It's no longer spooky season, though some of us would love for it to be year round, but that doesn't stop our two spooky named siblings to stop having fun! Grimm and Maleficent are two of our most playful kittens in the shelter! They both have the most adorable meows you'll ever hear come out of such a tiny body! It sounds like grumbling, but they're far from grumpy, unless they're in their kennels, which is just their way of saying they'd prefer to be out playing!
Grimm is a male 4 month old kitten who has a gorgeous coat of blue gray, not to be confused with a Russian Blue breed, but regardless of his breed, he's 100% sweet and dedicated to his sister!
Maleficent is polar opposite when it come to coloring and coat length. She is an all black majestic princess with a medium to long coat, floofy tail and the cutest ear tufts you'll ever see.
They both have amazing personalities, and Maleficent is the biggest love bug, where Grimm would rather be off playing somewhere. They both have great singing voices and will sing the day away unless they're sleepy or eating.
If possible, we'd like to keep them together, as they are fairly codependent on each other, but we could consider making exceptions if the situation is right!
They'll be ready for adoption this Friday if you are interested in meeting them. Let us know by messaging us here, or sending a request for an application on their petfinder pages!

Take a look at this sweet girl that we got in on Wednesday! She has so much love to give and is looking for a forever home, or a foster in the meantime. She's got it all! Good with kids, kennel trained, housebroken, and just amazing to all of the volunteers up here! She has a couple of quirks, which all pets do. She likes to flip her bowl so that she can eat her food on the floor. We're working on trying to get her to try new methods of eating breakfast and dinner, such as puzzle feeders, and various food dispensing toys, but she's not quite interested in those yet. She cannot be around cats, smaller animals, and chickens. She's not particularly nice with those, and her prey drive kicks in pretty hard. But with her breeds, or what we think her breeds are, it's to be expected. Her original paperwork has her listed as a Belgium Malinois/Coon Hound mix. She has the facial structure of the Malinois and the energy, but the goofy personality of a coonhound and the coloring. We'd prefer to have someone with knowledge of the Malinois breed so that she doesn't end up coming back up here for her nature, but we are also willing to meet with those who are willing to agree to train her further and maintain that. She already knows some basic commands and uses them consistently. Oh, and she loves playing fetch with a ball. Former owner says if you throw it once, be prepared to continue throwing it for a good bit! We see more playful than spastic out of her, so I think she'd be a great fit for a family willing to put in the time with her! If you're interested in meeting her for either foster or adoption, please reach out to us here, as she doesn't yet have a petfinder page!

Halloween is upon us!! We at the shelter want to give some tips for both pets and humans to have a safe and happy Halloween!
If you have pets prone to rushing the door when the bell rings, consider putting them away for the evening in a safe room or kennel. This keeps the risk of them escaping to a minimum.
Is your pet scared of strange situations or unknown things such as costumes or masks. Consider giving them a calming treat or having them in a quiet place with soothing music on.
If you host a Halloween party, make sure your pet is ok with a large amount of people around, provide them a way to escape the excitement, and allow them to decompress.
If you have special holiday drinks or snacks, especially chocolate, make sure that your favorite furry friend can't get access to them. Dark chocolate is the most dangerous for animals. Raisins, grapes, some nuts, citrus fruits, alcohol, salty snack foods, and especially sugar free sweets containing xylitol, which can quickly cause liver failure within days, for smaller animals quicker.
Keep glow sticks and other chemical lights away from pets that can chew them. Glow sticks use glass vials to hold the chemicals that are combined to make the glowing color. While glow sticks are generally non toxic to humans, they can cause significant distress to pets, especially cats since they tend to groom more intensely. Candles in Jack O'lanterns are dangerous to curious pets. Try to keep pets away from these and other decorations that might be cute for us, but dangerous for them!
As tempting as it is, not all pets love dressing up in costumes for the holidays. If you know it'll stress your pet out, please don't force them to wear costumes. If they do wear them, make sure they fit securely, and that there are no dangerous pieces like strings or glitter that can cause serious harm to your pet!
Most importantly, Make sure your pet's ID information is up to date on their microchip and/or collar. A pet with an updated chip is much easier to reunite with their family than an outdated chip or unregistered chip. If your pet wears a collar, consider adding a tag with your identification information on it. If you don't have a tag, apply some strong tape with your info written on it, just in case they do sneak out during the excitement.

