At Riverfront Cats, not only do we lead by example in feeding and managing a cat colony and educate residents about TNRM (Trap-Neuter-Return-Manage), but we have rescued many cats over the years that were born nearby and found their way or were dumped here. Volunteers and residents have also rescued other cats in the Miami area. It's all about teamwork.
We have faced many sad cases in trying to help and rescue lost or injured cat. It's part of the effort. Then there are the stories of rescued cats that reached their "happily-ever-after" ending. Oh we cling to those stories for dear life. To give us the energy to keep going; to uplift us after our hearts shatter in pieces from a cat not making it. Yes rescuers and homeless pet supporters all need a good dose of happy news, happy stories.
A Great Cat Book Read
I am thrilled to share the book Rescued Volume 2: The Healing Stories of 12 Cats, Through Their Eyes. A beautiful anthology that will have you smiling, laughing, and uplifted with each new story. Here is a great review that best sums up the book.Deb Barnes hugs Jazmine, they rescued eachother |
Read and Raise Funds for Riverfront Cats
And now our own volunteer board member and award winning cat author, Deb Barnes, is helping raise funds for Riverfront Cats through this book. Deb contributed to one of those touching rescued stories from the voice of her angel cat, Mr. Jazz and how he lead a sweet rescue ginger furball Jazmine (pictured above) to Deb and her family. You really have to read her sneak preview.By purchasing the book, a proceed will be donated to Riverfront Cats to help us with ongoing costs of caring for community, stray and injured cats--food, care, shelters, flea/tick medicines, spaying/neutering. This is wonderful and very much needed!
Order Your Copy of Rescued Volume 2
You can order your copy at Amazon. And if you would like to help in other ways, at Riverfront Cats we welcome any type of donation.Other donations needed:
- Cat food is always needed and feel free to email us for the brand of food they eat and to make arrangements to have it dropped off.
- Old towels, sheets, blankets. These are needed for the outdoor cat shelters or for transporting sick or injured cats. White towels are the best as bleach can be used to disinfect them well.
- Or financial donations. Just click on the donate button on top right column. With the volatile weather (rain, extreme cold, winds) we have to create more shelters for the cats and funding is needed.
- A dedicated part-time volunteer to answer emails, manage social media, etc. Education is key to overturning homeless pet epidemic in Miami!
