The Purr-sery at The Menagerie

I am BEYOND ECSTATIC to announce that the super silly but initially shy Pork Sissies of the Chinese Takeout Litter, Pork Bun and Mushu Pork, were adopted together yesterday, sight unseen!

These sweet kitties have had several meet-n-greets, or should I say ATTEMPTED meet-n-greets. As soon as someone would come to meet them, they would VANISH. I would be on my hands and knees looking for them and they would be GONE, only to reappear shortly after the potential adopter had left. They're such sweeties, they just didn't want anyone to know it.

Thank you to everyone who has ever taken a chance on a cat that you didn't get to meet in person.
Thank you to everyone who has read a bio or seen a photo and felt an instant connection.
Thank you to everyone who's ever taken a leap of faith and followed their heart. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Happy Filbert Friday: the prodigal butt returns 😆
Do you desire to be constantly yelled at by an ungrateful goblin? Swiped at from above as the dragon taunts you from the tallest cat trees? Have a silly snake weave figure 8s around your ankles while you're trying to walk? Then Filly's your boy!

He tormented his poor brother so mercilessly that he got returned, so he now gets to torment way more than just one cat. No one is safe. He's back and living his b̶e̶s̶t̶ naughtiest life.

As someone once said, "The best cat is a bad cat". It was me. I said it and I stand by it.

Message us today to meet this furry little terror! (Seriously, distract him for a minute and give the rest of us a break!)

Happy Take-Me-Home Tuesday!

In the last 2 weeks, Eddie, Boba, and Elnora found their forever home together and Enola got to go with Edgar ❤️ Happy rest of forever, babies!

This leaves our Chinese Takeout Trio: Eggroll and his pork sisters, Pork Bun, and Mushu Pork, 3 from the May the 4th Litter: Han, Ahsoka, and Leia, 2 Ee-ees: Elle and Ella with their mother Elanore, and, we hadn't made a post yet, but Filbert is back! The naughty boy decided he was bored in a home with only his brother and took it out on poor little Quill, so he's looking for a home with other cats that also aspire to be professional boxers or some easygoing dogs that can withstand his punchy little paws and playful tackles.

Message us today to set up a meet-n-greet or even just to come by for some kitten therapy!

BREAKING NEWS!
The triplets are all on the bed WITH ME! This is the first time Mushu Pork (Miss Mush) has EVER been on furniture with me, I'm so proud of her! She's weary about fully closing her eyes, but she stayed for almost an hour! We did share some shrimp yesterday, so that might have something to do with it. And of course, Egg Roll (Eggy Boy) is always here, he's such a sweet, snuggly boy, by my side all day and all night. And Pork Bun (PuBu) saw a cuddle opportunity with her brother and snuck up and wedged her sweet head under his chin.

Order up, this tasty trio is ready for pickup! Check out their full bios here:

Oh, Kazoo ❤️ She's not ready for adoption yet, she's having some serious trouble growing so she can't be spayed yet. I think she just likes being the teeniest thing ever.

Spay/neuter one, save dozens.

As an adult, math still frustrates me (Why was trigonometry always so difficult?)

But nothing is quite as frustrating as Cat-math. No matter how hard we all work to end the suffering of cat overpopulation, the truth is that it only takes one unspayed female getting pregnant... to create another massive hoarding situation.

Every year dozens of people reach out with the same message, "I brought in a stray cat. Turns out the cat was pregnant and she had kittens."

This will be followed with a scenario like, "I am a senior and I cannot care for them all" "I could not afford to get the kittens fixed but I still kept them all." "I am going to lose my housing because I have too many cats" "It is an emergency, I am being evicted tomorrrow and the cats need help"

Then they tell you the number of cats that they have... And... that number is, often, shocking.

20, 30, 40 cats (almost always with kittens)

I am here to remind you that you will NEVER beat CAT MATH - The only way to prevent the numbers of cats happening is to get that ONE stray cat fixed as soon as they are on your doorstep... $100-150 to spay one cat is a lot easier than trying to fix 20, 30, 40+ cats.

Cat math will forever be my most disliked subject. With it comes immense suffering for cats, and also the suffering of humans (who live with dozens of cats). No one wins in the game of cat math 😢

Born to bite, forced to snuggle

Mama Padme, mother of May the Fourth litter, despises other animals as much a she despises the fall of democracy. She's forcibly removed all the other cats from the top floor and now reigns as supreme queen of the upstairs, but has discovered she doesn't completely despise being held and loved on. She's very good at expressing her opinions, as any good politician should be. As long as you respect her and listen to what she's saying, you shouldn't have a problem with this young mommy.

If you have a nice, quiet home and want a sweet companion, Padme is your girl! Message us to set up a meet-n-greet today!

Mama Eleanor and her little Ee-ees are thriving, and getting in some early introduction to dogs! Eleanor is adorable and such a talkative little mama. They're wild and adventurous, even at such a young age!

Buy these babies some toys! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3SADSCVWBXJFX?ref_=wl_share
