A big thank you to the team of
Google employees who volunteered to paint our atrium. It is a beautiful blue, and has brightened up the whole hallway. The cats love it, and so do our staff and visitors!
We had a special adoption recently with Lashanna. She was originally adopted from Cat Care Society,
but last month turned up in very bad shape at a veterinary clinic. Because of her microchip, they were able to trace Lashanna to us and we picked her up. Our staff brought her back to health fairly quickly, and she is doing well and gaining weight. We could not reach her original adopters, but a
wonderful family took her into their home. Lashanna has also bonded with another cat in the family, for an even happier ending!
Tune in to Channel 9 at 7:45AM Wednesday morning, June 13th. One of our kitties will be on Petline 9 with Outreach Director, Suellen Scott.

Visit our website to view all our cats available for adoption.
Note: our standard adoption screening process applies to this promotion. Further, for cats age ten and older and cats with chronic medical problems we offer our Perpet-U-Care Program which provides

Hi there, my name is Mallory! I'm a 4 year old Queen, looking for my own castle to rule. I miss having a family of my own. I had a great home, but lost it and I don't know why. I do need to be the only cat. At the shelter I admit I am not on my best behavior when there are other cats around. But when I am by myself I can be so loving and cuddly. I'm an expert at sitting in laps and purring!
I have long hair, and although I don't like having it brushed, sometimes I do need a bit of help keeping it looking gorgeous. Please come and meet me!
You can read more about Mallory on her Adopt-a-Pet page:
