If you are able to open up your heart and offer your home as a safe haven for a pregnant cat, a momma cat with kittens, or orphaned kittens, please consider becoming a foster caretaker. Call Cathy at 651-230-3263 or email her for more information. There is also a need for permanent foster care or adoptive homes for special needs cats and kittens. FeLV+ (Feline Leukemia Positive) cats and kittens are looking for homes where they will be the only cat or where only FeLV+ cats already reside. FIV+(Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Positive) cats can share a home with other FIV+ cats or be the sole center of attention. Seriously injured cats do best in a foster home while they recuperate. Elderly cats appreciate spending the winter of their lives in the quiet environment of a home. http://www.felinerescue.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=58 There is an IMMEDIATE & CRITICAL need for volunteer shelter caretakers Monday - Friday from 10:00AM -Noon!!!

After learning that declawing is a painful, unnecessary procedure that actually involves removal of far more than just a "fingernail," most cat owners opt for alternatives to declawing. The information in this pamphlet describes the declawing surgery and some of its potential implications, and also provides helpful alternative suggestions. With a bit of patience and understanding, you can live happily with your cat—claws and all (as well as your furniture!). As a prospective cat owner, we ask you to PLEASE consider the following information and refrain from declawing your cat. http://www.felinerescue.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=6 If you are thinking about adopting a cat or kitten, Feline Rescue is your answer! Our cats and kittens come in all sizes, shapes and colors. Your new companion could be waiting for you! By adopting a Feline Rescue cat you will be supporting a caring, no-kill shelter and making room for one more homeless cat.
