So Very Grateful

Most of you know that our friends over at Twinkletoe Tails celebrated sweet Oui Oui's sixth birthday over the weekend with a commentathon party to benefit PAWS.  Those of you who attended know the gathering was of the "party-of-the-century" variety!  What fun, and how exciting to see so many of you there.  And NOW, we've been informed by Oui Oui and her family that the commentathon raised a whopping $101 for PAWS!*  (*We're going to designate the money for the Cosmo Fund, which helps pay for medical expenses for very sick or injured pets in the shelter's care.)

We are so very grateful.  Grateful to Oui Oui, Mica Minnie Moo, Carlos, Julie, Angel Leia, Mom Paula, and "the Girl" for their kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity.  And grateful for all of you who took the time to comment and help Oui Oui celebrate her special day.  Big hugs and thanks to you all.

And while we're on the topic of things for which we're GRATEFUL ... please be sure to come back Friday for some very exciting adoption news!  Here are just a couple of hints to hold you over...

Have a great week, 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! :)

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! :)
