All too often, when the interests of man and animal are in conflict, man prevails. Animal welfare is a social matter, of which, people need learn to be passionate. The Eau Claire County Humane Association is dedicated to educating the public about the need for humane treatment of all animals and responsible pet ownership. We must rely on donations from our friends and supporters who share our beli

ef that every animal deserves the opportunity to be adopted into a loving home. Because it is difficult to run a shelter based solely on donations, our success depends on you. You CAN make a difference. Your generous support of the Humane Association will help us to feed and care for our local pets until they are adopted into a loving home.

Let's do another this time with Dr. Gooden and Shakespeare!

"To be or not to be. This is the daily struggle of Shakespeare's life. He LOVES attention and he LOVES being indoor basking in the sunshine. However, the indoor life and even attention, become overwhelming very quickly for him."

"Have you ever had one of those moments where you "suddenly snap" but actually there was nothing sudden about it? The music was playing, people were talking, a child was tugging on your pants to get your attention, and hey, that new shirt has a tag thay has just been rubbing on you all day. "Suddenly" one more thing is added in and you lose your cool. It appears that's how Shakespeare currently feels about his living situation. Maybe that's why I love him so much? Having some sensory issues myself, I deeply understand the quick overstimulation."

"Cats that are overstimulated often will have "unpredictable" mouthing/nipping. However, it isn't truly unpredictable, and once you know the particular cat you can easily read him-just like us!"

"Shakespeare has been started on fluoxetine as well to help him adjust to his new life at the shelter and he will be adopted on it to help adjust to his new home life. It may be short term or it may be longer term, time will tell. Staff has been working to provide him extra space and extra enrichment. Shakespeare is a quirky guy; he is going to require a special patient home. I know the right person is out there; we just have to find them!"

Today is a very special shoutout!

Mr. Kitty's Cat Café & Boutique acts as a foster home for ECCHA cats until they can be adopted into loving homes. At any time, they can have 20 cats in their playroom, waiting for someone to come along and fall in love with them over a cup of coffee.

Mr. Kitty's is going on nearly 400 adoptions since opening in April of 2024, all of which have been ECCHA cats! Of course, they did adopt 3 of their own to make sure all new kitties that come in are shown the ropes. If you have not been out to the cafe, swing by and check it out for yourself!

It's Medical Monday! Let's learn about certified sweetheart, Blossom, from Dr. Amber 🌸

"Blossom is an estimated ~5yr old large mix breed who originally came from Texas. Blossom came to us after sustaining an injury a few months prior. X-rays showed no evidence of fracture, so it is suspected she had a nerve injury. After several months of it healing incorrectly, we had no choice but to amputate."

Blossom is learning how to navigate life with 3 legs, and is enjoying her rest and recovery time in foster with a small senior dog. She is very sweet and gentle, and, although down a leg, seems to be so much more comfortable and mobile than she was before surgery. She is the sweetest girl and continues to "blossom."

If you are interested in donating to the care of future patients like Blossom, make a donation to our Specialty Surgery Fund on our website: eccha.org/donate

This is a special segment we are calling ! Let's start with one of our longest residents, Mr. Rubble. Rubble has been at ECCHA for over 4 months and we just don't know why! Let's hear why Rubble is Team Lead Tess's staff favorite.

"He recently spent a weekend out of the shelter with me, and I can tell you he is an excellent dog who's life revolves around a game of fetch or tug-of-war. But, at the end of each day he just wants to snuggle with you in bed. Rubble knows "sit" and is currently matering "shake." He is a definite people-pleaser and is eager to learn new things for his owner."

"No matter what you're up to, Rubble would like to be part of it. Whether you are watching the Sunday Packer game, cutting firewood, or taking a nap, he's there with you. He does well with other dogs large and small, puppy to senior. He loves to play rough, but is also respectful of dogs and their different energy levels. Rubble seems to like the water but has yet to master the art of floating."
