BACK TO SCHOOL CAT ADOPTION SPECIAL!

Ten Lives Club is holding a "Back To School" adoption special!  The TLC shelter is beyond capacity and filled with dozens of cats and kittens waiting for their forever home.  Find a new furry family member to take home!

Adoption fees are 50% off from August 7 through the 15th at their cat shelter in Blasdell, their Walden Galleria Adoption Store and some of their off-site adoption locations.

Adult cats age 9 months and over are $25.00 (Reg. $50.00) and kittens (under 9 months) are $75.00 (Reg. $125.00) each.  

All of our kitties have been spayed/neutered, tested for FIV & FIP, vaccinated (rabies & distemper), treated for fleas & ear mites and given a thorough health check prior to adoption.  *Some kittens are too young for their first rabies vaccine.*

NEW TEN LIVES CLUB ADOPTION LOCATION AT GALLERIA MALL!

The new Ten Lives Club Walden Galleria adoption location was previously occupied by the SPCA.  It is located just inside the main entrance next to Lord & Taylors on the ground level in the Walden Galleria Mall in Cheektowaga, New York.   

Ten Lives recently celebrated our Grand Opening Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at the Galleria on Saturday, October 24.  Hundreds of visitors, along with dozens of TLC volunteers came out for our event!

The very same day, we received a very generous donation from Joe Kozoil of CatLadder.com.  Joe brought us 3 beautiful handmade cat ladders for our kitties in the showcase windows Saturday morning and they LOVE them!

CatLadder.com makes unique cat furniture pieces made to order.  Each cat ladder is individually hand crafted!  You pick the color of the stain, carpeting for the steps and how many steps/height of the cat ladder you would like for your cat(s).  Be sure to check them out at catladder.com and order one for your kitty!  THANK YOU JOE & CATLADDER.COM!

 

 TLC volunteers baked DOZENS of kitty cupcakes that were handed out to all of the visitors who stopped in to visit the kitties on Saturday.   

THANK YOU to all of the dedicated TLC volunteers who took the time to bake & decorate these yummy cupcakes!

We held a Theme Basket raffle and the "Whisker Wheel" was on hand for visitors to take a spin to win prizes! 
 
Brenda Bushley, long time dedicated TLC Volunteer, had her handmade jewelry for sale with 100% of the proceeds to benefit Ten Lives Club - THANK YOU BRENDA! 

TLC at Galleria had ELEVEN adoptions in just ONE DAY during the Grand Opening Day!
  

Since TLC took over the SPCA store location on October 6, we've had 62 adoptions in just 28 DAYS at this location.  That is phenomenal!

TLC is expecting well over 200 cats & kittens to find their forever homes by January 1, 2016 from the new Galleria location alone!

CONGRATULATIONS to Kristen Peck, Ten Lives Club Galleria Store Manager, for doing such an AWESOME job!  YOU & YOUR VOLUNTEERS ROCK!  

Be sure to stop by and visit Ten Lives Club at the Galleria Mall to find your next furry family member.   

TLC at Galleria is also looking for volunteers.  With the upcoming Holidays, they are extending their hours through the week until 8pm.  This TLC location will also be open on Sundays from 11am to 6pm.

Pictured right is Madison, our first volunteer to earn her t-shirt, with Little Man, our FIV+ cat that was recently adopted from the Galleria location.  Congratulations Madison! 

Volunteers  who complete 15 hours of service will receive a FREE Ten Lives Club t-shirt!   Volunteers who are age 16+ & in need of community service hours will receive a FREE TLC t-shirt after completing 20 hours of service!

Please consider VOLUNTEERING for a 12pm to 4pm shift or a 4pm to 8pm shift.

TEN LIVES CLUB BRICK CAMPAIGN "KICKS-OFF"!

TEN LIVES CLUB BRICK CAMPAIGN "KICKS-OFF"!

The future holds many hopes & visions for Ten Lives Club.  In order to continue our efforts to save and re-home as many kitties as possible while also assisting many other rescue organizations across Western New York, we need to build a warehouse on our shelter property.  The warehouse would store supplies, equipment and pallets of litter and food we receive from all over the country.  It would also serve as a pet food pantry for other rescue groups & compassionate individuals who care for feral colonies and strays.

Planned Warehouse - awaiting actual blueprints & sketch.

Ten Lives Club also plans to move our ringworm facility from South Buffalo to a new state of the art isolation/contagious facility within the warehouse.  Currently, we pay a steep rent to house and treat kitties with ringworm and other highly contagious diseases.  With the addition of the warehouse on property we already own, we would no longer have that additional monthly expense!

The Ten Lives Club shelter in Blasdell sits on 2.8 acres of land. The planned warehouse would be 48' x 81' x 16' built on the back lot of our property. Inside will hold our inventory, the planned isolation center, an inside area concession stand with outside awning for future fundraisers & even three dog runs so TLC can start working with dog rescue groups to show their dogs for adoption.

