Lovely young cats and momma need homes. See pics below.

I feel like a these cats have been completely written off. They are shy with new people & scared in new places, like any cat would be that’s lived in one house for 6 months. We tried to send them to a bigger rescue to find them homes and they were rejected for being too fearful.

It’s hard to believe but the Auto Club family— mama Porsche & her now 7-month old kittens Ferrari, Mercedes, and Bentley— have had no applications. Not one for any of them. They’ve been growing up together in foster care, shy at first & needing a quiet home. Elkton, MD Apply crits4cats.petfinder.com

I sent an email about Adoption fees at Hempstead animal shelter. Here is their answer:
⬇️
"Right now our adoption fee is just $10 for dogs but typically it is $35. And we are fine with her either being adopted or sent to a rescue group, whichever route gets her out into the right home.

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

New York. About Melia Melia is a sensitive 3-year-old female dog who arrived at the shelter in October 2022 after being found abandoned in an empty apartment. Despite being briefly reclaimed and fostered, she has been returned to the shelter multiple times and has spent over 800 days there as of late 2025. Personality: Melia has a gentle spirit and thrives outside the stressful kennel environment, enjoying peaceful walks and quiet companionship with people she trusts. She is a bit nervous and needs a patient home that can help her learn to feel safe. Ideal Home: She requires a calm, low-traffic, adult-only home with no other dogs. An experienced adopter who understands that building trust takes time is essential for her success.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative
