Meet Frankie
Frankie - a FELV+ cat
Miss Frankie got her name for her big blue eyes.  Yeap for us older farts, she was named for old Blue eyes himself, Frank Sinatra. Frankie is a leukemia positive kitty who came to us from Animal Control in SC.  She is a very sweet kitty who has not decided how she feels about the other cats. You may watch her live 24/7 on her #meshare camera
Meet Vinnie
Vinnie is a leukemia positive kitty who came to us from animal control in Kentucky.  He is a very nice kitty who has had a very rough life.  X-rays show that he has suffered trauma to his lower extremities.  He has several vertebrae processes that have been broken, a broken leg that is healing and his other leg is going to have surgery to repair unhealed damage.  We  are guessing he was hit by a car. They are both very grateful that because of your support they get to live.
Cat Updates
Paul has lymphoma.  He is still eating, active but does seem to get tired quicker.   He is still slowly losing weight but eating.  When he lets us know it is time we will let him go.

Meet Suzanne
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well to me this one speaks volumes. Everyone that looks at this picture I am sure will see something. It might be the same thing I see or it might be something different. What I see is the purest form of love there is. The love of a person for a animal and a animal for a person, in this case a cat.  Plain and simple love. No expectations, no requirements, just love in the purest form. The person in the photo is Suzanne and the cat is Treasure. CONTINUE READING
How do I get my cat to use the litter box?
Not using a litter box is the 2nd most reason given for cats being taken to shelters.  Jackson Galaxy did a blog with 10 points for you to consider. I am going to recap them and give you the link to read the meat and potatoes. 1.  One Box per cat + 1 2. Detective work begins with a vet visit.     Cats get crystals very easily, when you take your     cat in for a check up make sure they do a     urine analysis. You may have a problem brewing     That you can catch before it becomes a problem. 3. Location, Location, Location 4. The smell of the litter    Jackson recommends The World’s Best Cat Litter.     Our personal experience is that is the nastiest litter    we have ever used and even if they sent it to us free    again  we would not want it.  Years ago we won a    contest with a prize of 5000 pounds of this litter.    The rooms smelled horrible from it. The boxes on    the cat patios developed thousands of bugs.    The cats would not use it.    5.  The feel of the litter.  6. The volume of the litter.  7. The Box itself.       We use large storage totes.  We cut the sides      down for some of the cats who have a problem      getting in and out.   8. To Lid or not to lid   9.  The angle (position) of the box. 10. Scoop the box!  They want it clean.  When       you go into a store and some one has not flushed       you go to another stall. You won’t go in if it is       dirty, why would you expect them to?       Here is the link to Jackson’s article I have a few personal comments to make. Check to see what has changed in your world. Is there an unfixed cat marking outside? Try a calming collar.  They seem to help our cats. Try  Dr. Esleys Precious Cat Attract cat litter. It is pricey but has a money back guarantee.  You can get it much cheaper at Petsmart, Petco, Pet supermarket  than at Amazon. Another one we use is Precious Cat Dr. Elsey’s Senior litter.  It is very soft like sand and helps prevent urinary infections.   You can also get it at Petsmart etc. Price wise it might be just as cheap at Amazon. How to remove Pee Smell. There are so many products that swear they remove the smell.  Here is a link to an  inexpensive method to try.  Does it work?  I have no idea. The only thing I have ever found that completely removes the smell is bleach.
Thank you so much to everyone who came to Open House! We appreciate your sharing your time with the cats.
