    like her mommy (Tootsie) her Vet thinks she has Tracheal Collapse.

    My Precious Tootsie is also asking persistent urgent prayers she had an operation on
    Nov. 20th for a Mass Malignant Tumor this is her second operation for the
    same problem she has taken meds also.
    Dec. 4th her stitches were removed.
    Then Feb. 4 she will have X rays hoping there will be no sign of any Mass Malignant
    Tumor in her body and my Tootsie will be free from any serious operation in the future.

    Please pray for my beloved cat Jack who has an inoperable tumour but who also has been given the hope of survival if he can regain his appetite and thirst. He is on antibiotics for an infection and they seem to be helping but he’s still up and down. Please pray that this tumour will leave his body completely and he will quickly begin eating and drinking as he used to and put on weight again.
    In Jesus name,
    Amen

Please pray treatment will drop his Bun numbers to 4 and his creatinine to 45 and show us a minor miracle – that his disease is now stable without fluids or medication, and he can live with us, for another 6 or 7 months of good quality time.

  • Aimee July 17, 2018 at 3:27 pm

    I recently found a stray mother with two babies. I began feeding them. The mother has a bad eye, but is the most sweet, lovable and friendly cat. One kitten has been trapped and gone to a rescue. The second kitten is still around, but has two people who want him. I managed to catch the mother, who I named Gertrude, after Saint Gertrude. I took her to be spayed and vaccinated with the hope of finding her a home. I found out she also needs eye surgery. Despite the financial burden, I am going to have the eye surgery performed when she gets her strength back. However, the problem is I already have 2 cats and can not take in a third. She is resting right now in an empty room, but I desperately need a home for her after her eye surgery (and after she heals from that procedure. She can stay with me until that time). All local shelters and rescues have rejected her saying they are full. She has had a terrible life on the street and deserves a chance at a happy, safe and peaceful life. Please pray that young Gertrude finds a safe home.

  • Pam July 13, 2018 at 11:29 pm

  • Sam Pierce June 7, 2017 at 11:40 am

    I have a 5 year old female, tortiseshell or Torty colored cat. She is feral and has had 3 liters. Just last week I ordered from Amazon a fish net extendable pole to capture her. Leaving dry food out at hight attracted raccoons and one attacked her 1 June 2017 and ripped skin off her right cheek. I had to get her in to care for her wound since flies were trying to lay eggs on her open wound. I did capture her Monday, 5 June and she is inside now. Not sure she will make it with such a large open area. I have been applying castor oil, she stilll eats wet food. I am buying her the best catfood Broth with chicken in a pouch. I am retired and able to be with her 24/7. I will pray the animal prayer to get her healed.

  • Simeon April 29, 2016 at 2:38 pm

    Please pray for me that I will get back my little black and white kitten that I was forced to give to my daughter’s boyfriend and his family. I thought that I was doing the right thing, but I have learned so much about him and his family from them taking him from me. But now I realize that my kitten isn’t being treated right and also that he is very miserable. He keeps trying to run away from them, even if it is into another room and hiding under something. I feel very badly that I allowed him to be out into this situation. I think about him constantly. I have been praying that he will be returned to me, that they will willingly and voluntarily want me to take him back. Please pray for me and my litle kitten that God will help this family become distracted by something else and decide that they do not want him AND that they will return him to me, and not give him to someone else or take him someplace else. Thank you very much! Thank you St. Gertrude!

  • Chris Roeback March 30, 2016 at 11:34 am

    Prayer circle, I’m asking for prayers for my cat who fought with a new feral cat next door. His injuries were severe, but he is not stable and recooperating.

Please prayer for his behavior to return to a gentle and friendly cat. Thank you!!

