May the Purrs Be Ever in Your Favor: Meet Katniss 👑

Big, beautiful, and completely content to take life at her own pace, Katniss is a warrior with a soft side. ❤️

This laid-back girl is low-key, independent, and happiest when she has her own space. She’s not looking for a busy household with other cats or dogs; she’d much rather have her person all to herself.

Katniss’s ideal day? You nearby, some belly rubs, and plenty of peaceful companionship. That’s her kind of happily ever after.

She could be the perfect match for an older couple or someone looking for a calm, devoted companion.

Could you be Katniss’s forever person? Learn more here:

Independent Recognition. Meaningful Impact.👇 See what that means.

Animal welfare is full of stories that tug at your heart. We get it. Those sad eyes are hard to resist. ❤️

But when you’re choosing where to give, we believe it’s important to look at the whole picture: the impact an organization is making, how it operates, and how responsibly it stewards the support it receives.

That’s why we’re especially proud of two independent, third-party recognitions:

⭐ Charity Navigator’s highest 4-Star rating
🏆 Candid’s 2026 Platinum Seal of Transparency

These recognitions provide an independent look at Planned PEThood of Georgia’s financial management, accountability, and transparency.

We’re proud to share them because we believe donors deserve more than a compelling story or a great photo. You deserve to see the bigger picture and to feel confident in the organization you choose to support.

So before you give, take a look. Ask questions. Look at the impact. Check the independent ratings.

And if you choose Planned PEThood, know that your trust means as much to us as your generosity. 🐾❤️

🖤 Double the Tuxedo, Double the Love! 🖤

Meet Patrick and Charlotte, two adorable tuxedo siblings looking for a forever home!

Patrick is a dapper little guy with a personality to match. He may be a bit shy at first, but once he settles in, his playful side shines! He loves chasing toys, leaping for wand toys, climbing the cat tree, and watching the world go by from the window. Because Patrick is such an energetic boy, he needs another playful cat in his home, and who better than his sister, Charlotte?

Charlotte has a big personality and an even bigger heart. Named in honor of the Brontë sisters, she has a touch of literary elegance - but she's much more interested in chasing toys, shadows, and shoelaces than writing novels! She is playful, affectionate, friendly, and quick to make friends with both people and other cats. When she's not busy pouncing, she loves nothing more than curling up in a warm lap.

If you're looking for double the fun, double the purrs, and double the love, Patrick and Charlotte would make a purrfect pair!

He’s Had Fleas, Lice, a Fever… and a Balloon?! 😳🎈

A few weeks ago, sweet little Louie arrived in our foster program covered in fleas and lice. We got him feeling better, and through it all, he has been nothing but an absolute sweetheart.

Then a few days ago, Louie spiked a fever, started vomiting, and developed diarrhea. We initially wondered if stress might be the culprit. Thankfully, his temperature came down, and overnight he left us a very strange “present” in his litter box.

Our vet took a closer look and discovered what it was: a balloon. 😳🎈

Thankfully, X-rays showed no balloon material remaining. Louie is eating, playing, and acting much more like himself. He is also having his neuter surgery, and we’re keeping a very close eye on this little guy as he continues on the road to recovery.

Louie’s story is also a reminder of something we don’t always get to show you: rescuing and caring for a kitten can be expensive. From medical treatment and medications to surgery, food, litter, and foster care, the cost of caring for an animal often goes far beyond the adoption fee. Adoption fees help, but they don’t cover the full cost of care.

If you’d like to help kittens like Louie get the care they need, and help us be there when the next animal arrives in need - A donation of any size makes a difference. ❤️ https://pethoodga.org/give/ -today

And please, never release balloons. What goes up eventually comes down, and for curious animals like Louie, it can become a life-threatening danger. 🎈🚫

We’re rooting for you, Louie. Keep getting better, little guy. 💙🐱
