Feed a Shelter Cat Week is officially here!
Right now, thousands of rescue cats are sitting in shelters waiting for their forever homes. For these cats, a simple bowl of food is more than just a meal—it is comfort, stability, and the first sign that they are finally safe. 🐱❤️
Shelter food pantries deplete rapidly, and your support keeps these resilient animals healthy and ready for adoption.
How you can make an impact this week:🛒 Donate food: Drop off bags of dry kibble or cases of wet canned food directly at any shelter.
💳 Give a meal: A small monetary donation of just $5 to $10 can feed a shelter cat for an entire week.
Let's work together to make sure every single bowl is full.
Please like, comment, and share this post to spread the word and help feed a rescue cat today! 🐾

💧🐱 July is National Pet Hydration Awareness Month! 🐱💧

Is your cat getting enough water?

Cats naturally have a low thirst drive, which means many don't drink enough water on their own. Proper hydration is essential for maintaining healthy kidneys, supporting urinary tract health, aiding digestion, and helping your cat feel their best.

Here are a few simple ways to encourage your cat to drink more:

💙 Feed wet food to increase daily water intake.
💙 Provide fresh, clean water every day.
💙 Place multiple water bowls throughout your home.
💙 Try a pet water fountain—many cats prefer running water.
💙 Keep water bowls away from food and litter boxes.
💙 Use wide, shallow bowls to avoid whisker fatigue.

🚨 Signs your cat may be dehydrated include:
• Lethargy
• Dry or tacky gums
• Loss of appetite
• Sunken eyes
• Panting
• Decreased skin elasticity

If you notice any of these signs or have concerns about your cat's hydration, contact your veterinarian. Dehydration can become serious if left untreated.

A few small changes can make a big difference in keeping your feline friend healthy, happy, and hydrated! 💦❤️

Spring is upon us at last, and cats with arthritis may feel more achy and sore than usual with damp weather. There are a lot of ways to help, from joint supplements, to pain control, and even in-clinic laser therapy to reduce joint inflammation and pain!

*UPDATE, HAS BEEN ADOPTED*
Good afternoon!
This kitty was found laying in the middle of the road on Notre Dame south side of food basics in the northbound lane this afternoon.
We are hoping someone out there recognizes this handsome lad as he is not micro chipped.
We estimate that he is roughly around a year and half, he is also still intact.
He is the sweetest boy and a very gentle soul.
Please share this post, any information is greatly appreciated.

🐾 Parasite Prevention Season Is Coming! 🐾
As the weather warms up, fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites start becoming more active — and even indoor cats can be at risk with potting soil and insects. . Cats who sneak outside to explore or hunt are especially vulnerable.
What to watch for:
• Fleas – itching, hair loss, skin irritation
• Ticks – attached parasites that can spread disease
• Intestinal worms – weight loss, diarrhea, poor coat quality
Even cats that don’t go outside can pick up parasites from shoes, other pets, or prey brought indoors.
🏢 Cats living in apartment buildings or multi-unit housing should be on year-round prevention. Shared hallways, neighboring pets, and high-density living can increase the risk of parasite exposure — even if your cat never steps outside.
✔️ Talk to us about safe flea & tick prevention
✔️ Keep your cat on a regular deworming schedule
✔️ Check cats who hunt or go outdoors more frequently
Prevention is easier — and safer — than treatment. Let’s keep your feline family healthy this spring and summer!
📞 Call or message Sudbury Regional Cat Hospital to book a parasite prevention check or refill medications.
