Tippy & Finny enjoying their new home – July 2026Tippy & FInny with new Mom – July 2026
A couple weeks ago our two gorgeous Siamese sisters got a new & wonderful home!!! These 2 girls, TIPPY & FINNY, were trapped & rescued as teens at the Atlantic Seafood place in Hampstead.
These girls were 2 of the 70 cats I rescued from the Atlantic Seafood place before it was completely torn down!
Tippy was named after a Black Tip Shark. Finny was simply named after all the fish with fins!
These 2 stunning blue-eyed Siamese mix kitties were always a little timid and shy, but I knew, given the chance, they would do great in a home…..just the 2 of them together!
A wonderful lady saw the good in these cats and the beauty they exhibited! The adopter is a dog trainer, so that thrilled me knowing she would have the patience and understanding these “Meezers” needed!
Tippy – July 2026Finny – July 2026
The sisters were quite scared at first, but are slowly improving just as I knew they would.
A camera was placed in their room & im attaching a funny video at their new home!
I have complete confidence that the Meezers are in the “purrfect” home. I know they will get the love, understanding & patience needed while waiting for their confidence to build. It WILL happen because it always does! The more time the Meezers get petted, hand fed, talked to & handled, the quicker they will realize that they are safe! It may take a few months, but it will be so rewarding when it does!
Look at these pictures! Two of the most beautiful, kind & humble cats we ever rescued!

Aug. 3, 2026 Good news – Friends of Felines has agreed to hold on to him and FURR has agreed to sponsor his care until his lice treatment is completed. Whew! It takes a village!
Aug. 2, 2026 – We’re running out of time! We need a temp (6 week) foster TODAY! Please share with others!
July 31, 2026 URGENT! BY SUNDAY, 8/2, I need a temporary (6 week) foster for a Trap-Neuter-Release cat we caught that has lice! This condition is absolutely *not* contagious to dogs or people but highly contagious to cats! We need someone with a spare room or a bathroom where I can set up a cage away from cats.
Please call or text Terry Schultz at 864-483-2444 to help!
URGENT! This cat is in horrible shape and needs to be medicated (which Terry will do) once every 2 weeks for 6 weeks before he is released back into his colony. If he is released now, he will suffer and he will spread his lice to all the other cats in the colony!
PLEEEEASE HELP! FURR will provide food, litter, medication, cage, blankets and everything needed. Terry can also come to feed him and clean litter once a day if he is in the Hampstead area.
All you have to do is provide the space!
Please note that space in a garage *must* be air conditioned.
Thank you in advance for helping us help this poor cat!
Early July, 2026 Salvie is Adopted! See her in the photo above relaxing in her new home.
Here is her story …
My niece & her roommate found SALVIE roaming around outside a Salvation Army store!
When they asked inside about the cat, they said she must have been dropped off & Animal Control was about to be called! They did NOT want a kitty anywhere near the store.
This kitty was very friendly and wanted to be rubbed & held!
My niece & her roommate brought her home & called FURR to rescue her.
I called her “SALVIE” and she was a wonderful, beautiful cat! We got her healthy, spayed & shots. She was so happy to be at FURR & she loved all of us volunteers…..BUT! She never took a liking to the other cats!
I don’t think she thought of herself as a cat! We knew she would be happy in a home with no other cats to steal away any attention.
A wonderful couple adopted SALVIE & they LOVE her! She is living her best life now & although we miss her, we are thrilled for her great opportunity to have a home!

Terry appears on Fox News Wilmington’s “Paws for the Cause” Program with Salvie! Watch their video!
Meet this beautiful 8-month-old female kitty who is ready for her forever home! 💕
Salvie and Terry on Fox News Wilmington Feb. 6, 2026
She is already spayed, up to date on shots, blood tested, and ready to go. This sweet girl is a domestic short-haired dilute gray tortie with an incredibly soft coat and a BIG personality!
✨ What makes her special: • Sweet, affectionate, and playful • Energetic and loves to chat • Doesn’t like other cats and has NO idea she’s one! • Absolutely LOVES people and being the center of attention
She would do best as the only cat, soaking up all the love and cuddles from her humans. 🐱💙
Dec. 14, 2025 Yesterday my niece called me. She & her roommate went to the Salvation Army to drop off some things and a young kitty came running up to them screaming for food & attention.
They asked the SA folks about the cat & they had called animal control to pick her up. Several employees were allergic to cats, so they did not want her hanging around the store.
Salvie relaxing – Dec 2025
No doubt, someone dumped her there. She was extremely sweet.
My niece asked me to take her & I agreed to take her under FURR, but that she would have to foster her until we had room.
“SALVIE” is really precious, not microchipped & now safe, warm & fed in my niece’s bathroom!

