Amber is safe and happy

Melissa:  We are very happy (and sad) to report that we have found a great temporary home for Amber while we're overseas! She is now safe and secure at the Happy Cat Sanctuary on Long Island, NY  Here's my beautiful baby at the sanctuary!

Happy Cat is a free-roaming, cage-free, no-kill sanctuary that specializes in the rescue, rehabilitation, and shelter of at-risk cats, including cats who have been targeted by mean people who wish to poison them, shoot them, or use them as bait in gang dog-fighting rings. Cats ill with FIV (aka, cat AIDS), blind cats, deaf cats, cats missing limbs....they all come here to live out their days climbing trees, lounging in the sun, being brushed by founder Chris Arsenault and volunteer Linda, and fed yummy meals and treats.  

Happy Cat is a 501(c)3 non-profit that runs entirely on donations by individual people who want to make a difference in the lives of sick and forgotten cats. Please make a tax-deductible donation by mailing a check to PO Box 688, Coram, NY 11727.  Please make check payable to "Happy Cat, Inc."

I want to thank Chris Arsenault, founder of the sanctuary, and Linda for their amazing support, generosity, and love.  Amber is in excellent hands and has all the food, shelter, medical attention and love she could ever need.  And she's learning a thing or two about becoming an outdoor cat and making new friends, which is awesome!  I still cry when I think about her, but I know she's in an awesome place and safe. We will see her in a few years!!

Please note that we paid a considerable fee to board Amber temporarily at the sanctuary.  Happy Cat is otherwise full and is not taking in any more cats.  Please don't contact them about taking cats. The sanctuary made an exception for us.  If you would like to help the sanctuary expand so they can take more cats in the future, please make a donation, thank you!
