Animals suffer when we are not responsible.
Stop abandoning your pets!
Rowan would be alive if her humans didn't fail her!

It's been a bad day!

If anyone wonders if they should neuter their cat or not, I hope the following will steer you in the responsible direction.

Rowan came into our care last Friday. She was heavily pregnant, she'd had a litter in May and was about to produce another. She'd had at least two litters of kittens a year for the last 5 years.

She was living outdoors, but had clearly been a pet cat. She was desperate to get into a house. So we took her, despite having no pens to put her in. The Glasgow adoption centre had offered a pen, if we could get her up there.

However, the vets felt she was too near giving birth and was already exhausted with over breeding.

So she came into my spare bedroom, quickly altered and registered as an emergency foster room. I already have two pens in my garden with a family of cats in one and a poorly cat in another.

We waited, but no sign of kittens. Rowan was infested with worms, vomiting them up and having dreadful diarrhoea as well.
We watched and waited as we hoped for a labour to start. Nothing. Vets attended throughout the week and advised...nothing.

This cat was too exhausted to make contractions and lay listless.

Last night labour started, but no contractions. This morning it was clear Rowan was in trouble and an emergency dash to the vets was had.
She stayed with them, worn out and past it. They did everything they could to support her labour...but still no energy to make contractions. It was decided our only option was an emergency caesarean.

This afternoon, two vets attended Rowan and did their best for her. Sadly she didn't make it and went into cardiac arrest just as they were sewing her up. Her body was exhausted, worn out, starved due to feeding and making kittens. She was all kitten, with a bloated belly, but all else was skin and bone...literally.

We lost this dear little cat today on the operating table, but before she left us, she gave life to 6 kittens. She starved herself of life to give them life.

They will never know the warmth and safety of their mothers belly, her teats full of milk, her smell to comfort them and her skill sets to teach them.

This little cat gave her life, because she's hard wired to breed, breed, breed. Her body was literally worn out, drained of any fat, muscle or nutrients. Her pelvis and uterus were also worn out. When this happens, cats can't contract and complete their birthing process ....it's a pretty crap way to die.

So if you think it's okay to leave your UN neutered female out and about from 4 months of age...it's not! If you think it's ok to leave your 4 month old male out and about with his trouble truffles in place...it's not.

I've spent the last week watching a cat slowly die, because her owner didn't think she should get neutered. She was 5 years old.

Female cats can get pregnant from 4 months of age, really not good for them! They can get pregnant one week after giving birth to kittens. Having two litters of kittens a year will drastically shorten a female cats life.

So spare a thought for your cat if it's not neutered.

This branch offers a generous neutering scheme in the DG8 and DG9 area (Scotland). If you are out with this area, please contact your local branch to enquire about their neutering scheme. For £10 a cat you can get it neutered.
Simply email [email protected]

If you still think it's not kind to neuter your cat.....spare a thought for Rowan tonight, who died of breeding exhaustion and leaves 6 orphaned kittens behind.

Personally, I'm sick of hearing about accidental litters of kittens arriving. It's not rocket science, if you let your female cat outdoors and she's not neutered, she's going to get pregnant!! Get this, if you have a male and female cat as
pets and they're not neutered....they're going to breed.

RIP Rowan...you deserved so much better😿

About 7.6 million unwanted pets enter U.S. animal shelters every year, and about 2.7 million of them are euthanized—roughly 31 percent of dogs and 41 percent of cats, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (www.aspca.org).

If you choose to rescue animals, I am going to give you some sound advice - Grow thick skin and don't care what people think of you. I have known people to lose the battle with their minds and we just lost a kind, caring individual in my rescue network. Compassion fatigue is real, but nothing is worth your life. No pet. No rescue. No person's opinion. Nothing.

In rescue, that person that tells you what an angel you are and how wonderful you are every time you pick up a stray pet thrown at their door will also be the first person who tells people how your organization is worthless when you don't have space to pick up the 30th pet thrown off on their property. It's ok.

In rescue, the adopter that leaves you the five star review about how wonderful everyone has been will change that review quick when they return the pet even though you have spent hours trying to keep it in their home. One star reviews are ok.

In rescue, your friend will be your friend until you deny their application for a pet because they are a great friend but a terrible pet owner. That's ok too.

In rescue, you will answer 143 calls in a day (yesterday to be exact). But if you miss 6 calls in a row while you are in the shower, you will be the one who "never answers their phone". It's ok.

In rescue, other rescuers and random trolls will judge everything you do but never have time to pitch in a hand to help when they see something needing more attention. They will, however, have lots of time to talk about how they’d do it better while they harass and judge you. It will be ok.

In rescue, you will have to involve animal control and the police department sometimes. The people who you take pets from will hate you - and I mean REALLY hate you. Trust me, it's ok.

In rescue, pets will be put down and pets will die at the hands of abusers. We can't save them all - and that's ok. We save the ones that we can and pray for peace for the ones we can't.

I have been in the animal rescue world since 2009. I have dealt with every problem and every situation imaginable. I used to take some things to heart, then I realized - I am doing this for the animals, not for any person in this world. I have found my joy and no person will take that. If you are in rescue, don't let anyone or anything take your joy. Find peace that you will never please everyone. Find peace that you will never save them all. Never allow something you love to turn into something that ends your life.

Beautiful poem from Sunshine Rescue and Rehome

TO MY RESCUE Pet

There's no need to flinch when I lift my hand
No need to cower each time I stand
No need to run when I come near
No need to tremble - I see your fear.

You can sleep with both eyes shut,
Don't need to jump when you wake up.
Your food is yours to eat in peace
No need to fight to keep your feast

You don't need to lie upon a hard floor
The beds and sofas are yours to explore
Don't need to sit out in the rain
The house is your shelter, your new domain.

I cannot erase the memories and fears
can't compensate for the wasted years
All I have is what you see
But I give you it all and i give you me.

I give you these arms to comfort and hold
I give you this voice for the joys you'll be told
I give you my heart and abundance of love
I give you my soul and I hope its enough.
Credit respective owner.

The Day the Greatest Generation stood against evil.
Hear from some Veterans about their time in Normandy on that day and a speech from Ronald Regan.

Hear about the brave men and women of D-Day

06/06/2024

Today, the greatest generation arrived in Normandy. They knew some would not make it. But their love of Country and their fellow Americans moved them forward into hell on earth. I don't know how men and women walk into battle knowing they could die and pushing aside their fear to fight an enemy.
God Bless everyone who fought these enemies, who left friends and part of themselves on that battlefield. Thank you isn't enough. You deserve so much more.
We stand with you heroes.
