As the holiday season begins, people start thinking of gifts and often animals are considered. Please, do not give animals a gifts for the holidays without taking in some serious consideration.
Does the person the gift is intended for really want that animal?
Is the person capable of caring for the animal for its natural life?
Is the animal going to be in the best situation?
While animals are gifted with the best of intentions, often times the situation ends up not being a good fit and the animal is given to a shelter or, worse, abandoned.
Puppies are an enormous responsibly that not everyone is ready to deal with. They require training and supervision and not everyone is prepared for that level of commitment. Giving one to a child seems wonderful but the parents must be prepared to assist in that care as well as the expense.
Kittens also require a lot of supervision and can be highly active and get into mischief that people don't always realize.
Smaller animals such as rabbits, birds, and reptiles have care needs that may be more than realized.

Please, before bringing any animal into a home do extensive research on the care the animal requires. Be sure the intended owner is capable in all ways of providing for the needs of that animal, especially financially.

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Make sure everyone is on the same page about how to celebrate safely with pets. Some animals are hesitant around groups of people - don't force interactions.
Ask guests not to feed pets table scraps and communicate allergies or intolerances your pet may have.

Show your pet how thankful you are for them - keep them safe and happy!

Misty is looking for a home! Misty is 15 years young and her owner died in 2021, leaving her to fend for herself. A good Samaritan fed Misty when she would come by, but noticed one day she was drooling and she grew agitated when he tried to wipe her face. Out of concern for rabies, Misty was brought to us by her local animal control officer. We found Misty had a large wound on her tongue that had caused pain and drooling. Her tongue has since healed and she will soon be ready for a new home. Misty is VERY sweet. She will be vaccinated and have a dental procedure and cardiology assessment before adoption (she has a small heart murmur). Her lab work was normal except that Misty does have FIV, feline immunodeficiency virus. This virus is unlikely to cause her problems and is transmissible to other cats through bite wounds. It would be best for Misty to be an only cat for this reason, or to live in a home with another FIV positive cat. We are unsure at this time how Misty feels about other cats, but dogs do make her nervous. Misty was hungry when she got here and wore her food all over her face!
