Pet of the Week: Bebe
Bebe is a 7 year old female with a thick coat of white and black fur. She is a quiet girl who enjoys being petted. She is a bit intimidated if she's with many cats but one or two equally quiet, mature cats would be OK. We do not know if she's ever lived with dogs. Bebe has been spayed, microchipped and vaccinated. Please call Save Our Strays Inc. at 727-481-5262 for information on adopting.
Loving Dedication
This dedication was created by Corinne who adopted Elliott from us in the spring of 2010. Elliott was adopted out as a kitten in July 2003 but returned to us in January 2010. Corinne adopted him shortly thereafter. He was found to have cardiomyopathy several months after he was adopted. Corinne didn't care. Elliott was loved and cared for until his death on March 5, 2012.

Gulfport Pet Project
The Gulfport Pet Project is an ongoing project where artists Anna Hamilton and Mary Megan Barrett are raising money for Save Our Strays and Limbo Chihuahua, through Murals for Mutts. Murals for Mutts raises money for animal welfare by painting murals on highly visible walls in communities around the country. Your pet’s portrait can be painted on a building in Gulfport, Florida!
Price: $100 for cats and dogs; other animal available on request. Space is limited. Contact Dawn to reserve your pet’s spot on one of Gulfport’s local businesses. Great gift idea for a pet lover!

Foster an SOS Cat
Adult and senior cats that were previously adopted are coming back at an alarming rate - due to the economy.
We are actively seeking volunteers willing to foster these displaced cats. These felines are looking for stability in their lives again and are usually very affectionate. Foster participants must be able to drive, have their own transportation and be available for a home visit from a current volunteer prior to fostering. Litter and cat food are provided if needed. Can you open up your heart and your home to help one of these disposed cats that has been uprooted from its loving home? Please call 727-481-5262 for details or email us at sos@saveourstraysinc.com.
