BLACK CAT SPECIAL:
1/25/25 -1/31/25 .

Black cats, (or mostly black) - $15, cash or check. Bring your own carrier, or add $5 for our carrier.

WE HAVE LOTS!!!
Those of you who are in the know, are aware that black cats are slower to be adopted, but are considered good luck almost everywhere but here in the US! In some parts, single ladies take in black cats to attract their perfect mates! In the UK and most of Europe, a black cat crossing your doorstep is thought to bring prosperity and good luck -- can we normalize all of that here??!!

RANDOM BLACK CAT FACT:
The gene that gives the black cat their fur color may also make them more resistant to disease --- how great is that?!

You may come check out our black cats daily from 9 to 3:30 except Wednesdays and Sundays.

Not all of our black cats have made it to Petfinder yet, but you can learn more about those who have here --
ccactn.petfinder.com.

Meet Little Boy, a darling 5 year old orange kitty currently at Cheatham County Animal Control. Little Boy needs our help to fix his gums and teeth. Poor buddy needs to get all of his teeth extracted and, as you can imagine, it’s a pretty expensive surgery. SCAMP is going to take care of the bill, but we rely on donations and fundraising to help animals like Little Boy when the shelter budget isn’t enough to cover the need. Best news though is that Little Boy is expected to be just fine and will be able to be adopted by someone soon!

One of our volunteers took Cyrus on a field trip. This is what she had to say: Yesterday my sister and I took Cyrus on a hike to Hidden Lake, a walk through Home Depot, and took him shopping for treats at PetSmart 🐶 I think he had a great day! He’s kind of like that friend on vacation who just goes along with the plans and has fun no matter what. We met all kinds of people, kids, and dogs throughout the day. He showed mild interest in meeting humans but mostly just sniffed, allowed a pet or two, and then wanted to move on. His ears would perk up when he saw a dog but he wouldn’t try to approach nor did he bark one time the whole day! When we were at Home Depot I almost forgot he was with us (not really!), he just sits so calmly by your side, never needs redirection, matches your energy. He would be a very easy dog to have as a companion!

With severe weather approaching our area this afternoon, this is a friendly reminder to bring all pets inside if you can!#nashvilleweather #shelterdogs #protectyourpets #severewestheraware

Chippy was a puppy found on the side of the road in Cheatham County. His leg was so badly broken that he needed an amputation. Not to worry because he is already feeling so much better! He will be just fine with three legs! Thanks to our donors, SCAMP had the money to pay for this surgery. Chippy will be available for adoption through Cheatham County Animal Control in Pegram, TN. 615-792-3647. #adoptashelterpet #adoptdontshop #nashville #cheathamcounty #tripod

Our dogs continue to amaze us as we learn more about them. Yesterday in play group, we watched Gibby do something very interesting. He was playing with two other females who were pretty keyed up, and Gibby would intentionally slow down the pace of play by putting himself in the middle and steering the girls apart. He was an expert at keeping the play from escalating, in fact he handled it far better than we mere humans could have done. That’s a special kind of dog who can steer the play dynamic! But of course we already knew that Gibby is a star. He is also kid friendly and just a loving boy who has waited too long. Please come meet Gibby at CCAC. It’s time!
