We decided decided as a team at Poppy would be happier entering our barn program.
When cats have had no interaction with humans almost their whole life, it's very hard to rehabilitate them into pets. I think Poppy would be happier doing her own thing, catching mice and living outside, since she has been doing it her whole life. Many rescues and shelters have a barn program if you're needing cats for barns or shop cats please reach out to your local shelter and rescues.For more information.

OCTOBER 29, 2025 | NATIONAL CAT DAY 😻

National Cat Day also serves as an awareness day with a serious purpose to urges pet lovers to adopt from local shelters and reminds us that neutering and spaying our furry companions helps reduce the abandoned population.

Shelters are full of cats and kittens in need of forever homes. These feline fur babies come with as many personalities as they do colors and coats. They curl into our hearts and will just as quickly remind us they decide who they love. Whether they were born in the shelter, surrendered or abandoned, 3.4 million find their way to a shelter.

Mr. Frank, with a lot of TLC and some more weight on him, is going to be a gorgeous cat. I am soaking up all the snuggles this morning. ❤️ He is the best medicine for both of us.

Day I got Nick now Theodore. He was severely injured and attacked by an animal. His tail had to be amputated, so tiny now, look at him all grown up. Such a handsome fella. Adopted to a wonderful family, he is surrounded by other cats and dogs, living his best life. As a foster, that's what we aim for - the best for our animals.

Please! It's cold outside and they want to be warm too. Bang the hood, kick the tires, and sound the horn a couple of times. Just take a minute; you could save a life! This is how I got my cat, Skyler. She and her sister climbed into someone's car engine on a cold December day.

I made a list for local and I pretty much across Missouri and parts of Illinois pet pantries if anyone is needing assistance. Please share

Pet Pantry 🐾
are very important to the community we noticed quite a few people wanting to surrender there pets. When we ask them why do you want to surrender your pets it's because they cannot afford the food and the care of their pets.
By providing essential resources like food and supplies to pet owners in need, these pantries are not only helping to keep beloved pets with their families but also reducing the strain on animal shelters. It's wonderful to see individuals & organizations coming together to support vulnerable pet owners and ensure that pets receive the care and love they deserve. Thank you to the pet pantries in our area. Helping to keep pets in loving homes.
List of community resources to support families and their pets. We recommend contacting your local pet food bank prior to visiting to learn more about their distribution hours and services.
