Immediately started crying at "I see your eyes". I'm so proud to be a monthly supporter of Flatbush Cats. You all do hard and amazing work.

This stuff is heartbreaking. This is why TNR is so important: preventing kittens from being born into a world of suffering (that they might not even survive in without human support)

Tough to watch, and important to watch. Every cat deserves to be at the centre of someone’s world, as mine is to me 💕

Thanks for not looking away. Please join us as a monthly supporter to help make this lifesaving work possible: www.flatbushcats.org/donate

I have found kittens like these many times. In the last year I have spayed/neutered many cats out of pocket. I have been forced to moveb4 times because neighbors complain. Bless you for doing these vital works. I know there are not enough people that are aware.

7:40 You notice the kitten's hand stretch out and the woman sort of held it with her ring finger, as if holding a loved one's hand for support. It probably wasn't intentional but I literally burst into tears. They're just babies, for God's sake. I'm so grateful you're helping, but I can't help but think of all those still out there.

no cat should go through anything like this :C you guys are truly the best

Can we call the spicy nugget Hero? As he or she saved four beautiful babies lives leading you into the basement. What you're doing is amazing. These babies will have a happy life away from the torment of the street life. I do wish no cat or dog would have to suffer that fate. If I had the money I would donate and I would start my own here in my area.

Thank you Flatbush Cats.

Thanks!

Remember folks - if you cant support this channel you CAN still support your local shelter or humane society. Volunteer. Time spent sitting with lonely pets who are waiting for a new home can bring joy to you... and to a critter who's lost the only home they knew.

The most heartbreaking thing in this video was that person passing by that sick kitten in the street like it was invisible..leaving him there to die slowly..💔 Thank you Flatbush Cats for your outstanding work..💙🙏💙 I've been doing TNR/fostering and volunteering for more than twenty years,i know too well the importance of this work..

This is so devastating, respect to all volunteers for their endless work.

Omg the people just walking by that sick kitten at the end broke my heart 💔

Seeing stories like this makes you wonder just how many poor kittens are dumped in areas where there is no hope of finding help just to suffer and die. One f my sweetest cats was a dumped former pet that had no idea how to find food. When he stumbled up onto my front porch trying to get to the food I used to leave out for the neighbor's cat (they've moved away now) he was nothing but a skeleton with fur. My vet was shocked that his internal organs were all still functioning. Now he's a big, fat, fluffy, solid black purring machine that loves pets and cuddles. His favorite "toy" is another dumped cat that had one kitten and both now live indoors with me. These two have become almost inseparable. Shortly after I managed to get her inside with her baby and they had adjusted to being indoor pets, somebody dumped another pregnant mother off and although one didn't survive the other two did and the three of them sure keep this house a noisy but happy place. Strangely, the kittens, now full grown cats, are at least twice the size of their mother but she doesn't take any nonsense from them. Mine were the lucky ones. How many are never rescued? Sadly, any rescue groups that try to function locally have to deal with the harassment and STUPID obstacles being put in their way by the local greedy, money mad so-called "Humane Society" that feels like ALL donations of money and support belongs to them alone so the rescues all have to stay low key in order to survive and function.

This video made me cry. I get so angry when I see people breed their animals for profit when there are so many animals out there that currently need homes. Thank you for the great work you do

I have done TNR work on my own for about 10 years. The problem I had was the cost of spay and neuter. A male cat was costing upwards of $150. Most people can't afford that price. I took my cat to the vet the other day for his 3 year rabies shot and it cost $140. That is ridiculous! If the prices would come down, more people could afford to get their pets fixed and vetted. Irresponsible pet owners and high costs are problems in the USA. Thank you for all you do! Love from Texas

Thanks.

Keep doing the good work man, teared up at the "eyes part".

First time I syringe fed a kitten I didn't realise I was overdoing it until some of the liquidised food shot out his nostril. Thankfully no harm seemed to be done as that boy lived to be almost twenty years old. Lesson learned - take it really, really slowly.

The deep sighs of the carers say it all. Bless them.

"You're not trash." Heart breaking but inspiring. TNR is so vital, thank you. 😊 I've seen parts of this before but it was good to see more of the care that came after the rescue. It'd be good to have a 'this is them now' bit, at the end. I couldn't tell who was who at the end.

I can't thank you enough for doing what you do, and helping these poor sweet souls

Glad I looked at the comments first. Not up for watching this right now, but thanks for your work.

So important what you guys are doing ...

That was tough to watch. Thank You for all the hard work and countless hours.

i'm a grizzled old Vietnam Vet, and seeing the condition of those kittens almost brought me to tears! I'm a doner to your great organization and an X-Brooklyn resident who graduated from Erasmus Hall High School so I know the neighborhood. It's a tough environment for man & beast and not a forgiving one. I thank you for your relentless work in helping as many of these poor cretures as you can. I wish I could give you more!

