Spay Hampton Roads Adoption saves a life. Spay/neuter saves hundreds!

ART’s SpayHR Program launched in spring 2010 with the Norfolk Pet Project, a spay/neuter campaign to help neighborhoods in Norfolk with high volumes of calls to Norfolk Animal Control. Since then, we’ve made it our mission to educate our community about the value of spaying/neutering pets and to assist the public in finding quality, low-cost spay/neuter services throughout Hampton Roads.

Text from Stray Cat TNR ...

It's kitten season! Good-hearted people around the country are discovering kittens in their neighborhoods.

This is your PSA for today 📣: DO NOT SCOOP UP KITTENS AND LEAVE THE MOM CAT BEHIND!

It can be tempting to gather up the kittens and bring them indoors to keep them safe and fed. However, it is important to know that this is not in a kitten’s best interest if they are too young and certainly not in the best interest of the mom.

🛑 Stop and think about how this affects the bigger picture of overpopulation. If you REALLY want to "rescue", try leaving the kittens where they are so you might catch a glimpse of the mother and be able to help them ALL, so you can stop the unending cycle of reproduction. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Do not assume that kittens are abandoned or orphaned just because you do not see their mother. A mother cat will temporarily leave her kittens for good reasons, like looking for food. She may even be hiding and waiting for YOU to leave. Those kittens you found? They are healthy for a reason, and that reason is because they have a mom caring for them. You can always reach out to a shelter or rescue for advice on how to proceed.

✨Remember, Mother knows best.✨ You can not replace a mother cats’ instinctive care. Plus, neonatal kittens (kittens 4 weeks old and younger) need specialized care to survive, which is challenging for humans to provide. Most shelters and rescues do not have the resources/fosters necessary to provide this kind of care round-the-clock care.

🚩If the kittens are sick, injured, cold, or dirty, it IS time to intervene, whether you see Mama Cat or not.

More detailed information about what to do when you see kittens: https://www.alleycat.org/community-cat-care/finding-kittens-outdoors/

If you scoop up kittens and leave the mom behind, you have left her to go through the same thing all over again in just a couple of months. 😭

STOP the cycle by spaying her AND rescuing the kittens.

Meet Penny our POTW

This stunning girl is looking for her purr-fect forever home!

Penny is a gentle soul who can be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, her love and affection come shining through. She’s been through a lot and is hoping to find a calm, peaceful home where she can truly thrive.

Penny would do best as the only pet in a low-stress environment.
She’s okay with respectful kids 10 and up who can give her the space she needs.

Due to a past issue with urinary crystals, Penny is on a prescription diet to help keep her healthy and comfy. We recommend a quick check-up in 6–12 months just to make sure everything is still going smoothly!

Penny is sweet, sensitive, and absolutely deserving of a loving home where she can feel safe and cherished. If you think you could be her person, come meet this pretty girl at the shelter today!

Penny thanks Purina for providing delicious food for all felines and canines at the shelter as they wait for their forever homes!

🕐Pampered Chef Fundraiser - Time is running out! You have until March 31, 2025 to make your Pampered Chef purchase. 🕐

🥞 Meet Pancake!! 🥞

Your purchase will help cats like Pancake! Believe it or not. Pancake once lived in one of our community cat colonies! This sweet boy made the decision to make the more from outdoor life to having the luxury of indoor life!

Unfortunately, his life of living in the great outdoors has taken a toll on his health. His most current vet trip was for a dental where he had to have many teeth removed. Surgery like this is thousands of dollars.

Your Pampered Chef purchase helps us to continue providing medical care to Pancake and other community cats in our care.

Please take a moment and browse our fundraiser.
