Feline Friends of Sammamish

Find us in the Renton Highlands down May Valley Road. We're passionate about cats; finding better homes for cats in need....no cat left behind!

Reservations form https://felinefriendsofsammamish.org/visit-the-kitties-at-the-purr-boxx-studio-in-renton/ In early 2019, a group of volunteers were donating their time to the Purrfect Pals adoption center in a local Petco. Our group and efforts grew and later in that same year we became Feline Friends of Sammamish, an official 501c3 non-profit organization. We now have over 40 volunteers, over 1

5 foster families and are continuing to grow! In January 2022, we opened a cat adoption lounge in Renton, located on the Sammamish Animal Sanctuary property. We pride ourselves on the lounge's home-like setting. Our cats aren't caged here; they have the freedom and room to play. Windowsills offer birdwatching opportunities; while sofas, cushions and cat towers offer plenty of places to snooze peacefully. Our rescue cats come from all walks of life. During the year, we make trips to Idaho shelters that we partner with (many of which are kill shelters) and bring back an average of 30 cats per trip, who would otherwise be euthanized. Although the van we use has limited capacity, volunteers have been known to pick up a stray cat on the way home! In addition to abandoned or stray cats, we also take in cats from local families needing to re-home their pet. All cats who come to us get a visit from our volunteer vet as well as whatever flea, deworming medications or shots they need. We never refuse a cat who's in less than perfect health. Instead, we do whatever is necessary to get them the care they need to get well ensuring that their new families won't be burdened with unexpected vet bills. Since October of 2019 we have rescued more than 250 cats! We are determined to leave no cat behind! Would you like to help? We are always looking for more people who are willing to foster our cats while we are looking for their forever home. There are volunteer opportunities to take a shift at the cat lounge; you would help with the feeding, scooping the cat boxes and cleaning. Of course, loving on the cats and playing with them while you are there is also very important! Transportation from the cat lounge to vet appointments and back is also an important need. If you would rather donate money than time, that is always very much appreciated! For more information please email: [email protected]

🏠 for the holiday, Dove (prev Cheeto) and her human have a special bond. She looks very relaxed and happy. When they’re not cuddling, she is playing fetch with her human. Rescue success!

Guess which one is Bunny and which is Bear. Foster kittens relaxing during the holidays.

Here comes Santa…

orphan bottle raised kittens turned siblings we have Jack and Shock here humbly trying on the red suit costume for the holiday.

Is it this way to the reindeer tryouts? Tell Santa I’m ready!

Foster kitten Clyde is the first to don this winter apparel for the holiday. Do you think Santa will give him a chance to guide his sleigh?

Even during the holidays, homeless pets need care and support. If you have ever considered fostering or adopting cats or kittens, we will help make a match happen for you! We also welcome donations to our nonprofit organization.

**Animals should never be given as surprise gifts to individuals who are unprepared or unable to provide proper care.**

Balls are for trees! 🎄

1. Neutered cats live longer, healthier lives, and are far less likely to fight other cats. FIV, FeLV, and other diseases are spread by cat bites sustained while fighting.

2. Neutered cats are less likely to spray. Smelly tomcat urine damages property and causes problems with neighbors and landlords.

3. Neutered cats are less likely to be trapped, dumped, or taken to a shelter. Being neutered advertises that someone cares and that they won’t be reproducing.

4. Neutered cats fight less often and less aggressively. This saves money on veterinary bills to treat abscesses and wounds.

5. Neutered cats stay closer to home. They are less likely to get lost, killed by predators, or hit by vehicles while roaming and searching for mates.

Ummm so here we have a kitten soothing another kitten by suckingly on him. Both are boys. Firelight even does it to himself! Even if he’s got a been by cuddled and snuggled all day he still does this even while on your lap! He loves the cuddles. He’s currently hanging out with us at the Purr Boxx Studio in Renton! Would you like to meet him? Let us know!

Her injuries were just too severe. We spent all day trying to figure out how to help her... Rest in peace little one. May our compassion in the end make up for how you were treated before we knew you.
Run free and well.