Human safety goes along the same lines, Please check all candy and treats for wrapping and potential tampering, There are mostly good people out there for kids, and teens, but there is always the potential to get the wrong person and house.
Make sure your child's, and your costume fits well. Tripping while trick or treating is no fun, especially in the dark.
Carry a flashlight and have reflective material as well as something that is easily seen by cars if wearing a dark costume and walking along the roads.
Glow sticks and jewelry is fun, but make sure it's age appropriate, toddlers should be carefully watched with them if you choose to use them.
Know the area you're in. If you don't know the neighborhood, it's probably safer to stick to one you do.
Know where your kids are. If you have older children that want to go on out on their own. Send them with a phone, or even tuck an airtag in their treat bag so you can know where they go, and in case they get lost, you can find them quickly.
Halloween parties are tons of fun, make sure you're playing it safe with food and drinks. If you have children with you, keep them away from adult snacks and drinks. Jello is tasty for all ages
Last but not least have fun, but be safe! Your family, and fur kids want you to come home too!

While everyone knows kittens are absolutely adorable, and sometimes a bit chaotic, what they don't realize is that for momma cats, it takes a lot out of them. Typically several hours of laboring, sometimes even longer, as we had one born over night after a volunteer spent 4 hours with her before leaving. Most of the time they are alone. Our second mom was outdoors in the cold, found a semi safe place to have her 2nd litter within 3 months, you read that correctly, 3 months, 2 litters, and she might be a total of 6-7 months old herself. We rescued the first set of kittens before we could persuade her to come to us, but couldn't get her in time before she'd had a second litter. Thankfully the people who were feeding her were able to get her and the babies, and get them to us where they're safe from predators, cold, malnourishment, and potentially disease. Our first mom came to us pregnant and we had no idea, she was presumed dumped, as she is friendly and sociable, but we can tell that this also isn't her first litter. While the 2nd momma couldn't have been prevented since she too was born out in the wild, and was semi-domesticated by a group of workers who fell in love with her and her mousing skills, the first momma likely could been prevented, had her owners taken her to get spayed. If you're local, HOPE, Inc. does a low cost spay/neuter which prevents litters from happening. We now have 10 newborn kittens born within a week of each other, 13 if you count the 2nd mom's first litter. Please everyone, schedule your pet's spay/neuter. While we love seeing them all grow up, and enjoying their sweetness, with a tad bit of spiciness with the semi-domesticated ones, yes they learn early, we are full. This kitten season has been non-stop since March. We've housed 36 kittens. Thankfully most of them have found their forever homes, and they're spoiled and happy, but we can prevent this! I love each and every kitty that comes through the door, but I would also love if the moms didn't have to go through it unnecessarily. Please get your pets fixed, every shelter in the Leavenworth County area is full.

***Moms and kittens will not be available for at least 8 weeks for moms, Kittens will be available around February***

10/25/2024

We will be in and out of the shelter today. Please message us here if you need anything! We appreciate your patience!

10/23/2024

* Reuniting with owner tomorrow!! Big thanks to everyone that helped make this happen!!***

Do you recognize this sweet baby? Chipped, but the owner's info is out of date, and the phone number is no longer working. We'd love to get in touch with them to reunite them! If you recognize the kitty, and message us with owner's current info ( we'll verify if it's the right person or not), we'll do our best to get the kitty safely back home! Thanks in advance!

10/21/2024

Come see some of our pumpkin kitties, and take home some sweets, and maybe an application! We'll be at the PX Trunk or Treat on Friday evening, and we hope to see you there!!

It's Fall Y'all! Sorry, we had to, it's just cheesy enough to catch some attention! However, what we'd like to showcase today is our woodland creatures kitties. Originally nicknamed the Porch kittens because all but one was found under a porch, and the last one behind a trash can, ironically not Raccoon, but they all came to us and were around the same age, and pretty much look alike, though they didn't come from the same mom!
We'll start with Rascally Raccoon. This poor boy is the ONLY boy in the entire group! He has technically three sisters that lived with him. Chipmunk is in foster to adopt, so now he only has the two sisters, but he handles it just fine. Raccoon, just like his name, is the curious one of the group. He is the first in line to get out of the kennel so that he can run around to see what's going on in the shelter. He's the cuddliest of the bunch for sure. He will come to the office to jump up and say hi often. He's also tolerant, though not 100% at ease with dogs. If one gets too close, he will swat their nose. He's the fun loving, yet laid back kitty of this group!
Squirrel is exactly as her name says as well. This girl is on the go, all of the time. She hops on the cat wheel and it sounds like it's going to take off at any second because she's running so fast on it! It's a blast to watch. Sometimes she's in the mood to cuddle, and she'll let you hold her for just a second, but for the most part, she's just ready to go! She was the one found behind a trash can, but once she met her siblings, she fit right in with them!
Last, but certainly not least, is Awesome Possum! Possum is our loner. She does like to snuggle with siblings, but she prefers being on her own a bit more. She Loves to be way up high, so anyone who takes her home will need to have tall cat trees or a bookshelf she can get up high to watch everyone from. She doesn't have a curled tail like a possum, but she definitely has an interesting one! Hers is more of a lightning bolt tail! A little shorter than normal and a couple of distinct points making it look like a dark lighting bolt! She is the shyest of the bunch, and doesn't like to be caught, and she gives that tortitude if you try, so if you do catch her, it'll be a quick snuggle time, and then she'll be off doing whatever it is, possum likes to do! Once they are back in their kennels though, she loves to snuggle with her siblings to sleep, so a second kitty might be a good option for her.
All of these babies are ready to find their forever homes, and their indoor woodland forests, and have their own petfinder pages available for more information. You can also get more info by messaging us on here about anyone of the woodland creatures, and we'll be happy to set up a time for you to meet them!

