🎃Happy Halloween!🎃

If our daily lives came in a Halloween costume bag… 😂

**This graphic is just for laughs—not a real costume or an item for sale!**

But if it WERE real, full authenticity would require:

🐟 Smelling faintly of sardines.
😾 Hissing at the person paying your medical bills.
🪤 Spending three hours avoiding a trap, then watching a possum eat your dinner.
🍽️ Hating people… but expecting dinner promptly at 6.

At Back Step Strays, this isn’t a costume. It’s our clientele. 😂

We love our spicy little freeloaders—and nothing scares us more than another litter of kittens. Spay, neuter, and let the hissing continue! ✂️🐾

**Share this if you’re also the unpaid servant of a tiny, hissing freeloader. 😂🐈‍⬛**

Happy National Black Cat Appreciation Day! 🐈‍⬛🖤

Let’s break the silly "bad luck" stereotype once and for all.

Anyone who has ever loved a black cat knows the real truth. These beautiful house panthers aren't spooky—they are affectionate, goofy, and fiercely loyal companions. Instead of curses, they bring endless joy, elegant charm, and an abundance of snuggles to our lives.
Let’s flood the timeline with dark-furred magic today! 👇

📸 Drop a picture of your black cat below.

🐾 Share your favorite thing about them.
Let’s see those mini-panthers! ✨

🍂🐱 IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN! WINTER CAT HOUSE PROJECT! 🐱🍂

As the temperatures start to drop, we’re getting our outdoor cat colonies ready for winter! ❄️❤️ Every cat deserves a warm, dry, safe place to escape the cold, and we need YOUR help to make that happen!

We build insulated shelters for our community cats, and each house costs approximately $30 to make. Every shelter can make a huge difference in helping a homeless cat survive the cold winter months. 🏠🐾

💕 WANT TO HELP? WE NEED DONATIONS OF SUPPLIES OR FUNDS! 💕

🛠️ Our Wish List:

* 🩶 Duct tape
* 🩶 1-inch-thick foam board insulation (4x8 ft sheet per house)
* 🩶 Caulk suitable for plastic
* 🩶 Plastic storage totes (27-gallon totes preferred, but we can work with other sizes!)
* 🩶 Straw for warmth and insulation

You can donate supplies, purchase materials, or contribute toward the cost of building these shelters. Every single donation helps us provide protection for the cats who depend on us. ❤️

We may not be able to bring every community cat indoors, but we CAN help give them a fighting chance through the winter. 🐈‍⬛❄️

🙏 Please consider helping us keep our colony cats warm this winter! If you can’t donate, sharing this post helps us reach someone who can!

Thank you for always supporting Back Step Strays and helping us care for the forgotten ones. We couldn’t do this without you! 🐾❤️

*Found Kitten*

Anyone missing a cute black kitten? It showed up on a volunteers porch yesterday morning scared and screaming. Its nails look trimmed and it’s tame. Does not have a microchip. Found between Lander and the Dixie, in Greenwood.
