May the 4th be with you, and may Minnie Mouse finally find her Furever home after ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฌ of waiting! ๐ฟ
๐Minnie has been waiting here at the Rescue since October 16th, 2023. That's almost ๐ณ ๐บ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ต๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ hoping that someone will finally see past her FIV and give her a chance.๐
Minnie Mouse's hobbies include playing with wand toys, rolling in cat nip, laying in warm laps for snuggles, and she loves other cats! (Although she has none to play with here as she is our only FIV+ cat.) ๐พ
Lets shed some light sabers๐ก. . . on FIV. ๐๐ช๐ฅ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ฌ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ค๐ข๐ถ๐ด๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ฉ ๐ช๐ฏ ๐๐๐+ ๐ค๐ข๐ต๐ด ๐ช๐ด ๐ฐ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ข๐จ๐ฆ? ๐
If your FIV+ cat gets sick with something else, they may not respond as well to traditional treatments like a cat without FIV. But for the most part, FIV positive cats can live relatively normal lives and enjoy all of the things that a regular cat does.๐ฅฐ

Caturday means Laser Tag at the Rescue. Enrichment and exercise are so important to the well-being of our cats. Plus, it's a hoot to watch them go nuts thinking they have a chance of catching the little red dot!!
So this happened this week. This cat was found at a business and taken in by a good Samaritan who was unaware she had wee kittens hidden. After bringing the mom home, she almost immediately fled. The next day, the 3-day-old kittens were found and brought to the Rescue for care. Not 24 hours later, the mom was captured and, again brought to us. As you can see, she took to her babies in no time. Through the hard work of our staff, our foster, Elliot, and the community member, we were able to reunite this adorable family. Oh, and the mom couldn't be any sweeter and of course, the babies are beyond cute.
To all the Dads out there, Happy Father's Day from the Rescue!
This is Weebles. He arrived as a newborn with his mom and 4 siblings. This little guy has Cerebellar Hypoplasia, a developmental condition in which the cerebellum of the brain fails to develop properly. The cerebellum is the portion of the brain that controls fine motor skills, balance, and coordination. The condition is not painful or contagious. As you can see in the video taken a few weeks ago, he does not let his condition slow him down one bit. In fact, we think it has enhanced his personality quite a lot. He and his siblings will be ready for visits and adoption in a few weeks.
