De-clawed cat needing a home!

As always, Laps and Naps Home for Senior Cats is willing to support a cat that many would not help since they may be challenging to get adopted. They always do everything they can to get these special-needs cats veterinary care to address their medical and emotional needs, so we expect this little lady could eventually be a fantastic addition to someone’s home.

Alice’s story does highlight why the Cat Clinic of Asheville and most veterinarians no longer perform declaw surgeries. It is an unnecessary painful procedure that often leads to behavioral issues for the cat (biting and litter box issues are common in declawed cats 😿). For more information about declawing, we recommend looking up The Paw Project.

But there are so many things we can do to help cats like Alice that just need a little help getting back in that litter box. So, if you think you would be interested in helping this precious little lady, please contact Laps and Naps!

🆘▶️ ALICE is in need of a new foster home ASAP! She is DECLAWED and was rehomed because of pooping outside the box, but she is clearly not happy in her foster home😿. Things started out okay but something in the environment has triggered her and she has started hiding and not eating🙀. She was at the vet last week when she was "okay" and will be going back for another evaluation.

Alice was abandoned in a mobile home and another rescue adopted her out. She lasted in her adoptive home for 8 months. We are trying to find the right foster for Alice where she will be comfortable while we work to get to the bottom of her issues.

If you can take this complicated girl and have not yet fostered for us, please complete an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/NAPS/Cat. We will pay for medical expenses and a vet behaviorist evaluation while she is being fostered. PLEASE SHARE TO HELP ALICE🙏🏻◀️🆘

(Don’t worry - no cats were actually harmed by excessive cuddling - it may not look like it here, but little Sam craves attention - it’s never enough for him 😻).

If you have a senior cat, the AAFP recommends a checkup every six months to discuss common age-related changes your cat may experience. Some changes may include shifting behavior or sleeping patterns, increased ‘talking’ or meowing, and pain related to movement when jumping or using the stairs. Learn more at https://bit.ly/49b7o1X.

Life’s little obstacles are so much easier with a good friend by your side.

Sweet Marty brought his hedgehog friend along when he had a procedure recently. Having his friend nearby, and his snuggly blanket with familiar smells from home, made him feel much more comfortable as he recovered.

Cat matted? This can be a common Springtime issue for our feline patients. You may need help!

Please never use scissors to try to trim your cat’s mats - we often see lacerations resulting from humans trying to help with matted coats!

Instead use clippers specifically designed for use on cats or consider scheduling an appointment with our Fear Free Groomer.

For more helpful info, see our website.

Today is World Stray Animals Day, a time to show love, attention, and compassion to less fortunate animals. Prevention is key to reducing the number of stray animals. You can help by having your cat spayed or neutered, and fitted with a microchip.

What are the little everyday things that you do to respect your cat?
Small things like always setting them down gently, allowing them to rest/sleep in peace, and allowing them to come to you when they want attention can make a big difference in your relationship with your cat.
A respected cat is a happy, content, and friendlier cat.

Our deepest condolences to Pam Lookabill and the FurEver Friends family. Glynn was a pillar of our local cat rescue community and through his and Pam’s tireless efforts, so many of our patients found their furever homes.

Thank you and rest well.

March is Pet Poison Prevention Month. Innate curiosity and dedication to cleanliness could lead to trouble should your cat come into contact with a poisonous substance. Common items that can be toxic to your cat if ingested include human or veterinary drugs, products containing permethrin (an insecticide), plus poisonous plants such as lilies, insecticides, and household cleaners.

If you think your cat has come into contact with any of these items, contact your veterinarian or Poison Control (1-800-222-1222) right away. Learn more at https://bit.ly/49nH9Xd.