  

Back lot on our property where warehouse will be built.

If we raise enough funds we would also like to put a feral enclosure off of this building!  

Recently, TLC had a delivery of 41 pallets of cat and dog food.  In order to store this much needed donation as well as many other donations of food, litter and other supplies, we currently pay $1,000 per month to rent a space in the industrial facility next door.  Having a large storage space is a necessity!  Not only to store our own food and supplies but to share with other rescue groups.  Some of the rescue groups we provided food from this donation were: Joyful Rescues, Operation Pets, Feral Cat Focus, City of Buffalo Animal Shelter, Save a Pet, Tabbytown, Best for Pets, Bob’s Rescue, Niagara County SPCA, Almost Home AnimalSanctuary, Empire Rescue, SOS Cat Rescue & Supporting Rescue Alliance - to name a few!

Ten Lives Club also provides food to feral cat colony caretakers and others who have spayed or neutered cats on their barn properties.  With this recent donation, we were able to supply those who feed community cats in Tonawanda Island, Angola, Olcott, South & North Buffalo, Collins, East Concord, Salamanca, West Seneca, the Buffalo Marina, Boston, Colden, Hamburg, Blasdell, Cheektowaga, Lackawanna, Buffalo East Side, Tonawanda, Niagara Falls, Springville& Arcade.

The cats who come into our care depend on Ten Lives Club! Many rescue organizations & compassionate individuals who care for feral colonies and stray cats depend on us as well.  With the addition of our own warehouse facility, Ten Lives Club would save over $2,000 per month in rental costs for storage space and ringworm containment. 

Please consider donating a TLC Warehouse Campaign Brick in memory of a beloved pet, family member or friend that will forever be displayed in our new warehouse facility.  Businesses and other community organizations can also proudly display their sponsorship. Groups or families can donate a brick together with each participant proudly engraved! 

  

Each brick is 4" x 8" and includes an engraved message along with an optional picture of a cat, dog, heart or angel ($5 additional).  The cost to donate a TLC Warehouse CampaignBrick is $500. They will be prominently displayed on the East side of the 48' x 81' x 16' warehouse facility.

Feral Cat Stories: From Rescue To Love - by Susan L. Sellingsloh

Good Friend & Animal Advocate of Ten Lives Club - Susan Sellingsloh - recently published "Feral Cat Stories", available on Amazon. 

Susan captures the struggles, challenges, and joys of the people who discover feral cats and take action to help them.

All 23 stories are based in Western New York, an area that includes Buffalo and Niagara Falls.  Ten Lives Club and community volunteers who focus on maintaining some groups of feral colonies are included in several of the stories throughout Susan's book.

People find help from Feral Cat FOCUS, a non-profit organization providing fundamental services for feral and free-roaming cats.

The stories show how the Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) program not only stops the cycle of unwanted reproduction but gives the cats and their caregivers the transition from rescue to love.

This beautifully illustrated book will not only entertain you, but educate and inspire you.

All royalties from the sale of this book will go to Feral Cat FOCUS of Western New York. 

Please purchase a copy of "Feral Cat Stories" and help support Sharon, Feral Cat Focus and their vision to help reduce and manage the overwhelming numbers of feral cats who need help and assistance!

BLACK CATS ARE GOOD LUCK - ADOPT A FURRY BLACK ANGEL FROM TLC!

Black cats are good luck! Black cats are beautiful! Consider adopting a black cat - they are the last to find their forever homes but they have so much love to give! 

 Onyx~ Beautiful 1 year old Black Medium Hair Boy!

Available for Adoption at the TLC Shelter!

Ten Lives Club visited the Buffalo City Shelter on 10/21 and pulled 9 cats to take back to the shelter. Please consider adopting a black kitty - they are the best but many people are put off about adopting them due to some of the negative stigmas that have long been associated with black cats.

Black Magic~ 10 Month Old Male Long Haired Beauty!

Available for Adoption at the Main TLC Shelter~!

Ten Lives Club is promoting all of our black and orange adult cats for $25 each!  Plus, every black or orange kitty adopted from the TLC shelter will be provided with a three month supply of food!  All adoptions also include a FREE VET VISIT certificate valued at up to $40!  

Sweet Little Penny!~ 6 Month old Black Domestic Short Hair Kitten~

Available for Adoption at the Main TLC Shelter!

 

We have four FIV+ black cats that have been in shelter life for two years or more - please give them a chance as well!  TLC will pay up to $300 for a pet security deposit to your landlord or apartment complex if you adopt an FIV+ cat or older cat. So if a high security deposit is keeping you from getting a cat, talk to your landlord and we can help.  You will need to show a proper lease agreement at the time of adoption to qualify for the $300 pet deposit assistance.

 Radar!~ Adult Male Black Domestic Short Hair - FIV+

Available for Adoption at the TLC Shelter!~

Call Ten Lives Club at 716-646-5577 to adopt one of our beautiful, furry black angels TODAY!