    Please pray for our cat Rusty. He has been sneezing a lot over the weekend. Took him to vet this morning and she said he appears ok. He had a slight temp but she said heart and lungs sounded fine. Told us to sequester him from the other cats for a few days to make sure he is eating, drinking, urinating and defecating. He is very special to us. We have lost two of our feline friends in the last year and 1/2 and it is so hard. I pray to St. Gertrude and to all willing to bend a knee for Rusty. We love him!

  • Adriana July 21, 2014 at 1:41 am

    Please, prayers needed for the safe return of my semi-feral kitty Ayla Bella. She pushed a window screen from the second floor and jumped to the backyard and now she’s lost.

Please tell him I love him with all my heart, and miss him beyond words. Give him a big hug and let him fall asleep in your arms for me.

    Two of my beloved kitties are sick. Max is my black kitty and Gershwin is my gray tabby. I love them very much. Please ask St. Gertrude to intercede for them. Thank you and God bless you.

  • Shirley March 29, 2013 at 2:34 pm

    Smokey, is Sick and Needs Help Please intercede in this dear cat’s struggle to get well. She’s been at the vet’s for several days and may have to be put down today. She has internal bleeding. Please give her a chance, so many people are for her and her family. Thank you.

    Please pray for our sweet cat Olive. She’s 5 1/2. She hard a hard time breathing Saturday. I took her to emergency vet & they drained 270mls from around her lungs. We couldn’t see heart her on the X-ray it was so white. I took her back to get today, her ECHO was normal, no visible tumors but the fluid was back – 240mls off this time. She didn’t eat yesterday. They think it’s an aggressive cancer. I love her so much. My heart is breaking. I don’t want to say goodbye!

    Dear St. Gertrude, please intercede on my Sugar Kitty’s behalf to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that she may be healed. She is and has always been a blessing in my heart and life, please watch over her and help her be strong through this surgery. In His Holy name I pray for your support.

    I don’t know if this is the right place to post or not, so I apologize in advance if I made a mistake. We have six cats…five females and one male. All are altered and all are indoor cats. About two years ago, Bob (our male cat) started spraying in the house for no reason that we’ve been able to identify. We’ve taken him to three different vets to see if there was something medically wrong with him, but he checks out all right. Nothing has changed in our household. We haven’t moved, gotten any new furniture, done any renovating etc. No one has moved in or out of our home, and there hasn’t been any fighting between the cats at any time. Our cats have all been together with us for several years. We’ve tried all kinds of cleaners (most of them are very expensive) to get the urine smell out because we were told that if he could still smell it, he would re-mark, or maybe some of the females would mark….thankfully he’s the only one spraying. We’ve consulted two different ‘cat whisperers’, thrown out furniture, bedding etc. because we were unable to get the smell out. We have him on ‘calm’ cat food, he wears a Feliway collar, he’s been on anti anxiety medication, and we also have Feliway diffusers throughout the house. I am disabled and so is my husband so we are finding it more and more difficult to clean each and every nook and cranny every day. We are on a fixed income and during the last two years, we’ve spent more money than we can afford just to find something that will stop the spraying. We love him and all of the other cats with all of our hearts, and we’ve given up spending money on ourselves just to be able to have money to try to find something to stop him from spraying. We have tried almost everything imaginable to get him to stop but nothing works. My issue is this, we are considering euthanasia because we are finding it too difficult to keep up the cleaning and money is becoming more and more of an issue. There is not a very good chance that if we give him to the animal shelter that he will be adopted. Firstly, he is nine years old and most people want to adopt a kitten, and if by chance someone does adopt him, we feel that when he starts to mark their home, they will return him to the shelter, or have him put down. He has always been an indoor cat and doesn’t move very well given his size (chubby) and his age and we’re afraid that he will not survive for long outside especially since it is winter and we live on the prairies… As I said at the beginning, I don’t know if this is where I should post this issue, but we’ve exhausted all of our resources and we’re at the point where we don’t see any other solution except euthanasia. It’s not what we want to do, but the last two years have been exhausting trying to keep up with the cleaning, and the money that we’ve spent having to replace furniture and bedding has worn us out. We would appreciate it so very, very much if you would pray that we find a cure/remedy for our Bob-Cat’s spraying so that we can all live together for many more years. Thank you

  • Andrea December 25, 2012 at 7:25 pm

    St. Gertrude … Please welcome our kitten, Bismarck to ‘kitten heaven’. She brought life to our home for the 7 months that she was with us. She was to be our Christmas Kitten this year. She was sadly missed at Christmas, but she is in much better place without pain. Mom and Dad love and miss our little “Biz” !!!

