![]() Skittles is a handsome Maine Coon mix with a mellow and easy-going personality. He is great with kids, and loves to be picked up and held like a big baby. Skittles family moved away and left him at the SPCA. Skittles was unhappy being around all the other cats there, and didn't show very well to potential adopters. He is much happier now as a single cat in an AFRP foster home, and would be a wonderful pet for a family with no other cats. Skittles is four years old, neutered, vaccinated and micro-chipped. Give us a call if you would like to meet this big fluffy boy! (831) 333-0722 |
Unfortunately I had made a mistake when viewing the adoptable cats’ page and never read the fine print beneath the Salinas Animal Shelter: While the AFRP does try to rescue animals from shelters they are burdened with limited space and the city shelters do euthanize.
Here’s one that particularly bummed me out.
![]() Colin Feral plays his greatest role as a stray cat that is down on his luck and ended up at the Salinas Animal Shelter. He is hard-pressed to find an owner before his time runs out. So what's your motivation?-a great loving cat that can go home with you today and make your home a stage for a blockbuster hit. Colin is a 2 year old male, and is already neutered. For more information, call the Salinas Animal Shelter at 831-758-7285 and ask about Animal #26428. |
Did they have to say,”Hard pressed to find an owner?” I went to their site and was hard pressed to learn how long they keep animals before they’re euthanized. Also, due to budget cuts all over the city of Salinas; you know unimportant crap such as schools, library, parks, youth centers; they’ve not surprisingly also cutback on the animal shelter’s funding.
