Rare photo of the elusive Bubito, a specimen of the genus Disobedientus Camouflagious Felidae, rumored to have taken residence in our sanctuary. Infrequent sightings have been reported. Current whereabouts (in the sanctuary): Unknown. *Bubito was rescued by Girl Scouts. He is healthy and stealthy. 😉

Hostage situation - my phone is being held for "catsiderable ransom". Lorenzo is a skillful negotiator. What should I offer??

This baby shows every sign that he was abandoned. Mild-mannered, great on leash. LOVES to be around children, dogs and cats. Goes outside to do his "business". Perfect inside dog. Meet BRUNO, most recent rescue. Hopefully we'll find him a home. But will always wonder how can these pups be abandoned.

Trust. There is nothing quite as compelling as being the object of their trust. Nothing quite like knowing that they feel so safe that they want to be near. Oh that I may always be so deserving...that I may never stop being a safe harbor for them.

Timbi spends much time with noticeable disorientation. Mostly seems as though he's looking for something. Often walks in circles. And, sometimes, he tucks his tail between his legs when the disorientation gets a bit much. I pick him up so we can cuddle. That calms him and he dozes off. My baby...❤️

Although sad, I'm thankful for the honor of having met the irreplaceable Jane Goodall. I pray & trust that we will have the courage and persistence to carry on her legacy of conservation and respect for this planet, our only home. Thank you Jane for such a magnificent example. Rest in light & peace.

This is "Irmo", one of the long-standing members of the Carport Gang - the neighborhood cats who hang out in our carport. (They are fully vetted.) Irmo is super affectionate. Here, he was giving our enclosed front yard a try. Looks like he liked it, don't you think?

Timbi & Kaila are the oldest in the sanctuary. Timbi (14) walks in circles, needs help to drink water, gets "stuck" in corners and seems "out of it" often. But he loves to eat & cuddling is his favorite thing ever! Kaila (16) has mobility difficulties (being treated) but has never been sassier! 🐶🥰❤️

We had a little vet stint yesterday with Lorenzo. He was NOT happy....But, today he seems a lot better so it had to be done. He's almost back to his full boisterous self.

Timbi had a couple of rough days this week. As you know, Lorenzo (the kitty) takes care of him and generally keeps him company. BUT, this weekend it was Kaila who would simply NOT LEAVE his side. She stayed near him (and even cuddled w/him) the whole time. They've known each other for 12 years.

Stay with whomever looks at you the way Maldo looks at Marley. He is so besottedly in love with her ever since he first saw her! 😍 (She, on the other hand, could do with less of his attentions 😌).
Maldo was rescued from a dumpster 4 yrs ago as a little sickly baby. He has come a long way. 😻

Kaila and Timbi in their "synchronized sleeping" mode. 🤭
(Kaila was rescued 15 years ago from abuse by children; Timbi was rescued 12 years ago from a busy intersection. They have been wonderful residents of our sanctuary.)

Today is an exciting day for our sanctuary! Construction starts for the extension of the catio!! More cats will be able to enjoy wider, more comfortable spaces (we are NOT a fan of cages except for transport or extenuating circumstances). Hopefully, the extension will be done by tomorrow. 😃😻🤞💪

We are experiencing record-breaking temperatures. Even the cats are "spread eagling" on the cool tiles...
(This is "Bubito". Found by a Girl Scouts troop and rescued by us. He's our resident teen jock who walks tall, looks at others a bit over his shoulder, but deep inside is very affectionate 😻.)

(Lorenzo was born in our sanctuary as a result of the rescue of his momma during TNR. We waited for her to have the babies and Lorenzo and momma are still with us).
