[Alley Cat Allies @alleycatallies]

Alley Cat Allies is still on the ground in Oahu, Hawai’i, to provide and strategize emergency relief after historic floods. Cats and kittens impacted by the floodwaters, even in areas where they have receded, will need support and care for a long recovery period ahead.

We're working to ensure cats' lives don't slip through the cracks of disaster response, especially community cats. If you'd like to support our Hawai’i flood response, your emergency gift today will be matched to make 2X the impact: ‼️ https://t.co/HH6QJgPMCy‼️

Bear, the koala detection dog who became famous because of his work during Australia's catastrophic Black Summer bushfires, is retiring at the age of 11. Bear was recruited and trained 10 years ago to sniff out koalas and other wildlife in need of rescue. https://t.co/AkE7R7euNj

‼️HAWAIʻI FLOOD RESPONSE‼️ Alley Cat Allies has been on the ground in Oahu to rush rapid response care to cats impacted by the flash floods.

Our Rapid Response Team set up feeding stations to provide food and water to community cats, and we're supporting local caregivers who are doing everything they can to care for the cats through it all.

Community cats are savvy survivors and have deep-rooted instincts that guide them to higher ground during floods. However, many cats have likely been displaced from their homes by the disaster. Alley Cat Allies is continuing to act on the ground, and we're working to connect with local organizations and advocates to strategize further action.

The scope of the flood impact--reportedly the worst on the islands in more than 20 years--is only now starting to be assessed. As we work to protect the cats of Hawaiʻi, your support will help us save lives. Please consider an emergency gift at https://t.co/vlXUwprlLu.
