WHITE CAT WEDNESDAY!

Violet is 2 years 6 months-old and sponsored by Alex Huie. SNAP Cats rescued Violet from San Bernardino, CA. Violet was found in a small colony of stray cats in San Bernardino covered in mange. She was taken to a local rescue called PawLove.org, where Kimberly treated Violet for mange, got her spayed and up to date on vaccines, and that’s when they learned Violet is FIV+. Kimberly’s organization doesn’t normally adopt out cats (they help where we can with the homeless animal population and those that need them), so she reached out to us.

We think Violet will thrive in a quieter environment with fewer kitties. Right now she’s a bit skittish, but once she gets to knows you she loves pets and attention. So we’d like to find a new home for Violet ASAP.

If you can give Violet a new home please fill out an adoption application at https://www.snapcats.org/category/adoption/catsforadoption/. Thanks.

This is Princess Donut (yes we are). She’s about 11 weeks-old and visually challenged. Princess Donut arrived at the Moreno Valley shelter with her left eye severely protruding and suffering from a significant upper respiratory infection. After evaluation by their veterinary team, her left eye was enucleated to relieve her pain and prevent further complications. Throughout Princess Donut’s recovery, shelter staff provided intensive supportive care, including syringe feeding and subcutaneous fluids. Four days ago, after some gentle coaxing, Princess Donut ate on her own for the first time. Despite this encouraging milestone, Princess Donut still requires extensive care. She is suspected to have limited or no vision in her remaining right eye, and her upper respiratory infection continues to affect her overall comfort and recovery. She also has a persistent left-sided head tilt that may require additional diagnostics and ongoing medical evaluation. Princess Donut is a resilient little warrior who has already overcome so much in her short life.

Princess Donut will be arriving here today in the early evening (not sure what time yet). You can watch her arrival on our Kitten Room Webcam at https://www.youtube.com/@SnapcatsOrg/streams.

Thanks to the staff at Moreno Valley Animal Shelter for your intensive care of Princess Donut!

Gigi is 7 years 11 months-old and sponsored by Michael Snider. SNAP Cats rescued GiGI from Palm Springs, CA. This girl is all Calico! And you know what THAT means. Sweet one minute; not so sweet the next. Age has mellowed her a bit, but she still has that edge that makes calicos, well, calicos. The perfect home? A calm, kid-free environment with a high perch and a window to watch the birds outside would be ideal. Oh, and wet food. GiGi LOVES wet food. Gotta have that! The right flavor, of course. Which varies from day to day. Of course.

If you’re interested in Gigi please fill out an adoption application at https://www.snapcats.org/category/adoption/catsforadoption/. Thanks.

WHITE-ISH CAT WEDNESDAY!

Matilde is 8 years 11 months-old and sponsored by Alice Weigel. SNAP Cats rescued Matilde from Mozambique, Africa. Matilde is a very sweet kitty. She’ll greet you when you come in the room, and solicit pets until it’s enough. She is a Calico after all. Matilde gets along well with other cats or will fit in nicely as an only cat.

BTW: Please don't be afraid of FIV. It's nothing. Really. Slightly compromised immune system. That's it. Just like a FIV- cat, Matilde will live a long, healthy life if you take good care of her. Matilde's not aggressive toward other cats so there's no chance of her transmitting it.

Thanks to a generous Operations Grant from @petfinderfoundation, we’re able to purchase three months’ worth of food for Matilde as she awaits her forever home.

If you’re interested in Matilde please fill out an adoption application at https://www.snapcats.org/category/adoption/catsforadoption/. Thanks.

IT'S JUNE IN DECEMBER!

June is 1 year 7 months-old and sponsored by Leigh Behrens. SNAP Cats rescued June from Sacramento, CA. June is a very sweet kitty, EXTREMELY playful (never stops!), LOVES (human) attention, and is fairly independent, so June could be an only kitty, or she’ll fit in nicely with your resident cat(s).

If you’re interested in June please fill out an adoption application at https://www.snapcats.org/category/adoption/catsforadoption/. Thanks.
