Happy Mother's Day Weekend

 Wishing the happiest of weekends to all moms everywhere!

PLEASE be sure to stop by Twinkletoe Tails for our pal Oui Oui's birthday party, which lasts all day Saturday, May 12th and Sunday, May 13th (Mother's Day)!  To celebrate the special occasion, Oui Oui and her family are generously hosting a commentathon to benefit PAWS, the no-kill shelter whose cats are featured here at Animal Shelter Volunteer Life!  Isn't that amazing?  Thank you Oui Oui, Mica Minnie Moo, Carlos, Julie, Angel Leia and Mom Paula. We love you! :)

Happy Mother's Day weekend, everybody!

Such Amazing Friends

Holy Cat!  Our dear friends at Twinkletoe Tails have made an incredible announcement!  To celebrate sweet Oui Oui's 6th birthday (which along with Mother's Day is this Sunday, May 13th), they're holding a commentathon to benefit PAWS, the no-kill animal shelter whose cats are featured here at Animal Shelter Volunteer Life!

Birthday Girl Oui Oui

Oui Oui, Mica Minnie Moo, Carlos, Julie, Angel Leia, and Mom Paula will generously be making a donation to PAWS for every comment they receive at their blog on Saturday, May 12th and Sunday, May 13th.  We are so honored by their ongoing friendship, and sincerely moved by their decision to help us on Oui Oui's special weekend. :)

We hope you'll visit Twinkletoe Tails to wish our pal Oui Oui the happiest of birthdays this coming weekend (while helping PAWS at the same time).  We have a feeling it will be quite the party!

Thanks for visiting, and have a great day! :)

Happy Cinco de Mayo :)

On behalf of all of us here at Animal Shelter Volunteer Life,

here are Moosey and Sammy, wishing everybody a festive Cinco de Mayo! :)

Words with Jazmin :)

Sometimes we find something fun among the donated towels used at PAWS.  Last week, for instance, we came across this whimsical Scrabble-themed towel... 

As you can see, our super sweet buddy Jazmin had a good time playing on it! 

Hey Jazmin, what's that you've spelled with your tiles? 

"A-D-O-P-T    M-E    P-L-E-A-S-E" :)

May Day is Tongue Tuesday

Last week, our pal Katie (from the wonderful blog Glogirly: Tails of a Cat and Her Girl) gave a wonderful lesson on how to create simple animations known as .GIF files. Under Katie's excellent tutelage, we thought we'd have some fun with two pictures of our own Moosey in his crown bed. :)

Happy May Day, everybody!

A Rupert in the Sun

Here's sleek and handsome mancat Rupert, soaking up some sunbeams in the totally shredded well-loved Room 8 cat tree.  Although he can be cautious with new people, Rupert comes right out and seeks affection from his volunteer and shelter staff friends.  This one-and-a-half year-old loves other cats, but would definitely do best in a home without dogs or small children.  Rupert is neutered, current on all his vaccinations, micro-chipped and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.   Come meet him at PAWS today! :)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Bella

We love sweet and gorgeous (and adoptable!) Bella.
