πŸ±πŸ’• FRIDAY CAT OF THE DAY: MEET ZOEY! πŸ’•πŸ±

We know, we know… Cat of the Week is usually a Monday thing! But our featured kitty this week found their forever home just THREE HOURS after we posted! πŸŽ‰

So we figured, why not give it another go and spread a little extra adoption magic this Friday?! ✨🐾

🌸 Meet Zoey! 🌸

Born on January 8, 2020, Zoey is a beautiful, sweet and affectionate girl who is more than ready to find her forever family! She is spayed, fully vetted and has SO much love to give. πŸ’—

This girl has truly never met a stranger! Zoey loves absolutely everyone she meets. Whether she's greeting visitors, rubbing against your legs asking for attention or curling up next to you for a cozy nap, she's happiest when she's surrounded by love.

πŸ₯° A few things to know about Zoey:

πŸ’• She's a total sweetheart and snuggle buddy!

🐾 She loves people and making new friends.

🐱 She would do well with other friendly felines.

🏑 She's ready to fill someone's home with cuddles, purrs and unconditional love!

And while Zoey is our star today, she's certainly not the only one waiting for a home!

🚨 Our shelter is STILL at maximum cat capacity! 🚨

We have so many wonderful cats and kittens, each with their own personality, just waiting for someone to give them a chance. From playful youngsters to laid-back cuddle bugs, bonded pairs and everything in between, there's truly a feline friend for everyone! πŸˆπŸˆβ€β¬›

If you've been thinking about adopting, NOW is the perfect time! Not only will you gain a wonderful companion, but you'll also help us make room for another animal in need. ❀️

🏑 COME MEET OUR CATS TODAY!

πŸ“… Friday, TODAY!
⏰ 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM
πŸ“ Eastshore Humane Association

Stop by during our open cat viewing hours, meet Zoey and spend some time getting to know all of our adoptable kitties!

πŸ’› How to Adopt:
Visit www.eastshoreha.org to fill out an adoption application. With an approved application, same-day adoptions are possible!

Even if you can't adopt right now, sharing this post can help Zoey and her friends find the families they've been waiting for. 🐾

Let's see if we can make another Friday adoption happen! πŸ€žπŸ’•πŸ±

🀍🐾 Thankful Thursday: Missie’s Happy Tail!

Some animals find their forever homes right away, while others need a little extra time for the right person to see just how special they are. Today, we’re celebrating one of those special souls β€” Missie, now known as Penny! πŸ₯Ή

Missie came to Eastshore Humane Association as a transfer from another rescue. She was a shy girl who often watched her friends find their forever homes while she quietly waited for her turn. She wasn’t always sure how to say hello or show people the wonderful personality hiding beneath that timid exterior. But we knew Missie deserved her chance, too. As a life-saving shelter, we promised to stand beside her and give her the time she needed. 🐾

And then came Pam. ❀️

Sometimes, the perfect match is worth waiting for, and that’s exactly what happened! Pam saw something special in Missie, and now Missie β€” or rather, Penny β€” is settling into her new life and growing more attached to her person every day!

Pam shared that Penny is gentle and meek, but also lots of fun and funny! She even sent us a picture so we could see for ourselves that Penny is happy, healthy, and so very loved. Nothing makes our hearts happier than knowing one of our animals is finally home. 🏑

Penny, your journey may have taken a little longer than some, but you were always worth the wait. We hope your days are filled with comfort, laughter, love, and all the little things that make life wonderful. You never had to be the boldest or the first to get noticed β€” you just needed your person to find you. And she did! πŸ₯ΉπŸ±

Thank you, Pam, for seeing the beauty in Penny and giving her the loving home she always deserved! And thank you to everyone who supports Eastshore Humane Association and makes it possible for us to stand beside animals who need a little extra time to find their happily ever after.

Every animal deserves a chance. Every animal deserves love. And every animal is worth the wait

Happy Thankful Thursday from all of us at Eastshore Humane Association! 🀍🐾

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ± CAT OF THE DAY: AMERICA! πŸ±πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

❀️ The last of his litter and still waiting for his happily ever after! ❀️

Meet America, one of the sweetest, snuggliest little guys you'll ever meet! πŸ₯ΉπŸ’•

America and his siblings came to Eastshore Humane Association after their mom was tragically found deceased. As tiny, vulnerable kittens, they needed round-the-clock care just to survive. β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

Thanks to lots of love and care, those tiny babies grew into happy, healthy kittens and one by one, America's siblings found their forever homes.

Now America is the very last one left of his litter and we can't figure out why, because this boy is absolutely PURR-FECT! πŸ₯Ήβ€οΈ

🐾 America is a total people-loving sweetheart! 🐾

This little guy absolutely ADORES attention. He loves being picked up, held, cuddled and snuggled and his little purr motor seems to be running nonstop! πŸ₯°

He's the kind of kitten who just wants to be wherever his people are, soaking up every bit of love he can get. If you're looking for a little companion who will happily curl up in your arms and purr his heart out, America might just be your perfect match! πŸ’•

πŸŽ‚ Born approximately April 22, 2026

βœ… Neutered

βœ… Fully vetted

❀️ Full of love and ready for his forever home!

