Welcome Cessna (left) and Boeing (right) to The Sunshine Room!

These boys are brothers/littermates of Grumman and Lockheed, who were recently adopted.

Let’s hope these 2 are just as lucky to find their forever home. They can be adopted together or separately.

They’re 8 months old and fully vetted and ready for adoption. They’re shy but sweet!

A friend who works for a veterinary practice shared this cat grimace scale for determining their pain level! I never knew this!

I knew that cats suffer “silently” so many people don’t recognize their cat is actually suffering and in pain!

Cats can purr when sick, scared or in pain to self-soothe.

My Scooter would purr so loudly at checkups that the vet could barely hear his heartbeat.

Excellent tip. In the foster room, we have water bowls a little off to the side from the food, as well as a water fountain across the room.

This is an important reason to avoid using the double bowls that have food on one side and water on the other. Separate the food from the water. In most cases, just sliding the food bowl away so it's not right next to the food is adequate, but for some cats, they would prefer the water be on the other side of the room. It also helps to have water bowls stationed in several locations around the house so your cat can choose. And, don't forget to wash water bowls daily and refill with fresh water.

My Great Dane, Wilma, with some of my fosters

This is my absolute favorite video of my Great Dane, Wilma, meeting one of my foster cats for the 1st time.

Anderson was so outgoing! I started recording the minute I let Anderson into the hallway.

I’ve not had a cat since him who immediately took to my dog like that.

Just did some spring cleaning in The Sunshine Room.

Can you tell I have 5 foster cats (4 adults and 1 kitten) in the room? They love to hide and be cozy, especially when I’m sweeping.

Pew Pew was adopted yesterday!

Update: ADOPTED

Meet Pew Pew

🧡 Very affectionate
🧡 Lap cat
🧡 Curious
🧡 Playful
🧡 10 months old
🧡 Fully vetted

Pew Pew is available for adoption through Friends of Feline Urban Rescue & Rehab near Easton, PA and is being fostered in Warren County, NJ.

Named for the sound of his meow as a kitten - like a little laser gun - Pew Pew is very affectionate and playful.

Background: In the summer of 2023, little Pew Pew was placed with another singleton kitten in a loving foster home. They became fast friends and learned to be cats together. They got along great with each other and the resident cats in the home, where they had free reign of the house.

First Foster Home: Pew Pew lived in his first foster home from then until mid-January. His foster dad said of his time there: Pew Pew is possibly the most cuddly cat - he loves cuddling and being petted. He will give head bonks to show he wants attention and affection. He wants to know what you are doing at all times. Pew Pew loves trying to play with everything and testing the gravity of objects. He is amazed at water dripping from the faucet.

Current Foster Home: In mid-January 2024, he moved to a new foster home where he is confined to the foster room with several other cats. This was a HUGE change for Pew Pew and he was very scared and would constantly growl and go after the other cats for the first week.

Within 2 weeks, he had calmed down and was so much better! Even when he first arrived, he was immediately affectionate with his new foster mom and would purr, rub against things, and do head bonks.

Other cats: Pew Pew had done great with the other cats in his first foster home. We expect he'll calm down here even more given time. Plus, considering that he's confined to a single room with several other cats, he's doing well. He will still swat them sometimes and want to wrestle because he is young and energetic. We will test him around the foster home’s dogs soon.

Fully vetted: He has been neutered, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, dewormer and flea treated (he’s wearing a calming collar, not a flea collar), and even microchipped!

Give Pew Pew a Chance: Transitions can be hard for many cats. We would love to see Pew Pew adopted by a patient person or family who will give him time to acclimate to his new surroundings with a proper, slow introduction to the household, especially other pets. In return, he will give you all his love and affection.

This is just what I needed today! Pics and an update from Tucker’s adopter. He was adopted less than 2 weeks ago!

Edited to add: also she did a proper, slow introduction!

Great job by Mike Reenock for helping Tucker be the sweetheart he is.

Tucker’s new mom says:

“Tucker update: He's been introduced to the dog. They have become nap buddies. Tucker enjoys his new cat tree where he can look out the window. He has 2 new kicker toys that he enjoys playing with in addition to his paper balls. We did a nail trim which he did fabulous with and was rewarded with treats.”

Cats should have access to multiple litterboxes.

Here Pew Pew joins Squeaky even though there’s a fresh box right next to him, plus 2 other boxes in the room. 😂
