The Scratching Post Cat Shelter

10/22/2026

For every cat-lover who has an allergy, there's a solo cat who wants to be your one and only. And with the help of Purina ProPlan's Live Clear food, we are making that an option.
We currently have 3 cats who are eating the Live Clear food, and what it does is stop the cats from producing the Fel-d-1 protein in their saliva, which gets on their fur whenever they groom. It's 47% effective*!
Right now, we only have our cats who Do Not Like other animals, cats or dogs, but loves a good human cuddle on this food, in hopes it will give the cats the best chance of finding their purrfect someone!
