Watch Out For Lilies

Lilies can kill cats!

Lilies of all kinds are poisonous for cats. Ingesting any part –leaves, stems blossoms- any kind of lily – Easter lilies Stargazers, Tigers, Daylilies – even lilies of the valley results in serious or fatal damage to cats. Be sure your pets aren’t in danger.

 

For more information about dangerous plants and many common household hazards go to http://www.catchannel.com.

 


The shelter is in need of repairs!

If you are handy with tools and would like to help, please call Tina at 562-CATS for more information.
