Shame on people! I have the most loving babies to the point it takes probably a hundred shots before I can get a good picture because they are all over me, stepping on each other to get to me, rubbing on my hands, arms, pawing at me for attention. They are solely judged on their fear of strangers!
🆘🆘 LEO (ID 239429), 2 YO, MALE – IN QUEENS ACC - came into the shelter as an aco - owner surrender on 5/16/2026, with the surrender reason stated as animal behavior - destructive tendencies. 🆘🆘 😿 😿 😿 😿
🆘🆘 UPDATE – UPDATE – POOR POOR LEO WAS RETURNED TO THE EPL ON 10/4/26 – LITERALLY ON BORROWED TIME NOW – BEYOND URGENT – LET’S HELP HIM GET SAFE 🆘🆘
➡️TBD 10/17/26
➡️ TOO LOW ON PLEDGES TO STIMULATE RESCUE INTEREST
➡️ TOO LOW ON PLEDGES TO STIMULATE RESCUE INTEREST
➡️🆘🆘 15TH Chance on Emergency Placement List – 15 TIMES IS ALMOST UNPRECEDENTED –VERY, VERY RARELY DO YOU SEE IT THIS HIGH - TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR LEO – SHELTER IS AT CAPACITY - ALL HANDS ON DECK - NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT/HELP LEO - HIGHEST EU/SILENT KILL RISK- VERY LIKELY LAST CALL🆘🆘 😱🔥🔥😱
➡️ 153 DAYS IN SHELTER – TOO LONG – TIME IS RUNNING OUT
➡️ LEO IS ON THE EPL FOR BEHAVIORAL REASONS - While social in the care center, he displays signs of overstimulation during interactions and has a bite/scratch history. He is extremely intelligent and high energy, and needs to expend energy constructively with interactive play sessions 3-4X/day. In addition to playtime, this cat would also benefit from mental exercise from activities such as puzzle toys/games, lick mats, or clicker training. Without providing activity for his mind and body, the cat may react with rough play, potentially resulting in bite/scratch incidents. This designation often means that the cat will be given very little time for rescue/foster/adoption.🔥🔥🔥🔥
A volunteer writes: "Leo is a sweetheart who displays a lot of kindness, consideration for others, and affection," and honestly, that's all you need to know to understand why everyone here adores him. But there's even more to love. "He is very friendly. He tends to like to be around people, involved in whatever you're doing, and loves to sleep on our laps or at our feet." His previous family shared that Leo has always loved meeting new people, greeting visitors with enthusiastic head bunts, cuddles, and plenty of charm. That affectionate, social spirit shines through every day at the shelter. The moment someone walks by, Leo stretches his chunky paws up on his door, eager to say hello and hopeful that today might be his day. He rolls onto his back, reaches for attention, and greets each new visitor like an old friend. Leo is one of those cats who simply wants to be part of your world. Whether he's supervising your chores, soaking up affection, or flopping over for belly-up stretches, he brings a special mix of sweetness, goofiness, and companionship that has made him a staff and volunteer favorite. Leo is looking for the right home where his behavioral needs can be understood and managed. He has a history of getting extremely overstimulated. He would prefer a home without any children or any other pets. He needs lots of playtime and enrichment to help him settle in and live his best life. Beneath it all is a big-hearted, affectionate cat who has never stopped believing that his people are out there. We can't wait for the day this lovable boy finally gets the happy ending he's been waiting so patiently for. Leo is in need of some extra activity due to his weight gain in care. He would benefit from a strict diet and some exercise to help him on his weight loss journey❤️ 😻❤️ 😻❤️ 😻

💔😿🙏Thank you
The emotional pain I feel is indescribable. I just cried hard. They were 6 weeks old and now they are 5 months old growing up in a crate, being robbed of their kittenhood💔. They have tripled in size, and not one person in the USA can open up their hearts to these amazing, beautiful souls. They are not food motivated, nor treats, but think I am their forever hoom and just want to be loved. The videos I take speak for themselves. When someone comes by they freeze. They pile up on top of each other, and not given a second look. No questions, no compliments, no empathy…They are the most loving, loyal, sweet babies who need someone to see them. When you have kittens this long their bond to each other only gets stronger day by day. It is cruel to now break them up, but that is the reality. Zeena, Chester, Benji and sister Penny are available as bonded pairs only because I know there is no one to keep them all together💔 I need help. There is someone out there that can make a difference, open up space for more babies to come in before winter hits hard. Share on your facebook,Instagram, Tiktok, Nextdoor, anywhere possible. You could be the one to make a a lifetime of difference for these babies. PLEASE RETWEET 💔🙏
In need of dire help for vetting and finding homes in advance for these 5 precious hissy spitty storm babies. Please keep retweeting ❤️🙏🫂

Wed-Saturday 14 hrs in cold/rain spent trying to get the dumpster babies. After 3 hours last night I was able to get 4. The number was always 4 but on Friday night a 5th appeared. One baby got left behind 💔 I had a drop trap and 4 baby traps set but he was not having it😭 I waited an extra hr after securing 4 and then the rain hit. So back at it tonight 😴. Naturally they are terrified. These are Zena’ group real cousins, who are now fighting each other because of the scent of the new kittens next to their crate😭. Received $54 in donations the last week. So, now I will have 5 new babies to take to first vet visit, then full vetting… again I ask please don’t just like but free retweet for help. Thank you 🙏