Be cognizant of your sugar free labels! Read carefully what sweetener they use. Previously it was only labeled as Xylitol, which most people know is deadly to pets, and can be found in candies, gum, and even peanut butter. Recently they've been using different names such as Birch Sugar, Wood sugar, and Birch Bark Extract. It only takes 20 minutes for this sweetener to seriously affect your pet. If you do have products with it, please be extra vigilant to keep them out of your pet's reaches!

As some of you might already know, October is Fire Safety Month. Who better than our sweet boy Goku to help teach everyone about fire safety. Goku is estimated to be around 5 yrs old, so he led the conference in the lobby this morning. With his Flame point features and striking blue eyes, all the kitties made sure to take notice of him. One even stopping by to give him a quick kiss hello before the conference. Once he got up on stage to start speaking, he made sure to take note of who all was in attendance.
During the conference, he went over the importance of checking your Fire and Carbon Monoxide alarms. He made sure to point out where the fire extinguisher was, and to make sure it's recharged. He showed the team where the exit was, though he's not quite figured out how to use it yet ( Thankfully!). Goku was the best teacher the group could have had for this meeting and we were so happy for him to take time out of his busy day of bird watching and lounging on the many kitty trees to come in to help us learn about fire safety. You should take a minute to talk to your household about Fire safety, and maybe Goku can visit you as well! He doesn't yet have a Petfinder page, but you can message us here if you'd like to make an appointment to meet him!

10/15/2024

*** Happy to say he found his way back, made friends with a stink kitty, but otherwise good. Thanks everyone***

On post lost pup. Last seen around the intersection of Sylvan and McPherson rd towards the girl scout camp and the fox hound kennels.
His name is Jaeger (Jay-ger) and his command is Jaeger Here. Went missing around 5:30 this afternoon. If you see him or catch him, please message me here, or call the phone number on his collar. Thanks everyone!

It's pumpkin month, so we'll be showing off our cutest little pumpkin kitties!
Our first pumpkin kitty is Ritz Bitz! Originally the tiniest of the Snack pack, he's getting all grown up, and has become a big boy. Ritzy loves to play. He runs all over the shelter, climbs all of the cat trees, and is just go go go when he can! He will snuggle from time to time, but his MO is Sleep, eat and Play hard!
Next we have Pretty Pretzel. As her name suggests, she is the pretty one in the snack pack. Probably because she is the only girl! Her sweet face will make your heart melt, her playful personality will make you smile, and overall, she's just the kitty to bring happiness into your life!
Chillaxed Cheeto's name speaks for itself. He is the chillest kitty in the pack. He loves to play, but he loves watching others play more. He, unlike most cats, is slightly afraid of heights, so if he climbs high, which he will, he'll need some help to get him down. The second you save him from his harrowing ordeal, you'll be rewarded with purrs and snuggles on your neck. This kitty is just the coolest.
Last, but certainly not least is our Timeless Taco. This little guy is an old soul in a kitten's body. He prefers snuggles to zoomies, he loves his pets, and won't refuse if you offer him a snack. When he looks at you and gives you a soft meow, you can resist him, you just have to pick him up and hold him. He is just amazing, and we can't believe he hasn't found his forever home yet! We think soon it will happen for him, he's just too sweet to resist!

The snack pack kitties are 5 months old, and Taco is 6 months old. So if you're looking for a slightly older kitten, you've looked in the right place!

You can find their profiles at FLSF.petfinder.com!