September 2026 – We are BONDED brothers! Both of us are about 4-years-young and just “BEAUTIMOUS” in PawPrints magazine! That’s me, Orange Roughy, on the left. I have long blonde hair! Red Fish is on the right. He’s more of a crew cut guy!
We love to play together, eat together and just hang out together! FURR is working hard to get us a home together! We are both totally vetted and ready to go! We are a teensy shy at first with new people, but after we get to know you, it’s all GREAT from there! Please come to meet us…we are waiting so patiently for YOU! To arrange a visit, text 864-483-2444 or send an email to adoptafurrcat@gmail.com.
Orange Roughy’s equally handsome and brother Guppy needs a patient, loving foster home as they are very shy, so they need help preparing for adoption into a FURR-ever home someday.
They were just kittens when I trapped & saved them from a seafood production plant that was closing down.
The kittens had been traumatized, starved & constantly dodging massive tractor trailer trucks & equipment. They were pitiful & barely alive when I finally caught them.
Guppy
These 2 brothers have come through a tremendous journey. They are both now healthy & kind, but still very very cautious especially around someone new.
We have worked hard to help them gain confidence and feel safe, but no one will adopt them or give them a chance. Most adopters are looking for a “purrfect” cat that will make themselves happy. Im looking for that selfless adopter that wants to save a life or two because that is what paying it forward & rescue work is all about.
These two beautiful sweet boys need time & love. If you think you have patience & a big heart for the not-so-purrfect cats, give me a call! As soon as you meet these precious souls, your heart will tell you what to do.
I feel so sorry for these cats after so many rescues have come & gone and they still wait for a chance of a home.
“Orange Roughy” is the big, beautiful long haired orange boy and “Guppy” is his gorgeous orange & white brother.
I pray for them every day. I know their angel adopter is out there somewhere!

