Rescue cats from being euthanized at local shelter

What a busy year it has been for New Beginnings Cat Rescue; rescuing both kittens and older cats from being euthanized.   

One little female cat we named Talley, was found as a stray and was very pregnant. Within 4 days of being rescued, she delivered her litter of 8 kittens. She's a great mom and is doing very well adjusting to her new surroundings with her foster family. Soon, mom and babies will be available for adoption.  

Another beautiful cat, 7-year-old Alice was relinquished by her owner because of litter box issues. A medical examination by our veterinarian revealed she had a large bladder stone. After surgery to remove the stone, her litter box issues have disappeared. Alice is ready to find her forever family.  

Sometimes, after leaving an animal shelter with adoptable cats, we find a stow away; a cat that wasn't on the list to be picked up. No questions are asked because we know those are often the kitties with little to no chance of being adopted and desperately need to be rescued. So, when an elderly cat named Roman was surrendered by his owner due to litter box issues, he may have decided NBCR was his chance to be saved. He was so right. His foster mom said he is a very sweet and personable guy. Roman deserves a second chance to live the rest of his life loving and being loved.    

With your financial help, all of the cats we rescue are spayed/neutered and provided with the best medical care. Working together as a team, New Beginnings Cat Rescue and you are helping to put a stop to the suffering of so many cats. Lives are saved. Thank you for your continued financial support!

If cats could talk, these little cat siblings would have quite a story to tell. Only about a year old, four fearful strays were in big trouble. 

When living on the streets, finding food is a daily struggle.  Fortunately, Cheyenne, Cherokee, Apache and Gypsy found a kind person to feed them. One day though, Gypsy didn’t show up with her siblings to eat. Wondering what happened to her and hoping she was okay, the caregiver kept an eye out for her. After  several days, she showed up again to eat and her reason for the temporary disappearance was obvious - she had a bone protruding from her rear leg. At that point the caregiver desperately reached out for help to all the local rescues she could find.  New Beginnings was the only one that responded...but little did we know what we were going to find. 

Gypsy and all her siblings were captured and taken to the vet. Gypsy's siblings had spay/neuter surgery & vaccinations, and then were placed in a foster home. But Gypsy needed much more.  Expecting to amputate her rear leg, the vet x-rayed her to be sure there was no further damage.  To his and our surprise the x-rays revealed that not one, but BOTH rear legs were broken!.  Gypsy would require 2 separate and delicate surgeries.  The first to pin and hopefully save one leg, and the second to amputate the other leg that had no chance of being saved. The catch - the amputation could only be done if the first surgery was successful.  Fortunately it was! 

 It has been only a few months, and amazing everyone, the healing process is going well and she is now feeling safe and can jump, run and climb like a young kitty should! She is putting on weight and she has a lovely shiny coat.  As you can see in the pictures and video, she is able to do everything her four legged siblings can do.  Her foster mom decided she had too much time and love invested in Gypsy and has decided to adopt her for her own.  One of Gypsy's sisters has been adopted and her other two siblings are still on the search for a loving family of their own.   

If cats could talk, these little cat siblings would definitely say thank you for caring and thank you for giving to New Beginnings Cat Rescue so they could be rescued from a life of pain.
