Cat rescue and sanctuary in Tucson, Arizona
💔 Today we lost one of the most beloved cats we will ever have. MELON spent every day cuddling with her "husband" Squishmallow, screaming to have breakfast in at least two places, and formed a special bond with volunteer Sandy after YEARS of winning her trust. This one is too hard to talk about. 😭
18mo DOTTIE has been here 270 days and is "dreaming" of a new home! Now that her foster mom bought her a sweater, can you resist this adorable baby? She wants to be an only cat, please!
We are CLOSED from September 24-28! All messages will be returned on the 29th. Have a wonderful weekend!
HUGE news from us! We had our BEST DAY EVER with EIGHT adult cat adoptions!!! Congratulations to Pippin, Britches, Lils, Nikki, Dulce, Ranger, Boogieman, and Church!
Last week we asked for help raising funds for our damaged medical bay. We were able to raise $960 of the $2,000! Thanks all! Our current big need, in addition to the above, is FRISKIES WET FOOD. We are very, very low. Thank you for your consideration! Donate here: www.whiskerssanctuary.com/donate
Pops (7) is loving, cuddly & gives the best head bumps. He also smacks when overstimulated & isn't always predictable. His other option is the street. He needs an experienced cat person who gets him! 💛 #Tucson #AdoptDontShop #WhiskersNWishes
📖 I try not to do a lot of crossover, but W'N'W founder Emily has two highly-rated books on the market now! If you want to read a novel about depression, trauma recovery, and healing, or just want to support a local indie author, give it a shot! a.co/d/018kqTvV
Stephen is one of the best cats we've ever had! He's happy to be held like a baby, he has super unique markings, and he's SUCH a cuddle bug! He gets along with most other cats and all children. Dogs must be calm and not cat aggressive. Come cuddle this guy, you WON'T regret it!!
BRITCHES and PIPPIN are stunning, chunky 10yos who are in need of a new home. They lost their mom and are very sad. Britches is loving and cuddly, Pippin is shy. They would prefer to be your only cats. Who can give them a soft landing??
🚨 We are currently building 👷 a brand-new quarantine area with air conditioning! 😺 Unfortunately, our funds are VERY low and we have to stop the project until we raise more. 😢 Can you help us this week? The goal is $2️⃣ 0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣! whiskerssanctuary.com/donate
With Dreamy adopted, 18 month old DOTTIE is now our most long-term resident. This girl is in foster, LOVES to cuddle, LOVES to groom you, and in general wants to be close 24/7. She wants to be your only cat, please! #catsoftucson
Boogieman (4) & Church (3) are a bonded pair. They're chill, sweet and good with kids, cats, and dogs. Two for the price of one, and they're so easy going! 🖤 #Tucson #AdoptDontShop #WhiskersNWishes
Holler is a 2yo orange menace who yells for breakfast, sleeps upside down & rests in places that make no sense. 135 days in rescue. He's a lot, but perfect. #Tucson #AdoptDontShop #WhiskersNWishes
Chris Angel lost his bonded mate and we feared the worst. Instead, he flourished! Now this playful, curious 2-year-old is ready for a quiet home (no dogs/kids). His glow-up is amazing! #Tucson #AdoptDontShop #WhiskersNWishes
Dreamy has been waiting 232 days. Gentle lap cat, loves people, dogs & kids. Prefers female cat companions. Has come close to adoption multiple times but still waiting for the right person to say yes. 💙 #Tucson #AdoptDontShop #WhiskersNWishes
FOUR years of our chief volunteer SANDY, who shows up some 362 days a year and is always just a text away. We would have closed 10 times over without her keeping everything in line. Everyone say YAY SANDY! 🥳
It's our weekly plea to find a home for 3yo DREAMY, cuddly lap cat who loves to play, gets along with kids, cats, and dogs, and is a fluffy boy with a broken little tail. This is a SUPERB cat!!
Today, Ranger was ghosted. He had an appointment, but they never came to meet him. Ranger is a perfect orange cuddle bug who gets along with other cats and kids. ...Send Ranger some cuddles for his sad day! 💔
We LOVE getting updates on some of our old residents! Shayla, Mylo, Sporty, and Sweetie all say hi!
Shhhhhh, HOLLER is sleeping. Please do not wake him unless you want to come adopt him! He is a 2yo neutered male, gets along with cats and kids, and is adorable! PS We've had him since April... a young orange male. HOW!? #catsoftucson
Thank you to everyone who shared our heartbreak yesterday. Losing two in one day is gut-wrenching, but kind words from the community helps so much. Donate here: whiskerssanctuary.com/donate
Rhett and Dopey have waited far too long. Someone needs to be their savior! #catsoftucson #felvcats
Meet COOGIE! 🤍 This beautiful 1-year-old girl is gentle, a little shy, and absolutely stunning. She would love to go home with her pal Mamas or sweet floppy Moota. She sure loves feeding time! Fixed, vaccinated, wormed & microchipped. #Tucson #AdoptDontShop
Meet MOOTA! This gorgeous 2-year-old tabby boy is floppy, gentle, and loves belly rubs. He is great with other cats, brings zero drama, and will absolutely melt into your hand given the opportunity. Fixed, vaccinated, wormed & microchipped. #Tucson #AdoptDontShop
We've got everything you need at Whiskers N Wishes! Come visit our #Tucson sanctuary and adopt yourself a perfect cat!
We love updates from our adopters! Orange Crush, now Carlos, has a new sleeping spot... looks comfy!
We are so blessed to have AMAZING donors that keep us going, year in and year out, day in and day out. Without you, we wouldn't be at just short of 800 adoptions lifetime! Think of how many cats you all save with each $5 donation, or each box of Friskies... it's remarkable!
We have 41 amazing cats available to adopt! Make an appointment here: www.whiskerssanctuary.com/book-online
🚨 CAPER - who might actually be a lemur? - found out we don't have any BFF cat food in stock. Some of our cats will ONLY eat this food. Special call out asking for this food - or any Friskies/Fancy Feast - from our wishlist. Please and thank you!! www.whiskerssanctuary.com/donate
