MCAS Purrls
For some cats, the road to adoption is not paved in gold. That's why our Purrls, cats that have been at the shelter for over 60 days, are being offered for adoption at special prices. Sometimes animals remain in the shelter for months and months for no good reason. We have found that once these animals are placed in homes, they are the most loyal and loving animals. They know you have rescued them and they are so grateful.
There is always a reduced fee for long term residents and senior animals - and often we can reduce fees when taking more than one animal. Senior animals for senior people (over 65) are free.

Regardless of the causes of the stay, many of our long-term residents exhibit one or more of the following: lack of interest in environment, including the visiting public, lack of interest in play, increased aggression to people, weight gain or loss, and change in grooming habits, most often in the form of excessive grooming. Though we do not know whether cats can experience depression as humans do, it is interesting to note that these symptoms look very much like symptoms of depression in people. It is obvious, at least, from external signs that there is a level of frustration and stress experienced, as well as a withdrawal from formerly enjoyable activities. What about the MCAS cat playrooms? Some of our cats do have the benefit of staying in one of our two, spacious cat adoption rooms, where they are housed in an uncaged environment. The cat rooms are beneficial in allowing our cats to retain that "at home" lifestyle. However, not all of our cats are able to transition to the cat adoption rooms. We simply do not have enough room for all of our cats to enjoy this sort of freedom. It is deceiving to see our cats lounging around in our playrooms - one might think these cats have it made! But remember, the longer any animal stays in a shelter, the more chance the she has to become sick or severely depressed. Plus, for every cat adopted from one of our playrooms, another one is waiting desperately to take his place. What happens at home? The good news is that a great majority of our long term guests make a smooth transition into their new homes. While the adjustment, especially for shy cats, can take 2-3 months, some adopters see a full "recovery' from the shelter experience within two weeks. Many of the behavior problems observed in the shelter fade into the backdrop as adopter and cat bond with each other over time, and in a home setting. |
