This is even more relevant than usual. Help however you can... no matter how you are able to. It all makes a difference.

We have been contacted by many people asking how they can help cats in Central Texas rescued from the flooding. Please add in the comments the contact info of any rescue groups you are aware of that have taken in animals and what help is needed. Below is from Austin Pets Alive.

To help cats rescued during the flooding in the Austin, Texas area, you can contribute in several ways:
1. Foster a cat:
Austin Pets Alive! (APA!) is urgently seeking fosters for animals displaced by the floods, including cats. You can sign up to become an emergency foster on their website.
Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter (WCRAS) is also in need of emergency fosters.
2. Make a donation:
Austin Pets Alive! is accepting donations to help with the medical care of sick or injured animals displaced by the floods.
Kerr County Flood Relief Fund: The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country has established a fund to support organizations providing relief efforts, including animal rescue.
WCRAS General Donation Fund: You can also donate to the WCRAS General Donation Fund to support their efforts.
3. Donate pet supplies:
Austin Pets Alive! is in need of cat food, pet carriers, tarps, and towels. You can drop off donations at their Town Lake Animal Shelter.

I am finding it difficult to celebrate freedom in our country today as we are so far from what freedom looks like to me. But despite that, I hope each of you can find some time for family and/or friends and are able to enjoy this day.

Perhaps we can all take a few minutes to intensely focus some positive energy for those who are struggling for FREEDOM in the USA. And perhaps also for our elected officials who really need to grow a pair and stand up for what is right. Who knows... maybe it can make a difference.

And some tips for the animals you care for:
~Feed colony cats before dark if you usually feed in the evening, as they may not come out once the crazy noise begins.
~Make sure pets (cats and dogs) have tags on with your contact info and make sure they do not bolt out the door. Confined to a room is good.
~If dogs need to be taken outside, stay with them and keep them leashed if possible.
~If your pet suffers from anxiety, this might be a good time to give them some medication, or just stay cuddled with them as much as possible.

Do you have some tips to share to help our animal friends tonight?

Only for those who happen to have a chip on their shoulder this week. Share it with those who might know someone who needs to hear this.

Fireworks are terrifying for pets, community cats, and wildlife. They are also not a lot of fun for many veterans, people (including children) with anxiety, certain health conditions, or PTSD. And they cause injuries and fires when set off by the general public. You may not be able to control it, but if you feed animals, try to feed them before the fireworks start. And be sure to secure your indoor pets. Too many dash outside once it all starts and that makes it even scarier for them. July 4th is not fun for a lot of us.

This one thing can make a huge difference for community cats as well as many other critters.
