Your cat deserves a nice Catio. Mine love theirs. This one is perfect if you rent or have an HOA that won’t allow anything. Joe does quality work.

a month or so ago i came across this man on a Reno Community page. he was trying to find some side work to save up some money to get this cat to a vet -- but it was an urgent situation and there really wasn't time for him to try to save the money. Options saw this cat the next morning and they took wonderful care of him in an urgent situation. its time to help pay the bill. please donate if you can -- or if not, share in case someone you know could donate. thank you!

Please step up and help these kittens!!! If you only have one or two cats, consider putting a few of these fosters in a bedroom. The time is coming quickly when our shelters are not going to be able to maintain their no-kill status.

Olivia and Ozzy did their best but these kids won. Congratulations to them and thank you all who did vote for Olivia and Ozzy!!!

i have said i wasn't in it to win it -- but Olivia and Ozzy have both dropped to third place. its okay for someone else to be on the Options wall. Abby, Cory and Hunter all have their place and Abby raised a LOT of money for the clinic. But now they need more to be able to help community pets. Please go take a look and vote for someone to get Options a little closer to their goal!!!

Can you foster some kittens???? They need a place to go by Friday, September 29.

09/28/2023

if you can help find these kitties a forever home, please help!!!! ringworm isn't a death sentence!!

Yesterday was one of THOSE days.

THOSE days that no one likes to see or talk about because nobody wants to be a Debbie Downer on social media.

But to be honest, “those” days happen often in rescue. At least over here.

The weight of the world is constantly on your shoulders then the universe adds one more teeny-tiny weight,
and BAM! This is what you look like.

Who would ever guess that a positive ringworm test could send somebody into a complete state of hysteria?

Seems silly, since ringworm is just a pesky fungus that is treatable and non-life threatening.

But when you have three highly adoptable cats that have been waiting for a very long time for a home and they were supposed to be showcased at this weekend’s cat show for a chance at adoption, but now they can’t come,
it’s enough to send someone into tears.

Campfire, Flashlight, and even more crucially, Baby Citrine have been waiting for a long time for a home and now after all of this time,
have developed a single spot of ringworm, which deters people from adopting.

I am literally crying out for someone to adopt Campfire, Flashlight, or Citrine.

We have finally had interest in two of them but when you say “ringworm”, people run for the hills.

I get it, it’s a pain in the 🍑
hence the tears,
But It’s easy to treat for ringworm,
just time consuming.

We will give you the links to the products we use and show you how to use them.

Please, Cat Gods, send us an angel!
🙏🏼👼🏼

who needs a white kitty? this little cutie is ready for her forever home. so many need homes -- if you get one kitten, you need to get two so they have a buddy!!!!

Sweet Tart is officially available for adoption! She's one of many kittens we've taken in from Animal Services lately as a foster because she needed some extra time and TLC. She's 4 months old and flourishing with one of our staff members. She is great with feline companions and tolerates mild-mannered dogs. She takes her time warming up to people but is very playful, charming, curious, and gentle - not to mention quite good-looking! 😺 If you're interested in seeing if Sweet Tart would be a good addition to your family, reach out to Options today at the email below. Let's find her a great home! ⬇❤

Hey locals!!! Its still kitten season -- kittens need fosters! Please help if you can -- or at least share!!

Update: Foster Found!

We know we're heavy on the kitten asks this week, and while we'll explain more soon, we have another need for fosters! 😺 The goal is to place these two by the end of today. They need socialization and TLC to help them gain confidence and better trust people. They are quiet, scared, and minimally hissy - that's it! We'll provide tips and training for socialization. You provide a soothing home, an open heart, and snuggle time galore! If you can help, contact us at 775-499-3700 or [email protected].

Fostering is fun, rewarding, and truly, saves lives! ❤

i have seen the posts on the Nextdoor app and a Reno page. sadly the people responding to this woman's posts do not have the full story

A few of you may have seen a complaint on social media from a woman who became upset. She made multiple posts to various social media sites where we cannot respond, hence this post: A few months ago one of her dogs came in for a neuter and we are sorry that he experienced inflammation following the surgery. Sometimes this is caused by licking at the incision site; other times an individual animal experiences a reaction to suture material. Occasionally, the E-collar, intended to prevent licking, can cause irritation if the dog is repeatedly trying to lick. A veterinarian saw the dog the day after surgery and provided advice to reduce inflammation and we understood that the dog had recovered fully. Due to the level of anger the owner had shared with staff we were surprised when she called for a second surgery recently, an enucleation or eye removal. Trust between a client and their veterinarian is so important that we recommended that she seek another clinic for that surgery, which she indicated was urgent. While Options clinic tries to help with emergencies as we can, it is not an emergency clinic, and we do refer people to other clinics when we are unable to meet urgent needs. The team at the clinic cares deeply about all animals and our mission is to provide veterinary care to pets who would otherwise suffer without care for economic reasons. We have performed over 1,300 surgeries so far this year with a very low complication rate. We know this does not affect the fact that this dog experienced inflammation nor does it repair the way the dog’s owner feels, but we are glad the dog has recovered well and wish his person well.