Why… there are many possibilities but we don’t know what happened . First Mr Tuxedo cat we named Lucky for being dropped off at our rescue for a second chance. We have stayed a bit hidden off the main road, nestled closely to Sammamish Animal Sanctuary that drop offs rarely happen but this was the first unattended drop.

The next day a SAS volunteer found these three on the side of the road near Tiger Mountain in Issaquah. One of the kittens was by severely injured with multiple broken bones - possibly an animal attack, crush injury or hit by a car. Included are the X-rays from the urgent care we were able to get her into this morning. To be continued…

Thank YOU to everyone who donated to the Yakima Spay/Neuter event!! ✨

Our goal was to raise $1800; your contribution brought the total to $2140!!! Which allowed the clinic to complete 70 surgeries!!!! 42 of which were females!!

And a special thanks to Brittnie Eakle for developing our marketing message for the event!

Your support makes a significant impact in controlling the number of litters of kittens needing homes❤️

Waiting for her purrfect person to come adopt her. Mystique, adult female age unknown, young but full grown. Has bright green eyes and dainty feet. She enjoys her quiet time and snuggling in dark places but most of all cuddling with her bff Ginny who is a beautiful swirled tabby. Come meet Mystique and Ginny at Feline Friends of Sammamish in Renton.

Can you help us reach our goal? Please donate to help the cats of Yakima. Spay and neuter is the solution to overpopulation and homeless, unwanted pets.

Bow-tie nose! From Lucky’s foster family, “She has settled right in and learned to enjoy cozying up to people under their warm blankets.” If you’re interested in learning more about this lucky cat and how to adopt her, please contact us or submit an application. Our website is now a dot org! Lucky was the first cat we had dropped off when we were not staffed. No note. No explanation. She was not an outdoor cat. We consider her a WELL FED cat of a few years old. “We still wonder about her history and why such a wonderful cat would be abandoned.”

Goofiness with these two! Our bonded pair of orange and white brothers are really such a sunshiny joy to be around. They purr when you pick them up (and they are hefty for only 6 months!) but they might share a single brain cell between the two of them. If you know you know… orange cats are the best! Submit an application to meet Butch and Sundance! #orangecatenergy #adoptablekittens Adoptable cats and kittens near Seattle at Feline Friends of Sammamish.

Come cuddle with our kittens on weekends from 11-2! We have adoptable kittens who are SU-PURR cuddly as you can see from this video. We recommend reservations so we can prioritize your kitten cuddling time. We feature more cats to adopt on our website and Petfinder. Be sure to search for us by name: Feline Friends of Sammamish! ***Comment VISIT and we will personally send you the link!

We have what you want. #blackfriday #blackcatsrule #adoptablackcat

Thankful kitties at the Purr Boxx studio at Feline Friends of Sammamish. We are excited to get to know Lucky girl this week as she gets more and more friendly with us.

It’s WARM, BRIGHT and probably smells good too! Come see all the local artisans’ wares including Feline Friends of Sammamish branded merchandise for your cat loving friends! Looking forward to this event because many of us in the area are still without power due to the #bombcyclone that hit the PNW… there are many trees down including some by our rescue. #rentonevents #renton

Another good way to warm up after a bomb cyclone and power outages, cuddling your furry friends! The more the better! These kittens are looking for their own cuddly family, hopefully with one of their siblings. Being a lonely only kitten is not ideal! As you can see these kittens love to cuddle together!

Hot tip: stay warm with your humans. They make great heaters. - Buffett Even though we are without power here in the Seattle area, we are doing our best to keep our foster cats and residents warm. We also remind ourselves that while 65° indoors is still a lot warmer than 40-50° outdoors in the rain and wind. Buffett here was one of those cats just a few weeks ago… so rescue, foster or adopt. Donations always appreciated.

Come meet them to get to know them! “They are becoming climbers and are jumping on everything. They seemed very happy keeping each other occupied and would come say Hi to us humans every once and awhile.” - Erika @theycallme_erika31 #kittensforadoption

Renton,friends! Come visit us at the Holiday Bazaar this weekend to get some handmade cat themed items to support our cat rescue! #renton #crafts
