What to do with that friendly cat that keeps showing up and doesn’t have a microchip? Rehome them, find a rescue or shelter, adopt them yourself? Leave them outside?

Stop! Maybe kitty already has someone invested in caring for them or trying to find care for them.

Try the paper collar trick. Just what it sounds like. Cut a piece of paper to collar size. Write your phone number and message on the collar. Tape it around the cat’s neck. Your message could be as simple as “Do I need a home?”

It’s a lot easier to find the best solution for a cat when you have the facts.

You may have to try this multiple times since collars come off.

And of course if kitty isn’t fixed, get them fixed😹

Please remember us when you're gathering up your returnables. We wouldn't be able to help you if you didn't help us.

And for that we appreciate you!🐾
