Update on Red

Red had a full vetting on Monday and it looks like he is going to be ok. He has large wounds and scabs over most of his body, but the vet was able to shave and clean them out. He's about 15 lbs and he will make a great cat for someone.

Injured cat

This gorgeous orange male just found his way to us Saturday night (1/16). He has a serious injury on his head that will be evaluated on Monday. Unfortunately, his condition is far too common for cats who are abandoned. He was clearly someone's cat at some point, because he is super friendly. But, he's been outside during the freezing temps.


He wants everyone to know that he is a lover, not a fighter. He will be interviewing for a warm bed and some catnip shortly.

Goats for Cats!

Come out to hear The Ruthless Goats at the Iron Post on Saturday, January 30th from 6-9pm. Proceeds benefit CatSnap! See our Facebook event page.

Phoebe and Lila

CATsNAP alums 'pretending' that they don't like each other. Phoebe (maine coon) was trapped outside in a bad part of town and is around 10 years old. She is missing a few teeth and has an old foot injury from her time outside. Lila was trapped at a trailer park outside of town and was very sick when we first got her. They are both very lucky to be inside and well cared for.

Jonesie!!!

This just can't be the most comfortable position to fall asleep....

Bogey

No, this isn't a thinner Jonesie. This is golf cat, Bogey. A CATsNAP volunteer found him a few weeks ago after he had been abandoned at a local golf course. He's now warm, well-fed and neutered (hooray!).

I've been watching him for the last few days until his foster mom comes back from vacation. I love this cat!! I'm really hoping that someone will adopt him soon, 'cause I'm really liking me some Bogey. I've gotten quite attached to him. He loves to snuggle, loves other cats and dogs and is an all-around awesome cat.

Seriously, will someone please adopt this cat?

Resolutions for 2010

Jonesie wanted me to share his 2010 resolutions with everyone:

1. Lose those last stubborn 5 lbs

2. Find an awesome home

3. Nap more

So far, he's lost a 1/2 lb and continues to moniter his caloric intake. He had blood work last week to make sure his thyroid and blood sugar were at normal levels, and we're happy to report that he's as healthy as can be. He just needs a home. He gets along well with other cats and dogs, but not with very young children. He is front-declawed and has good litter box habits.

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a safe and fun celebration last night. We moved all the cats from the Petsmart adoption center and into foster homes. 2009 was a successful and productive year for us and I am hoping for an even busier 2010! If volunteering is on your list of resolutions, consider volunteering for us! We always need people to foster, clean cages at Petsmart and trap feral cats.

We have an adorable special needs cat, 'Wiggles' that is looking for a forever home. She has a condition known as Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), also known as 'wobbly kitten syndrome.' It is not contagious and there is no cure (however, it does not get worse with age). It is generally caused from exposure to a viral infection (such as feline panleukopenia), poisoning or malnutrition during fetal development. She has a very mild form of the disease and she should lead a long, healthy life. She is very playful and gets along well with other cats.
