🍁 "One, two buckle my shoe. Three, four shut the door. Five, six pick up STIX!" 🍁 STIX (Nursery rhyme)

STIX has been at CCHS 7 months.

STIX is a 1 1/2 year old domestic short hair Tabby taken in on 5/15/24. She was dumped out the window of an SUV in a box with another female and 2 kittens. Considering what she'd been through, Stix was understandably resistant to our attention. Hissy and defensive, we let her be. Approaching her calmly, sometimes even sneaking up to reach your hand into her cubby to pet her used to be the best way to interact with her. Almost 3 months later and Stix is revealing her personality. She LOVES being petted and is a great greeter who'll rub around your ankles. Who knew this girl would end up having a dominant affinity for people! She can be persnickety with other cats, especially if they're intruding in her space in the presence of people! These living beings are so vibrant and varied, seldom failing to surprise us with their depth of character. If Stix likes you, Stix will come up to you, demand your attention, follow you around and even fend off other cats vying for your attention. As of 7/6/24, we have at lest 3 of these dominant personalities in our free roam! This gentle lady with a fiery spirit is beginning to reveal her full, beautiful essence. After more than a month in the free roam cattery, Stix had to be returned to private quarters. Seems she just can't stand some cats and will fare best as an only cat. Since being returned to a kennel, she's reverted to hissing when one tries to pet her or pick her up. It's just cat-itude and if you ignore her hissing and begin petting her, Stix almost immediately changes her tune and accepts your affection. Because Stix was beginning to decline in her kennel, we moved her back into the free roam again. While Stix is grouchy with the other cats and kittens, she is doing better. Hoping she connects with an adopter soon so Stix can begin living a happy cat life. Her adoption fee is $70 and helps cover the cost of her spay, vaccinations, worming, monthly flea and heart worm preventive, FIV/FeLV tests, microchip and care while at CCHS.

Baby Bear took a field trip to Exceptional Living Center, where he was the perfect Valentine. He walked up to each person so they could pet him, then sat to receive a treat. Baby Bear was so well behaved! He loved the car ride there and was interested in everything. Don't miss out on this heart throb!

Scarlett

UPDATE: SCARLETT has been ADOPTED! As many of you know, Scarlett was taken in on 11/26/23 after being reported as a dog hit by a car, left in the cold rain on the side of the road. The impact broke her pelvis and both her femurs, but not her spirit. On 12/7/23, Dr. Royer performed surgery, placing a pin in each femur. The left femur was more damaged and she had to return the following week have it adjusted. A special thank you to Royer Veterinary Services for doing Scarlett’s surgery and Heritage Animal Hospital for caring for Scarlett immediately following her accident. Both clinic’s staff has shown Scarlett so much love and care. On 1/13/24, a foster home was found and they decided to adopt her. Yesterday, they returned to CCHS with Scarlett to complete her adoption paperwork and to let us see how much she's improved. We can’t thank everyone enough for going out of their way to help this little girl. From concerned citizens, to veterinarians, vet staff, shelter volunteers and employees, and other animal rescue workers. Donating, spreading the word, brainstorming ideas, sharing knowledge, transporting, and giving care to Miss Scarlett. It is truly heartwarming to see so many people come together to help one very special dog. And we're excited as Scarlett continues her journey in a home with a loving family.

UPDATE ON SCARLETT

Scarlett got discharged from the vet today and is doing great! She has many weeks of recovery ahead of her, but the vet is very please with how she is doing so far. Huge thank you to Royer Veterinary Services for doing Scarlett’s surgery and Heritage Animal Hospital for caring for Scarlett immediately following her accident. Both clinic’s staff has shown Scarlett so much love and care. We are looking for a quiet foster home for Scarlett to recover in. She needs lots of rest and shouldn’t be around other dogs right now. Please fill out our foster application on our website if you are interested. https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=zr1647&method=online_form_html&formid=43

The vet told us that yesterday to pooped outside and put a little weight on each back leg for a few seconds! Thank you so much to everyone who has donated for this precious girl so far! We can not express our gratitude!!

🍁 DOUBLE the LOVE with Little Bit & Micky D 🍁 We just barely caught on video Little Bit grooming Micky D. When we did, it was a significant sunshiny moment to conclude the day, especially since the first day we put them together, they didn't seem to be connecting. Micky D readily welcomed Little Bit to his condo, but she was less than thrilled and isolated herself. Fortunately, they've become best buds and while they don't have to be adopted together, we'd love it if they were. Besides being very affectionate toward people and each other, Little Bit and Micky D also share something else in common: they're both FIV positive. FIV is Feline Immunodeficiency Virus. FIV+ cats do NOT have a higher incidence of illness and live, long happy lives just as non-FIV+ cats. FIV cannot be transmitted to dogs or humans and is passed from cat to cat mainly through deep penetrating, blood drawing bite wounds, the kind of bites that usually occur outdoors during aggressive fights and territorial disputes. We would LOVE to get these two adopted together because they are so sweetly compatible. Both adore being loved, by each other and people, and can be fairly demanding for attention. They're personalities are so endearing. Little Bit is 1 1/2 and Micky D is 5 1/2 and has really packed on the pounds since arriving. You've got to meet them! They must be indoor ONLY kitties and we recommend they're adopted into a home without other cats. *Mickey D prefers a home without dogs.
