🐶❣️🐱TOUCHING MEMORIAL🐱❣️🐶

The Southwest Coast SPCA would like to thank Wendy Sheppard for sponsoring a kennel* at our shelter for a full year in loving memory of her father Wade McFatridge. A laminated card identifies Kennel #5 as a physical sign of how much he will be missed!

His obituary notes that his five grandchildren were his pride and joy! Stephen, Luke, Rose, Annabelle and Grace are pictured below on the bench that was put in his name.

Mr. McFatridge will be missed by his children, grandchildren, sister and her sons, as well as his extended family and friends.

Our Board of Directors, volunteers and rescued animals want to thank Wendy for her touching gesture and send our deepest condolences to Wade McFatridge’s family and friends.

💗💗💗HOW SWEET IS THIS?💗💗💗

Last week Zoe and Quinn had a Cupcake Stand and made $60 for our rescued animals! When their proud grandmother dropped the money off at our shelter today, she mentioned the promotion ROYALE Kittens / Chatons has running until Aug. 26th. This means ROYALE Kittens / Chatons will match the money Zoe and Quinn raised! 🤯😃

Thank you, Zoe and Quinn, for thinking of our doggos and kitties and raising $120 to help them out! You two totally rock!👏👏👏

🐶❣️🐱TOUCHING MEMORIAL🐱❣️🐶

The Southwest Coast SPCA would like to thank Sandy and Patricia Kalgutkar for sponsoring a room at our shelter for a full year in honour of Barbara Jeanne Mercer! A laminated card identifies the room as a physical sign of how loved she was.

Her obituary describes her as a compassionate Registered Nurse; a loving wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great grandmother and friend; a proud Newfoundlander; a traveler; an artist and an avid gardener.

Although her passion was for Maltese Terriers, she had pet cats when she was young and “loved all the little creatures”. Since our puppies/dogs are placed in foster homes, we hope she is smiling down on the adorable kitties in Cat Room #1, the room that is dedicated to her. Rest assured the donation made in her name will help provide care for all our animals.

Our Board of Directors, volunteers and rescued animals want to thank Sandy and Patricia for their touching gesture and send our deepest condolences to Barbara Jeanne Mercer’s family and friends.

❣️🐶FOSTER HOMES NEEDED FOR PUPPIES/DOGS🐶❣️

You could play a temporary but extremely important role in a rescue dogs life by FOSTERING them! 🐶❤️

❗ Located in the Bay St. George area ❗

Our foster homes help prepare our dogs for their happily ever after through consistent care, walks, training and more! We get a variety of different dogs in our care (but primarily large dogs or puppies) and once approved to foster, we will set you up with one best suited for your home. 😀

PLEASE NOTE: All supplies for foster animals are provided by the Southwest Coast SPCA. This includes food, treats, bedding, crates, veterinarian care and more! All you need to do is supply your home, time and love!

💔MISSING CAT💔

Aug. 10th, 2024

Sage has been missing in the Flat Bay Area for 3 days. She is a friendly cat. If you see her, please call 709-214-3143 immediately. Thank you!

🐶❤️🐱NOT ALL HEROS WEAR CAPES🐱❤️🐶

We are always amazed, inspired and grateful for the variety of ways people show their support for our organization.

One example is the huge amount of laminating Jenna M. does for us free of charge! As an added benefit, she also cuts everything out so it’s ready to be displayed.🤯💗

Shown below are some new laundry signs (which help us keep the laundry separated) and signs which identify the different foods our cats and kittens eat (different for each age group).

These signs are only a small portion of the ones Jenna M. has laminated for us over the years! As always, we appreciate her help, as well as the help of our many volunteers and supporters. We literally couldn’t help abused, abandoned and neglected animals without all of you!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!👏👏👏

‼️CHECK OUT OUR JULY STATS‼️

🐾 Adoptions for July were slower than normal, which is the usual for the busy summer months. We cannot wait to see this slot begin to fill up again once the fall hits! Remember, if you cannot adopt, please SHARE any adoption posts. It can help more than you think! 🙌🏻

🐾 Our intake number has soared for July! Kitten season is ongoing and continuous. 😿 We appreciate the recent cat/kitten food donations more than you know! We also had the pleasure to rescue some dogs from Labrador this month.
Fun fact🤓 Our TNR program helps reduce intake numbers as most of our intakes are vulnerable kittens rescued from outside.

🐾 7 feral cats were part of our TNR (trap, neuter/spay, release) program this month! They were released back to their outdoor "home" with a caretaker who provides food, water and shelter. And now that they are spayed/neutered, there will be no more unwanted kitten litters or fighting/spraying for these lucky few! 👏🏻

🐾 24 cats/dogs were spayed/neutered in July. This means 24 happier, healthier pets ready for their furrever homes (or were part of our 2024 Stephenville SNAP).

