Nanu Needs Help

Anyone who is familiar with Empty Cages Collective knows the the founder of this organization, P.J., is very dedicated to protecting the welfare of all our city’s critters. Given today is his birthday I feel compelled to pass along the story of Nanu. Per Empty Cage Collective’s ChipIn page dedicated to her:

Nanu was recently rescued from a neglect situation by Empty Cages Collective. She was dropped (literally) by her previous guardians resulting in two terribly damaged knees and legs. After being denied care for this issue, Nanu developed a life threatening infection. Empty Cages Collective found out about Nanu’s plight from another rescuer and rushed into action to help her. After receiving emergency surgery for a runaway pyometra infection, Nanu went to an ECC foster home to recuperate.

She has recovered from her infection very well. She is incredibly sweet and lovable, and very snugly. But she can’t walk… yet. Surgery will provide Nanu with an opportunity to walk and even run and jump again…

You can read more about Nanu and tender a donation towards her medical expenses by clicking here. Happy birthday P.J.!

Three Greenpoint Cats Need Your Help!

Max, approx 10 years old, neutered male, FIV positive.

Daisy, approx 10 years old, spayed female.

Bethany, approx 7 years old, spayed female.

A number of folks have brought the plight of this threesome to my attention. Long story made (very) short, these cats recently had the misfortune of finding themselves at Animal Care and Control, a kill shelter, because their person (a Dupont Street resident) died. You can read more about their story on the Facebook page my friend Lisa was thoughtful enough to create. Anyone interested in providing a home for Max, Daisy and Bethany should contact Neighborhood Cats via email at lois (at) nycferalcat (dot) com.

Thanks— please help spread the word!
