"Pet of the Month - ORSON"
Meet Orson!  He’s an incredibly sweet, adorable, orange and white big kitty with a beautiful long coat, gorgeous markings, super cute paws and a fluffy tail! He is full of energy and loves to play with every toy imaginable. He is great with the other cats in his foster home.  In addition, he is a dream in a car, no small feat for a feline. As charming and lovable as they come, you will fall in love instantly with this personality-plus fluffball! 

Orson is a "leftover" summer kitten with a digestive condition that requires daily medication at a cost of approx. $13/mo.  We have held him back from adoption until we made sure he was healthy.  He has been thoroughly worked up medically and is now perfectly managed on the medication, and is a normal happy playful kitty in every way.  His medication Cisapride is used in cats as a gastrointestinal (GI) motility stimulant. It helps to increase the smooth muscle contractions in the stomach and intestines, moving food and waste materials through the digestive tract more effectively. Right now he is also on a sensitive stomach kitten food, but he may be able to transition off of that as he matures into an adult.   

Orson's approximate date of birth is 4-27-25, and his adoption fee of $100 includes: vet exams, Feleuk/FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccinations, rabies vaccination, dewormings, microchip and neuter, in addition to his GI workup and specialty consultations.  In consideration of his future medication expense, we have reduced his normal adoption fee by half, and if you adopt him we will pay for his medication for the first year.

So this Special kitty is looking for a Special person or family that has the nature and the means to take extra good care of him, making sure he gets his daily medication and regular annual or semi-annual vet checkups.  In return, he will reward you in so many ways with his love and affection.  We will be happy to have your vet talk to our vet and will pass along all of his prior medical and testing records.  If you think you are that Special person for Orson, please send us a text [email protected] and we will have the appropriate person call you back to discuss further.

Our adoptable animals are all in private foster homes. We do not have a shelter facility that you can just visit.  If you are looking to adopt, please check for available animals under the Adopt tab.  The site is updated whenever new animals are available.

As much of our community continues to go through hard times, help us to keep people's pets safe with their people and out of shelters!

OWNER HARDSHIP RELIEF:
As we still go through some challenging times, we do not want pets to lose their home right now for lack of food resources or essential veterinary care.  If you need a list of pet food banks, we can provide that to you, or we can make arrangements to provide food directly to you.  If your pet needs imperative veterinary care that you cannot afford due to income disruption, we may also be able to help. Please contact us at:  [email protected]

DONORS:  If you would like to make a donation to our Emergency Pet Food and Veterinary Care Relief Fund, please use our DONATE button on our Donate page and we will match up your donation with a pet in need.    Our mission is to keep people's pets safe with their families, and OUT of shelters!
