@charlestasama They should be but your chances of getting them online are low because it’s only while they are available to be grabbed in-store. Like they take the product from the shelf so once it’s sold out it’s gone for both and people will be waiting to line up at 9am.
@StevnVGC@GlitchedDrops My manager himself told me we aren’t supposed to be putting them out until after the store closes because nothing is supposed to be sold until Wednesday when the “new week” starts for the store.

We Barely Had Time to Breathe...
We had only just said goodbye to our beloved King Leo after his extraordinary seventeen-month battle with cancer.
Our hearts @gandolf_s were shattered. The rescue was quiet.
Everything hurt. Sadness seemed to have beset every fur baby, and they all mourn.
Then, almost immediately, his lady love, Miss Tyde, became desperately ill. She stopped eating.
Tyde loved Leo deeply. Tyde is not a monogamous gal. She also deeply loved Leo's bonded pal Chester. They fought over her like two knights vying for the love of a beautiful princess. But when Chester passed last October, she immediately bonded even closer to her King Leo. Never apart. Always grooming him. Sharing meals. Naps. A rescue "item". A cat tale of furry Romeo & Juliet.
As Leo started to decline toward the end of his fight, she withdrew, no longer wanting to be touched. She stopped grooming herself. She slept nearly all day. She developed diarrhea. Then she seemed to struggle to breathe. Her little nose sounded completely blocked, and every symptom seemed to point in a different direction.
Grief? Cats do grieve, and they do it deeply. But it became apparent this needed immediate attention.
After everything we'd just lived through with Leo, and before that with our beloved Chester, fear settled over the rescue once again. Cancer hangs around the neck of the rescue like a pendant of pain and suffering. An evil visitor we pray will leave the fur babies alone. Our tiny friends should not have to go through such horrible disease!
So Tyde was taken in for testing.
What the vets have found so far has only deepened the mystery.
A x-ray revealed destructive changes to the bones within her nose, and her sinuses are completely filled with fluid and abnormal material. They collected biopsies to determine whether we're dealing with inflammatory disease, an aggressive infection, or cancer. Ear disease is also present. Her blood work shows an elevated white blood cell count, suggesting her body is fighting something. Her blood glucose was also elevated, which may simply be the stress of hospitalization...or it may be another piece of a puzzle we have yet to solve.
As I write this, we are still waiting for the biopsy results and the specialists' final CT interpretation.
The waiting is agonizing. Hopefully just a few more days.
In just two and a half short weeks, Leo's final emergency oncology care totaled $2,147.64.
Tyde's emergency hospitalization was $6,475.45.
Together, that's $8,623.09 in emergency veterinary expenses.
A true paw to the face and to the rescue budget.😮💨
To make sure Tyde received the care she needed, Priya had to dip into the $2,500 mortgage payment to help pay her hospital bill.
There wasn't another choice. With Care Credit account maxed, other credit cards on fire, we turned to the only available cash there was. Donations have been way down, and we understand that many are struggling to just get by. It's hard to express just how much we truly do hate to ask in these times of such need everyone is experiencing.
But we don't have a choice. As a rescue, much of our funding comes from the kindness and compassion of the community.
When one of your precious fur babies is suffering, you do whatever you have to do.
Now we're hoping, with a little grace from those who have always stood beside us, or some new hearts that may join in, that we can replenish those funds before the mortgage falls behind.
If you're able to help in any amount, we would be profoundly grateful. If it's $5 or $10, please don't think it won't matter. It all adds up. 👩👩👦👦
Many hands make light work.
Saying goodbye to Leo has been one of the hardest things we've ever endured.
To then be met with another frightening medical crisis, while still grieving his loss, and trying to move through each day in caring for everyone else, is very challenging.
We're holding onto hope.
Hope that Tyde's biopsy brings answers.
Hope that whatever is causing this can be treated.
Hope that our little family catches a break.

