People Seeking a Loving Cat Companion
Adopting a cat will enrich your world in so many different ways.
- Cats will keep you entertained with their playful antics.
- Cats are very affectionate and love to cuddle with you.
- Having a cat can reduce your blood pressure and prevent heart disease.
- Cats are very clean -- they bathe themselves!
- Cats are independent and can be left alone while you are at work.
- Cats do not need to be housebroken -- using the litter box comes naturally to them.
- Cats do not need a lot of space. They are perfect pets for apartments and smaller homes.
- Taking care of a cat can help teach a child responsibility and humane values.
- Cats get plenty of exercise living indoors. Just 15 minutes of playtime each day will satisfy a cat.
- Approximately 4 million homeless cats end up in animal shelters every year in the United States. By adopting, you’ll be saving a life.
Throughout the year, CARE often comes upon special cases. These are situations where an animal has had a particularly tough life, and is in need of special care. These are also cases where we often need a little extra help to make life a little better for these poor dogs and cats. Please check out their stories.
The first edition of Adventures of Max and Lou is now available!
Local author and CARE volunteer Kelsey Vanarsdall has written a book about her two dogs, one of which is a CARE rescue. She has also included other CARE rescue animals in the book. The illustrations were done by local artist/dog trainer/CARE volunteer Nick Woolls, and donations (after printing costs) will go to CARE.
This is a great gift and another fun way to support CARE and animal rescue. Please let any friends and relatives in education know about this great book!
Go exploring with Max and Lou - two dogs with friends find out what belonging to a good home really means.
Written in honor of the tireless efforts of organizations like C.A.R.E. It is a children's book, but it is really for the child inside all of us because what if, just what if, dogs and cats really do talk and carry on adventures with their friends? Oh, what a magical world it would be...
