Our Spring Savers FunDrive is one week away! Start your spring cleaning now and donate your unused and unworn items to help our amazing Poppy cats. We are so thankful that PAL's Rescued Treasures Cat Cafe has offered to host our FunDrive at their warehouse location this year! To participate in this event, all you need to do is bring your donations to 4155 N. Rancho Dr. #150 during a designated drop-off time, then our team will take it from there and transport the items to be weighed at Savers, where The Poppy Foundation is paid per pound of hard and soft goods! Our Savers FunDrive is the purr-fect reason to get your spring cleaning done and help fundraise for The Poppy Foundation! Please note: We cannot accept early donations- we do not have space to store them before the event. For more information on the event and the items we can accept, please check out our Savers FunDrive link below! |

Last month, we organized a fundraiser to help us raise money to purchase a new dental machine and annual vaccinations for our Poppy cats. Thanks to your generosity, we were able to raise over $7,000! Check out our new dental machine- complete with tools for dental extractions and cleanings. Dental health is a crucial aspect of a cat’s overall well-being and is vital to the long-term care of our cats. Thank you so much for your donations and helping us keep our Poppy cats healthy and happy! |

Dr. Gray is one of our many cats who received their yearly vaccinations! Most of our cats got FVRCP, Feline Leukemia, and Rabies booster vaccinations. In addition, we also weighed and trimmed every Poppy cat's nails! |
|
Being able to track each cats' weight allows us to continuously monitor their health status and provide both ongoing and preventative care. Check out Ginger receiving her annual FVRCP vaccination! |

If you'd like to continue to donate to this fundraiser, please click below! All additional funding will be used to continue to provide preventative care like bloodwork and speciality exams, as well as ongoing care for our chronically ill and special needs Poppy cats. |
