World Spay Day
Unaltered cats cause a racket!
Did you know that February 28th is World Spay Day? This day draws attention to the importance of spay/neuter as a proven means of saving the lives of companion animals and community (feral and stray) cats.

|
Spaying or neutering animals helps prevent unruly behavior. Meowing incessantly, messy heat cycles, pacing, marking, spraying, roaming to find a mate - these are characteristics of cats and dogs who haven't been altered. Having your pet spayed or neutered will prevent these behaviors.

 Albany
"Albany is doing great! She has definitely adjusted well and has taken over the place :). She is playful and energetic but also likes to cuddle at night. Her favorite place in the whole apartment is wherever the people are. She is such a pretty, well-mannered, wonderful pet."

 Frannie
"Frannie wanted to stop by and say hello as her one year adoptiversary was on February 3. She's a real sweetheart who loves spending her days cat-napping in the sun. She's my favorite cat (don't tell the others)...and I'm so glad we found each other!"
