If you have found a stray dog, please contact your local council. You will need to get the cat desexed and microchipped. If you have confirmed that cat does not already have an owner and would like to take on responsibility for the cat, please contact your local SPCA for advice. Like us cats will still eat what’s tasty even if it isn’t good for their health! The cat may be on a specific diet for health problems such as diabetes or allergies and feeding could put its health at risk. Until you have confirmed that the cat does not have an owner, we recommend that you do not feed the cat. If the cat is owned, the owner is likely to see the cat within 48 hours and hopefully will get in touch with you to reassure you that the cat is owned.

But younger cats may not be ready until June. The cats are friendly and the shelter says they expect some of the older ones to be adoptable in about two weeks. Some cats pried open the vents and were sliding down the air ducts for fresh air.
Officers responding to the home said they had to wear respirators because the smell of ammonia was so strong. The good news is the cats are expected to recover but right now they’re underweight, dehydrated, and not ready for adoption. The shelter is asking people to consider adopting or fostering the healthy dogs, cats, and rabbits to help make room. All of a sudden the Thurston County shelter had 230 animals when they only have room for 95. The owner had been evicted and left the cats, which were found malnourished.
