So, lots going on! Shammy has an approved application and is now at the Shelter. Her new mom is excited about getting her! When they met on Wednesday afternoon Shammy's left eye was red and a bit irritated. Her mom still wanted her and we told her we would have Shammy see the vet before making arrangements for her to go home. We brought her back to the Shelter and had her examined by our veterinarian. By the time she saw the vet her eye already looked better. We were told it is a chronic condition that may flare up under stress. New mom was advised and happy to hear she was ok and will be picking her up from the Shelter on Sunday.
Blue was transferred to Animal Adoption Center in Lindenwald. As I often say...sometimes a change in venue is the best thing for a cat or dog. Blue is a wonderful cat and is in good hands.
Simba just was not happy and not doing well at PetSmart so we brought him back.
While cleaning this morning Brianne met people very interested in Coco. We did speak to them by telephone and advised them to get an application to the Shelter and we would get processing!
So...who is now there? Three new arrivals...Starburst, Sprinkles and Powder.
Powder is pretty five year old gray female. She is a very affectionate girl who spent all of her time outside. A neighbor complaint led to her being trapped and brought to the Shelter. She was spayed at intake.

Skittles and Starburst are littermates and are about four years old. They originally came in at about three months old in December of 2011. In August of 2012 they were adopted. As we see more often then we would like, they were returned late May of this year following the birth of a child. One of the cats started to not use the litterbox AND the new baby is allergic. The family stated that Skittles was marking in the house and that Starburst did not make mistakes. What we observed is that Skittles can sometimes bully Starburst about the litterbox and Starburst makes mistakes! Sometimes what happens with a new baby is that the cats are no longer cared for in the same manner. They no longer get attention and perhaps the box is not kept as clean. We would like to see these two stay together as they co-habitated without incident prior to the baby being born.

I was told that we need more of the smaller litterboxes for cats that are in single cubbies. They will be brought down.
Just a reminder...adoption fee on all cats for the month of June is $10.
Brown paper... Four rolls of paper are presently at the adoption center. Cindy D will continue to cut paper and I will make contact with her and see when this can be accomplished. I think she is out of town for a bit. She is not on the schedule again for two weeks. I know it is a hassle however it is not forever...I promise...but should you need some pieces there are rolls available to be cut.
Look ahead at July and let me know your availability.
Thanks, all!!