As always, thank you for the ongoing support. Let's keep this up and continue saving the animals! ❤️

💗🐱’TRIXIE PICKS HER HUMAN’ ADOPTION🐱💗

Suzanne very carefully read everything we sent her about some kitties we thought would be a good match for her. She looked at the pictures. She sent a family member who lived closer to us to check the kitties out. Suzanne did ALL her homework! 😂

Based on her careful research, Suzanne KNEW which kitty she was going to adopt. Unfortunately, that kitty didn’t get the memo and when they met there was no spark…at all. So Suzanne asked to meet the other cats.

As soon as she walked into Trixie’s room, the kitty came right to her and asked for love!😻 Suzanne’s face lit up and, even though she wisely took some time to spend with Trixie before making a final decision, we all knew it was a done deal! The connection between them was very obvious and we are happy to say it continued after they got home.💗 Suzanne can’t even imagine having adopted another cat and Trixie is a spoiled and happy kitty with a loving forever home!

Congratulations, Suzanne and Trixie! This adoption was meant to be, and we wish you many years of love and cuddles!

❣️HAPPY UPDATE: COPPER HAS A HOME!❣️

🐶❤️IS COPPER THE RIGHT DOGGO FOR YOU?❤️🐶

Hi everyone,

My name is Copper. I am looking for a home to call my own. I am a little Havanese mix around 8 years of age. I am great with kids and cats, even doggies too. I have this great coat that doesn't shed either. I am great in the car, fully house trained too. I'll be doggone if I don't sound like the perfect little boy doggie.

If you would like to adopt me, my adoption fee is just $250, which includes my neuter, flea tick meds, and a vet checkup. Please include lots of details in the application so the folks at the Southwest Coast SPCA can find me a great forever home. Can't wait to meet you.

Love,
Copper

🐱COURTESY POST🐱

Aug. 5th, 2024

Through no fault of their own, Bean and her sister Buttons need a home TOGETHER. Bean and Buttons are both 2 year old females and are spayed.

They need to go to a home with no dogs and they have no experience with children. They are super friendly and loving cats, and need a home where they will get all the love they deserve.

If you are interested in giving these cats a forever home, please call Stephanie at 709-649-1869.

NOTE: These cats are not in the care of the Southwest Coast SPCA. We are only passing along the information the owner gave us in the hopes she can find a forever home for them. If you have any questions, we ask that you call the owner. Thank you.

💗😻’FILLED WITH JOY’ ADOPTION😻💗

Anyone who has been following our page might remember that we had a colony of kitties who were supposed to be in our TNR (Trap/Neuter/Release) program, but ended up too sweet to release back outside.

Anyone who follows our page might also think that the picture below is two of those colony cats! That would be completely understandable because, quite frankly, the six colony cats looked very similar. However, while both kitties were adopted from us, Maddie (L) was adopted a couple years ago, while Harlow (R) was adopted more recently.

Harlow is one of the colony cats and has never lived without having a friendly kitty to cuddle up with. Maddie, while she was with us, also enjoyed cuddling with other cats. However, she had been an only cat for a couple of years and we wondered how she’d feel about getting a little sister.

Alicia has been sending us updates and all the pictures show that Maddie and Harlow quickly became besties. They eat together, sleep together and cuddle with their humans together!🥹🥹🥹

Alicia says she and Josh are so thankful for them both and they bring them so much happiness! Knowing that brings a lot of happiness to our volunteers also.💗

Congratulations, Alicia, Josh, Maddie and Harlow! We wish you all many years of love and cuddles!

Note: Four of the colony cats have been adopted. Georgia and Elvis are still waiting for their forever home.

💜 MEET MAGIC 💜

DOB: April 20, 2023

This beautiful cat came into our care with plans to be returned to a colony as part of our TNR program, hence her unique ear tip. However, Magic happened!✨ She began showing us signs of being sweet and tame, so we wanted to give her a chance to blossom as a housecat.

And blossom she did! ❤️ Magic is one of our most innocent, deserving kitties awaiting her first indoor home. The washer/dryer, mop/broom, people going in/out of the building... It's all new for her. Although Magic is still a shy girl, she is NOT shy for pets and attention! She'll come over to you when you squat down slowly and call her or approach her favorite spot... The cat trees!😀 She loves being scratched around her neck and head... And all down her beautiful fur coat. Her tail is like a feather duster! 😍 Magic also adores wand toys and little mice - those are VERY fun to play with and a great way to bond with her. Her eyes get big and animated like a kitten!😻 Overall, Magic is incredibly gentle, quiet, clean and polite. She is the definiton of a little lady!

