Meet Maisy, our KSRO Newstalk 1350 #PetOfTheWeek! 🐾💖 If you’ve ever been in a situation where fear held you back, you’ll understand how Maisy feels right now. This beautiful 3-year-old is struggling in the shelter, which just isn’t her happy place. Despite our best efforts, what Maisy really needs is the comfort of a loving home. 🏡 She’s slowly warming up to us, enjoying some pets and playtime, but we know her true, affectionate self is just waiting to blossom! In her previous home, Maisy was cherished for her cozy lap cuddles, her epic cat tree climbs, and her sweet little meows that melted hearts. 💕 With a little patience and love, Maisy will shine again. Could you be the hero Maisy needs? 🌟 ☎️: 707-542-0882 💻: https://lnkd.in/gD5UuqMD #Adopt #AdoptAShyCat #AdoptMaisy #Maisy #AdoptLocal #SonomaCounty #SonomaCountyCats #MakeADifference #Adoptionhero #AdoptDontShop #HSSC #HumaneSocietySoco #CommittedToKindness #CatLover #AnimalLovers

Happy #Caturday from feline behavior manager Saffron! 🐾 Playing with your cat is an essential part of their daily routine; every one from tiny kittens to super-seniors will benefit from playtime!🎮 🎣 Wand toys, or fishing pole toys, are one of the best tools for you to have to engage your cat in playtime. While the type of wand toy you have matters (as cats like different ones), the manner in which you move the wand toy around is often the most important thing. Finding your cat’s play style will help both of you have a lot of fun! 🎉 Kittens are usually pretty easy to please—start waving the toy around in erratic motions, and they’ll likely be happy! Some cats can be quite picky about how they play with toys and will only bat at a wand toy if you swish it slowly above their head just right, or drag it along the edges of their cat tree or another specific spot. ✨ Wilma, featured in the video, is a good example of a cat who has a favorite play style. She’s a high-energy cat who needs lots of enrichment and playtime. While she enjoys batting at wand toys in many ways, what’s seen in this video is her favorite—when the wand toy is dragged behind an object, so she can leap and 'catch it by surprise!' 🎯 This play mimics a cat hunting a mouse 🐭, so it’s actually quite common! Wilma is available for adoption! 🏡 She’d love to be the only cat in a home, and due to her keen hunting skills, she’ll do best in a home with no birds or small pets like rats or mice. 🐦 If this gorgeous lady catches your eye 💖, and you think playing with her sounds like fun, visit the shelter or call our adoption counselors! 📞 707-542-0882 💻 https://lnkd.in/grcqsfiN #HSSC #HumaneSocietySoco #SonomaCounty #AdoptACat #AdoptAOverstimCat #AdoptLove #AdoptionSavesLives #CatLovers #SiameseCat #SonomaCounty #FelineBehavior #CatBehavior #CatPlay #CommittedToKindness

🎉 We made it through another week, and what better way to celebrate than with a happy tail! 🐾 Curious George (formerly known as Joshua) has found his forever home! 😻 This little guy, with his adorable curly tail and grumpy face that’s just too cute, has been a volunteer and staff favorite for ages. We’ve all been crossing our fingers for the perfect match, and guess what? Our prayers were finally answered! When a kind gentleman came in searching for a loving kitty to spoil his elderly mother, we knew exactly who to recommend. George, our sweet old man, worked his charm instantly. Within minutes, he curled up on his new dad’s lap, sealing the deal for a lifetime of snuggles. 💖 George will now be the solo king of his household, with two full-time laps to lounge on! 👑 After two returns and several months in our shelter, he's finally getting the pampered life he always deserved. We couldn’t be happier for this incredible match. 💫 Happy tails, George! We’ll miss you, but we know you’re in the best place possible. 😄🐾 send your happy tails to happytails@humanesocietysoco.org #HappyTails #Adopted #FeelGoodFriday #CuriousGeorge #HSSCAlumni #SonomaCounty #HumaneSocietySoCo #AdoptLocal #AdoptDontShop

🌟 It’s #WishlistWednesday, and we could really use your help! 🌟 Our shelter needs large towels and cardboard trays! 🧼We use towels throughout the shelter for animal care and comfort. Larger-sized towels are helpful for any sized pet and mess! 🐈We use these trays as litter boxes—their single-use purpose helps us keep our wards clean and our kittens and cats healthy! Plus, they help us reduce costs and waste from pre-made litterboxes. If you have cardboard trays that would otherwise end up in your recycling bin, we would love to have them! (Photos for reference) Drop-off Location: Santa Rosa Shelter: 5345 Hwy 12 West 11 AM – 6 PM, Tuesday – Sunday Thank you for supporting our animals! 💚 #DonateForGood #ShelterSupport #HelpOurPets #RecycleForRescue #CommittedToKindness #HumaneSocietySoco #SonomaCounty #SonomaCountyCares #AnimalLovers #AnimalWelfare #Donate #MakeADifference #AnimalCareEssentials

And all Wilbur asks for in his dream home is little to no stairs for easy potty breaks. 🚪💨 Ready to welcome this wrinkly, wonderful goofball into your life?
