Welcome to 13thstcats.org

Jack
Jack was found wandering a neighborhood when someone noticed he had an wounded eye and asked us to help. His injured eye needed to be removed and his foster home nicknamed him - "One eye'd Jack". He was a very sweet and friendly boy, who clearly deserved a much better life than wandering the streets alone.
Sadly and unexpectedly, Jack developed a growth on his jawbone which was pushing on his windpipe. Given his FIV+ status, the difficult decision was made that it was best not to put him through any more stress or treatments.
Though he wasn't with us long, his foster home misses him dearly, and so do his foster roomate kitty-friends.
It's nice 13th St Cats was able to give him what turned out to be his last months off the streets, in less pain, and a comfortable living situation he seemed to enjoy.

Homie
Words cannot express the sadness of losing Homie. He was a very special kitty to his foster mom. Losing him was very difficult and she misses him dearly.

DeDe
DeDe was with our group for almost a year. Her person had died and she became homeless. She always meowed a hello when you walked into the room. She was very tolerant of all her roomates over the year- esp Esme- her look alike friend- who always wanted to play and disturb DeDe's slumber. She was ill for a few months as we struggled to find out the reason for her distress. She was put to sleep in my arms last week - she was developing FIP and there was nothing more we could do for her except to release her from these sad circumstances. She was a sweet soul and we will all miss her

Bunny
We have sad news to share with friends of the 13th Cats family. Our Bunny was diagnosed with cancer. We thought she might have a little more time with us, but sadly she has crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. Since getting sick, her main joy in life was curling up on her foster's bed, and in particular sleeping on her foster's head and purring all night long. We'll miss you Bunny.
