Washington Emergency Management Division warned:
It's worth pointing out that Western Washington & Oregon are noticeably red in this map. If you had trouble breathing the last couple of summers due to smoke, it'd be a good idea to invest in an N-95 mask for your go kit and better filtration systems soon. #wawildfire

Not Strictly Toledo: Cat’s Meow SNAP! Of Lewis County low-cost spay & neuter has room for 5 more females & 20 males on their April 14 Round Up.
Find out how to get your kitty (even feral cats) on the calendar - spots fill fast!
Link: http://tinyurl.com/yykrvxp9
At The Cat's Meow Spay, Neuter & Adoption Project, we are driven by a single goal; to reduce euthanasia as a means of population control for Southwest Washington cats.
Since 2009 we have worked tirelessly to provide cat owners and caretakers with affordable spay/neuter, allowing them to keep felines that they may have otherwise had to surrender to kill-shelters.
In addition to high-volume spay/neuter, we offer rehoming assistance, training to those feeding bottle babies, assistance in handling & taming feral kittens and cats, volunteer opportunities and education in many aspects of feline behavior and care.
