My name is Lebo & Rue!

Approx DOB: May 2024

Lebo (male, gray) was rescued by the fire department from a 4-inch wide 4-foot-deep drain on a farm in Carlisle. He was in that wet cold pipe for more than 24 hours. It took a lot of warm baths to bring him back up to temperature. As it turns out, he probably fell in that hole because he has mild cerebellar hypoplasia which means he wobbles a little bit on his back legs, especially when he’s walking, but he’s pretty good at running. He was treated for wounds on his neck and foreleg, fleas, worms, hypothermia, and severe ear infections.

Rue (female, tortoiseshell) was found in a tire well in Carlisle all alone. The finder took her in, gave her a warm dawn flea bath, good food and lots of snuggles. In care, she was closely monitored for a significant umbilical hernia. It did not seem to slow her appetite down however, she struggled to gain weight, even though she ate everything that was put in front of her. At 3 months she had hernia repaired and was spayed— it was a big surgery for a little 2-pound girl, but she handled it like the fighter. Over the next month, she quickly put on weight and grew stronger.

Lebo and Rue came into foster care within days of each other. After the standard two-week quarantine and deworming, they quickly bonded and helped each other grow in confidence and strength. While Rue is feisty and active and chases, just about everything she could hunt, Lebo is the lap cat who loves cuddling and belly rubs. They are both very food motivated and love to hunt in the fuzzy rug for an occasional treat. They also love wand toys, laser tag, and watching TV. These kittens would do well in any home as they grew up with many foster kittens and a 50-pound dog. They are gentle and loving.
