Thank you CVRR for all you do to help the kitties!

Have you ever seen a MALE tortoiseshell cat? Well now you have - here he is! 😻

About 1 in 3,000 tortoiseshell cats are male, making them quite rare and uncommon. This is because two X chromosomes are needed to produce the trademark tortoiseshell coloring of black, orange, and yellow/gold, while male cats only have one X and one Y chromosome. The male tortie cat has XXY chromosomes (Klinefelter Syndrome).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yesterday we were able to help spay/neuter 37 cats/kittens through our Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program! These 37 cats also received rabies vaccines, treatment for worms and fleas, and given medical care they would have otherwise likely never received. And if anyone is wondering, this male tortie in the group of 36 has caretakers who love him very much and will be keeping him as an indoor kitty now!

37 cats who no longer have to worry about the cycle of suffering & the results of continuous mating, fighting, and birthing litter after litter. 37 cats who are now healthier and able to live longer, happier lives in the only home they have ever known. This is the gift of TNR 🎁

We are so grateful to our amazing TNR team of volunteers, independent trappers, dedicated caretakers, South Central Spay and Neuter Clinic for getting 6 of our kitties fixed, and last but certainly not least, a HUGE shoutout to the amazing and talented Dr. Ryan and all the staff at Riverside Veterinary Hospital for fixing and taking care of 31 cats - all in a days work... we couldn't do it without you ❤️
