Celeste Tortoiseshell Kitten from Hemet for Cat Adoption

torti kittens for adoption from Hemet — Celeste is tortoiseshell female kitten for pet adoption

Meet Celeste! The foster has this to say about Celeste:

“Celeste is the last of the Hemet Ferals. She is a domestic short hair Torti female and has an abundance of torti-tude. Celeste was the 2nd most feral of this bunch but she too is coming along very nicely just like the rest of her son links. Like Tucker, she is a little more quick to cower or hide at quick movements or a loud noises but she doesn’t joy being padded, snuggled, picked up, and played with. Give her a little time to get to know you and she will be your best friend. Celeste is curious but also cautious about dogs, and does enjoy meeting other cats.”

The kittens were picked up as ferals in Hemet on May 6th. They are estimated to be 8 weeks old in late May. The siblings are Tucker (pale orange tabby male), Todd (gray male), Celeste (tortoiseshell female), and Kammie (dilute tortoiseshell female.)

We hold regular weekend adoptions at PetSmart on Temecula Parkway. Learn more about our adoption events on our website at http://babybobbysmeowhouserescue.org/adoption.html

Trapped Feral Momma Cat Rescue in Lake Elsinore

Update from Shell on trapping the feral mom:

“Well we were finally able to trap their mama. She will be going in to Ramona clinic tomorrow to be spayed, get vaccinated, and be SNAP tested. I took these pics last night but then was too tired to post the update. I’m happy to see that her injury from the last time she was trapped seems to be healing well and there is no signs

of infection present because that is something I was a little bit worried about.

She has injuries because the people that caught her and her kittens have never trapped before and they did not know that they needed to cover the Trap so she freaked out and ripped her head open and they ended up letting her go because they were afraid that she was going to injure herself further and they weren’t sure if the rescue would take a feral or help a feral so they let her go. They were really sad and apologetic when they found out that we would have taken her and held her and got her spayed. So I explained to them better ways to trap and left traps with them and we were finally able to catch her again and it’s healing a lot better than I expected it to be with her being out in the elements and stuff. So it looks better than I expected it to – it was really bad when it first happened.

But we are definitely going to do everything we can to try to make sure that she has everything she needs to live her best, longest, healthiest life. The neighbor across the street from the house that she had her babies under has been feeding the ferals and will continue to feed her and they are also going to try to trap the two or three unneutered males that have been roaming around the neighborhood that we believe are the Daddy’s of the kittens that I have. We would like to just get the entire Colony vaccinated and altered so they can be fed and happy and fat and keep the rodent population down but not bring the feral kitty cat numbers up.”

Rescued Newborn Kitten found on doorstep

Valarie got a midnight call who found a bloody newborn on their front step with no momma cat in sight. The couple cleaned up the kitten and placed it on a heating pad back on the front porch in the hopes momma cat could come back. She never did. Valarie spoke with the couple again at 3 AM and found out there were multiple strays and ferals on their property. The man had asked for help from Animal Friends of the Valleys shelter to trap, spay, and neuter, but did not get assistance. Shell went and got the newborn kitten later that morning. She was able to introduce the newborn to Mama Torrie and the baby was adopted. We plan to help the couple with trapping, spaying, and neutering the cats to help end the cycle of pet overpopulation.

Cat Rescue of Mama Torrie and her Kittens

Mama Torrie was living with a pack of other stray and feral cats in a condominium complex in Hemet. Her finder moved in almost a year ago and has been feeding this cat because she likes to hang around her place and is up on her roof a lot. We think but do not know for sure that it is possible her owners used to live in that same home and then just left their cat behind when they moved send Torrie seems to prefer that place so much. Shell helped to trap pregnant Torrie.

On Monday, April 2nd, Torrie gave birth in the morning to two beautiful kittens. Because she was so large and she was continuing to breathe rather heavily as though she was still in labor we ended up taking her into the vet yesterday to check and see whether or not she had any more kittens stuck inside her. It turns out that she’s just a little bit chunky and does not have any more kittens stuck inside of her which is good. She is a very good mother, very loving, takes excellent care of both of her babies and they are eating and moving well. The dark, solid colored one looks to be male, and Shell thinks the other will end up with a Torbi or Torti color pattern once older and is a female. Mom is a Torbi though looks more tabby as her orange splashes are light and only around the back legs/bum area.