Magic came from a colony of cats, so all she's ever known is being with other felines. With this, she looooooves other cats, especially her friend, Elvis. They often bump heads, wrap their tails around each other and purr. Magic absolutely needs another friendly cat in her home to show her the way, bond with her and keep her company. How special would it be if her and Elvis got that chance? 🥹❤️

Magic must be adopted into a home with another friendly cat or adopted with another shelter cat (Elvis). A home without young children or dogs would be necessary. Magic needs an understanding owner that will allow her to adjust to her FIRST home at her own pace.

Magic's adoption fee is only $120😳 and includes her spay, vaccines for the year, FIV/FeLV testing, flea/worm treatment, a 6-week free trial of pet insurance and a health care examination.

🖤 MEET OZZIE 🖤

DOB: October 26, 2023

Are you seeking a cuddly, affectionate, gentle cat? Because you cannot get any friendlier than Ozzie!!!!! This 9 month old love muffin wants a home of his own so badly!

Ozzie was surrendered as a young kitten with his brother, Harry, who had no issue getting adopted quickly. But Ozzie still waits! 🥲 He has been moved around between two different foster homes because we have no space at the shelter for him! This sweet cat has only been at his current foster home for ONE WEEK and look how settled he is! We would love for him to find his new home sooner than later before he gets too comfortable. He has TONS of love to offer you and anyone who will accept him! ❤

Ozzie is very friendly and approachable. If you have arms to hold him and hands to pet him, that's good enough for Ozzie!😉 He is playful, confident and doing very well with other cats, a young child, and even dogs in his current foster home! This boy can do it all!!!!! Please do not sleep on Ozzie!

Ozzie is neutered, vaccinated for the year, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, treated for fleas/worms, has a free 6-week trial of pet insurance and was examined by the vet.

🐱❤️BETHANY & RUTHIE WANT A HOME❤️🐱

What’s not to love about these two sisters-from-another-mother? They are happily bonded and simply adore people! We recently overheard a conversation between them that we want to share with you 😉:

Ruthie: Do you think we’ll get adopted and have a forever home like other cats?

Bethany: Of course we will!

Ruthie: Together?

Bethany: Yes, I overheard some volunteers saying we have to go together now because we’re besties!

Ruthie: That’s good.

Bethany: It certainly is! Plus, we are such a pretty pair of kitties!!

Ruthie: Yeah, our fur colours go together nicely.

Bethany: We’re confident, super cuddly, playful and we’re both just under 1 year old! People like that.

Ruthie: I guess so.

Bethany: Okay, I know you well enough to know something’s bothering you. Cough it up…like a hairball! 😸

Ruthie: Will people not like me because…because…*mumbles

Bethany: Can’t hear you…

Ruthie: Will people not adopt us because I only have one eye? 😿

Bethany: WHAT??? NO WAY! Seriously, you’re worried about THAT?

Ruthie: A little bit…

Bethany: You were born that way and it doesn’t stop you AT ALL! 😹 You can jump and play with the best of the cats, and since you were bottle fed as a teeny kitten, you absolutely LOVE being picked up and cuddled! You are the absolute perfect kitty!

Ruthie: Aw, thanks Bethany!

Bethany: And you KNOW you’re one of the favourite kitties here at the shelter!

Ruthie: I’m so glad we are going to get a forever family together, Bethany. You made me feel so much better! Now get closer so we can cuddle up and have a cat nap! 😸

Bethany: I know you’re happy when you’re making stupid cat jokes. 😜 Yes, let’s have a ‘cat nap’ and dream about our forever home. Do you think we’ll have a mom? A dad? Human sisters or brothers? Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

NOTE: Bethany and Ruthie’s adoption fee is only $150 because they are a bonded pair and have to be adopted together. They are already spayed, yearly vaccinated, flea/worm treated, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, come with a 6-week free trial of pet insurance and have been examined by the vet.

😻😻DOUBLE THE FUN AND CUDDLES TOO?😻😻

Double the fun AND cuddles describes these boys perfectly! Ace and Archer are the dynamic duo you've been searching for! 😼😼❤️

Imagine the most silly and loving cat...then times it by two! You'll never believe how friendly and sweet these young men are. 🥹❤️ They were bottle-fed by our group because they were found within a colony, cold and alone at only days old, and this has attributed to their comfort with being held - especially Ace. He'll snuggle up into your neck and get as close as possible!

Meanwhile, Archer has the most unique piercing orange eyes you'll ever see. They both have tails that NEVER go down, which shows how very confident and happy these kitties are.

At 8 months old, they should be experiencing their first home (together, of course😉), not stuck to grow up at the shelter. Although, they're such well-mannered and patient boys! They're simply happy to be alive, healthy and more than ready to share their big hearts with you!

Because these boys are bonded and so HAVE to be adopted together, their adoption fee is only $150!!! (Yes, you read that right!😸) They are already neutered, yearly vaccinated, flea/worm treated, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, come with a 6-week free trial of pet insurance and have been examined by the vet.
