So close to the goal!

This community never ceases to amaze me.

Thank you for helping them! I sure do have a fondness for the orange boys.

Oliver (my orange boy) says thanks too!

@francesandfam Thank you for sharing the story. ❤️ Hope more people who care for these sweet lost kitties will join in to help with the vet bills.

My neighbor, while already juggling being a single mother in the middle of a move and big life changes…took in this baby in need. She’s been using her own money for his treatment and care.

I had to twist her arm to make a GoFundMe so please, if you have a few dollars to spare…little dude is worth it and this women is absolutely someone I co-sign and support with this.

If you can’t donate, please at least share and help spread the word.

Thanks fam!

After four years of building this work in public, we’re taking the next official step.

We are in the process of launching Vet Van Fleet, a nonprofit initiative designed to make veterinary care free and accessible for cats, especially in underserved and low-income communities. This effort is supported by a larger media and commerce ecosystem we’ve built over time, including https://t.co/C6orTB9HBV, https://t.co/jlm31aBaBq (our Amazon Live show), https://t.co/zaHbm6aVe7, and https://t.co/O5WZqbgzCJ.

Our work has been featured nationally in Newsweek (four features over a one-year period), as well as MSN, The Dodo, https://t.co/VkAjQcdA8w, and other publications. We also operate as official partners on platforms such as YouTube and Amazon Live, and we’ve collaborated with established brands while maintaining a transparent, community-first approach.

Up to this point, we’ve intentionally built everything ourselves, from websites and infrastructure to automation and content, to keep costs as low as possible. That approach allowed us to grow responsibly, but we’ve reached the stage where required legal and operational steps can’t be avoided.

This fundraiser is to cover the foundational costs needed to move forward properly, including:
•IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit registration and state filings
•Trademark filing and brand protection
•Website hosting, automation, and development tools
•Basic operating costs during nonprofit establishment

We’ve already helped raise thousands of dollars directly for cat families in need through our platforms. This step is about formalizing the work, ensuring compliance, and creating a foundation that allows us to scale responsibly through grants, partnerships, and institutional funding.

We’re raising $3,500 now, with a broader goal of $5,000 over the next six months, strictly for these setup and operating costs.

A full, itemized breakdown is available on the GoFundMe page.

Thank you to everyone who has followed, supported, and trusted this work. This is how we turn momentum into something sustainable.

So then why did I still adopt her? Because I knew they were wrong.

Shelters are overwhelming places. The noise, the confinement, the constant rotation of faces—it’s a high-stress environment for any animal. Yet, we make life-or-death decisions based on how they behave in that setting.

If they were wrong about her, how many others have they been wrong about?

Freya was labeled as aggressive. Unsafe. A risk. In reality, she was scared, in pain, and misunderstood. The moment she got out of that environment, she transformed. She wasn’t aggressive—she was desperate for love.

I know we can’t save them all. But we can save more. And that starts with recognizing that an animal’s behavior in a shelter isn’t the full story. It’s just one chapter in a life that could still be filled with love, safety, and second chances.

If you’ve ever rescued an animal who proved everyone wrong, drop their story below. Let’s remind the world why second chances matter.

If you don’t know this story, this little family, take a minute to catch up. This will make your day.

Our story started on Reddit back when they had live-streaming. During the streams people would gift us and some of the big gifts included some Reddit premium time. I just checked and this is how long we have Reddit premium because of that.

@francesandfam OMG Freya! You are such a princess 😂

[Flower @firstflowergal]

@francesandfam Holy cow! That’s an awesome outpouring of affection for you and your fur babies!!

[Flower @firstflowergal]

@francesandfam I love that Freya keeps trying ❤️

[Frances and Family @francesandfam]

It’s taken over a year to get to this point but damnit it’s progress!

Hey cat fam, need your help!
A fellow cat mom and community member of ours that has been with us from the start has fallen on tough times. This is her Amazon wish list for supplies for her cats. If you are in a place to donate, please do. She’s always been there for us. If you can’t donate (and that’s ok!) can you please share this? Please and thank you!

@francesandfam This is seriously the most amazing story of love and caring for a pup that was unwanted and just needed attention, training and belief that she has a place in this world.

[Flower @firstflowergal]

[Flower @firstflowergal]