    • paula April 23, 2014 at 10:59 pm

      I’m sorry I just found your post. I will remember Bis. as much as I can. I have lost 2 cats myself and miss them terribly.

  • Flora December 22, 2012 at 2:19 pm

    My 11 year old cat Littleone has been sick now for 2 weeks. He started with losing his voice which progressed to an infection which made him very lethargic and without any energy. I took him to the Vet last week for the third time and she said that everything that can be done has been done and that putting him to sleep was an option. I am not ready to do that. She told me that if I nursed him myself that would give him a better chance and that is exactly what I have been doing. Please pray for my Littleone, he is my heart and soul. He is very special to me because we found each other on 9/11. When he came up to me as a very small kitten and when I saw that he tried to get into the backseat of my car, I knew we were meant to be together. On one of the most darkest days in U.S. history, I find my ray of sunshine. Please pray for his recovery, he deserves a few more years. I am also praying to St. Gertrude for her help and for her to heal him. This Christmas is very sad for me, the only gift I want is to have my Littleone back to normal and health and happy. I have been crying non stop since this started. I am very reaching out to you good people for your prayers for him. Please pray for Littleone, I still need my little soulmate beside me still. Thank you very much and may God bless you all.

    • Flora January 7, 2013 at 9:50 pm

      St. Gertrude please welcome my LittleOne into heaven today. He left my side today and I will miss him very much. He is my heart and my little soulmate. He gave me 11 wonderful years. Mommy will always love you and keep you in my heart until the day I see you again. I love you “Chubby”.

      • Anne March 12, 2013 at 10:36 pm

        I’m sorry for your loss Flora. Sounds like you were blessed with a wonderful cat! They don’t live long enough. My heart breaks for you.

  • Nancy December 14, 2012 at 12:45 am

    Dear St. Gertrude, I desperately pray for my kitty, Newman. He has a virus that may be incurable and he seems to be failing. I pray he can recover & spend many more years with him. We love him. Thank you so much!

  • china rose November 26, 2012 at 3:46 pm

    Yes.. I will pray for you and also for your furry friends. St. Gertrude has always answered my prayers and she has lots of fun was to make your appeals for help. One way is to write her a letter like you would a friendly aunt and ask for exactly what you want or need, quite plainly. I quite this kind of prayer request in my personal, journal but you can even address the letter to her and set it aside if you like. There is a shrine for her in France, in Nevilles where patrons offer her gold mice. For very special requests I have made such a shrine (small version, diorama) and offered her a gold mouse as they do in France. She is the Patron Saint of Cats and accommodations and I honor her as a patron saint who answers prayers. For the cat lovers who have lost their furry friends fear not for cats have nine lives. If they have left one they enter another.

  • Pam November 25, 2012 at 5:47 pm

    Please pray for my feline daughter, Topaz. She has always been a gift from God to me. She is very ill and even vet specialists do not have a specific diagnosis but speculate that it may be cancer. I am praying for a miracle.

  • Doug & Lori November 25, 2012 at 12:27 pm

    St Gertrude, please watch over our Baily Girl, She is a beautiful Calico we both cherish and adore. She has brought peace into out lives for 12 years and now that I battle cancer she has been my rock. We just learned Bailey May have cancer as well and is loosing weight. she is not her self and neither are we. Heartbroken at the options we pray to you for help and the salvation of our precious Bailey.