Heartbreaking to see baby kittens in such dire condition. I remember the kitten on the sidewalk with puss coming out of its eye and if I remember correctly you saved that precious kitten. You are amazing. ❤️

I broke down a cried like a baby when that kitten looked up at her through its newly un-crusted eyes. I wish I had more money to donate. Someday heee soon.

The lucky ones! I'm a passionate supporter of TNR. I've helped on many in my area and would love to be able to accompany on some more next time I'm in the flatbush area. More hands is a blessing that is much needed and I wish more people had the big hearts as you do. Breaks my heart seeing that clip often of the cat with the horrible eye and how it's just ignored and walked right past. I'm so happy you were able to help that lucky one as well. 😻💞

Godbless you for this lifesaving work.

It’s so hard to see such young, sick animals in deplorable surroundings. Don’t the property owners know what’s happening in their buildings? The work you all do is so important and much needed. Thank you!

I'm proud to be a monthly supporter!

It's not just Brooklyn. I live in Canada and it is just as bad. Thank you for all you do.

I do TNR at my local colony here in Korea. It's not cheap, but one cat at a time is my motto. I also get them a round of antibiotics.

Kochane Maleństwa. Trzymajcie się, ściskam Was mocno.❤🥰

The information here and specific advice on how to care for these guys is amazing! Not just "bring them inside and feed them friskies pate, then kick them outside when they pee in a corner"...Great effort to you all, maybe it will payoff and enable others to give similar care in other places, that dont have the benefit of outreach like yours. So glad I donate, you guys are the best.

Thank you for the hard work you do. My cat was a spicy street kitten rescued at about 4 months old, she spent over a year in foster care before she came to her to forever home and she has blossomed into the most beautiful loving cat to those of us that she trusts. I hope these kittens and the spicy nugget find their forever homes too

Danke! Für euren Einsatz dieser hilflosen Tiere. Schön dass es euch gibt. 🙏

this one made me cry. these poor sweet little beans. i hope they're all okay

Absolutely selfless work...... Spicy nugget hero, as well as Flatbush Cats 🐈. 😭😭

This was tough to watch. The key thing is the message of hope and seeing the little ones start to bounce back.

My heart melted when you said dspicy nugget! I'd call that one buffalo sauce

Your videos are always so difficult to watch. Early 2018 I adopted 2 siblings from Athens, Greece who were found in a similar situation to this one. A sweet girl named Nana and her affectionate brother Feliks. They came to live with me in the Netherlands through an adoption agency that takes care of a tnr program, and brings streetcats and dogs to live with people in countries that don’t have a stray animal problem. Unfortunately, exactly a year ago this month, my sweetest girl Nana suddenly became very sick, and despite all of mine and the efforts of the vet over the course of a few weeks, I still lost her. When an animal you love is suffering, you want to do everything you can to get them better. For me the round the clock feeding of small amounts, giving her her meds, driving her to her vet appointments (in fact, using a taxi because my stupid car had conveniently decided that this was the best time to definitively stop working), those were very stressful, but nothing compared to knowing deep down that she wouldn’t make it. I really admire the volunteers that work with these sick kittens, because that feeling of despair is one of the worst feelings out there. And I think it’s inevitable to not get at least a little attached to any animal you care for. (Sorry for the essay) TLDR: I have mad respect for volunteers who care for those that need it the most.

What a powerful video, I'm getting my CC ready for a donation.

Heartbreaking. I foster & tnr here on long Island NY. I see the difference we can make 💖

They are all beautiful and gorgeous kittens.

God bless Flatbush Cats and all the precious fur babies. ❤️❤️😘😘😘🙏🙏🙏

just donated to you guys. i'm not in a position where i can afford a monthly donation, but i wanted to help anyway. bless your hearts for working with and saving these cats/kittens who are left with no other hope

Once I'm done with uni and secure a job I'm going to start donating to you guys. I live in a country where there aren't a lot of stray animals, but it clearly still is the case in lots of other places and it's horrible to see. Keep up the good work!

My god, the poor babies. Bless you all for your hard work in rescuing them.

Very difficult viewing, but imagine the difficulty of being that little kitty suffering through this ..TU Flatbush for all you do. 💖

This is heartbreaking. Thank you for all you’re doing ❤️

Thank you.

It's heartbreaking but reality. Praying all the kittens survived.

These videos always make me cry! I am so glad you guys exist and spread awareness.

This channel inspired me to start volunteering at a local rescue. Thank you for all that you do!

Thank you for saving these precious kittens.

Bless you for helping these sweet babies. My wish is to have all homeless animals off the street. ♥️

Your videos often make me cry. I don't think I would ever have the heart to do this kind of work, so thank you from the bottom of my heart for saving so many cats.

