Can you help us save Crystal??

Crystal's Story:

Crystal is only 8 months old, but she is already facing a life-threatening situation.  Crystal has a polyp in her ear. Usually ear polyps are minor, and are easily removed.  But the polyp in Crystal's ear is deep and extensive, and requires surgery by a specialist.  If not removed, Crystal will suffer repeated ear infections, followed by disorientation and seizures as the polyp grows.  If the polyp becomes extensive enought, the final result will be death.  This specialized surgery will cost between $1,700.00 and $2,000.00. Can you help us pay for Crystal's surgery so that she can have the happy life she so deserves?

Adopt a Special Needs Kitty!!!
     We at Cat's Cradle of Greater Richmond have a special place in our hearts for our "special needs" friends.  Because they often need extra care, these kitties are regularly left behind in the pounds.  They watch as cat after cat leaves the pound with a rescue group or happy family, all the time wondering . . . when will it be my turn?  Sadly, their turn never comes.  But, with Cat's Cradle championing these deserving kitties, their turn has finally come.

Meet Ashlin !!!  
     Many of you may be familiar with Ashlin, who recently lived in our Adopt-A-Pet center in Petsmart.  Ashlin is one of our Whole Lotta Love kitties.  This special girl is 12 years old, yet you'd never now this when you play with her.  Ashlin lived a long, happy life, but when the children in her family developed allergies, Ashlin found herself homeless. Ashlin is a super cute, sociable blue-cream girl.  She has an absolutely amazing coat which feels like velvet, and giant golden eyes.  Ashlin is a total lap cat and love machine, and is sure to steal your heart.  Can you give this wonderful girl the retirement home she so deserves?  Call Kathy at 873-9976.

Adopt an FIV+ kitty!!!
    Are you looking for a new family member?  If you are currently catless, then you might be the perfect home for one of our wonderful FIV+ kitties.  Cats who test positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) can and often do live healthy normal lives with no signs of illness.  Despite these encouraging odds, it is common for these cats to be euthanized simply because they have tested positive for FIV.  We at Cat's Cradle believe that FIV+ cats deserve loving homes.  We have several fabulous and ultra-friendly FIV+ sweethearts waiting to share their life with you.  Our FIV+ kitties can be adopted as only pets, as a pair with another FIV+ feline, or as a companion for a dog.
