Content: This newsletter pulls back the curtain on kitten season and why it overwhelms rescues every year. It explains how quickly unfixed cats multiply, why kittens are so often found sick or alone, and how even well-intended actions can have fatal consequences when people do not ask for help first.
You’ll read clear guidance on what to do and what not to do if you find kittens or a feral mom, along with an urgent call for fosters and volunteers. The issue also highlights practical ways everyone can help, from spay and neuter and TNR support to sharing posts and donating.
At the heart of the newsletter is Leo and Nike’s story, a powerful example of loss, connection, and survival when the right support shows up at the right moment. Their bond reminds us why education, patience, and asking first save lives.
