❄️As the temperatures drop, please remember this tip from Planned Pethood about only using STRAW in outdoor cat shelters.
-----------------------
Outdoor Cat Shelter Tip!

Create an outdoor cat shelter and fill it with STRAW, not hay!

An outdoor cat house filled with STRAW will keep your feline friends warm and cozy during the chilly winter weather.

Straw and hay look similar, but while straw makes for excellent bedding, hay becomes a soggy mess.

❎️Hay soaks up moisture, making it cold and uncomfortable.

✅️STRAW repels moisture, making it the best bedding for outdoor cat shelters.

Meet Buzz! 🥰

🤎He and his brother Woody spent their first six weeks of life living in attic insulation with zero human contact. It took time and patience to earn Buzz's trust, but he's grown into a healthy, happy, content boy who enjoys being with other cats and people!

🤎He’s a big boy for his age (7 months) and has always reminded his foster mom of a little lion cub. She loves seeing how far he's come from the terrified, sickly, scrawny kitten he was when he first arrived in his foster home. We’re incredibly proud of him!

🤎Buzz likes the play tunnel, catnip toys, and wrestling with his foster siblings!After an energetic play session, he likes to sleep on the cat tree and on his foster mom's bed. Buzz is friendly but shy. He’s learning to like being picked up and carried, but he gets easily overstimulated.

🤎He LOVES food and will try to eat at least a bite from every other cat's portion before eating his own. He likes wet food and dry kibble, and pretty much any kind of treat. The sure way to Buzz’s heart is with food and treats!

🤎He gets along great with the other cats and kittens and two small dogs in his foster home. He would probably be happiest in a home with older children. Buzz would likely be fine as an only kitty as long as he gets plenty of play and enrichment, but he would also be very happy to be adopted into a home with another kitty friend!

Want to meet him? Visit our website to fill out an Adoption Application, and be sure to include his name! https://www.billythekiddenrescue.org/adopt 🙏🏻

Webster shared, "Can you help fill my bowl?" ❤ We're extremely low on wet cat food again at our shelter. The kitties wanted us to specifically mention they really like any flavor of Pate.

It's hard to keep asking for help but you really do make a difference for a lot of homeless kitties! If you're not local, you can shop our Amazon or Chewy lists to ship directly to GMHS.