Regarding...
The kittens of our Forgotten Field Project
I will do a separate update for this. In the interim I'll say...
We have been working to get everyone S/N to be ready for adoption. Slow going.
I will tie this in with Leo and Tyde's bill info above by explaining that we have found a clinic that does discounted S/N, vaccines etc for $150 (m) $175 (f).
To date, 20 cats in total have been saved from the Forgotten Field so far. 😽(3 mothers/17 kittens)
11 have been fully vetted. 9 are left to do.
We had 6 kittens scheduled for S/N on 8/3, but we had to reschedule because the funds set aside for that had to be used for Leo's emergency care.
Now, we have rescheduled the following...
3 kittens 8/10.
6 kittens 8/20.
$1550. (8-female/1-male).
*While it's not the lowest "low cost clinic" out there, appointments for others are months out, and this price is a bit more palatable, as opposed to our regular vet whose prices have climbed to unreasonable rates, especially as a rescue having so many kittens.
$350 for females/ $290 for males. $3090!! They no longer want to give the rescue discount because a new owner has decided greed matters. Still, it would never be 50% off.
So... the S/N clinic it is.
We hope to be able to keep these appointments and repair the damage done to the mortgage funds. These babies are getting bigger by the day, and need to be ready for adoption.
A forever home is the goal of every rescue, the conveyor belt of love must keep moving. We love each and every tiny, precious little soul, but we have enough aging sanctuary babies (18) and while these kittens remain with us, the space is not available to others on the street who need saving.
We already now have a Mom and 5 little potatoes at a foster that we didn't have room for. That financial responsibility is ours also.
So...the babies need homes!
Thank you for loving these precious souls as deeply as you do, and giving what you can, either in dollars, shares, well wishes & prayers.
Your kindness has carried us through so many impossible moments before.
We're hoping you will continue to stand beside us.
🙏Please help if you can. Any amount.
🍲Even if it's to send a bag of food or some cans of wet. These babies are voracious eating machines and prolific 💩ers.
Any form of help is needed and deeply appreciated.
🙏Share if you will.
🙏And put paws in for our beautiful Tyde...that healing be hers. 🙏
With grateful hearts,
The Kitty Servants of Gandolf's Legacy Cat Rescue of Atlanta🐈⬛😽

🆘EMERGENCY 🆘 SICK KITTEN FOUND LYING ON THE STREET🆘 Little baby is barely breathing. We rushed to the location to get him, we really hope we’re not too late. Please donate by clicking the link in our BIO 💔REPOST💔
Just a girl going home after saving two CH kitties from death row at the shelter ❤️
The feeling we get when we save a life is an unexplainable high. It gives us purpose, motivation, and strength to go on! Cats are one of the most wonderful and innocent creatures in this world.
A small setback for Fredo.
After making it through his complex jaw surgery, Fredo began to show signs of discomfort—and sadly, he started chewing on himself, causing his jaw to reopen slightly. It’s heartbreaking, but not uncommon in animals recovering from painful procedures.
*URGENT***We were contacted about a little kitty in dire need of help... As you can see, something is terribly wrong with one of her eyes. Please help us save another life by donating in our BIO. Thank you! Updates to follow. ❤️PLEASE REPOST❤️
Roxie’s eyes are gradually improving. She may always have a cloudiness due to a chronic eye infection, but this baby can see purrfectly. She’s amazing at chasing the laser pointer around.
Yes, she is under veterinary care and is receiving treatment.
PAYPAL INBIO PLEASE DONATE.
Surgery Delayed — But Big News Ahead!
After three long months of recovery, we were finally ready to move forward with Cindy’s life-changing surgeries. But during her pre-op exam, vets discovered she has ringworm—a common, but contagious fungal infection.

Dear friends, I've been trying to trace back on our posts for Leo to say personal thank yous.
You've all been so incredibly loving and kind. I've gotten as far back as the messages below, and lordy, there is so much kindness here. 😭
I've been at this all day, but I promise I will get to you. You should never go "unthanked". You took the time to read, to care, to share for him.
I hope that you accept my words of gratitude in lieu of Priya's @gandolf_s for the time. She is unable to take the time right now, because the rescue needs all of her attention, even though in deep grief and unable to respond, as to see and read them leaves her in a puddle, and in rescue, you have to schedule your puddle as best you can.
15 kittens, 17 sanctuary seniors to feed, scoop, medicate where needed, clean...it's hard when your heart is breaking, and she is not feeling well on top of it. She'll be back on. I hope you don't go away if you don't see her posting. She just doesn't have the wherewithal right now.
And this morning, our beautiful Tyde was taken through Emergency. Can she not just have ONE WEEK of peace😮💨
Tyde is quite sick. Gone off her food, doesn't want to be touched, coughing, diarrhea, sleeps all day, stopped grooming, sinuses sound blocked..she's a mess. Just an odd combination of symptoms.
So they hospitalized her for exploratory testing.
Another hair raising bill.
5 kittens are also scheduled this week for their spay/neuter.
And the food cupboard is in dire need. 32 bellies to fill.
If I may humbly ask, for a little help. 🙏😮💨

Tyde💓
Can anyone please help by sharing for free, commenting anything at all? We have one like a day/visitor on a good day. Tyde was taken to emergency on Tuesday and immediately following bloodwork and Xrays admitted to ICU through Thursday afternoon. Some results are still pending, but she is a horrible mess on top of losing her lifelong boyfriend Leo💔 Her bill was $6465.75. I will post along with all the others I have not been able to from exhaustion, poor health and taking care of everyone. Thank you🙏

Update: Sadie has been through so much. She underwent dental surgery for a swollen cheek and had shotgun pellets removed from her face after someone cruelly shot her. Tests also show her kidneys need close monitoring. She’s now on fluids and a special diet to protect them.
