When socializing cats, that first touch is a most amazing feeling.  No words needed here, please meet KC kitty.

Trooper came to visit today. He was adopted a while ago by one of our volunteers and renamed Rocky, but we still call him Trooper. Every once in a while he comes over to catch up on all the gossip at the shelter and have a play date with his friends. He inspects all the […]

So why  is that new cat peering over the edge of the litter box, preferring lay in its own litter rather than that comfy-lookingl cat bed? Thanks Esther, for providing one possible answer when we were first dealing with the menace called Brutus – the security of having a hiding spot.         […]

Some Background on George George would maintain a low menacing growl as soon as anyone entered the front room where he was crated.  He would lash out if you came near. To make it safer for volunteers cleaning his cage and myself for cleaning and socialization, I replaced his whisk broom with the “George Broom” […]

A Big Thank You and a Huge NTCR Cats Off to the Nielsen Corporation for including us in their volunteer program and helping us out today                  

  All Three Momma’s are now in foster care.  Thanks Darlene, for taking in Treasure and her trove of 4 also. The other mom and family are now with us. A huge thank you to NTCR volunteer Darlene for taking in five new tenants.  She’s giving extra care to Momma Wonder and her four babies […]

Mugsy who is about half the size of his six siblings is just learning how to eat wet food and is being introduced to baby kibble. He apparently is saving some for later, given that his tongue is long enough. Thoughts of fostering? Leave a message if you can help. Two more were born at […]

As shown in an earlier blog, Fric is not an “in your face” cat looking to be adopted.  This under the radar  cutie  would make any home a happier place.  So ask about our “hidey-cats when checking out the shelter.                               […]

On the advice of my best friend, Laura, I used the divider, which usually comes with crates, as a shelf.  Now Treasure has over 50% more space so she can take a well-deserved timeout from the kids. Being the great mom that she is, Treasure comes down regularly to nourish her growing babies.     […]

A day well spent promoting our shelter, adoptions and the need for volunteers.
