Seminar
Successful Kitten Introductions
Saturday, May 21
|
|
Kittens are on the way, and many people will adopt little ones this spring and summer. Cat behavior expert Billie Reynolds, of Good Kitty Behavior, Consulting, and Training, will present a complimentary seminar on how to set up your kitten for success in its new home.
Among the topics to be covered are the importance of socializing your kitten to all the things it will encounter in life such as the carrier, nail trims, toothbrushing, people, other animals, and vet visits. Biting and climbing curtains are very common kitten behaviors, and Billie will discuss how to address those issues as well. Please join us this Saturday, May 21, from 10am to 11:30am. RSVP to Amy Martin at amartin@catcaresociety.org. The session will be held at Cat Care Society (lower level). 5787 W 6th Ave. Lakewood, CO 80415.

Kitten season is upon us! We have many mother cats and kittens in foster care right now with lots more to come. We always provide our fosters with ample supplies and we also need to make sure we are fully stocked for the kittens in our shelter.
We currently need donations of baby scales, unscented baby wipes, and KMR Formula (powder, not liquid) to help us and our fosters continue care for our current and incoming kittens.
If you'd like to donate any of these items, please drop them off in our front lobby donation box or send them to 5787 W. 6th Ave. Lakewood, CO 80214.

We are in need of foster families for our kittens, pregnant mothers, temporary care cats, and hospice kitties. If you would like to become a foster for CCS please fill out a foster application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/CCS/Cat, and our foster coordinator will contact you. It is a very rewarding way to volunteer, and critical to our mission of helping as many cats as possible.

Hello! I'm Lucca, a big, sassy, and super sweet 13 year old girl. At first, I need time to warm up to people, but once I'm settled into my new home I will love to cuddle and talk with you. I do not like other cats or dogs and being the only animal in your home is the ideal living situation for me.
Cat Care Society took me in after my previous owner wasn't around much and didn't have time to take care of me. I am healthy for my age and don't require a special diet, but I do take a behavioral medication daily that helps with my anxiety. It's very easy to apply and is just a cream that you rub in my ear daily.
I would love a calm, quiet home with a person or couple who can give me all the love and attention I deserve! Cozy cat beds and scratching posts are a must as well. I can't wait to meet my furrever family!

We are in need of bleach, laundry detergent, washcloths/rags and bath towels. All items can be found on our Amazon Wishlist using the following link: Supplies Needed.
If you'd like to donate any of these items, you can drop them off at our shelter anytime during regular hours (Open Thursday-Monday 12pm-5pm) or ship them to 5787 W 6th Ave. Lakewood, CO 80214.
Thank you so much!

Dear Cat Expert:
Why do cats make that strange grimace?
This is known as the "flehmen response" and it is a common response when we smell something we find complex or enjoyable. When we smell these delightful scents, our lips will go back, our mouth will fall open slightly and we will hold our position for a moment. This allows the fragrance to pass through and be studied and enjoyed by what is called the Jacobsen's organ, located in the roof of our mouths. It allows us to not only smell but also taste the scent.
Great question!