  • Mary November 23, 2012 at 6:36 pm

    Please pray for our cat, Luna. She is only three years old, and has had a very difficult life. She is now in the hospital, and we can’t figure out exactly what’s wrong with her. We will be thankful for any time we have left with her at home, to make her as happy as we can. God bless you for your prayers.

  • Brenda November 11, 2012 at 11:11 am

    I pray that everyone who has posted here has found some peace and comfort. I inherited my parents’ cats and now every time the tuxedo tom goes out into the night, I am so afraid that he will not return. The same with his half-sister. But they are outdoor cats and my parents let them run. I can’t change them, I know. Please pray for their safety and let them die, when the time comes, peaceably at home.

  • Suzy October 2, 2012 at 9:10 am

    I am new to God and my faith has been shaken a bit by the disappearance of my beloved Kitty. He has been missing 7 days now, and I am overhwhelmed by sadness and loss. Could I request prayer that he return home safely as soon as possible? He has given me more love than any human, and I lost my job only 6 weeks ago, so this is a terribly difficult time. I just want him safe and back in my arms… Thank you.

  • Paula September 9, 2012 at 9:11 pm

    Praying for you as you go through these difficult times with your purr-babies. I was blessed to have my precious Callie Jean for 21 years. But time,whether a lot of or a little, makes no difference in the amount of anguish we feel when our kits become ill or lost. When they leaveus for Heaven, they take a tiny piece of our heart with them. When our day to leave this world comes around, our hearts will by pitted. unrecognizable messes. A badge of honor, of sorts,for all the selflessness and love we gave and received. But I don’t worry about this. Neither should you. A day shall come when all of our furbables will gather together, andmae their way toward us, to bring us home in our Spirit bodies. It’s THEN that they restore these pieces of our heart. It is then that we are at last made whole, as we realize that we shall never be parted again.
    MUCH LOVE.

    • paula April 23, 2014 at 11:03 pm

      Amen!

  • Theresa August 21, 2012 at 2:47 pm

    Please remember my dear cat,Fella,who is gettimng older. Also,Robyn and her four cats,Laura and her cats…Thank you.

    • Paula September 9, 2012 at 9:22 pm

      Theresa, it is never easy to watch our once spunky little ones begin to age…..seems that overnight, they go from fun loving, sparkly eyed, running-jumping-leaping bundles of limitless energy……and all too soon and so very suddenly we notice the changes. The thinning hair around the eyes, the slower more guarded walking, and the illnesses that rear up upon us causing so,many sleepless nights as we care for our babies.

      You and Fella are in my heart and prayers. Robyn, Laura, and all of their kitties as well.

      I believe that our kitties are blessed with an insight that we humans are not worthy of possessing: the knowledge of understanding the meaning of life, the courses it takes, and the reasons why these paths are mapped out. I also believe that they are given a “preview”…..a glimpse into the afterlife. The visions of that Paradise fill them with a measure of peace and comfort amidst all of their discomfort. Their pain is abated in those moments,and they do not mind the transition to Spirit in the least They know they will always be present with you. Just like you cannot see the wind as it ruffles the leaves on the trees does not mean the wind has ceased to exist. It is there, most assuredly, as will our babies be. Try to be brave and strong, just as our kitties are.

    Our cat, Sherman, went missing 2 nights ago and it’s all my fault as I let him out of my site and he took off. We just adopted him from a shelter a mere 6-7 weeks ago and I was just bonding and falling in love with him. No one else seems to care he’s missing but me and it’s breaking my heart in two. I can’t stop crying and praying ~ please help me. I need closure whether it’s to find him or bury him because my life has no meaning right now. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    • Beth March 25, 2013 at 11:49 am

      Praying for the safe and swift return of my cat Kyla, who has been missing from our place for several days. I loved having her around me as I worked outside in my garden, so I am praying to the patroness of cats and gardeners. Thank you for this site and may God bless all here!
