Olympic Peninsula Humane Society - Kitty City adoption anniversary!

Last Updated 6/19/2024Posted in Non-profits: Animals, Non-profits, Animals

Two years ago today, I met her in the Kitty City intake room

She was scrawny and cross-eyed, and looked undersized for being nine months on earth. Her special talent appeared to be purring and pushing her forehead so firmly against the towel in her kennel, that she would flip over. That was it; this was the cat for us! As she had just arrived, she wasn't yet available for adoption.

From the K-9 Campus to Kitty City, it's all about the animals

The Olympic Peninsula Humane Society (OPHS) is dedicated to maintaining and improving the health and well being of all surrendered, lost, abandoned, neglected and abused companion animals of Clallam County. They help lost animals reunite with their owners and help homeless animals--like our little girl--find new owners--like us!

From vehicle donations to food and supplies for dogs and cats, there are many ways big and small to help the K-9 Campus and Kitty City. The May 2024 annual Meowgaritas and Mutts dinner and auction raises funds for shelter operations and animals' well-being, and is always as fun as kittens driving a truck full of puppies!

She's improved our lives

About a month and a half after we met her, OPHS called and said she was available for adoption, so we high-tailed it to Kitty City to pick her up. But we still call June 18th our anniversary, as that's the day we first saw her.

She's a fit, healthy girl, and loves laps and sunspot naps. She'll run across the house when she hears the catnip can open, and is keeping our older and much larger cat on his pink toes. 

Every day they make us laugh and make us love them more, which helps us love this life more. They remind us to be grateful.

And she still pushes her head into the floor and flips over, gazes cross-eyed upward, and purrs a song of contentment.

Contact OPHS and find out how you can help them help animals.
