Surfcat Cafe and Adoptions: P.L.A.Y. Pet Beds Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

P.L.A.Y. beds were given to foster cats so they would have something of their own to go with them on their journey to finding their forever homes.

The P.L.A.Y. beds are amazing! Warm and durable and easy to care for, these beds are a little out of our price range. We generally use donated towels and blankets and we were so proud to be able to include these beds in our foster kit. We were able to use the funds saved for food and litter.

Meet Saucy and Koda, survivors of the recent Woolsey Fire in Southern California. Both were discovered a week after the blaze had roared through a Malibu animal rescue, killing 50-60 cats who were unable to be rounded up for evacuation. Saucy, a little orange-and-white girl, spent about a week in the ICU having her burns and respiratory injuries treated. Koda, an orange/buff tabby, spent more than a month in the ICU and there were days that we weren’t certain if he would live. Both cats are still living in Surfcat Foster waiting for their forever homes.
