Come & Cheer in Support as TOCP Shelter Cats Compete for Best in Show! January 18, 2012

Yes, the cats and kittens  have been practicing on the “cat walk” so they can be at their best  to compete for the ribbons.  There has been some serious groom time and manis and pedis all around – bathing is just around the corner (any volunteers to help?)  It is hard to believe this wonderful event is upon us already and we are so thrilled to have been  invited back.  We had a great time last year with our shelter cats earning ribbons and even getting adopted.  Two of TOCP’s cats actually were adopted to be professional show cats. Not bad for a bunch of kids off the streets.  So, please come join us for the show and cheer on TOCP’s very best.  Who knows? You may be able to adopt a blue ribbon winner.

The Cats are Hitting the Road in 2012 January 13, 2012

TOCP Mobile Adoption Center

Big changes are in store for The Oregon Cat Project in 2012. With 400 cats rescued in our first year and we are looking at 1000+ in this, our second year, we have decided to set the bar a little higher for the coming new year. Visibility remains our biggest obstacle here at The Oregon Cat Project, so we have decided to take our show on the road and we cant do it without you. Beginning late spring, we plan to have our new mobile adoption center hit the road, complete with kitties, to spread the word of rescue, adoption, and spay and neuter. Funding for this project should run approximately $50,000 for the bus, its remodel, wrap, and a full tank of gas. Portland has nothing like this and we will be the cat’s meow, so to speak. We will be on the road at least 20 days a month showcasing our cats and offering resources and advice for cats in need at malls, seasonal events,and even the local grocery store. Please, please open your heart and your wallet and contribute whatever you can to make this happen by April 2012. Our goal is to become the largest feline only rescue in Oregon/Washington in this, our third year, but we can not do it without you and your contribution. For donations of $250 or more, your name or your pet’s name (dogs welcome, too – we don’t discriminate) will be posted on board the bus as a sponsor. Naming rights and a picture of your cat on the bus will go to the largest contributor over $10,000 Help us bring the cats to their new families and get us on the road.
