We recently acquired two cats that were the saddest things you have ever seen. They had obviously been on their own for quite some time. The person that found them knew they needed to no longer fend for themselves but they more needed a family to take care of them. The next thought that came into their minds was to bring them to us. When they came in at first there was some resistance from our current cat residences. They felt as though they had to give them the once over before the new comers were allowed to experience life in their new home. The night was a long one as we heard voting in the other room in the way of growls and meowing. By the morning they had come to a decision that they could stay. We knew their decision because they were all in one large pile in the small strip of sunshine that made it’s way through the blinds. We knew we needed to change some of the things that we had in our home to accommodate our growing population. The first thing we had to do was to buy more cat scratch trees. We had bought a couple of them a few years back. They quickly became one of our cats favorite things. They could get a running start and almost fly up and down them. We enjoy watching them play as much as they enjoy playing, Being indoor cats, they like scratch poles that I have provided. This gives the cats a lot of exercise. We were so surprised at how cat scratch poles had changed when we began shopping for them. We found one cat pole that actually looked like a tree. It had several hiding places which is perfect for a multi-cat household. It gives each their own private meditation spot. There are all types of cat scratch poles available now. You can choose the carpet colors to match your homes carpet so it will not stand out. They have all types of designs in the new cat scratch poles that are perfect for older cats. Some features we noticed were bigger areas so they are less likely to loose their balance and fall. The same is true for cats with disabilities. The large surfaces with the curved edges will keep a cat from falling and it signals our blind cats they are on the edges. Of course these features are also good for all cats to enjoy. If you have a multi-cat family they like to sleep in a pile sometimes and the larger spaces and hiding boxes allow many cats to sleep together or a bigger cat to really stretch out. Having several spaces in different heights at the top of the cat scratch tree allows cats to feel they are the top cat as they watch over their territories way down below! If you watch your cats play you can see them creating games which is entertaining to watch. The new cat scratch trees are made to last with a more stable design from just a few years ago. This is good news for those of us that have cats that really use their cat scratch poles! Although we have yet found anyone that has a cat that does not love their cat poles. Many of our friends put their cat poles in front of windows so their cats can enjoy the sunshine while laying on their cat poles for their long afternoon naps. After a game of top of the pole they get really tired.

The spring time is here and that means beautiful flowers are making their appearance with little blooms popping out all over. Grills are being pulled out and readied for the summer months of barbecues and family gatherings. We will hear the onset of birds as they chirp their beautiful melodies in the green lush trees. While all of this is going on little babies of all kinds are being born. From little chicks to puppies and kittens animals are being born everywhere. The downside to this season is this is the very difficult season for the animal shelters. They become full very quickly. The results of a full shelter are unthinkable. They have nowhere for the new arrivals to go which means a shorter time for animals to have in the shelter. There are actually very few that find homes in a shelter compared to hoe many actually need homes. The responsibilities lie on the pet owners to have their pets neutered and spayed. There are actually programs in place in our area to have feral cats fixed for a low cost to protect the feral cat populations from becoming out of control. The bottom line is for everyone that loves their pets please be responsible and do not let them breed.

Animals are roaming free in so many of our neighborhoods it is important that pet owners take the responsibility to keep your dogs in a fence for their protection and to make certain that your pets are neutered and spayed. We love our animals and we do not want to contribute to the over population of animals in the shelters. The endings are not good for most of the animals that are put into the shelters. My family have worked placing animals for many years as an independent animal rescuer. It is rewarding and heartbreaking work but it has to be done. It seems the minute we place a dog or cat in a great home there is someone at our door with several more. It can be difficult to find homes for as many as we need to. That is why we are passionate about the spay programs that many areas offer.
