šŸ¾ Hello ZEUS!

What a remarkable story ā€” 21.5 years old and still charming everyone at ICAN with kisses, cuddles, and kitten-like jumps.
From arriving at ICAN as a frail 19-year-old with his brothers to thriving in his foster home with Elliot, Zeus truly embodies resilience and love. His daily 4:30am wake-up calls show heā€™s still full of spirit, and itā€™s heartwarming to know he continues to brighten the lives of volunteers and visitors alike.

āœØ ICANā€™s commitment to caring for cats of all ages and conditions ā€” from newborn kittens to centenarian seniors like Zeus ā€” is inspiring. The fact that heā€™s holding steady at 6.1 lbs, living joyfully despite renal failure, and spreading happiness every day is a testament both to his incredible will and the compassion of the ICAN community.

Zeus isnā€™t just the oldest cat at ICAN ā€” heā€™s living proof of what love, care, and dedication can do. Hereā€™s to many more cuddles, kisses, and meows from this ahhh-dorable legend šŸ±šŸ’›.

ADOPTED TOGETHER! * Silas * Salem * Gilroy *
Three boys came together at ICAN for another chance at life.
Gilroy was one of nine kittens rescued from a campground this past summer. He was the biggest of the litterā€”and also the most terrified. He would hide, run, bite, and claw, doing everything he could to protect himself. But one day, something changed. He realized he was finally safeā€¦ and from that moment forward, he loved. Gilroy began to seek out attention, pets, and playtimeā€”soaking up every bit of affection he had once been too scared to accept.
Silas and Salem arrived together with several other cats, grateful for the clean, safe environment ICAN provides. Soon, the three boys formed a special bond. They played together, ate together, cuddled togetherā€”they became brothers in every way that mattered.
And now, they get to stay brothers forever. All three were adopted into a wonderful, loving home where they will be cherished, spoiled, and given the beautiful life they deserve. Stories like theirs remind us why we do what we do. Thank you for supporting ICANā€”your kindness means the world to us, and to every cat and kitten who passes through our doors.
It truly takes an army of volunteers, members, and compassionate people who believe in our mission to help every animal in our care, no matter their needs.
ICAN is proud to operate as a non-profit, no-kill, no-cage facility, now heading into our 20th year of serving the Columbia Valley. THANK YOU for your ongoing support and your devotion to the animals of our community.
Together, we save one life at a timeā€”and together, weā€™ve already made a difference for over 2,000 animals.

OLIVE (our blind kitten) UPDATE...
Do you remember the sweet 8-week-old kitten that arrived at ICAN back in April, who was blind and ICAN was her 3rd home?
Olive went into foster care, and we took in two little kittens (Lysandra & Aelin) to be friends with her and teach her things. Our plan worked well as Olive gained confidence and grew into a very playful and loving little girl. We fundraised for her surgery, and with the community's help, we raised the money for her orbital exenteration surgery.
Olive was adopted before her surgery and she fit in beautifully with her new family! She walked around her new home for 6 hours, took a nap and then walked around like she had lived there her whole life. She has a sister named Grace, a beautiful Calico. They play hard and get along very well.
Last week, Olive, at the age of 9 months, had her surgery at Invermere Veterinary Hospital to surgically remove the entire contents of both eye sockets, including the single miniature left eyeball, surrounding muscles, fat, and other adjacent structures and her eyelids were sewn shut. Olive is healing well and wants to play with her sister!
This surgery was required because Olive was born without eyeballs; she only had developed eye sockets, which were always infected and required daily cleaning.
It truly takes an army of volunteers, supportive members, and people who support our cause in helping every animal in our care regardless of their needs.
ICAN is proudly operating as a non-profit, no-kill, no-cage facility and we are going into our 20th operating year in the Columbia Valley. THANK YOU for your continued support and devotion to the animals of the Columbia Valley. Together, we save one life at a time, and that has made a difference to over 2,000 animals!!
