🌑✨ MEET ECLIPSE — YOUR PERSONAL SOLAR EVENT! ✨🌑
Available for Adoption • Apply at www.stsff.com

Looking for a cat who believes gravity is optional and your back is a perfectly acceptable mountaintop?
Meet Eclipse — our sleek black bobtail explorer who treats humans like jungle gyms and rooms like racetracks.

Just look at this little shadow gremlin:
📸 One minute she’s posed like an angelic supermodel…
📸 And the next she’s standing on someone’s head like she’s claiming her territory.
(She insists this is normal. We don’t argue with her.)

🔥 ABOUT ECLIPSE
This fearless girl has endless kitten energy and a big love for adventure. She zooms. She climbs. She investigates every nook like a tiny, adorable FBI agent.

She was found crying inside a drain pipe, rescued, and instantly decided life was for living BIG. Now thriving in foster, she:
✔️ Gets along with cats
✔️ Gets along with dogs
✔️ Gets along with kids
✔️ Gets along with gravity… mostly

She’ll follow you around, hop onto your shoulders, and brighten your day with nonstop antics and cuddles. Eclipse is pure joy in cat form — bold, playful, outgoing, and always ready for fun.

If you’ve been waiting for a cat who doubles as:
💫 A personal trainer
💫 A shoulder parrot
💫 A comedian
💫 A professional zoomie athlete

…this is your girl. 🖤

👉 Apply to adopt Eclipse at www.stsff.com
Bring home your very own celestial event — she’ll brighten your whole universe. 🌙💫

📢 Sad News, Friends — No Happy Meowlidays This Year 💔🐾

We’re so sad to announce that we won’t be hosting our Annual Happy Meowlidays event this year. With everything our shelter has been navigating recently, we’re continuing to be extra cautious — especially when it comes to bringing large groups of people and animals together in our space. We also explored alternate locations, but unfortunately couldn’t secure one that met our needs.

Thank you all for being so understanding and for standing by us through all these hiccups. We’ll definitely miss seeing all of your familiar faces and sharing the holiday cheer with you.

But we do hope to see lots of you at our upcoming fundraiser at Hamburger Mary’s on 12/7! 💜🐱 It’s always a blast and we’d love to kick off the season with your support.

Thank you for loving our cats — and us — through it all. 💕

🍁 Happy Thanksgiving from St. Sophia’s! 🍁

These past few weeks have really shown us just how much we have to be grateful for at St. Sophia’s — and wow, it’s a lot.

💛 Our Fundraising Team for kicking into high gear and pulling brilliant ideas out of thin air to help us crawl out of this black hole of medical expenses. (NASA should honestly take notes.)

💛 Kelly, for somehow bending the rules of time and space to be everywhere, all at once, providing round-the-clock medical care. Middle of the night? Early morning? Random o’clock? She’s already there.

💛 Joan and Reggie (and so many others!) for cleaning until their bodies threaten to file a complaint. Truly the unsung heroes who keep this place running and sanitary enough for even the pickiest cat.

💛 Kaylyn, who is on top of applications and adoptions like it’s an Olympic sport — getting our healthy babies home so fast they don’t even have time to mess up their condos.

💛 Heather and Matt, for fixing literally everything and installing an entire lighting system so maybe—just maybe—we won’t break an ankle in the parking lot this winter. (We like our volunteers upright.)

And finally…

💛 YOU.
Our community. You’ve come through in ways we never could have imagined. Your donations, your messages, your kindness — we absolutely couldn’t have made it through these last few weeks without you. You carried us when we were running on fumes, and we are endlessly, overwhelmingly grateful.

There are so many more people we could thank by name, but Facebook still has a character limit and I’m pretty sure you don’t want to read a novel today. You know who you are. You know what you’ve done. And we hope you know how eternally grateful we are for you.

From our whole team — two-legged and four-legged — Happy Thanksgiving. 🧡

🎄📸 Cicada & Shiloh’s Official Holiday Photoshoot Announcement! 🎅🐾

These two festive little elves would like to formally inform you that they worked VERY hard on their holiday photoshoot this year.

Shiloh said, “I will tolerate exactly ONE hat with pom-pom ears if it helps us get adopted together.”
Cicada said, “I put on a whole Santa suit. A whole suit. I think we’ve earned a forever home.”

They’re hoping their modeling debut convinces you that they absolutely, definitely, 100% belong together in a home where they can spend their first holidays curled up with their humans. ❤️

If you’ve been waiting for a sign… THIS IS IT.

🐾 November is Senior Adoption Month! 🧡

Meet Ned, our sweet 14-year-old gentleman who is dreaming of a warm, loving forever family to call his own.

Ned may start off a little timid, but once he feels safe, he becomes the most affectionate, clingy lovebug. He adores attention, wet food, and curling up right beside his person. He’s fully vaccinated, neutered, and so ready for his next chapter.

If you’ve been thinking about opening your heart to a senior — this is your sign. Ned deserves a soft place to land. Could that be with you?

🎉 WE’RE THAT CHARITY ON DECEMBER 7! 🎉
(Yes… the charity. The chosen ones. The lucky ducks. The cat-covered Chosen Ones. 😼✨)

We are over the moon to be the featured charity at Hamburger Mary’s on December 7, and honestly… after the month we’ve had? We could ALL use a night of laughter, drag, games, and good company.

If you’ve ever wanted to support St. Sophia’s while also yelling “YASSS” at a bingo board, THIS is your moment. 🌙💅🍔🐾

Bring your friends, your sense of humor, and that one person who swears they “never win anything” at bingo (their luck always changes at Mary’s). 😉

We hope to see as many of you there as possible — let’s fill the room with cat people, good vibes, and maybe a few victory dances. 🕺🐱

🎟️ Save the date: December 7
💜 Hamburger Mary’s – STSFF Charity Night
🎉 It’s going to be a VERY good time!
