Good news, folks: we're back.

Turns out it was a slightly loose cable that somehow let the computer talk to the modem, AT&T talk to the modem remotely, but not let us use the Internet or phones or collect card payments.

So that was a fun four hours.

As far as we can tell, we'll be normal tomorrow.

Only one in there as you are seeing the reflection in the alcohol. But remember: if it is above 40 F outside, fleas and ticks are active.

MK is looking for her FOREVER home, or foster home. She has been returned at no fault of her own a few times. She would do best in a home alone, or with a laid back male cat that lets her have her space, no dogs. She would love to lay on someones lap or follow them around all day. She is sassy and opinionated, but what true Calico i'snt. She has been in boarding for a little over 6 months now. She really needs her person.

Meet MK, an Adult Female Calico & Domestic Short Hair currently available for adoption at 4 Stray Paws Rescue. Could this be your new best friend? Learn more and apply today!

⭐️ FOSTER FOUND, STAY TUNED FOR THEM TO GO UP FOR ADOPTION ⭐️

🐾💔 **Scooby & Daphne Need a Soft Place to Land** 💔🐾

Three years ago, in **October 2022**, brother and sister **Scooby and Daphne** were adopted together into what they thought would be their forever home. Sadly, life changed when a boyfriend moved into the household… and suddenly there “wasn’t room” for them anymore. Just like that, the family they trusted surrendered them. 💔

These two are **bonded siblings** and have been through a lot together, so they are looking for a **foster home where they can stay together** and start to feel safe again. Right now they are **boarding in a kennel**, and while the staff cares for them, what they really need is **consistency, comfort, and a calm home environment** 🏡🐱🐱.

**Scooby** is the social butterfly of the pair 🧡. He’s **very friendly** and already seeking out **cuddles, pets, and human attention**. He’s ready to love again and can’t wait to show someone just how sweet he is.

His sister **Daphne** is a little more tender-hearted 💕. She’s been hurt by the change and is **looking to trust again**, but she just needs **time, patience, and a gentle person** to help her feel safe. With the right home, she will absolutely blossom.

✨ What they need right now:
• A **foster home together** 🤝
• **Patience and consistency**
• Someone willing to help them remember what love from a person feels like again ❤️

If you have **space in your home or your heart**, you could be the stepping stone that helps Scooby and Daphne get back on the path to their **true FOREVER home**.

Please **reach out to us** if you can help these two sweet souls. They would do **so much better outside of the kennel** with someone who can give them the stability they deserve. 🐾💕

We are back up and running. Phones are good.

Hey folks, Internet is down for the clinic.

And with no Internet that means no phone since we switched to Weave. Unfortunately, we can't communicate with dozens of you through Facebook; that isn't realistic.

We will update you as the situation changes.
