The Cat House

10/21/2026

Chelsey B and family rescued a 3 month old kitten laying near the street close to the football stadium in Port Clinton 4 days ago. She brought the kitten to The Cat House yesterday (Tuesday). She weighed in at 3 pounds, was given worm meds, had her ears cleaned for ear mites, was flea treated, and got terramycin in her eyes. We gave her a "starter package" of a litter box, litter, a scooper, bowls for food and water, a placemat, a few cat toys and a scratching post. We will provide these services and items for anyone who takes in a stray kitty or kitties into their home to care for and love the kitty or kitties. We do not charge for this. We want to see more people rescue kitties and give them indoor furever homes!

A BIG thank you to Josh and Emily S. Josh and I worked together before I retired. They have 2 spoiled and very loved kitties at home. They brought us 2 buckets of Tidy Cat clumpable litter, some Temptation treats, and two cute cat toys. We really appreciate anyone and everyone who helps us with the needs of our residents!

We received a big canister of Churo treats and Friskies California crunch treats from Stephanie. Stephanie contacted us in June about kitties in her neighborhood. Her neighbor, Mary, quickly learned how to trap and transport to the vet for spay/neuter. Stephanie got the first female, and Mary got EIGHT more kitties since July!! April and her group have assisted very much the entire time. This is what good teamwork does to prevent more homeless kitties from being born! If you would like to be trained to trap and the details of getting kitties fixed, let us know! This group of gals and a few guys are continuing to make a difference by caring for the kitties and preparing warm shelters for them for the upcoming winter, (One kitten did get adopted into a wonderful indoor home!)

It was great to see fellow cat lovers, Stephanie and DeeDee yesterday. Stephanie recently took in 2 five week old kittens, so we were able to get worm meds, ear mite solution, and terramycin eye ointment ready for her for her new babies! DeeDee and I have been friends for 14 years. and we love cats. There are kittens looking for homes and many adult cats, too. Please consider opening your home and heart to a kitty or two waiting for someone to care for them and love them!

Happy fall to everyone! The Cat House is still in need of Tidy Cat clumping litter in buckets with the gray lid or the aqua colored lid. We try to stock up to last until the end of the year. Can you help us out? We have been lucky to have around 5 people send litter our way, but we go thru it with the 9 residents we have. Also, we still need volunteers to come to show love and attention to the residents. We accept anyone who might need community service hours for school or the court system. If you have an hour to spare, please come to see us!

There are some kittens (4-5 months old) looking for safe indoor homes ASAP. They are near Casa Palmas and the hotel on route 53 near route 2 ...Wilma Lochotski has posted photos of them if you can help!

Wow..Coby and Lisa worked for 3 1/2 hours moving everything in the big cat room to wash the walls from top to bottom. We took a short break to brush the cats and give them Churo treats. Coby even got to pet Calypso, our scardy cat. This is hard work, and I was whooped. Coby is only 20 years old, so he likely didn't feel the after effects like I did...lol. So, the only remaining room left to wash walls is the office. If you have time, come to visit the kitties...they yearn for attention and treat/play time.

Thank you to Jaci and Kevin and kitties, Soup and Alex for two buckets of Tidy Cat clumpable litter!! We would like to stock up to at least 12 buckets to try to last thru the end of 2026. We mix it with low quality litter to make it last. Also, DeDe and Paul dropped off 2 bottles of Clorox bleach as Coby and I will be back at it washing interior walls all day on Saturday. We mix Fabuloso with an odor control liquid specifically for cats with clorox and water. We hand wash the walls from top to bottom before winter arrives. This is hard work, and Mary and Ann did most of it last year. We still ask for volunteers to stop in to play with the cats, brush them, and show them love. They get so lonely and just wait for anyone to stop by. Thank you to all of our volunteers, supporters, and donators. We could not do this without you!!
