Help save Peppers leg!

Pepper was found a week ago by Folsom Animal Services. She had a broken leg and was taken to a veterinarian for evaluation. Her exam showed that poor little Pepper had a severely fractured leg and a pelvic fracture as well. For a kitten in such pain she was the sweetest little thing I have seen in some time. Folsom Feline Rescue took her in and now we need your help to save her leg.

Pepper's surgery will be expensive as she needs a specialist to pin her leg back together. If you would like to make a donation to help this wonderful kitten please contact us.

Phoenix School Students Raise Money for Felines!

Students at a local Phoenix School in Folsom raised money to help support Folsom Feline Rescue's spay & neuter programs. The third grade classes of Mrs. McCracken and Mrs. Loveland wanted to do something to help a local animal rescue group and decided on a fundraising event to collect money and food. On Tuesday, March 25th, John Bennett, president of Folsom Feline Rescue, visited with both classes to receive the donations from the fundraising event. In addition Mr. Bennett present both classes with an outstanding achievement award from Folsom Feline Rescue in recognition of their outstanding efforts. "It is a wonderful thing that all these young kids decided to do this fundraiser. Every bit helps our cause", said Bennett.

The students collected the donation money in five 2 litter plastic soda bottles that they hand decorated with colored paper. Mr. Bennett stated that the the kids raised over $176 dollars from the event. In addition bags of cat food and cat treats were donated to help feed hungry felines.

The Phoenix School’s Folsom campus is an independent school for Kindergarten through 8th grade students  The campus prides itself not only on their advanced academic performance but also in the performing arts and the state of the art computer technology.  Learning is also brought outside the classroom in life labs where each class is responsible for the growing and harvesting of vegetables.

LapCats Events

LapCats is held the third Saturday of each month at an assisted living residence in the Folsom/Orangevale/Fair Oaks area. 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, Folsom Feline Rescue can be reached at 

(916) 484-4099.
