My latest instruments purchase arrived packed in 25 Priority Mail bubble wrap envelopes. This is why some POs keep these behind the desk!

It's true! Fixed cats have thicker fur and rounder bodies. You know you love it.

Let’s get those kitties fixed this month and show them how much we love them! 🩷🐾

Come on, you know you do this every day.

It's National Answer Your Cat's Questions Day!! Does your feline have some unanswered questions? Post them in the comments and adoptable eight year old cat, Dorothy, will spread her wisdom by answering them!

Quality kitten, the best!

Currently, I have three foster cats looking for their forevers. They're great cats, but not the kittens that everyone seems to want. Because adoptions are so entirely dire and kitten season IS HERE ALREADY, I'll consider any possible adoption situation that provides: shelter adequate for our area, regular food and water, veterinary care. See descriptions on photos for details on these cats. They are healthy, up to date on vaccines, fixed, microchipped, and good kitties. No charge for rehoming once I feel sure care will be proper.

HELP!!!

I have a BUNCH of adult cats in the SLV that are in need of homes.

1. Monte Vista: a blind cat with strong hunting instincts who cannot be contained indoors. Problem is she's on a busy road and the kitty chases (the sound of) birds right into the road. This yearling kitty is spayed and UTD. Somewhere with a decent sized catio would be ideal.

2. Monte Vista: a dumped cat that is living outdoors for over a month because the indoor cats will not accept this cat. I do not know age or medical. I would be happy to cover vetting if taking her inside is an option. This cat is sweet and very upset about being excluded from the home and begs to come in CONSTANTLY.

3. South Fork: A friend of mine passed and I inherited her 2 yo F grey tabby, fixed and UTD. Problem is she's EXTREMELY high arousal with other cats and often with people. Lashes out suddenly and will bite hard. She will have to be a barn cat for people with quite thick hides or high pain tolerance. Current plan is to eartip and street her in the spring, back in her old stomping grounds where the people know her and I can sponsor her food and medical. If you have a better option, let me know IMMEDIATELY.

4. South Fork: A previous foster had to move and returned her two lovely foster fails, 1 yo healthy neutered tuxedo males, UTD. Rain is friendly and his brother Mystere is deeply shy. Both are 100% non-violent and very good looking. They'll class up anywhere they live. They're friends and would do best kept together.

5. E. Alamosa: a former co-worker is struggling with a cat she adopted from me. A 1 yo white spayed female, UTD. The cat is persecuted by other cats in the household and is mad-peeing. Likely needs a less intense household, maybe just more space or quiet. We're going to explore some medication to reduce her anxiety.

If anyone is interested in any of these cats, I can email photos and any records I can round up.

Thanks for your consideration, I’m about at my wits end.

Rain and Mystere are still seeking forever homes. Rain is loving, sleek, very clean. Mystere is the same but deeply shy. Both have been updated on vaccines and are fixed.

No fee for these guys, but I will need references and a vet clinic.

These two cuties are coming back to me as a bonded pair. They're about a year old, and one is social, the other only likes other kitties. Can't really blame him, kitties are awesome. If anyone is up for a pair of handsome young tuxies, these two would love to make your house a bit more high falutin and elegant, not to mention mouseless. I'm adopting them as an indoor only pair because that's the only life they know, but I bet they would love a catio too.

Kiki has found his forever home after surgery and recovery with Cat Care Society. I am so grateful for their help with this loving older cat!

Kiki is a big deal and is looking for his forever home.

He's maybe 6 years old (wild guess) and was abandoned on the street by the relatives when his person moved to a nursing home. He's an utterly sweet boy; purring and headbutts within 15 seconds of meeting me. He is overweight and will be getting a higher quality food to help him with that. He'll see a vet to diagnose why he's gone blind and see if there's anything we can do to help him.

Anyone who's had a blind cat can tell you it's not a huge problem unless you have a need to rearrange your furniture on a regular basis. Once he learns where his food, water, and litter are, it's no biggie, unlike Kiki.

For 2025, the kittens must roll! Fix everything you can get your hands on. NEVER adopt out intact. Support your local rescues that take kittens off the streets, especially if you are the one giving them kittens to raise, vet, and adopt (often about $300 per kitten). Transport costs plenty too. Basically, euthanasia is the cheapest option but we don't want to go there.

ANYONE who claims rescues are in it for the money is gonna get stabbed by me. I've met so many people who are breaking their hearts and their piggy banks addressing pet overpopulation, sniping from the bleachers instead of helping out is psycho behavior. Basically, shut up and give your local rescue your money.

Pictured: five kittens handed to me in a parking lot recently. They were orphaned when their mother was inadvertently "removed" without first checking for offspring. They and the implied death of their mother were directly caused by well-meaning people feeding community cats they didn't fix. FIX FIRST!

Kiki has moved to wonderful digs at Cat Care Society, where he'll get some medical checks (they did get the medical records from his appointment with South Fork Veterinary Clinic) and will hopefully soon find his dream home, where he can have the up to 12h/day of lap time that he desires and deserves.

June 21, '22 I adopted out this fetching Cookie to my friend in Del Norte. A few weeks ago, that friend passed away and in the confusion, her cat took off and wouldn't come back inside. I got a call about it two days ago. Yesterday, I brought a trap over and got it set up. Our mutual friend John knew where Cookie was hanging out and got the trap set in the right spot. He secured her pretty much right away. This morning, I went out and got her from John. Cookie is now hiding under the bed in my kitten room, understandably terrified by recent events. I hope with time to adjust and feel safe again, she'll come out and be friends. Then we can begin looking for her forever home.

This sweet old guy is headed to the vet in a week. We're hoping to diagnose the cause of his blindness. What doesn't need diagnosis? Temperament. Total lap honey. Needs a home with a sweet retired person who can sit with him all day!
