Ok everyone, I need your help. This is the kitty who we believe was Jack’s mama (If you don’t know who Jack is go look at the last posts).

We don’t normally intake mama and babies, orphaned kittens under 4 weeks is our focus, and this is mostly a one woman show. I don’t have an area I can keep a mama cat without stressing her out with all the other cats here.

However, given the situation it feels extremely wrong to not intake this litter and UNSPAYED mama, knowing this is going to keep happening. She is a young mama probably not more than 6-8mo old herself.

We’ve had a few posts help increase our reach and we need to crowdfund paying down our $2200 vet bill. We intook 16 babies this year, that’s more than double what we took in last year and it comes with expenses that are not covered in the adoption fee.

The max our vet bill can get is $2500, so we need to pay that down/off in order to do take in these kittens. So do what you do internet and share this far and wide, please!

Next, we need a foster. You must be within 30-45 min of either Greensboro or Apex, those are the two places we have a vet. You must have a calm/quiet household, it is preferable that you do not have any other pets. If you do, you will need a room you can shut off so mama is not stressed.

A stressed out mama is one who could stop taking care of her kittens and then you will need to know how to bottle feed (I can train that).

You will also need to be willing and able to weigh the babies a 2-3 times a day to make sure they are gaining weight properly. Mamas with babies can be fairly easy to take care of since mamas pretty much all the work.

Right now mama and babies are mostly safe, but they are still outside and I would like to rectify this as soon as we can.

I cannot do that without your help! This community has helped us save the lives of close to 50 kittens over the past almost 3 years🎉

You can donate through our website (www.kaylastinytoebeans.org) or through the fundraiser here! Help us save Sunshine (the mama) and her babies, and make sure that Sunshine never has to go through being a mama again!

Why a “Go Bag” and a “Stay Bag” Could Save Your Sanity (and Safety) 🌪️🔥🌊

Disasters don’t send a save-the-date. Whether you have 60 seconds to evacuate or 60 hours sheltering in place, having a Go Bag and a Stay Bag ready isn’t paranoid — it’s practical.

Based on a detailed preparedness checklist, here’s why prepping both bags is a game-changer:

🎒 The Go Bag = Your evacuation lifeline
When you must leave quickly, decision fatigue is real. A Go Bag removes the panic of “what did I forget?”
Biggest benefits:

Speed & clarity – Grab one bag, and you have financial essentials (cash, cards, passports), medical needs (prescriptions, glasses), and critical documents (birth certificates, wills, insurance).

Barter-ready – Multiple currencies or tradeable items? Smart thinking for worst-case scenarios.

Pets & family included – Pet records, toys, and a second set of keys mean less chaos for everyone.

🏠 The Stay Bag = Comfort when you’re stuck at home
Not every crisis means leaving. Power outages, winter storms, or floods may trap you inside. A Stay Bag keeps essentials together so you aren’t rummaging through closets in the dark.
Biggest benefits:

Sustain & sleep – Sleeping bag, pillow, towel, meals (tuna, soup, microwave options) — actual comfort during disruption.

Emergency tools in one spot – LED flashlight, laminated floor plan, whistle, multi-tool. No searching under sinks.

Overlooked meds – OTC and prescription meds plus first aid. When pharmacies are closed, you’re covered.

🌍 Location-specific extras = real preparedness
The checklist adds a brilliant layer: tailoring to your risk.

Earthquake zone → work gloves, dust mask, protective suit.

Flood zone → rain gear, tarp, insect repellent.

Seasonal threats → sunblock, bug spray, camping gear (tent, heater, fan).

✅ The #1 hidden benefit
You stop hoping for the best and start owning the worst.
That alone lowers stress. You’re not scared — you’re prepared.

So grab a bag (or two), run through that checklist, and give yourself the gift of “I’ve got this.”
