This week we lost Travis, one of our oldest and most notable permanent residents. If you have been to our shelter in the last decade you may have see him, like a orange traffic cone in a sea of brown tabbies.

If our resident cats had a head hancho it was Travis, who they would habitually gather around for a nap in our main free roam room. He was somewhat friendly to people, but mostly only people with treats. He taught many of our more shy cats to be a little braver and calmer about people.

He was a friend to many cats, and developed strong bonds with most of our residents. We will be watching over them closely for a while as they adjust to new reality with out him. We will all be missing his bright orange fur, and grizzled, handsome face. But we are very lucky have been able to provide hime with a place to have lived his life in love and peace.

This Feline Friday is Eevee. Eevee is around 10 years old, male, and when he came to us, fleas had stolen his pants. Now that he's gotten them back, he's looking for a nice big recliner where he can sit, watch the game on Sundays, and contemplate his mortgage. Help him remember that his best years are still ahead of him.

On this last feline Friday before black cat novelty month we'd like to highlight our adult black cats that have been waiting for homes

Eevee is still here and has grown out his fur from the fleas and neglect of his previous home. His even temper and confidence have really started to shine through his troubled past.

Bear and Bats are here still despite a video of them having 820k views on Facebook.

Bats is still particularly stressed in a shelter environment. We have done as much as we can to give them a comfortable space, but they really need a loving home.

Panther's fluffy orange sibling has gone home, but he now waits in his cage alone. Come scratch his head and rub his belly and see if you can resist the urge to let him live with you!

This Feline Friday we're featuring Kurt. We know Kurt is a girl, but honestly she is so cute the name just kind of works.

Kurt, her sister, and their kittens were brought to us by their previous owners who kept them outside and clearly did not spay. We got that taken care of, and while Kurt's sister and her kittens have been adopted, Kurt is still looking for her forever home. Kurt was absolutely terrified and completely shut down when she first came to us. It has taken time, love, and a lot of friendly hands but Kurt has finally come out of her shell and oh how sweet she is! She has been through a lot and can still be a little shy at first with strangers, but once she knows she can trust you, she is very vocal and affectionate. Please help her find her hapily forever after!

🐾Feline Friday is Panther🐾

Panther is a very standard issue black cat. Sweet, overweight, and overwhelmed at the shelter. Many potential adopters don't even know he's here because he hides in his bed all day and comes out to lounge at night.
Picture from him at his previous home show a friendly and very mellow cat who loves his cat trees. He and his pretty sister were surrendered due to housing issues and not for any fault of their own. He's lived with multiple dogs, older kids and given some time, some head scritches, and maybe some crunchy treats he'll make for a wonderful companion to binge watch your new favorite tv show.

We have lots of adult cats and not a whole lot of wet food to feed them! We could use donations of wet food, many have a preference for gravy and chunky food, but we will gladly accept any type of wet cat food. Relatedly we also have adult cats for adoption! Consider an adult cat, or if not looking to adopt consider helping feed one!

Elective declawing is inhumane.
Every major animal welfare organization opposes it, including the ASPCA, the Humane Society of the United States, and the Animal Legal Defense Fund.
Veterinary associations oppose it.
It is banned in the UK, most of the EU, most of Canada and Brazil. It is a criminal offense in Israel.
It isn't even "de-clawing" - it is AMPUTATION of each toe at the third joint.
But in the US, it is banned in just three states - New York, Maryland, and Virginia.
We support ending this horrific practice, and we hope you agree - no cat should have to lose their toes to save someone's couch.
