Happy Holidays from 13th Street Cat Rescue -- Thursday December 17th, 2015

We would like to wish you and yours the most joyous of holiday seasons.

This year has been another great adoption year for 13th St Cats - over 220 kitties will have found forever homes, and we've spayed and neutered over 330 cats. 
 
We have always been willing to rescue cats with complicated issues, felines needing eye surgeries, limb amputations, etc.. Additionally this year we have had significant special conditions requiring intensive/extended care and treatment - ringworm, pan-leuk, FIP, haemobartonella to name a few. And of course we have the on-going care of some of our special kitties from the past, last year's kittens (Corky and Briar), as well as many long-term older "residents" like Sal. All these felines also require more resources than the standard healthy, young rescue. 
 
We can't do it without you - supporters of all types - volunteers, donors, and adopters. We thank you so very much, and we look forward to continuing to save many lives in the upcoming year.
 
Love and best holiday wishes from the volunteers, cats, and kittens of 13th St. Cat Rescue.

Thank You Precious Cat!

A huge thanks to Precious Cat for their donation of over 3,800 lbs of litter to 13th St Cats, March 2015!  Half the load is their Ultra Premium Multi-cat Scoopable and the other half their wonderful Cat Attract litter designed by their Veterinarian Dr. Elsey. 13th St Cats knows first hand the value of the Cat Attract litter, as it has in the past enabled successful retraining and the rehoming of over 3 dozen cats.   www.preciouscat.com

FELINE GOOD! -- Wednesday January 29th, 2014

"FELINE GOOD: Judy Conner emailed me with last year's numbers for the 13th Street Cat Rescue, the downtown San Jose-based group powered entirely by volunteers since it was founded in 2005. In 2013, the group found homes for 222 stray cats, and were able to spay or neuter 233 cats. Still, there are plenty of cats downtown and elsewhere that seem to be roaming around without homes.

That's why the group is actively seeking foster home volunteers and will conduct workshops throughout this year. Go to www.13thstcats.org/info/index for more information.

Prospective Pet Adopters Overlook Black Dogs and Cats, Shelters Say.
Dark Fur and Superstition May Hurt Black Animals' Chances of Adoption

 http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/AmazingAnimals/pet-owners-overlook-black-dogs-cats-animal-shelters/story?id=8785177

"What we've learned is that large black dogs, and also black cats, tend to be the last ones to get adopted from shelters," said Kim Saunders, the head of shelter outreach for Petfinder.com, a Web site often used by people looking to adopt pets.

"As a result, there are more of them in shelters and are euthanized more because of the lack of space," said Saunders, who says that one of the reasons she believes black dogs are overlooked is because they don't photograph as well as lighter-colored animals."

Please take a look at our adoptable black kitties.