As with all kittens, we recommend adopting in pairs or into a home with another friendly feline companion. Having a kitty friend gives them someone to play, learn and grow with! 🐱🐱

America has already overcome so much in his short life. He's watched all his siblings head off to their forever homes and now it's finally his turn! 🏑❀️

πŸˆπŸ’• COME MEET AMERICA TODAY! πŸ’•πŸˆ

We're having OPEN CAT VIEWING TODAY from 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM!

Stop by Eastshore Humane Association to meet America, his feline friends and all the other wonderful cats waiting for homes!

🏠 Thinking about adopting? Please apply online at eastshoreha.org before stopping by! Having an approved application on file allows for same-day adoptions.

Even if you aren't looking to adopt right now, please SHARE America's story! Somewhere out there is a family who needs this sweet, purring little lovebug just as much as he needs them. ❀️

🚨🐱 WE ARE AT MAX CAPACITY – OUR CATS NEED YOUR HELP! 🐱🚨

Our cat kennels are FULL. And when we say full, we mean completely FULL! πŸ’”

Eastshore Humane Association has officially reached maximum capacity for cats and unfortunately, this means we are unable to accept any additional strays or owner surrenders at this time.

We simply do not have the space to take in another cat until we can find loving homes for some of the wonderful ones already in our care.

❀️ And that's where YOU come in! ❀️

We have SO many incredible cats just waiting for someone to give them a chance!

🐾 Playful, mischievous kittens who will keep you entertained all day!

🐾 Adorable bonded pairs who are hoping to find their forever homes together!

🐾 Sweet adult cats who would love nothing more than a cozy couch and someone to love!

🐾 Social butterflies who would make wonderful companions for other friendly cats!

🐾 Shy sweethearts, cuddle bugs, independent little personalities and everything in between!

All ages, all sizes, all colors and ALL kinds of personalities! πŸˆπŸˆβ€β¬›

Whether you're looking for a playful kitten, a pair of best friends or a laid-back adult companion, chances are we have someone who would be a perfect fit for your family. ❀️

πŸ“Έ Take a look at the attached photos and videos. This is just a glimpse of how full our kennels are right now. Behind every kennel door is a cat waiting for a home of their own.

And while we love every single one of them, a shelter is not where they're meant to spend their lives. They deserve windows to watch birds through, warm beds to curl up in, toys scattered across the floor and families who love them. πŸ‘πŸ’•

πŸ±πŸ’• COME MEET OUR CATS! πŸ’•πŸ±

We offer OPEN CAT VIEWING every week!

πŸ“… Mondays: 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM

πŸ“… Fridays: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM

Can't make it during those hours? No problem! ❀️

We understand that everyone's schedule is different and we don't want that to stop you from meeting your potential new best friend!

Our team is generally at the shelter every day between approximately 8:00 AM and 4:00PM and we're more than happy to accommodate visits outside our regular viewing hours whenever possible!

πŸ’Œ Just send us a message ahead of time with the day and time that works best for you and we'll do our best to arrange a visit!

πŸ™ WE NEED OUR COMMUNITY'S HELP!

If you've been thinking about adopting a cat, now is an incredible time to come meet our residents. Every adoption doesn't just change one cat's life - it also opens up a much-needed space so we can eventually help another animal in need.

And if you can't adopt right now, PLEASE SHARE THIS POST! You never know who on your friends list might be looking for their new best friend.

We know we can't find homes for everyone overnight, but with our community's help, we can start getting these kennels emptied and our cats into the loving homes they deserve.

❀️ Help us turn FULL kennels into FULL hearts and happy homes! ❀️

πŸ±πŸ’• Happy Global Cat Day! πŸ’•πŸ±

Today is all about celebrating our feline friends and spreading awareness about the countless cats who are still waiting for a safe, loving place to call home. 🏑❀️

Here at Eastshore Humane Association, every cat has a story. Some came to us as strays, some were surrendered through no fault of their own and others have been patiently waiting far too long for someone to give them a chance.

Whether they're playful kittens, cuddly lap cats, shy little sweethearts or independent personalities, they all deserve the same thing: a loving home and a family to call their own. 🐾

And what better way to celebrate Global Cat Day than by spending some time with the wonderful cats in our care?!

🐈 OPEN CAT VIEWING TODAY! 🐈

πŸ•› 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM

Come visit, meet our adorable adoptable cats, give them some love and maybe even meet your new best friend! ❀️

Even if you're not looking to adopt right now, stopping by, sharing our posts or helping spread the word can make a difference for these deserving kitties.

Let's celebrate Global Cat Day by showing some extra love to the cats who need it most! πŸ±πŸ’•