These people are incredible... they are really super heroes... I am a monthly supporter to flatbush cats because of the incredible work they are doing in this part of the country...I hope in the near future I will be able to contribute more, because it's organizations like this at the grassroots level that are the key to changing the situation. I send continued prayers and blessings to all these folks to and all the precious fur babies...my hope is I will see in my lifetime an end to this darkness. ❤

Thank you for having the courage to show how hard, and yet how rewarding animal rescue work is. It is not for the faint of heart! Flatbush Cats gets it! Blessings to all

👍 TRULY ONE OF THE BEST INFORMATIVE VIDEOS ON RESCUING ANY ANIMAL..IT REALLY IS HEARTBREAKING..BUT WHAT A LIFE CHANGING WELL THOUGHT OUT VIDEO.....THANK YOU SIR...

Heartbreaking to see this kitties suffering… but it’s everywhere, he in Spain we have so many street cats, it’s just never ending. It’s really hart to break the cycle.

Thank you so much and God bless you and all for helping this poor beutiful babys😭😢💔🙏🙏

Much love from the Netherlands

Thank you for helping them!❤️

The lucky ones as you always point out. So many more yet to save. The first time I saw a few of your videos I saw how you emphasized on it and now when I see a new video I always pray for the ones first that are still waiting to be rescued clinging on to life. May god give them the strength to survive longer till someone like you will hopefully reach them.

this one got more tears out of me than usual, probably because my own cat is sleeping right behind my keyboard as I watched. your work is amazing and I cannot wait to be at a point in my life where I can support it officially

Thank you for your wonderful, if difficult work with unwanted, abused, and abandoned cats and kittens!

I don't know how they survive until someone comes along. What they eat. Thank you and your team for making the effort, getting in there, and saving their lives! I love your videos. Turns out their little scout was in the best shape of all, and was looking for a kind person to help his sick siblings! Scout would be a great name for him. Or Hercules. Love them all. Thank you for all your edification of the masses. This one did make me cry... I hate that this continues. Animals, whether pets or ferals, deserve to live a happy, healthy, comfortable life. Thank you to all you fosters, rescuers, and TNR folks who save the world one cat at a time! ❤️🙏🍀🐾🐾❤️

Oh gosh the sheer number of times one of your vids has brought me to tears. It is such hard work to rescue any little creature that’s been neglected, but as you said, you can see the reward in front of you. Thank you for what you do and thank you for letting us look in on the process!

Wow all you guys do for those sick, week, poor, motherless kittens. Not cops, not fireman, or any 1st responders. The HEROs are you guys. 👏

Glad to see you are still at it. I haven't seen any new videos in a while. Bless you for all you do for the spicy and crusty nuggets.

Thank you for helping these sweet little babies!

All those sighs and deep breaths while the rescuers work.... Very heavy! Thank you for what you do! 🙏💖

I will never understand a person walking right by a sick creature and doing nothing. Never. Thank you for your continued work and especially education. 💜💜💜

Very eye opening. Very heartbreaking.

Dziękujemy.

Thank you for all you do. You are the light of the Earth. ❤

For the algorithm and also to say TNR is essential for a better future

I'm grateful for spicy nugget & for you doing this work. Thank you so much.

Slow, devoted, painstaking work for these lucky kittens. I’m so very, very grateful for what you do! 🇨🇦

It may be beside the point but contributes to this horrific situation: Why don't some people respect themselves enough to keep spaces free from garbage and conditions that lead to disease and sickness of animals and themselves? My respect for rescuers is strong and unwavering.

Sweet little ones, excellent job… thanks!😻😻😻

How heart breaking the situation is. Thank you for your work. 💐

God Bless you all. I have donated but will be sure to do so again.

I know that TNR is so desperately needed. Thank you, Flatbush Cats for doing this most important work. Cats are the most loving and sweet little animals. No cat deserves to live on the streets, doomed to a life of suffering and death 😢💔😿🐱🐱🐱🐈💕❤️

I see the adult cats come in like, "We heard that some new babies arrived? That right?" Ready to step up and help. (I can only send my healing vibes for these little ones & thanks for all the Volunteers.)

Thank you all

I can hear the carers breathy relief.just amazing work

Thank you for persisting in that basement until you found the last kitten in that litter & also the beautiful kitten that led you down there in the beginning.

Thank you, so sad !!! 😭😭😭 I actually couldn't watch but listened to the video all the way and learned allot! God bless you for helping His creation!!! ❤❤❤😻😻😻

Every cat deserves better than this

the way they walked past that sick baby, i cant stop crying

These stories are always heartbreaking. It is so wonderful that you have helped so many.

I am subscribed and will like every time in these cases. So needless. Heartbreaking 💔🐾💔 How human beings continually walk by and turn a blind eye to the suffering is beyond me. I judge a person by how they treat animals. Period!

I really pray these precious poor cats will find it's LOVING FOREVER HOME 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Love this channel. Has an Ira Glass vibe. I think the writing behind the stories make the vids so compelling. Well done.

thanks brother❤❤❤
