What I haven’t mentioned yet was our biggest loss of all. Helene took our precious shop kitty Cali. I waded through the water looking for her after the flooding, but the water for too high and she didn’t survive. She came to us just a couple days before Christmas in 2022 when her owner was evicted from a nearby apartment. I promised him I would take care of her. I planned to give her a warm place to stay until I could find her a home, but she quickly became the queen of Fetch. All of the staff took care of her and loved her, we belonged to her collectively. A little known secret about Fetch is that while our main focus is dog grooming, we always had a stash of rescue cats and kittens in our care. If you ever came back to use our restroom you may have had a kitten pawing at you or heard some meows coming from our cat condos in the back of the salon. I’ll be sharing some pictures of the kitties that have called Fetch their temporary home over the years in the stories as well as a fundraiser for to honor our Cali baby. (Even though she wasn’t always pleased with sharing her home with them 😹) give those pups and kitties hugs and kisses from us ❤️
