SHOP WITH A PURPOSE! Proceeds from select sale items at Sophisticated Consignments throughout the month of October 2024 will come to Tails of Hope and help serve local families and pets at the first and only non-profit Spay/Neuter clinic in Mercer County, PA. ABOUT SOPHISTICATED CONSIGNMENTS In May 2024, cat lover Tina Mudrinich opened the doors to Sophisticated Consignments in the Cornerstone Plaza outside the Shenango Valley Mall in Hermitage to serve the local community with gently used clothing and accessories, for women, at a price point that would benefit the customer as well as the consignor. “My love of this industry (women's consignment) and the fact that I missed my former business, Classy Cat (opened in Hermitage in 2007), made me realize that it was the right time to offer the community the same great product, at a price point that all could afford, again,” explained Mudrinich. “This time, I have made the decision to give a portion of the sale of clothing to a different charity each month.” So, SHOP LOCAL & SHOP FOR GOOD! A GIFT FOR YOU COULD MEAN A GIFT FOR PETS! @tailsofhopewpa @sophisticatedconsignments @tinamudrinich @MercerCountyPA #October #charityofthemonth #consignment #shopforgood #shopwithapurpose #shopforacause #changelives #improvelives #give #giveback #thankyou #makeadifference #lifesavinge #nonprofit #spayandneuter #community #family #petsarefamily #furkid #furbaby #share

A Q4 2024 grant of $10,000 was awarded for the Tails of Hope Spay & Neuter Angel Program (SNAP) and Trap-Neuter-Return Program (TNR). The SNAP PROGRAM at Tails of Hope ensures Spay/Neuter are made reasonably affordable to all who need further financial assistance beyond our everyday reduced prices. A Sliding Scale Fee is available based on household size and income. Just a few of the benefits of this program include; -> reducing unwanted litters; -> reducing the long term burden of shelters; -> reducing unwanted behaviors in pets; -> reducing chances of pets roaming, running away, getting lost, or being aggressive; -> keeping pets healthy by reducing the risks of pets developing cancer or other illnesses; -> keeping families together! The TNR PROGRAM at Tails of Hope helps compassionate and caring residents or groups who trap homeless and free-roaming cats and bring them to Tails of Hope for spay/neuter, vaccinations, and other treatments. The benefits of TNR include: -> lowering burden on kitten/cat intake into our local shelters, thereby lowering shelter costs, overcrowding, and euthanasia rates; -> permanently reducing the number of cats in an area; -> reducing the spread of disease and suffering of already infected cats; -> once returned, spayed/neutered colonies guard their territory to discourage unneutered cats from moving in and beginning the cycle of overpopulation again. For more information about our Spay & Neuter Angel Program (SNAP), to find out if it’s a good fit for you, and/or to download an application, go to our website under the ‘Forms/Flyers’ tab, or directly at: https://lnkd.in/eM_rW5Xp For more information about TNR, visit our website here: https://lnkd.in/gmi9uGBi TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT for your pet or a Community Cat, call our office between 9am-4pm, Monday-Wednesday or Friday: 724-346-4673 For more information about The Glenn and Jean Harnett Private Charitable Foundation, visit: harnettfoundation.org THANK YOU AGAIN, JEAN, BOOTSIE, & THE HARNETT FOUNDATION!

National Pet Obesity Awareness Day is October 9, 2024. Pet Obesity can cause serious health issues which are expensive to treat. Consequences of excess fat in cats & dogs can include reduced life expectancy, skin disorders, orthopedic issues, cancer, metabolic & endocrine disorders, respiratory disorders, kidney dysfunction, and chronic inflammation. Prevention is key! Here are 5 basic tips: Visit your veterinarian for help customizing a healthy diet plan for your pet based on his/her caloric needs. Cut back on treat snacking in between meals and table scraps. Ensure your pet receives daily exercise and adjust with any caloric increase in your pet's diet. With your veterinarian's approval, make diet food more appealing by warming it up, adding mashed pumpkin, or a small amount of broth. Make sure your pet is intaking a proper amount of water daily. Get ‘The Skinny on Pet Obesity’ infographic under ‘Forms/Flyers’ on our website: https://lnkd.in/eP5-wB6T To read even more about Pet Obesity Awareness Day and/or to find Pet Weight Loss Tools and Resources, visit: petobesityprevention.org Don’t forget to check out the Tails of Hope ONLINE STORE for great products for your pet.

Check out just some of our "pawsome" animal clients from this week September 30 - October 4, 2024. DID YOU KNOW...? Pictured in the center circle is the paw of a polydactyl cat at Tails of Hope this week. Here are some fun facts about polydactyl cats: -Polydactyl refers to a congenital physical anomaly which causes the cat to be born with more than the usual 18 number of toes. -If a polydactyl cat mates with a non-polydactyl cat, each kitten they produce has a 50% chance of being polydactyl. -While most polydactyl cats have only one or two additional toes, the world-record holders have an extra 10. -Caring for a polydactyl cat isn’t all that different from caring for a cat with 18 toes, however there are a few considerations to keep in mind such as nail care, paw hygiene, and mobility & adaptation. If you have a polydactyl cat, consult with your veterinarian about proper care. Our non-profit's low- to no-cost programs help reduce burdens to local rescues & shelters, and helps families save money, stay healthy & happy, and stay together. Thank you, @jennysdreamrescue, for bringing a couple of your rescue dogs to Tails of Hope this week! Pictured at bottom left is Heather with rescue dog Reba.
