I've always loved all kinds of "critters" as far back as my memory goes! Ever since I was a toddler, I've cared for all kinds of pets including fish, turtles, cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits--with as many as 11 critters at a time. I volunteered for several years at a Wildlife Rehabilitation center in Illinois, where I fed and handled everything from chimney swifts and squirrels to fawns, raccoons,

and foxes. After years in the travel industry, I started Pawprints of Richmond, a small boutique health store in Ilinois, that offered "Holistic Solutions for Pets & People." My 11 pets were my "highly-paid panel of testers" for homemade and premium pet foods, treats, toys, supplements, and flower essences. During my 20+ years of operating Pawprints, I earned my Certificate in Holistic Pet Nutrition, Certificate of Nutritional Counseling, and Certificate of Naturopathic Studies, and I attended many seminars presented by veterinarians like Dr. Karen Becker, DVM, and many other specialists. I simultaneously shared this knowledge with clients to help address health and behavioral issues in their pets, and I had a loyal following. I also studied, recommended, and wrote my dissertation on Flower Essence Therapy after witnessing its considerable benefits personally, and with clients and their pets. Before moving to Western North Carolina, I worked for a superfood company for which I attended many AHVMA and other holistic health-related conferences and lectures. I also began pet-sitting for local clients. Still traveling for work after moving to Lake Toxaway in 2018, I saw the need for reliable and experienced pet-sitting and related services so I established "Toxaway Holistic Pet Care & more" in late 2022. I truly enjoy working with people and putting their minds at ease when they leave their pets in my care! My three wonderful kitties--P-Nut, Jazz, and Hobo--are spoiled rotten and yet "allow" me the flexibility to help local clients with their pets' needs.

*Other, non-pet-related, services include home visits when you're away, taking in mail/packages, and some local errands . . . just ask and I'll let you know if I can help you out!

HERO PET SPOTLIGHT: LIAM – Liam does, indeed, have a very particular set of skills. Those skills include snuggling on the couch. Watching television with his humans. Liking cats and not minding dogs. No, those aren’t the skills of Liam Neeson the movie star. Those are the skills of Liam the CHHS shelter cat.

We know Liam has those skills because he spent some time with one of our awesome foster parents. There are so many reasons why we love our foster parents, especially because of the space it frees up at our no-kill shelter to rescue another animal in need. But we also love our fosters because these amazing folks give us important insight into the behavior of a shelter pet in a home environment. Because most of our rescued pets are former strays, like Liam, we don’t have any information about their household temperament.

It was through Liam’s foster parents that we learned about his love for couch snuggling and television watching. Liam is a 3-year-old handsome grey kitty who we originally rescued last year after he was found as a stray in Highlands. He is a complete and total sweetheart. Liam seems to be happy around other animals but he is equally content being the only four-legged member of the home.

As a longer-term resident CHHS Hero Pet, the adoption fee for Liam is only $50 which includes already being neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Give this kitty a forever home and Liam will bring his very particular set of skills for love and affection into your life.

HERO PET SPOTLIGHT: ALFIE – We rescued handsome two-year-old Alfie in April after he was found wandering as a stray in Highlands. Staff refers to Alfie as “a big baby”, a feline who adores other cats, kittens, and any human with a loving, gentle touch. Alfie prefers a quiet, subdued environment in a home with companions who will give him the unconditional love he deserves and so freely gives in return.

As a longer-term resident CHHS Hero Pet, the adoption fee for Alfie is only $50 which includes already being neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, tested negative for FeLV, FIV and heartworms, a free starter bag of food, and a free ID tag. To show Alfie what it’s all about 😉 please click on the adoption application link below or email us at [email protected] for more information.

TILLY is a 12-year-old beauty 😻 in need of a new home. Her person died 😿 and a family member lovingly took her and her kitty roommate in, but she is bullied by a resident cat 😼 and would be happier in a cat-free home, or perhaps a home with a laid-back senior cat😺. Tilly can also be bossy with other cats😾, so it all hinges on cat dynamics!

If you have a suitable home for Tilly and would like to foster-to-adopt, please complete an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/NAPS/Cat 🙏🏻