Monday we talked about the Porch kitten litter! Today we're going to focus on our orange chaos crew! We're just kidding, these orange babies are some of the sweetest kitties you'll ever meet! After today they'll all be ready for adoption!
Starting with the snack pack, their story starts out a bit sad. They were found by some post residents at the recycling center inside of a Costco sized Ritz crackers box. All 5 of them stuffed into the box. They were at most 5 weeks old at the time and thankfully had started eating food, though they likely could have been with mom a week or so more. These kittens each had 2 washes each to get all of the fleas and flea dirt off of them, and then piled onto a bed with a heating pad and soft blankets to keep them warm. They had a stuffed "mom" cat to snuggle with, though for the most part they chose each other. Two of the snack pack kittens have found their forever homes, but we still have three more of the siblings up here. They are very playful but also very sweet, and will cuddle up in your arms like holding a baby, since that's what we did up here when they were tiny. Cheeto is the biggest of them, and he was the second largest of the litter when we got him. While Cheeto might look like his namesake Chester cheetah, he is far from boisterous. This boy loves to just sit back and take everything in, watching all the action around him. Don't let that fool you, he does get the zoomies like his siblings, but maybe not quite as hardcore! He's an amazingly cool cat!
Pretzel is the only girl of the litter, but she's far from girly. She has the sweetest most innocent face, but was the first one to teach the others how to escape the room they lived in. So much so that we had to redo the window to keep them from all getting out daily! She's a playful one, and will snuggle from time to time if you're giving her belly scratches, but with 4 brothers and 3 other brothers from another litter rooming with her, she become the ultimate tom boy! Pretzel is fun and adorable all wrapped up on one. She is the tiniest of the litter now, her brother bypassing her in growth after some time, but big personality in a tiny package is what she is!
Last of the litter is Ritz Bitz. Ritz Bitz got his name because he was the teeniest of tiny babies in the box. So much so that his nickname became Itsy Bitsy Ritzy Bitzy, which some of us still call him to this day, despite his growth! Ritz used to be the first one to just cuddle up and stay in your arms, but now that he's gotten to be a big boy, he's all about exploring and having fun! He still loves a good tummy rub, and may even hang out long enough to get sleepy with one, but then he's back on the go! Ritzy is the best of both worlds, both chill and playful. He's the kind of kitten that if you're wanting a good playmate for an older kitty, or a chill friend for a playful kitty, then Ritz is likely a good fit for either!

Last, but certainly not least is Taco. Taco was brought in with his brother Bell after being found on the airfield with their finders were out for a walk. On their way home, the finders stopped at Taco Bell, and being hungry little kittens that they were, the two tried getting into the bag, which is where they got their names! After a weekend passed, they were brought up here, and we have cared for them since. Bell chose a family that just came in to look at our kitties, and went home for a foster to adopt situation that afternoon, but Taco is still hanging out with us.
Taco is by far the most relaxed orange kitty I've ever met, even more so than Cheeto. We think that Bell took up all of Taco's spunkiness and kept it for himself. Taco loves to snuggle. He will just curl up in your arms and let you love him, another one loving belly rubs. That's one thing we do up here to make them more home ready is to handle them and give them lots of rubs, with permission of course. Some love it, some not as much, and we respect their boundaries! Taco is one that loves it. He's kind of like a puppy in that he'll follow you around if he's out when you are walking around. He's getting fixed today, so he'll be available by Friday after we've had a chance to make sure he's healing well!

You can come by and meet any of these kitties, which are all 6 months and under, during our normal business hours, or with an appointment during non-business hours. If any of the pets we've showcased here catch your eye, please message us here, or check out each of their petfinder pages at flsf.petfinder.com and we'll get with you to meet your potential furry forever friend!

We have some pretty amazing kitties up for adoption right now! Most of our kittens have gotten all of their shots, chipped and fixed within the last month, so they are ready to find their forever homes! Only a handful still need their final set of shots and to be fixed!

First up in the ready to find forever homes crew are the Porch Quad kittens!
Three of these sweet babies were found under a porch, which is how they got their names, and thankfully were brought up here so that they could be both safe and vetted to find forever homes! Squirrel was found hiding and crying behind a trash can, and was thankfully able to be rescued and brought up here to join her would be brother and sisters!

Squirrel, While Squirrel isn't biologically part of the porch trio, she quickly found herself added to the litter to create porch quad. She's a spunky little kitten with places to go. Like her name she's easily distracted by cool toys and loves to run on the wheel! She's still kind of shy, but will warm up pretty quickly if she likes you!
Chipmunk, like squirrel is a part of the porch quad litter. Chipmunk is usually seen hanging out with Squirrel and they have some pretty great antics together. When we gave the girls collars, squirrel and chipmunk were the first to get theirs off, making sure that telling them apart would be extra challenging for the volunteers. Chipmunk too loves toys and running on the wheel!
Raccoon is the love bug of the porch quad, and the only boy! Surrounded by sisters, he's quick to sneak out of the kennel and go out on his own. He loves to snuggle up with humans for a short bit, and then is off to go find things to do. He's very hard to resist though, he has the absolute cutest little nose of the bunch with it being dark gray!
Possum is the last of the porch quad. She is super shy, but starting to come out of her shell. She's an adorable tortie, with a lightning bolt tail. We're not sure how it happened, but she is just as adorable as can be. We think she would do better to go home with one of her siblings, but if there's another kitty willing to take her under their wing in your home, then she might do ok with that!

