Happy Thanksgiving!
We hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving feast as much as Percy enjoys his Churu treats!
Let's talk about licki-mats! Licki-mats, like the one shown below, are a great way to add some fun variation to your cat's life! Add your cats favorite lick-able treat or canned food to the mat and let them do the rest. Licking can be both soothing and enriching for your cat and is an excellent way to keep them busy for a few minutes. Fisher has found that a licki-mat with some canned food is also a fun way to build confidence!
Keep checking out our page for more fun enrichment and training ideas for your feline friend!
Fisher is still available for adoption as well! If you are interested in Fisher, please contact us at [email protected].

Fisher has been our biggest transformation to date! He started out as our shy cat who stayed far away from everyone in his safe spot in the closet, and now his foster can't even do zoom calls in his room because he demands attention!
When he gets adopted, it will take him a little longer than everyone else to adjust to his new home, but we promise that if you give him that time and are extra patient, the personality that comes out at the end of the tunnel is so worth it!

It is confirmed that the way to Fisher's heart is through food!
Lickmats are a great way to switch up your cat's (or dog's) daily routine! They help extend mealtime which not only occupies them longer, but it slows down how quickly they are consuming their food. The different groves also make it more challenging for them to get all of the food out. This engagement keeps them mentally stimulated while they are eating and helps prevent against mindless snacking!
Do you do anything to change up your pets mealtime routine? Let us know in the comments!

On Saturdays we work on target training!
Kit Kat said she is happy to keep practicing if that means she gets more canned food! You can see her enjoying her reward every time she makes contact with her target. It's amazing what both cats, and dogs, can learn do when they are treat motivated and are positively reinforced!
This is only one of our favorite enrichment activities; keep an eye on our facebook for more, and feel free to reach out to [email protected] if you want any tips or tricks for working with your own cat! #BeKindLoveCats #EnrichmentSavesLives
Help us give a big round of applause to Fisher who asked for pets from him foster mom! With patience, love and some positive reinforcement training Fisher is slowly learning that people aren't so scary. We're so proud of him!
