16 Teeth Gone, But Mel-Mel Can Finally Smile Without Pain

Boiling Springs, SC • South Carolina Community Cat Project

At 12 years old, Mel-Mel should be spending his golden years feeling safe, comfortable, and loved. Instead, when he was transferred to South Carolina Community Cat Project from Spartanburg County Pet Resource Center, he arrived with severe dental disease that was causing pain and putting his health at risk. For cats, serious dental disease isn't just a cosmetic problem. Painful, infected teeth can make eating difficult and can significantly affect their overall well-being. Mel-Mel needed extensive veterinary care to give him the relief he deserved. On August 20, 2026, Mel-Mel underwent anesthesia and a thorough dental procedure, including scaling and polishing and a staggering 16 dental extractions. His treatment also included pre-anesthetic bloodwork, antibiotics, and multiple forms of pain control to keep him comfortable throughout his recovery. The total cost of Mel-Mel's necessary dental care was $489.30—and South Carolina Community Cat Project has already paid the bill. Now they're asking the Waggle community to help replenish the funds they spent on Mel-Mel so they can continue saying yes to other cats who desperately need veterinary care. After living with painful dental disease, Mel-Mel finally has a chance to eat, heal, and enjoy his life without the constant pain he had been carrying. A donation of any size will help South Carolina Community Cat Project recover the cost of his treatment and put those funds back toward helping the next vulnerable cat who needs them. Please help us give Mel-Mel's rescue the resources to keep saving cats. ❤️🐱 Your donation can help turn 16 painful teeth into a much more comfortable future for this sweet senior boy.

Pickles Was Rescued With a Broken Jaw and Two Tiny Babies

Metairie, LA • A Tail in Need Animal Rescue

Pickles is a mama cat who was given a second chance at the exact moment she needed one most. This sweet girl was recently found at a local shelter alongside her two newborn kittens, Parker and Posey. While caring for her tiny babies, Pickles was also carrying a painful injury—a broken jaw that appears to have occurred sometime before she was rescued. The exact cause of her injury is unknown, but what is certain is that Pickles needed help. When A Tail In Need Animal Rescue learned about Pickles and her kittens, they immediately stepped in and tagged them for rescue placement, ensuring this little family would not be overlooked. Now safely in rescue care, Pickles is beginning the next chapter of her journey. Veterinary teams are reviewing her condition to determine whether her jaw can be repaired and what treatment will give her the best chance at healing. Despite everything she has endured, Pickles has continued to care for her kittens and show the strength and love of a devoted mother. Parker and Posey are counting on her, and A Tail In Need Animal Rescue is committed to giving this family the care and support they need. Donations will help cover Pickles’ veterinary evaluation, diagnostic testing, treatment for her jaw injury, and any medical care needed to help her recover while continuing to care for her kittens. Pickles was saved just in time. With your support, she can finally receive the care she deserves and give her babies the safe, healthy start they were meant to have. Please help A Tail In Need Animal Rescue give Pickles and her kittens the second chance they deserve.

Francis

A Tiny CH Baby Alone With No One to Protect Him — Starving & Struggling Just to Stay Alive

West Palm Beach, FL • Wild Whiskers, Inc.

When CH Baby Francis appeared at a food truck, there was no mama cat beside him. No one was protecting him or making sure he had enough to eat. And because Francis has cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), he was already facing challenges that would have made life on the streets even more dangerous. CH affects coordination and balance, leaving Francis wobbly and unsteady on his feet. For a tiny kitten navigating cars, predators, and the countless dangers of life outdoors, surviving on his own was almost unimaginable.Thankfully, someone noticed Francis and reached out for help. When he entered rescue Wild Whiskers Inc., his CH was obvious—but his caregivers quickly realized something else was wrong. Francis appeared increasingly neurological and began declining. Eventually, he stopped getting out of bed. Bloodwork revealed just how serious things had become: his sodium was off the charts. His rescue team knew they couldn't give up on this tiny baby. With help from his veterinary team, Francis began an intensive treatment plan that includes twice-daily subcutaneous fluids and oral medications at home. His bloodwork has started improving—and even more encouragingly, Francis started playing again. For the first time, this little fighter began acting like the kitten he was always meant to be. Francis also receives weekly ozone treatments as part of his ongoing supportive care, and his rescue has already spent significantly on diagnostics, bloodwork, treatments, and other veterinary expenses. But Francis's medical journey isn't over. He will remain in a long-term medical foster home until his veterinarians determine that he is healthy and stable enough to be considered for adoption. Until then, his rescue must continue covering his ongoing medical care. Francis may be wobbly. He may need extra help. But he is happy, he is playing, and he is living a life worth fighting for. His rescue said yes to Francis when he had nowhere else to go. Now, they need help keeping that promise. 💙 Please donate today to help cover Francis's ongoing veterinary care. Every contribution helps provide the fluids, medications, diagnostics, monitoring, and supportive care this special little kitten needs. And if you can't donate, please share Francis's story. One share could put his fundraiser in front of someone who can help. Francis didn't get the easiest start in life. But he finally has people fighting for him—and with your help, we can make sure this brave little kitten gets every chance to keep growing, playing, and enjoying the life he fought so hard to find.

