Murphy is no fan of car travel. Even worse, Murphy hates
trips to the vet. And, since Murphy typically hits the bodily function trifecta
(poop, pee, puke) during road trips, he did not get breakfast before his 9:00
a.m. appointment with Dr. Hamilton. Needless to say, Murphy was not a happy
camper. From the minute he popped out of his carrier, he was all claws! And
muscle. And, that was before Dr. Hamilton looked into Murphy's irritated eye.
Once the exam was over, and medicines were dispensed, he did a casual stroll into his carrier and settled in for a peaceful ride home -- and
BREAKFAST!

Ready to Hit the Road -- Part One
Meet Flippy. He's waiting to choose the right person or family. He's currently interviewing prospective forever candidates in the main cat room in our Oglethorpe Street shelter. Look closely at the Flippy photo. He's happily riding shot gun as he travelled from our New York Avenue Shelter to Oglethorpe. It is not our custom to transport unsecured cats -- but Flippy chose to go carrier-less. Once on the road, he leisurely let himself out of the carrier and made himself comfortable in the passenger seat of the van. This guy is MR. PERSONALITY. He loves to eat, is a real people-pleaser, and would make the perfect travel companion. So, drive on over and meet fabulous Flippy today.