If you think you might be interested in any of our porch kittens, please message us here, or check out their petfinder profiles!

Don't stop me now!

Do you love a playful pup who gets zoomies just for the fun of it, runs circles in your yard, which is absolutely the cutest thing ever, and always has a smile on his face. He's a slightly picky eater, but is getting much better about it. He's the absolute sweetest boy. Downside is he leaves a bit of husky glitter everywhere he goes, but small price to pay for such an amazing boy! If any or all of this appeals to you, then we may have the doggo for you! Odin is a sweet boy looking for a foster or even better, a forever family! He's been hanging out with us for a little while, and we think he might just be ready to find a place a little bit bigger with a lot of room to run. He can get around smaller fences, or at least we've been told that, but we haven't seen him try. His preference is just to run and play with his friends, mainly running in circles chasing them until they give up, then it's wrestling time. His playing can sound ferocious, but he's just a big bouncy bumbly boy that is literally just the happiest dog. If you think you have some space for him to run, and a lot of love to give him, we'd love to chat with you! Feel free to message us here, and we'll see about setting up a meet and greet with Odin! He's 11 months old, Up to date on shots, and neutered! Song downloaded with permission from https://ia804709.us.archive.org/7/items/DontStopMeNow_255/Queen-DontStopMeNow_64kb.mp3

When there are renovations going on over on the dog side, the one pup needing special care right now gets to spend his day in the office. Can't say it's been the quietest day ever, but he's been amazing, minus those silent and deadly toots he's given lol. Day 3 of his journey to being healthy again!

Now, normally, Rocky reserves his kitchen duties to just being the daily water tester to make sure the water is good enough to please all the kitties, but today, because the dishwasher was making all kinds of strange noises during the drying phase, he decided he also needed to make sure the drying rack was also safe and sturdy enough to hold the dishes. We love our Rocky, but we think he might need a job in a kitchen full time to supervise all of the things. He won't take up much room, just enough to watch over and make sure, especially, that your sink and dishwasher are functioning properly. We love him, and we'd love if he found a job in his own home! If you'd like to interview him for a position, please message us on here!

So Ghost is looking for another foster! His current one got a job that is going to have her working overnights, and while Ghost has made tremendous strides in regards to his manners, he's not quite to the level of them feeling confident with significant change in routines and how he'll do. Things we've found out, he loves to play, all the time with dogs, humans he just wants to play. Loves giving kisses, this has been a bit of a challenge for his foster family since their fur-less kiddo is a newborn who isn't always ready for his full on face kisses. Has gotten very good with crate training, with the exception of overnights which are hit and miss regarding accidents. He LOVES being outside. The longer the time the better. He enjoys coming in for snuggles, but when he's done he's ready to go back outdoors. I feel like a home with a fenced in yard and a doggy door would be the perfect arrangement for him. As for family, we think he'd do best with a family that has no or older children, since he still doesn't realize his size and likes to lean into people and other dogs. If you think you might be able to help him refine his forever home skills, please reach out to us and we'll get you more information on how to foster or adopt!

From Rocky, Ambrosia, Nadia, Loki, Stone, James and all of us here at the shelter, We hope you have a very Happy Valentine's Day!

Oden and Snickers playing in the yard together. Run and Fun!

Meet Ty our just under 2 yr old Siberian husky. As you can see he loves his snow and he loves people. Ty is looking for his forever home, where he can frolic in the snow or lounge on the couch, just as long as you're there to greet him, he has tons of love to give!

Huskies in snow part 2! Oden edition! I apologize for my hand getting in the way, the lights skewed my lens lol.

Happy huskies in the snow part 1! Ty!

One of our foster pups got to come over for a playdate with Oden, and then Ty this afternoon. Snickers wasn't quite sure what to make of the gentle giant Oden, but they had lots of fun after a bit!

Some days all you need is an open window and a blustery, albeit warm, fall day to make you smile.

Playtime Finn style

When Finn is staying with fosters or visiting with volunteers, he takes playtime,walk and run time very, very seriously. As you can see here, rubber chickens have no chance with him. This can go on for some time, but we'll keep it short here.