Senior Companions Cleo and Tivali Need Our Help

Hawthorne, NJ • A Pathway to Hope

When Cleo and Tivali were first found, we were told they were friendly four-month-old kittens. One, a tiny gray kitten with a cloudy eye and injuries to her face, urgently needed medical care, so A Patheay to Hope stepped in. We agreed to help, but when Cleo was trapped, we discovered she wasn't a kitten at all. Cleo is a tiny senior little lady, who has likely been struggling to survive on the streets for years. Cleo had suffered severe facial trauma, leaving her with almost no teeth, a swollen face, a permanently damaged eye that may still require removal, and multiple medical conditions requiring ongoing treatment and follow-up care. She is sweet and docile despite her pain. Meanwhile, Cleo’s companion, Tivali, proved much harder to rescue. We refused to give up, and he is finally safe as well, but in need of significant medical care before we can even consider adoption. What we expected to be a straightforward kitten rescue quickly became far more complicated (and far more expensive) than anyone imagined. But this is the reality of rescue. Animals don't always arrive as expected. They don't fit neatly into budgets or plans. They simply need help and we are here to step in. If you're able, please consider making a donation today to help cover Cleo's ongoing medical treatment and Tivali's veterinary care. Every gift helps us give animals like Cleo and Tivali the second chance they deserve. Thank you for helping us give Cleo and Tivali HOPE for better days ahead.

A Devastating Setback for Femme Felines Rescue. We Need Your Help

San Diego, CA • Femme Felines

We never imagined we would have to share news like this. Recently, the storage unit that housed much of Femme Felines Rescue’s food, supplies, and essential resources was broken into. The lock was destroyed, and nearly everything inside was stolen. Years of carefully collected donations, supplies for foster homes, and necessities for the cats in our care vanished in a single night. The loss is heartbreaking. While we cannot understand why this happened, we sincerely hope that wherever these supplies ended up, they will somehow help animals in need. Today, our inventory is critically low. We have only a limited amount of supplies remaining in San Diego, and our Moreno Valley storage unit is nearly empty. Yet the cats still need food, litter, medical care, and the everyday essentials that keep them healthy and safe. Rescue does not stop because of a setback, and neither will we. In response to recommendations from our community, we have created a Wishlist containing the items that would make the greatest impact right now. Every donated item helps us replace what was lost and allows us to continue supporting foster families and caring for vulnerable cats. We understand that times are difficult, and we ask for support only if you are in a position to give. Whether you donate supplies, contribute financially, or simply share our story, you are helping ensure that this theft does not interrupt lifesaving work. Thank you for standing with Femme Felines Rescue. We remain committed to advocating for the cats who cannot advocate for themselves, and with your support, we will continue moving forward—one rescued life at a time.

After Losing His Best Friend, Slate Needs Answers

Sciota, PA • Healing Paws of Love Sanctuary by Gracie & Leo

For years, Steel and Slate survived unimaginable hardship together. These two sweet cats were rescued from a severe hoarding situation involving more than 60 cats, where they endured years without proper veterinary care, adequate nutrition, or the individual attention every animal deserves. Despite everything they had been through, they remained gentle, resilient, and deeply bonded. When Healing Paws of Love Sanctuary welcomed them into rescue, we hoped their difficult days were finally behind them. Sadly, that was not the case. After concerns about excessive thirst and changes in his appetite, Steel underwent extensive veterinary testing. The results revealed widespread stomach cancer. Despite receiving compassionate care and being surrounded by love in a wonderful foster home, Steel recently passed away. We are heartbroken by his loss. Now our focus turns to Slate. Slate is estimated to be around five years old and is FIV-positive. Recently, he has begun showing concerning symptoms that mirror some of the warning signs Steel experienced. He is drinking excessive amounts of water and losing weight despite maintaining a healthy appetite. Given their shared history of severe neglect and Steel's recent cancer diagnosis, our veterinary team is deeply concerned that Slate may be facing an underlying medical condition of his own. At this time, Slate urgently needs diagnostic testing to determine what is causing these symptoms. Bloodwork, imaging, and additional veterinary evaluations will help us identify whether he is battling cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, hyperthyroidism, or another serious illness. The sooner we have answers, the sooner we can begin the treatment he needs. After surviving years of neglect and losing the companion who shared that journey with him, Slate deserves every opportunity for a healthy future. We refuse to let his symptoms go unanswered. Your donation will help cover the cost of diagnostic testing, veterinary examinations, medications, and any necessary treatment plans that result from his diagnosis. Please help Healing Paws of Love Sanctuary give Slate the chance Steel never had—a future filled with comfort, medical care, and hope. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to finding answers for Slate.
