No cat deserves a life of fear, pain, or neglect, but 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐝𝐚𝐲 they are kicked from their homes, starved, poisoned, left outside in extreme weather, or dumped when they’re no longer “convenient.” They are left to fend for themselves without food, water, and shelter. This isn’t just sad, it’s cruelty, and it’s not rare. The cats can’t speak for themselves, but we 𝐂𝐀𝐍 speak for them! 🚨 𝐍𝐞𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭 is starvation, untreated injuries and illnesses, and exposure to extreme temperatures, just to name a few. 🚨 𝐀𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐞 is violence, causing intentional fear, poisoning, and purposeful harm. 🚨 𝐀𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 is when cats are left behind after moves, tossed outdoors, or “set free” to fend for themselves. Often, they can’t. Do you want to take a stand? Here’s how: 🔎 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 suspected cruelty! Don’t assume someone else will. 📚 𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 others about humane treatment and cat behavior. Who better to educate others on cat behavior than us cat lovers! There are a ton of credible resources and YouTube videos to assist with behavioral issues. 🛠️ 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 rescues and shelters that rehabilitate cruelty victims. These kitties often come to us in worst case scenarios, and miraculously, they haven’t given up on humans as a whole. 📢 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 this post to raise awareness! Let’s be that unwavering voice that speaks up, the hands that help them heal from what others have done to them, and the people who never look away from the hard stuff. #animalrights #everycatmatters #kittenseasoncrisis #facilitaterescue #adopt #cat #fostercat #triangle #fuquayvarina #rescue #rescuecats #rescuekitten #adoption (fb)
