THE MISSION: HELP SAVE OUR BLOCK

Welcome! We work tirelessly to manage and protect our local feline neighborhood in Los Angeles. Currently, we actively care for a managed colony of 30 plus adult cats, all of whom are fully spayed and neutered (fixed)!

Unfortunately, outside unfixed roaming cats occasionally join the colony and bring their babies. While we have successfully caught and fixed the mothers of these recent litters and are actively working on trapping the remaining newcomers, we have a group of vulnerable kittens and medical-needs cats who desperately need to get off the streets and into safe, permanent indoor homes.

⚠️ THE HARSH REALITY

If we cannot raise the necessary funds to vet and place these cats, our community feeder will have no choice but to take them to a city shelter. Because local shelters are completely overwhelmed right now, these cats face an immediate and high risk of being euthanized.

Furthermore, the situation is incredibly time-sensitive due to external pressures. Sometimes, the owner of the property where the feeder lives will take matters into their own hands, posting the cats online and giving them away to anyone who asks. Handing out animals without proper veterinary clearance, medical treatments, or a thorough home check is incredibly risky for the cats’ safety. We are doing everything in our power to secure a safe, legitimate rescue pipeline and prevent this from happening, but we need your help.

🐱 MEET THE CATS & KITTENS

Click the links below to view full photos, medical updates, and detailed adoption profiles for each of our rescues:

• ☕ Espresso, Mochi & Latte (Approx. 2–3 Months Old): A beautiful trio of kittens consisting of a sleek black kitten (Espresso), a gray-and-white kitten (Mochi), and a white-and-gray tabby (Latte).

• 🌮 Nacho (Medical Recovery): An injured cat rescued in early June. Nacho is fighting hard but still requires ongoing veterinary attention, medical monitoring, and care. [👉 Click here to view Nacho’s medical progress]

• 👁️ Kyle (Urgent Eye Care Needed): A street cat in urgent need of medical intervention. Kyle is suffering from severe redness and heavy eye discharge requiring an immediate vet exam and antibiotic drops. [👉 Click here to view Kyle’s medical updates]

✈️ THE GOAL: Partnering with North Park Cat Rescue (San Diego)

We have an incredible opportunity! Espresso, Mochi, and Latte have a potential rescue placement waiting for them at a cat cafe in San Diego through North Park Cat Rescue (NPCR), the partner rescue for Whiskers & Wine.

However, to be accepted into their program, they must strictly meet specific requirements, which we must fund ourselves.

It is tentative that they are placed there because of capacity, but we are working closely with them. As a backup, we are also emailing a lot of rescues for the kittens and Nacho.

📋 ESTIMATED EXPENSE BREAKDOWN

To get everyone safe, healthy, and down to San Diego, here is exactly where your donations go:

• Vetting for the Trio (Espresso, Mochi & Latte): Approx. $900 – $1,275 total (Covers vet exams, health certificates, spay/neuter surgeries, microchipping, FIV/FeLV combo tests, 2 rounds of FVRCP vaccines, deworming treatments, flea medication, fecal tests, and Woods Lamp checks for ringworm).
• High-Priority Medical Cases (Nacho & Kyle): Approx. $250 – $1,500 (Covers Kyle’s urgent eye exam, diagnostic staining, and antibiotic drops, alongside Nacho’s ongoing medical recovery and monitoring).
• Private Rescue Transport: Approx. $150 – $350 (Hiring a dedicated, rescue-aligned private courier to safely transport the trio down the 130-mile I-5 corridor from Los Angeles to San Diego).
• Colony Food Supply & Emergency TNR Fund: Approx. $250 – $400 (Secures critical food resources for our 30+ adult colony street cats and establishes a trapping/vetting reserve for incoming strays).

🚨 Total Fundraiser Goal: $1,550 – $3,525

💝 TRANSPARENCY & OUR DONATION PLEDGE

Because time is of the essence, some of the kittens’ medical needs and appointments may be completed ahead of the actual event date. To make sure they don’t face any delays in their care, we may cover these initial costs upfront. Because of this, the proceeds raised from the benefit show will go directly toward paying off these immediate veterinary expenses and the credit card charges incurred to get them vetted.

Furthermore, because we are surrendering these sweet kittens directly into NPCR’s wonderful rescue program, we want to support them beyond just the entry requirements. If our fundraising efforts are incredibly successful and we raise a significant amount beyond our actual medical, transport, and credit card expenses, every single remaining dollar will be donated back to the cause.

Surplus funds will be split exactly 50/50:

• Half (50%) will go straight to our dedicated community feeder to fund a long-term supply of food for our 30+ colony street cats.
• Half (50%) will be donated directly to North Park Cat Rescue to help them care for the kittens and support their ongoing rescue mission.

🤝 GET INVOLVED: CONNECTIONS NEEDED!

This rescue mission takes a village, and we cannot do it alone. We are actively looking for community partners to make this event and our ongoing rescue efforts as impactful as possible.

Please reach out and send them my way if you know of any:

• Cat Rescue Resources: Local LA groups or independent rescues who can offer advice, resources, or voucher assistance.
• Potential Adopters/Fosters: Anyone looking to welcome an amazing new companion into their home.
• Guest Speakers: Educators, TNR experts, or colony managers who want to speak at the show.
• More Vendors: Food vendor (grill only) and Drink vendor (no alcohol or soda).
