began for us earlier this week with our intake of a mama and her two week old kittens. Mama Mimosa is an amazing mother to her babies but isn’t too sure about me yet. Her 5 babies, Pancake, Omelette, Coffee, Cinnamon Bun, and Eggs Benedict are fat and healthy.

Spot has an extra special place in my heart and it makes me so so happy to see her thriving.

Please welcome these 5 little two-week old cuties and their very petite a shy mama. They’ll be taking up residence with the excellent @fluffandwobbles.bsky.social while they grow. They were born on St. Patrick’s day in a lady’s basement, who saw mama was about to have them & gave her shelter.

2 1/2 years fostering close to 50 kitties and it’s finally happened. My first foster fail. Ophelia (now Kira) has her forever home with me. ❤️

We really, really need more foster homes. Whether you want to do cute kittens or socialize shy tweens or just have one nice adult cat at a time, we can work with you and the space you have. If you live near Elkton, MD/Newark, DE and want to help, we cover all supplies and vet care. DM us for info!

Somebody please adopt this giant himbo of a tripping hazard. He just wants love. (Located in northern MD)

Yall don’t even know how CUTE our Shakespearean Ladies sisters are— and they could become the perfect little members of your family! Located in Elkton, MD. Check them out at Petfinder: www.petfinder.com/member/us/md...

Hue is feeling so much better after a week of antibiotics and ear drops. Head tilt has mostly resolved and the wobbles (and goop) are all gone. He’s been the easiest cat I’ve ever had to medicate! Whoever adopts him is going to get the sweetest lovebug boy.

Just a Baby.

Another intake tonight from Final Fantasy colony. This total sweetheart of an orange is probably either Mama Spot’s brother or possibly a son (but probably brother). He has an icky upper respiratory infection, a wobble and a head tilt, so he’ll be going to the vet tomorrow.

In a sea of 2025 impact wrap-ups, here is ours. It’s little, and a few cases left me a bit broken, but it’s still good. Last year we took 80 cats into our care (not including cats we TNR’d). Almost all of them were adopted (still waiting for the Auto Club cats). Rescues, surrenders, low-income help—

I feel like a these cats have been completely written off. They are shy with new people & scared in new places, like any cat would be that’s lived in one house for 6 months. We tried to send them to a bigger rescue to find them homes and they were rejected for being too fearful.

The new Shakespearean girls are de-spicing nicely. We’ve already got purrs from Juliet and Beatrice. Ophelia isn’t quite purring, but she is relaxing sweetly into scritches.

This exceptionally handsome boy has been sad and missing his family (owner surrender). But this morning I finally got to hear his purr. 😻

What I would love more than anything for the holidays is for our two most shy mama cats to find their forever homes. Porsche, mom of the Auto Club kittens, since May this year. Shoyu, who is the mama of last year’s wonderful little grass Miso & Dashi, has been in our rescue since October *2024.*

Please enjoy 2 minutes and 19 seconds of Kittens Playing with a Paper Bag.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets. no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

Data and Lal went to their forever home together today and I am deep in my feels. Love those babies so much.

So many cute babies in my house right now while @crits4cats.bsky.social deals with two very sick panleuk kittens.

Let this be your sign to buy a cheap leash and just keep it in your car. This sweet girl ran up the on ramp onto a major highway. She wasn’t letting anyone get near her but thanks to a bunch of kind people who stopped, we were able to corral her and get my leash looped around her neck (no collar.)

This sweet girl is Shoyu. Shoyu came to us a full YEAR ago, found outside with her two kittens. She’d clearly never been around people before and was completely terrified, but not aggressive. The area she was found in was unsafe to return to for TNR so we decided to give socialization a try. 🧵

Little Pye is my houseguest for the weekend.

Nothing to see here. Just innocently chillin’ on top of the bed.

Small kittens are cute but we still have so many older kittens and adult cats who need their perfect people, too.

Best boy Charlos is going to his forever home today!!

Just got Charlos set up at the local Petsmart to get more eyes on him and find him his forever home. Guys, he is So Good. Cuddly, chill personality, full of purrs, so handsome, good with kids and other cats (and likely dogs too!) Someone give this boy the home he deserves!! (based in Elkton, MD)

Soong family portraits.

IMPORTANT PSA: If you find kittens all alone, keep tbis helpful flowchart in mind. And also: —neonatal kitten need to be on a heat source & kept warm at all times, they cannot regulate their body temperature and you can kill them by feeding a cold kitten. —NEVER feed a bottle baby kitten COW’S MILK!

Spot is really just the most patient mama. Best Cat award. After her hard beginnings and raising Data and Lal she definitely deserves to live the most spoiled housecat life from here on out. 🩷

Apps are open for both Charlos and Data & Lal! Located in Elkton, MD. Apply at crits4cats.petfinder.com

Just an outrageously handsome cat. Stunning. Exquisite.

Unexpected new guest at Chez Fluff n Wobbles! Meet Charlos- an EXTREMELY sweet and handsome 4-5mo old boy who was surrendered to @crits4cats.bsky.social this evening.

The other day, our rescue’s only car died. Because it also doubled as my personal vehicle, I struggled with the decision to ask for donations to replace it. But the fact is we need a car to function. No rescues, vet appointments, adoptions, NOTHING can happen without a car. donorbox.org/crits4cats

Just…take….your…bath…!!!!

How it started vs How it’s going.

Added some more of the Final Fantasy kittens who are ready to find a home as well as the Auto Club kittens. We are so full and cannot take new kittens until we adopt some of these out. Please consider adoption if you’ve been thinking about adding a new cat friend! Elkton, MD crits4cats.petfinder.com

Data wants to remind you that you can do hard things!

If you’ve ever considered fostering, we always need loving homes where kittens can hang out for a bit & become social, friendly good citizens while they get big enough to adopt. One of our Final Fantasy groups is suddenly losing their foster home this week & need a place! Elkton MD/Newark DE, DM us!

How am I supposed to deal with this level of cute??

Happy 1-month birthday to these perfect little nuggets! 🎂

These two are still not eating great on their own and are getting regular tube feeds, but their energy is definitely back!!

Whelp, Lal has officially boarded the calicivirus train with a goopy eye. Good news is she’s still gaining weight, so for now we’ll get some drops for her eye and continue to monitor closely.

Little man has ulcers in his mouth, probably from calicivirus, which explains his eagerness to eat and yet not latching well. So we have a plan for tube feeds and fluids and some medication to help his poor mouth feel better.

At the vet with Data, trying to figure out why our previously chonky boy has started rapidly losing weight.

She is still waiting, not a single app for this incredibly silly, sweet baby girl. Here’s some new pics to share around!

Boop.

Look at this absolute unit. Just a beast of an 11-day-old kitten.

Sweet Violet is still looking for a home. She wants to be an only cat, but she’s all the cat you need! Full of energy and affection and so so silly.

It’s dangerous to go alone, take this.

URGENT, TEMPLE HILLS MD/SE DC—— Recent adoptee Ellie (formerly Molly) got out of her home at IVERSON TOWERS APTS in Temple Hills tonight. Her owners are heartbroken & searching. She was a longtime outdoor cat and extremely shy!! If seen please do not chase, contact us with location! She is chipped.
