Thanks, Amy, a new friend from the neighborhood, who came by to pick up kitty charms for Crocs we had listed on FB Marketplace, who came bearing a new kitten-sized cat scratcher and a cute bowl! Even though she couldn't adopt (she's caring for a special needs cat with megacolon) she gave the kittens lots of love during our Sunday open hours last week.

Food is good! A rumbling purr goes out to Debra (pres. of American Cat Project, currently in Philly) who sent four big bags of Purina Naturals just before Christmas, and Jo (cat rescuer retired physically, but not in heart!) who sent four cases of Purina canned food!

Update 1/7: Big purrs to Nancy, georg, Brigid, Sarah, Gail, and Debra for helping the Benji fund, too! Update 1/3: Thank you Mary Beth, Hayya, and Gretchen D! We're about 1/3 of the way there! β™₯β™₯β™₯ Original post: THE GOOD NEWS. Benji has a home who wants to try him out. They are very animal-savvy and only have one other cat, and understand cats with long-term health issues. THE BAD NEWS - he needs a VERY expensive pre-adoption vet visit because he needs A) a radiograph of his pelvis as he never had one when his leg was amputated as the clinic who did the work didn't have one at the time. We need know if there's arthritis or bone shards that could cause the future owner problems B) a recheck on those crumpled ears of his (see him shake his head?) and C) he doesn't p*e in large amounts, so needs a urine test to be sure there's nothing going on there.

If you are able to donate to get this handsome boy out of here, I'd really, really appreciate it. If you'd prefer to give directly to the veterinary clinic where he has his appointment, let me know and I can give them a heads up. I'll put the PayPal donation link in the comments.

Like to help for free? I'm now open for visitors each and every Sunday before these kitties eat me into homelessness. They are ALL fixed, vaccinated, and there's not a sneeze in the house (knock on wood). It took a long while to get them all healthy, as they were all ill when they arrived, but they are bright-eyed and bushy tailed now.

Come for Coffee and Kittens, 1PM - 5PM! Just let me know you might stop in. When people visit, they talk about the kittens to their friends (even more than seeing them on FB) and they get homes so much faster! Bring a friend, even if they don't want to adopt!

Check out Benji's video, taken just a few minutes ago. He's ready to get outta here.

Misty and Hop Hop make me smile everyday. They really need to make someone else smile, soon, as there are 15 other kittens and cats here who need homes, too. They have no adoption fee. Come visit, decide if they match your lifestyle, and then I'll deliver to the room you have made ready for them in advance. Hop Hop is super affectionate but needs a home that will give him time to bond, and not frighten him too quickly with new things. Misty is afraid of nothing. They are both super smart and learned how to navigate the cat door to the catio the very first time they were shown it. I'd love to see them go together, because even though they aren't technically brother and sister, they've gotten each other through some really hard times. Misty is FeLV/FIV tested and Hop Hop's mom was tested, negative. Both fixed and vaccinated. Email owlhouseadopt at gmail dot com to set up an appointment to visit!

Most of our cats and kittens are up on Adoptapet.com. I'll be adding to their bios and will also get them up on Petfinder now that the photo issue there seems to be resolved. https://www.adoptapet.com/shelter/70681/available-pets/pets

12 Kittens of Christmas!

Petfinder won't load photos. Adoptapet gives an incorrect html page when you attempt to log in as a shelter. A kitten just dumped a whole bowl of water over my wrapped Christmas presents. It has not been a good morning. On the upside, even pre-adult cats are as impossibly cute as the littlest guys, even as they destroy your decorations. (and now you know why the candles here are all battery operated). Misty would love to terrorize your home instead of mine! (And she's doesn't have a shy gene in her silky fluffy body)!

12 Kittens of Christmas! πŸŽ„Lovely (but lonely) Lily lives here in the main house space, watching the snow fall and snuggling up at the foot of the bed each night. She's just over 1 year old. She loves her catio, but windows are wonderful, too, especially on a blustery winter day! πŸ’™πŸ’¨β„ Video >>

We took a few cats in need to a county rabies clinic at Stray Haven last month, and immediately got happy vibes from the artistic glow-up provided by Waverly High School artists! Check out this video I couldn't leave without taking!

How can anyone do anything but smile when they enter the parking lot of what was previously just your average nice, neat wood-and-cement block building? Spin this colorful idea off to the young artists in your community!

Sweet little Stevie is mostly blind, confirmed by a veterinarian today. If her FeLV/FIV tests come back negative, we'll have her move downstairs with us permanently, until she is adopted, so she can get used to navigating a house. She'll be our THIRD blind cat - the two previous cats got wonderful homes!
