Picked up her littermates this morning. We have 2 girls and 2 boys. Im glad she isn't alone but sad for these new ones since they are just now getting the care they need. Stay tuned!

Update for 10/21: Huge improvements tonight! She has started eating on her own, gained 2oz, and her temperature is holding steady at 100. Looking so good, baby! ❤️📈🐾

It's 34 degrees out, so we've got the heater on for the first time this year. Does anyone else's pet lay on the vent when the heat is running?

Dear Supporters,

We regret to inform you that two of our TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) cats have tested positive for panleukopenia. In light of this situation, we have decided to temporarily suspend all rescue activities for the next 14 days to ensure the safety and well-being of our remaining animals.

As a result, we will not be holding our event at PetSmart this coming Saturday, the 3rd. However, we are pleased to announce that we will collaborate with PetSmart (located at 7501 SW Dartmouth St, Tigard, OR) to feature a selection of foster cats in their adoption center on Saturday. These cats are not affected, as they have never been in contact with the TNR cats.

If you have any questions or concerns about panleukopenia or our rescue protocols, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support during this time.

Sincerely,
Shannon Shafer
Founder, Orphan Kitten Rescue of Oregon

**Public Service Announcement:**

We urge everyone to be very careful about whom you give your kittens to. Recently, we have had a heartbreaking experience where two individuals gave away free kittens to people who own reptiles or aggressive dogs. This isn't fair to the kittens, as they deserve a safe, loving environment.

Please remember to spay and neuter your cats. If you have kittens that need homes, consider working with a rescue organization instead of giving them away for free. It's essential to ensure these little ones go to responsible, caring families.

Thank you for your understanding and support.
