Folsom Feline Rescue to Include Heartworm Testing! Folsom Feline Rescue will begin heartworm testing on all new arrivals. This will be just another of the many procedures and services already taken care of when you adopt a Folsom Felines Cat. Thanks to the new IDEXX test kits we are able to offer this testing and not increase our adoption fees. This new three-in-one test lets us raise the standard of care for cats, and make a definitive diagnosis of adult heartworm infection in the cats we place for adoption. Since our beginning we have always included FeLV and FIV testing. Now we can include testing of Heartworm as well. Folsom Feline Rescue has always strived to provide the healthiest cats possible for adoption. In addition to the testing for serious diseases like FeLV, FIV, and now Heartworm, we also provide treatment for intestinal worms, fleas, and ear mites as well as Heartworm prevention. FVRCP vaccinations are included with all cats adopted and Rabies is included for cats over 5 months of age. For added pet safety we provide microchips on all cats adopted. All these services are provided for a very reasonable adoption fee.

LapCats volunteers, both human and feline, visit a different facility each month. Currently, seven local assisted living facilities receive visits on a revolving basis.
The LapCats Special Care program is held the first Saturday of every month. These visits are dedicated to special care wards to visit those seniors with serious health issues, or who are diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or dementia, or who are unresponsive for some reason. Currently, Fountainwood Assisted Living in Orangevale is the only facility that is scheduled for monthly Special Care visits, but in the future, Folsom Feline Rescue expects to expand the program to other facilities.
To request a visit by LapCats volunteers, or to volunteer to assist with either program, contact Folsom Feline Rescue.
