Got to spend some time with some of the most adorable kittens ever. Surely, we have room for one more? Two? Three maybe? These 2 and the ones in the replies are available through LC3.

Happy to share the latest work from the lab @crick.ac.uk. Outstanding work from Di Chen and Tony Fearns showing the link between Mtb membrane damage, calcium leakage and ATG8/LC3 lipidation in macrophages. Congratulations Di and Tony!

Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome Ca2+ leakage triggers multimembrane ATG8/LC3 lipidation to restrict damage in human macrophages
Ca2+ leakage triggers LC3 lipidation on multimembrane as Mtb phagosome damage response, independent of autophagy.

Missy loved LC3 as they gave her several of her sisters. In addition to sponsoring adoptions, momma is working on a way to continue to honor Missy through helping other cats with medical issues to afford care and to help homeless cats to find their forever families. #MissyMagic

From my favorite LC3: Meet Sunny!

This sweet boy came from a colony & desperately needed eye surgery. While recovering, we discovered he is a sweetheart! We would love to find him a forever home! He is good with cats, indifferent to dogs.

Our ginger boys George and Jameson came from LC3. They are an extraordinary organization.

At 16, our sweet Elsie (RIP) found herself homeless after her person passed away. LC3 scooped her up and she spent her last 2 1/2 years here with us being loved and spoiled. We are forever grateful to LC3 for bringing her to us.

If you'd like to honor Missy in a small way please donate to your favorite animal rescue. Missy's momma works with Loudoun Community Cat Coalition and 4 of her siblings came from them. I'm sure they'd be grateful for any donations. www.loudouncommunitycats.org/donate

Absolutely over the moon at your generosity. Generally, LC3 takes 25-30 cats per week for TNR. They are ENTIRELY donation funded and all “staff” are volunteers. Your donations help them to continue their amazing work and feed some very needy kitties. Big hugs to all who donated. Xox

Long time supporters of ours had to say goodbye to their sweet Missy who lost her fight w/cancer at just 11. She had a strong internet presence & brought love & light to many.

Missy's family has generously sponsored LC3 adoption fees during the rest of Sept.