April 12, 2026 Great news! Look for the following article about Marty appears in the April 2026 issue of PAWPRINTS MAGAZINE with the before & after pictures (above):
“I am MARTY. I have survived the impossible! When FURR was finally able to catch me (after a long & patient 6 weeks), I was BROKEN! FURR helped me come back to life! I was injured, feral, skin & bones, frightened, hurting & bitter. I have had 3 surgeries, medications and more love than I ever knew. My leg was broken, my eyes were infected, I wasn’t neutered, I was COVERED in fleas & anemic AND my teeth were broken, rotten or falling out. My ears were almost chewed completely off. I was BROKEN!
A miracle occurred. Instead of being euthanized, FURR saw hope! I had eye surgery, neuter surgery & dental surgery. I have been made whole again & I have come to see the good in people that love me! I am fat, shiney & loving! Give me scratches and treats and the joy I will give you back is immeasurable!
I am looking for that special person that wants ONE cat (ME!) since I now am the submissive kitty in the rescue. If I can now be healthy, sweet and whole again, don’t I deserve the best love out there?
It’s me, ya’ll. Im MARTY…. the broken cat that is now whole again!
Text Terry at 864-483-2444 for a chance to be overwhelmed when meeting me! I just do that to people when they look at my sweet face! My scars tell a story. Let me tell YOU all about it!”
Marty doing great March 2026
March 24, 2026Watch his new video – he is ready for adoption!
A long journey but so worth it! This broken kitty is now READY for the best possible home we can find for him!!!
Help me network for an amazing home for this beautiful rescued cat!
Feb. 7, 2026 New video of Marty enjoying affection and life in general now that he’s seeing and feeling much better!
Marty enjoys affection – Feb 2026
Jan. 28, 2026 Update on MARTY! HE is doing fantastic! I sent a picture of his eyes to the specialist vet & she was very pleased!
I really think MARTY is happier now that he can see better! He doesn’t flinch as much when I’m touching him and he just seems to be in a better happier state!
Of course, he is on pain meds for a few days, so that can’t hurt. He takes his meds like a champ.
Can you believe this is the same cat!???
Look at these before & after pictures. Also, we will have enough donations to cover his surgery!!!
Marty – 3rd eyelid issue before/after surgery – Jan 2026
Jan. 27, 2026 EYE SURGERY SUCCESSFUL! The vet said it went very well! MARTY was a trooper the whole time. I had to give him a pill early this am to sedate him a little bit per the vet’s request. I was able to pill him with ease. He trusts me so much now, that he cooperates with any of my requests!
I took him in early for surgery (no problems whatsoever with loading him in a carrier or riding in the car!) I talked with him during the car ride just to try to ease his mind. He never made a peep.
I picked him up later today & the surgery was over & went well, but MARTY was still sedated. I couldn’t see his eyes because he was sleeping.
This evening he was more alert, ate his dinner & took a pain pill I gave him with no hesitation. He eyes were partially open & looked a little reddish & swollen. The vet told me it would be a few days before he would look normal.
I will send before & after pics in a few days.
Terry with Marty – Jan 2026
Jan. 25, 2026 FUNDRAISER for MARTY’s EYE SURGERY $1,200! MARTY is having eye surgery! Last week I took him to the animal eye specialist and she agreed that surgery would help him see better. It will also make him a lot more handsome, even though I think he is adorable just the way he is!
MARTY’S 3rd eyelids do not retract and we don’t know why. It could be from his many fights & injuries. It inhibits his sight because the 3rd eyelids are always up.
There was an opening on the surgery schedule for this MONDAY, Jan 26th, so I scheduled him for then! (Hope the weather holds out)
Im excited to be able to help him see better! His surgery plus office visit will run about $1,200.
I will follow up with everyone after his surgery!
Say a little prayer for MARTY that surgery goes well & fixes another part of his poor broken down body!
Jan. 16, 2026 Update on Marty in this video, watch him enjoy Terry loving on him like they’ve been friends forever! Eating well, fur coat healthy and soft and a sweet boy to boot!
Terry works with Marty – Dec 22, 2025
Dec. 23, 2025 Update: Marty’s Transformation continues, broken leg healing, enjoys the other kitties and trusts Terry when she works with him in this video.
He’s come a long way, though we’re still working on his eye and leg issue.
Sept. 9, 2025 Watch this video of MARTY last night showing his progress!
Today, I picked him up after his dental surgery surgery to address his many broken teeth, roots exposed, hurtful gums, etc..
Today the Vet gave me some major news about Marty’s ordeal before his rescue.
MARTY has been SHOT at least 3 times in his legs! He had THIRTEEN teeth removed & 3 of those were major extractions (broken & painful canines!), he has a left ankle that has been injured, calcified & immobile. All of this that happened to this cat PLUS chewed off ears (or frost bitten), torn 3rd eyelids in both eyes limiting his sight slightly, scars everywhere (dr Rockwell said she shaved his leg to put in an IV, and it was all scar tissue!) AND he is somehow alive!!!
I have NO idea what im going to do with him, but whatever it is, he will be better off than he was!
Pray for MARTY’S recovery. Very similar to GORDON’s story, Marty is now needs huge-hearted, selfless adopter, like Heather, to take him in!
Aug. 29, 2025 A feral cat has been frequenting the back yard of FURR. My horrible & blurry ADT cameras showed a cat lurking around, but nothing was clear. About 6-8 weeks ago, i set up a trap to try to catch it.
Marty after trapping – Aug 29, 2025
The cat seemed VERY feral & leary of the trap. I tied the trap open & put food near it. As the cat continued to eat the food, I slowly moved the food further & further into the trap.
Interestingly enough, if i moved the food more than an inch at the time, the cat wouldnt show up for a couple of days! Smart kitty….very observant.
Finally, after weeks of putting out food & tuna EVERY night, i finally set the trap to go off & i got him!
Thank goodness! This kitty was a MESS!
It turns out that this was one of 2 feral cats a lady had fed for years. She lived down the road from FURR, but left & moved back to Maryland leaving the 2 cats alone. I found out that it wasn’t because she didnt care about them. She couldn’t catch them! She had several rescue groups all attempt to catch the 2 cats, but no luck.
Well, I now have “Marty” in my care.

She was violated at an early age, but successfully raised 4 kittens so now she needs to rest and relax!
When FURR trapped her as a homeless cat and took her to spay/neuter clinic, we were told she was nursing kittens! So I put a tracking collar on her released her and sure enough she went straight back to her NEW born kittens inside of an abandoned boat!
