Not a happy Monday. Caught a person trying to dump and dash their cat on a volunteer's porch. We took their 12 year old cat because we feared for her safety but we are incredibly saddened that her dog (that was in her car) is worth keeping whereas this cat is not.
Just terrified..poor girl. Abandoned after more than a decade and the owner had zero sadness or compassion rather an "it is what it is attitude".

We are helping yet another Saginaw colony of cats. Desperately trying to trap the grey and white female in pic as she is ill. We caught a handsome long-furred male that we hope will be entering out adoption program, we named Tobias. We are taking outside winter shelters, food and making sure all are fully vetted and healthy. A very nice couple cares for them and we are glad they reached out for help before more babies are born.

Thank you kind people for adopting Mimi. She was one of 40 cats we worked diligently at trapping fixing and returning some as there is a caretaker but many scared ones like Mimi entered our adoption program. We still Mimi's identical twin brother Spitz. He is the most scared of the four littermates we rescued. If you are interested in a possible foster-to-adopt of Spitz please fill out cat adoption application on our webpage and we will be in touch to see up a convenient time to meet him at his foster home. With stability, love and a calm patience person Spitz will come around and be very bonded with his special person. The time put into teaching him it is ok to trust humans will be paid back massively with a devoted forever intelligent, handsome and very playful tuxedo cat.

We are grateful for our adopters today opening their homes and hearts to a couple of our adult kitties. Thank you!

Twix (calico in front) and Montgomery (buff guy on the back right), will be there with many feline friends. Sir (orange) and Devin (black) are available for adoption through foster home visit. The two brown tabbies, MuckLuck and Chunk, are elderly permanent residents of HSoSC due to health issues requiring daily meds.
All are FIV/FeLV tested, vaccinated and fixed for $50 adoption fee. Cat adoption applications can be found on our webpage at: Humanesocietyofsaginawcounty.org
Thanks for considering adopting a loving adult. They have been let down and abandoned by people. They sincerely deserve a forever home and people to call their family. Please meet them and consider giving them a chance.
Thanks, HSoSC Volunteers

This afternoon one of our volunteers has to have their 6 year old giant fluffy Maine C**n Bruno put to sleep. He has face cancer which came on very quickly and he is having difficulty breathing and eating. In pic is Bruno just now with his bestie Eleanor. Animals definately have feelings and know what is going on.
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as losing a furry family member is so difficult

We wish we could sleep this soundly. Blind Bunny is a foster fail and lives with a HSoSC volunteer. His eyes were destroyed before rescue from a virus and he also had a broken jaw which caused his bottom canines to grow alittle crooked before he was strong enough to have this repaired. Bunny is the happiest and sweetest cat around. We had someone tell us it was cruel to keep him alive...we kindly disagree. Animals that can have quality of life should be given this opportunity.

Thank you for adopting panther Leo. Today you saved him as well as made space for us to help another.

*** PetSmart Saginaw Kitty Aoption Weekend***
This Saturday and Sunday from 12-5 pm. Come meet your new furry family member. All are tested fixed vaccinated and health guaranteed. For consideration please fill out cat adoption application at: HumaneSocietyofSaginawCounty.Org

Sweet 7 month old Mimi has been hoping that this will be her weekend to find her new family.

We have been fortunate to have the pleasure of saving some pretty amazing panthers over the last few years. Smart, loving and well worth the 9:15pm albuterol breathing treatments for one eyed Midnight. Rescue is so much work but it is our passion.

**Samara Update** Remember a good Samaritian called us about a new cat showing up where they live that has been limping for 10-14 days. Well some horrible ignorant human attempted a botched at home declaw.
Samara has finished the 84 day treatment for wet FIP. We will have vet check her blood in a few weeks to make sure she beat this dreaded virus. Thank you for the good energy and prayers they definately make a difference. Here she is rolling in catnip which she loves. She cannot enjoy a scratcher like a normal cat so this is the best we can do for her.

** Informational Post **
Our vet didn't know if Smoothie would live let alone have viable eyes. Here he is today..putting up with us for a silly picture. In addition to antibiotics, we use oral famciclovir antiviral (crush pills and syringe with water) three times daily. Famciclovir has saved many of our rescue's eyes but not all veterinarians may know about it so we wanted to share. We have not seen any negative side effects in dozens of cats and kittens which we have used this medication on over the last 6 years.

How Famciclovir Works
Famciclovir is an antiviral medication. It works by blocking the virus’s ability to make more DNA and replicate. It will not kill the viruses that are currently circulating in the body, but it can prevent the virus from replicating out of control.
Famciclovir is FDA-approved for human use. Famciclovir is currently not FDA approved as a veterinary medication. However, it is readily utilized in the veterinary field, and veterinarians can legally prescribe certain human drugs for use in animals in certain circumstances. This is called extra-label or off-label use because this use isn’t described on the drug label

We need prayers and good energy for 9 year old Chloe as she has a mammary tumor. She was used for breeding before rescued two years ago and has since been spayed but damage has been done. She deserves so much better.
Please don't get a dog if you are unable or unwilling to provide it a decent life.

Oscar wants to wish all people that love their pets like we do a wonderful Christmas.
