We’re sad to share the passing of Benny 💔 He was having severe breathing issues related to either severe asthma or possible cancer. @myfostercatsnyc took Benny in for the past 9 months while this 15 yo senior waited for his forever home. At that they established a few bond and love for one another. @myfostercatsnyc , thanking for loving Benny. We’re so sorry for your loss ♥️

Bunny posted this to her Facebook & because I cant word it any better I wanted to copy & paste word for word here 💔 “Many people may wonder why I rescue seniors. Here’s an example of requests I get. I get a dm on fb from a man who wanted to surrender his two cats. 13 and 14 years old. Reason. New baby. He got the cats as kittens and obviously has raised them all these years. Cats are friendly and neutered. Wife doesn’t want them around the baby. The baby is learning to crawl and litter is all over the floor. Solution would be getting a top entry litter box. He would hate to take to the shelter as they are fairly old and there’s a good chance they will be put down immediately. His words. Unfortunately since I’m not going on FB as often I missed responding ASAP. I realized this and got back to him. During this time instead of trying me again he made an appt to surrender the cats to the Manhattan city shelter. I asked him some questions which he decided not to answer.
I knew the date he had to surrender and watched my emails from the shelter. They popped up. I was almost 100% sure they were his cats. I messaged him and he confirmed. He never responded to my questions because I didn’t commit to take the cats. Maybe if you had emailed me as I asked we could have made arrangements. Anyway, here is his response. They were given frequent vet visits and treated great for 14 years. Cats rarely make it to that age. I did what I could for them. If it matters to you so much go get them. This was after I told him
his cats didn’t deserve being subjected to an overcrowded kill shelter.
I’m going to post their pictures. I was making arrangements to pull both cats and put in a foster home. Turns out one has either been adopted or placed with a rescue. Not surprised. Gucci is the gray kitty. Chimi is the black kitty. I’ll be taking the other kitty and make sure he has the best last chapter he can.” #seniorcat #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #fosteringsaveslives #adoptdontshop #seniorcatsofinstagram #catsofnyc

Hannah needs a new foster or adopter ASAP. Locate

Hannah needs a new foster or adopter ASAP. Located in New York Hannah was rescued a few weeks ago from Brooklyn where her owner unexpectantly passed away. We discovered she’s 9 years old and was adopted by the girlfriend of the deceased from a Baltimore shelter when she was a kitten. Girlfriend has no interest in getting her back. She’s healthy. Gets along with the other cats in the current foster home. Probably best in an adult only home. She’s very sweet but at times can get a little overstimulated. Gives a little swipe and love bite. If interested in fostering or adopting please contact Frankie’s feline fund. Call or text 917-514-0228 or email frankiesfelinefund@gmail.com. Current foster was always temp and their girl is jealous of Hannah.

Pictures are worth a thousand words. 14 yr old Delilah in her new home. This picture was taken about 6 hours after she arrived. Delilah was brought into the Brooklyn city shelter due to a grandchild moving in who has allergies. We missed that she wasn’t spayed. While she was being fostered she developed a pyometra because of this. Luckily we caught it in time and she had emergency surgery. This people is why it’s so important to spay your kitties. This is also why senior cats deserve to get adopted- just look at how happy she is. We can’t thank our two foster moms @joanstonich and Karen Gonzalez enough for their help. Without them Delilah might not now be living on the Upper West Side of New York. It’s not all about kittens. Seniors make great companions. #seniorcat #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #fosteringsaveslives #adoptdontshop #seniorcatsofinstagram #catsofnyc

Ares and Poseidon were two middle aged cats Bunny

Ares and Poseidon were two middle aged cats Bunny brought up from Georgia 4 years ago. They were foster failures. One very lucky couple got them and even made them toppers on their wedding cake two years ago (swipe to the last picture to see!). This is what we call a bonded pair. Happy ending for these two beautiful seniors ♥️ #seniorcat #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #fosteringsaveslives #adoptdontshop #seniorcatsofinstagram #catsofnyc

Gingerman and Gingerale. 12 yr old siblings in need of a home after their owner passed away 💔 There must be someone looking for a pair, someone who can help these seniors out. Bunny was told they will be vetted this week and then will hopefully 🤞 be ready for a home. Can you foster? Better yet adopt?

Update on Hannah ♥️ She is doing well in her foster home 🏡 She’s very sweet but can get overstimulated. Because of this she really needs an adult only home, no kiddos. Preferably someone with cat experience. We still don’t know how she is with other cats. We’re looking for another foster for this beauty, the one Hannah is currently at was a temp only. Better yet, anyone interested in adopting this sweet senior?!

Pippin in foster home 🏡 He just arrived this morning, so far so good. He came into the shelter as a stray. Either the person who brought him in lied & they were the owner or he was dumped somewhere and found. This is the story of a senior cat 💔 #seniorcat #catsofinstagram #catsofnyc

A couple of weeks ago there was a FB posting of a woman who needed to rehome her 9 yr old cat. They had been at a bbq and a dog and another cat (not theirs) got into a fight. Traumatized the daughter to the point she was afraid of her own cat. Bunny had a young girl looking to adopt and this seemed like a good fit. I guess by this picture you can tell it is. Asia in her new home- happy ending 🥰 #seniorcats #seniorcatsofinstagram #catsofnyc #adoptdontshop #seniorcatsrule #seniorcatsrock

We posted Hobbes a little while back. Story is they were putting Hobbes on the emergency placement list. Meaning if he doesn’t get rescued he may be euthanized. Bunny was concerned so she reserved him. Turns out the person who adopted his brother, Calvin, also wanted Hobbes. Bunny spoke with her and the plan is for a Bunny to take him for a little while to change his insulin and see how he responds. Then Bunny will give her all the supplies and teach her what to do. Happy ending for this sweet big (and his brother!) 🧡🤍 #seniorcatsrule #seniorcatsofinstagram #seniorcat #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #fosteringsaveslives #adoptdontshop
