Update: Transportation goal met! A huge thanks to all who donated!

We have some amazing news! After three years of being in the rescue, Marshmallow has found his forever home!

Marshmallow came to us from Orangeburg County Animal Control and Shelter in 2021 after being found in a parking lot. He was sick and injured with a broken jaw. After some wonderful vet care, his jaw healed and he finally recovered. However, Marshmallow has always been shy and was overlooked for adoption.

We recently received a grant from Mission Meow, and they learned about Marshmallow and wanted to help him find a home. Through their posts, a wonderful person in Virginia saw Marshmallow’s story and wanted to make him a part of her family.

Marshmallow is traveling this weekend to his new home, and we need a little help to cover his transport. Can you help us raise $175 to help Marshmallow get to his forever home?

We are thrilled to be the recipient of this wonderful grant and cannot wait to begin working on our project! Thank you so much, Mission Meow!

⭐️⭐️WE DID IT!!!!⭐️⭐️

Mission Meow has raised $14,500 during the month of July for to have their very own clinic. FLOAP is currently using the building next to their shelter as a space
for cats, in their TNR program, to recover after spay/neuter surgery before being released. This building was recently painted and fitted with a new roof and windows.

With the grant of $14,500 they will be able to fulfill their dream of a much needed clinic to offer vaccines, tests and medical support for cats in their care.

For The Love Of A Paw grant:

- New updated electric
- Plumbing
- Incubator
- Oxygen for incubator
- Nebulizers
- Shelving units
- SNAP Tests
- Vaccines
- Stethoscope
- Exam tables
- Cages
- Cubbies

Mission Meow is excited to share a donor has offered to pay for all new waterproof laminate flooring and FLOAP has secured a volunteer for free installation saving them $5356!

We cannot wait to see the transformation!

All of us at Mission Meow are proud to support For The Love Of A Paw and the inspiring work they do. A clinic like this is truly a game changer for their organization.

**Happy Ending, Owner Found** FOUND CAT on Cleveland street heading out towards fire dept. Sweet kitty came up to a persons house. Looks healthy w/a collar but no microchip. Please contact us if yours!

Yes!

Feline Fact Friday - Do you know the best ways to help with the cat over population problem?

1. Assisting the public with their owned pets by making sure pets are spayed/neutered.
2. Trap/Neuter/Return of unowned cats.

These two things MUST be done if we are ever to be able to have enough homes for the cats that fall outside of the bottom two spaces on the pyramid.

Please support and advocate for low-cost spay and neuter for owned & unowned cats in your community.
