Ultimutt Pet Sitting

07/21/2026

i did a thing today. its been sorta in the works for a while, in an effort to help someone who had no one. Introducing Gia (tabby) and Mia (black). Gia is very shy and hiding under the futon. She is said to be 13. Mia was very friendly when i met her at the shelter. And she has been exploring the purple room, hissing and growling at OJ through the mesh door. She is said to be 10 but the people who knew these cats said she is more like 15. I don't have any previous records but they will be vetted at Options as soon as they can see them. I am hopeful that they will be reunited with their person one day but meanwhile, they will be part of our crazy household.

I'm so happy for Petunia and Jessica -- this kitty was the sweetest girl and deserved the best life -- sadly my resident bullies said no.

Petunia is a doll. She is very affectionate once she settles in. Please consider the older cats when you're looking for someone new. Kittens always get snatched up right away and the older cats are overlooked. This girl is the sweetest!!

🌸 Meet Petunia 🌸

Petunia’s story is one of healing, love… and a little unexpected detour along the way.

This sweet girl first came to Options Veterinary Care last fall with a leg injury. Thanks to one of our incredible fosters (and lots of TLC 💕), she healed beautifully with antibiotics, pain meds, and plenty of cozy care. Once she was cleared, she found a home of her own.

Fast forward to now… and Petunia is back with us, ready for her next chapter. Think of it as a little “vacation” while she waits for the right fit. 🏡

Her current home has some rowdy resident cats who just aren’t her vibe—and that’s okay. Just like people, not every personality match works out. Petunia has done nothing wrong… she’s simply ready for a calmer space where she can truly shine.

✨ About Petunia:
• Around 5 years old
• Healthy, happy, and incredibly loving
• Professional biscuit-maker (seriously… all day long 🥹)
• Comes with a BIG personality in a tiny body
• And her best-kept secret? That purr is LOUD 😻

Petunia is the kind of cat who will fill your home with warmth, comfort, and constant companionship. She just needs a peaceful place to land and a human (or two) to adore.

to see if she’s the perfect match for you.

💛 Her journey is also a beautiful reminder of what fostering can do—turning uncertain moments into healing, safety, and hope. And yes… it’s just as rewarding as it looks.

some of you may have heard this story about this poor guy stuck in a tree. a wonderful local arborist, Bear Mountain Arborist, rescued him! Options named the kitty Bear in honor of his rescuer. Bear is pretty sick and needs some expensive care. Please donate if you can. and please share his story -- maybe you have friends who can donate for him!!!

one of my friend's trapped this kitty last week. i transported her to the clinic for care. she was chipped but no one has responded to messages that she has been found, so she likely was abandoned. please share -- and if you are thinking about adding another kitty to your household, maybe this is the one!!!

✨ Meet Brittany! ✨

This sweet girl was brought to Options in a trap, but thankfully she was safe and microchipped. Sadly, we haven’t been able to locate her family, so now Brittany is in need of a fresh start. 💙

Brittany is about 3 years old. She may be a little shy at first, but once she knows you, she blossoms into a total sweetheart who loves gentle pats and attention. 😻

She’ll be available starting tomorrow (Wednesday, 8/27) and is looking for either a foster home to help her adjust, or better yet—a loving family to call her own. 🏡💞

👉 If you can give Brittany a chance, email [email protected] today!

I did a thing!!! I wanted to enhance Stella's life. I moved her into the yellow room last week and Joe Catio came through for us, building Stella her own catio!!! I have been so excited about this. He came and measured. I went online to get the window insert, thinking i would get the same as the one in the Palais de Chat but because this window is a smaller size, it would be a custom order and would take 6-8 weeks AND would cost over $400. Joe said there would be cheaper ones and i found one on Etsy, 3D printed in Oregon and shipped to me the next day -- for $100 and some change. The dog run is not the optimal spot because well, its a dog run. but down the road i am hopeful that i can get some artificial grass to cover the dirt. Joe put up the shepherd's hooks for me and i got a solar light bird feeder to put back there -- i don't know if any birds will use it but maybe they will. and i put pots with flowers back there to make it a little less drab. i ordered solar lights to put on the bottom edge for her. they should be here tomorrow. all i can say is if your cats don't have a catio -- WHY NOT!!! Catios Reno has been a godsend for us and I am SO grateful to Joe. I'll post more pics when her lights are up!!