15 kittens rescued.😸
Only TWO adopted😮💨
We honestly never imagined we'd be writing those words. When Priya discovered the Forgotten Field back in May and began pulling tiny, frightened, starving kittens from the weeds, thorn bushes and trash, we thought the hardest part would be saving them and getting them vetted.
Surely, once they were safe, healthy, socialized, fully vetted and ready for adoption, loving families would come!
But. they. have. not.💔
Fifteen kittens came into @gandolf_s rescue through this project.
Only TWO have found their forever home!
And these babies have waited. And waited. We've never had a shortage of adopters for cute kittens!
They're now about four - five months old and beyond ready to begin the lives we rescued them to have. They are loved here. Deeply.
But a rescue is not a forever home.
They deserve their own people. Someone who thinks the sun rises and sets on them. They deserve the individual love and attention that only a family of their own can give them.
And now there is another urgency.
The Forgotten Field did not get cleared out because we ran out of room.
Four more kittens have just been discovered in the Forgotten Field.
They're out there now. And we have no room. They appear about 6 wks old.
We cannot leave vulnerable babies to grow up in a field beside traffic, hiding in thorn bushes, searching for food and shelter and trying to survive rain, cold, predators, illness and all the dangers that come with being tiny and alone outdoors. We know what happens there. Coyotes and high traffic roads.
But before we can make room for the next ones, some of these babies need to GO HOME!
So I have tried my very best to make them an adoption video worthy of them. I'm certainly no professional graphic designer. I'm just someone who desperately wants these babies to have forever homes and for people to stop scrolling long enough to
👁️SEE THEM👁️😽😽😽😽😽😽😽😽
So... 🚘 WELCOME TO THE GANDOLF'S 2026 FORGOTTEN FIELD MODEL SHOWROOM!
We've got every make and model of sweet cat love. All fully serviced and ready to roll into their forever homes!
And please don't assume you need to live in Atlanta. Gandolf's does not limit adoption to local families. Atlanta, like so many cities, is overwhelmed with homeless cats!
Shelters are packed. Rescues are full. Kitten season pours still more babies into a system already bursting at the seams.
So why limit these kittens' chances to one city? We don't.
For the right home,WE TRANSPORT.🚗❤️
Our Gandolf's babies have found families in Ohio, New Hampshire, the Carolinas, Florida, Missouri, Texas and more. We believe in finding the right home, wherever that home happens to be.
We especially love seeing kittens adopted with a buddy, and some of these babies are very bonded. Single kitten adoptions may also be considered depending upon the kitten and the home.
One last thing about this video.
Turn your sound UP. I deliberately didn't add music. That soundtrack you're hearing?
It's them. 🥹Those are their little purr motors. They love their pets. They love people. They love to be loved.
Some will drive straight off the lot like they own the road, while others appreciate a low speed break in period while they learn their new home and people. As a reminder...all new babies should be given time to decompress and get acquainted. But they're ready.
They have waited long enough.
Please consider opening your heart and home to one of our Forgotten Field babies, or perhaps two. ❤️
And if adoption isn't possible…
PLEASE SHARE THIS VIDEO.
Share it until somehow, somewhere, it reaches the person who looks at one of these little faces and says: "That one. That's my baby."
Because four more little lives are waiting in that field. And these beautiful babies are waiting for their families.
**BONUS**😻
A generous donor has promised a $150 Chewy gift card to go home with every baby adopted!!
Please, someone love these beautiful souls who were saved from that awful field of thorns and trash with a promise of love and a family beyond their wildest dreams!🙏❣️
What is consistent is that we have been invisible for awhile 😭, vet visits, vet debt, all but one person helping on Amazon, donations extremely scarce…I have been fighting Flu A since last Friday and it was taking every cell in my body to be able to move to take care of 33 mouths. Yesterday afternoon the tuxedo baby I suspect to be Halo’s sibling was in the very back of the yard literally trying to eat old bones mixed in with mud💔. I have not seen here during the day for sometime until yesterday. And the last few times caught her on camera around 3am close to the coyote duo. I had enough of watching the suffering, not knowing if enough food would be left if any whenever she came… not knowing if the coyotes would eventually get her. I set the drop trap. 2 hrs later she came, and trapped. She was taken to the vet to check if a female and if so nursing? I was so worried there were kittens out there. They said she was not lactating. So, despite only 2 adoptions in over 3 months a new baby to take care of now. She is tiny, emaciated, severe diarrhea and very feral. The temps significantly dropped overnight but she will be warm with a full belly. Please give a free retweet for help. She needs to be fully vetted asap to help calm her hormones. I will have to trap the black floof next week. 🙏 https://t.co/kSvbDH9ams
Please help by a free retweet. The vet bills for September 9/September 11 were $1216.25. Due to horrific -doesn’t describe significant issues in the home, I am having to relocate groups of kitties, rearranging the entire home and in need of more cat trees… if anyone is able to donate a few $ or send a Chewy ecard to [email protected] I would be deeply grateful 🙏 and if not a free retweet would be greatly appreciated.

➡️ 🆘🆘 1ST Chance on Emergency Placement List – VERY URGENT – 🆘🆘 😱🔥🔥😱

He needs placement in a home and outpatient management with a local veterinarian to manage his condition long term. This evaluation/diagnosis means that TOBY STREET will be given very little time for rescue/foster/adoption.🔥🔥🔥🔥
What my friends at ACC say about me: I can go home today! My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet! It is unknown if I have ever lived with other animals or children. I am a sweet, social, older gentleman, looking for the perfect forever home! I am a cat that is in need of a lap! I can't wait to be your new lap cat. ❤️ 😻❤️ 😻❤️ 😻
