CHAMPAIGN, IL (Chambana Today) — Donna met us at the Kitty Crib this morning – hours before the facility opened for drop-ins. When we got there, Sophie and Beth greeted Nicole at the door, and the confident ones followed Nicole around on her tour. The cats had been fed and were ready to play! Nicole remarked how clean the place smelled, with more than 15 cats in residence, but that’s all thanks to our friends at 217, Inc.

Here is the Pet of the Week video from Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1FTZqFiUUX/

Moore’s Rescue Ranch feeds, waters, scoops, and distributes medication for animals 365 days a year – it is 100% volunteer-based. Help them out by volunteering or donating through their site: Cats – Moore’s Rescue Ranch.

This segment wouldn’t be possible without the help from our friends at Curtis Road Animal Hospital.
