We've had three new adoptions this week - two kittens and SNOW! Yes, Snow has found a forever home. The woman who came to adopt her was very patient and sat for a long time with her in the Education Room. She talked with us a lot about how Snow was going to need time to adjust, and that she didn't mind. She was really putting Snow's needs above her own!
The two kittens being adopted created some room, so Anita has brought back Chantel and her kittens. We are bursting with kittens! We have been able to shift and pair so now have 7 full-time residents in the "out condo" section, and one cage has been designated to rotate the long-term residents in and out, to get them used to being in cages again. Lady now lives in the Education Room - hopefully this will help her to find a loving home, as she seems calmer and seeks attention now.
The memory garden is coming along - every day brings something new. I can't wait until it is finished - I haven't helped because I have a very black thumb, but I sure do appreciate all the hard work our wonderful gardeners are doing.
Remember to visit your neighbors and encourage them to spay and neuter. Did you know that Pulaski County has laws on the books stating that a person can have only two intact cats on their property? According to the law, all others must be fixed. Just canvassing my own street has resulted in 7 cats being fixed in the past six months! In addition, it affords you the opportunity to discuss trap-neuter-return and how trap-and-kill doesn't work. We have information at the shelter or visit www.alleycat.org for more information.
