A short film to share

Help us save the next ones

We lost nine in the Palos Fire. Sparkles, Andrew, Mister Sister, Tres, Nico, Bean, Sir Meows A Lot, Jumanji, and Silver Collosso. Grown cats. Gems. Overlooked because they weren’t kittens.

This short film is the very best pictures of each of them, set to the last part of the song — imagining they’ve come back. After Sparkles’ story are Sparkles, Andrew, Mister Sister, and Tres — the four brothers the rescue saved from euthanasia.

We’re working to form a 501(c)(3) so we can rescue animals like these — adult cats who still have so much love to give. We need resources to file, to foster, and to keep the next ones from dying waiting for someone to choose them.

• Legal & filing

  An attorney or CPA who can help us form a 501(c)(3) so we can legally rescue, foster, and place animals.

• Seed funding

  Filing fees, first vet bills, and food for adult cats who are already waiting — the ones people walk past for kittens.

• Fosters & hands

  Homes and people who will take grown cats, not just kittens. These nine proved how much love was waiting.

When you post to TikTok, add The Last Day on Earth by Kate Miller-Heidke and start at the last chorus — “you’ve come back to me.” The clip is about two minutes.

The full memorial — every photo, every story — stays on the home page. This page is only the short film, so sharing it never overwrites that.
