More cats have died with severe neurological disease due to highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza, and they don't all have connections to dairy farms, raw milk, or sick birds.

The national HPAI outbreak is spreading and cats are particularly susceptible. Could infected cats enter your shelter, TNR clinic, or other programs? Would you know what to look for? Or how to respond?

Join us tomorrow December 20, 2024 at 2:30-3:30pm CT, for a special session of National Shelter Medicine Rounds focusing on H5N1 and its implications for animal shelters and animal welfare professionals.

This informal but timely discussion will address the latest updates on the virus, its potential impact on shelter operations, and key considerations for safeguarding both animals and staff. A concise list of recommendations for shelters will be shared following the session to support your preparedness efforts. We hope to see you there for this critical conversation.

🐾🐱 National Cat Day is here! 🐱🐾 Created to raise awareness for the countless cats needing homes, this day is a call to action for all cat lovers. 🏡💛

If you’ve ever thought about opening your home to a cat in need, now is the perfect time. Consider adoption, supporting TNR, or helping your local rescues with donations or volunteer time. 🐾 TNR is crucial in giving stray and feral cats a chance at a healthier, safer life, while helping manage the cat population humanely. 💉🛠️

Give your indoor and outdoor kitties a little extra love today for all they bring into our lives. 🐈‍⬛💕 Cats fill our hearts with loyalty and companionship—let’s return that love to them and all cats in need.

Cat Snip is a private clinic, not directly open to the public. This is so it can focus on its mission of serving shelters, rescues, and Trap-Neuter-Return programs.

Happy National Feral Cat Day! If you feed them, please fix them.
