Poor little pup Daniel thought he was finally going to get adopted and have a family of his own - but the folks never showed! Can you help this sweet little guy out? Please share to spread the word - or apply to adopt or foster him at @ahomeoftheirown.bsky.social (DMV/DC metro area)!

Six years and two days ago, we awarded the first grant from our Baltimore Street Kitties Medical Fund to cover dental surgery for Cody, Jagger, Lucky and Stanley. These street cats may be forgotten by the public at large, but not by the angels who care for them - nor by us. 1/3

On the Other Site they were tweeting about whether 100 men could beat a gorilla. Better: can 100 folks donate to save street kitties like sweet Twixie? This little warrior was badly injured, including a dislocated, fractured, & infected leg, but just got vital surgery via our Street Kitty Fund… 1/2

For #AdoptAShelterPetDay we’re sending out a plea for sweet Momma Chickie at the Cat Shack - she’s been waiting too long! This little girl was living behind a Checkers and had 2 litters of kittens there despite being only ~1½ years old! 😿 Adopt her: form.jotform.com/223504742412... or please share!

Speaking of Murderbot, Soft Side social media kitty Parker is listening to the new @fictionfanspod.bsky.social episode on Artificial Condition, and was happy to hear about a rescue pup getting adopted - Crumpet is an adorable name! (He’d love to see pics too - the four Fiction Fans pets as well!)
