Dear Poppy Foundation family, Thank you for all of your support this year as we ended one chapter and transitioned into the next one- along with a new house for our Poppy cats! Keep reading to catch up on all of our latest news. |

As always, we are so thankful for your donations and support. Right now, we are in need of donations that will help purchase medications and medical supplies for our chronically-ill cats, like Lexi. Lexi is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice daily, which she gladly takes when her shot is followed up by an extra delicious treat! Providing insulin, as well as syringes, blood glucose monitoring, and speciality food, is costly, but we are committed to our medically-dependent cats like Lexi. If you are able to make a donation to our Poppy cats, please click below. We are dedicated to our Poppy cats for the rest of their lives and honored to have your support in caring for them. Thank you for your support! |

Our Giving Tuesday event at the end of November was a huge success! Our amazing community donated over $7,000 that will help feed, medicate, and care our Poppy kitties for almost a month and we are so unbelievably thankful for your support. We are so humbled by the generosity of our amazing, cat-loving community and want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to everyone who donated, sent supplies, shared our social media posts, filled out volunteer applications, and pledged their time and effort for the care of our Poppy cats. Thank you! |

At the beginning of December, we hosted our Poppy housewarming paw-ty and yard sale. We loved being able to welcome all of our supporters to our new home and our kitties loved the extra attention! Thank you to everyone who came and loved on our kitties and dropped off donations! |

Poppy cats Ricky (left) and Socks (right) have been enjoying the cooler weather and going for short walks around the yard on their new, hot pink safety harnesses! We are so thankful to all of our volunteers who closely monitor these boys and allow them to get some fresh air and new smells! |

For the third year in a row, Centennial Hills Animal Hospital has sponsored ALL of our Poppy cats and donated each cat a gift! We are so grateful for their kindness and help to make our kitties' Christmas wishes come true! We want to extend a huge thank you to our Centennial Hills Animal Hospital friends for their steadfast support, and Bri and Nora for coordinating this kind donation! |

If you would like to send our kitties some paw-liday presents, please check out our Amazon and Chewy wishlists which ship your donations directly to us. Our most needed supply list is below. We are most in need of canned cat food, high efficiency (HE) laundry detergent, 33 gallon trash bags, and paper towels. |
