TikTok/Instagram followers and supporters:

You may know us as Artem, Enzo & Maia—or The Floof Crew—on TikTok and Instagram. We have grown our following by showing our furry and fluffy kitties, from them being goofy, to terrorizing each other, lots of lovings, and adding onto our family with our newest addition: our kitten, Maia.

Friends/family:

Hi everyone, you may know that we have 3 cats—Artem, Enzo, and Maia. We weren’t looking to get another cat for a while, but things have changed when we recently moved. We are hoping you’re able to spread the word and help support this cause. He has become one of our family members. Please do not give out personal information—such as our current location, our last names, family members last names, etc.—as we would like to remain as private as possible with our PUBLIC following on social media. Thank you.

Backstory:

Behind the scenes, we’d like to introduce ourselves: we’re Allie & Sydney. Allie runs the account, editing & posting TikTok's/Instagram posts, answering emails and DM’s. Sydney helps with coming up with content ideas (& Allie).

This is very unusual for us to do, and we never thought we’d ever do this—but we are asking for help. We recently moved (within the last 2 weeks), and we had a stray cat that came up to our door one evening, begging for help (about 1.5 weeks ago) We can tell he was abandoned—he isn’t feral; he begs for love and attention for hours on end. Unfortunately, we cannot bring him in due to the risk it poses on our cats and on ourselves. We have been calling him Timon.

Every day, he comes to our back patio, sitting on the step, staring into our screen door, wanting to come in and be loved and given lots of pets. We give him food and water daily, and have built a little shelter for him to sleep in so he isn’t out in the cold (it is getting colder here in Michigan).

Talking with multiple Veterinarians and Veterinary Technicians (many phone calls to multiple clinics, and even asking family friends in the profession), we know he needs lots of veterinary care.

The type of care he would need from a Veterinarian includes but is not limited to:

- Examination + additional follow-ups visits

- Routine shots, such as FVRCP (Feline Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, and Panleukopenia); Rabies; Feline Leukemia (FeLV)

- Routine wellness testing (blood tests, such as FeLV/FIV) and any additional testing recommended by our Veterinarian

- Medications

- Flea + Tick meds

- Neutering (surgery)

- Food

- Litter

With all that being said, we know veterinary care for him would be pretty costly, as there would be a possibility he may need to stay at a vet hospital to receive proper treatment and to not infect our own cats.

Even the smallest contribution would detrimentally help. If we can raise enough money, we would love to take Timon in. We have already fallen in love with him. Unfortunately, at the moment, veterinary care would be extremely expensive, and all of the shelters around us are full, so they will not take him.

We intend on adopting him and to get him off the streets if we’re able to raise enough money. He chose us—he deserves to live a happy, worry-free life, in a safe and loving home that we would like to bring him into, and so he can meet his new brothers and sister

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you for all the love and support you have shown us ❤️
