June is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month!

June is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month!

Cat at shelter in cage
If you're shopping on this site, you likely already have at least one cat. But if your household's a cat (or two!) short, perhaps this would be a good time to visit your local shelter.

Every shelter cat you adopt actually saves two lives...the cat you adopt, and the one who can now take his place at the shelter. In volunteering at my local shelter, I've seen some absolutely gorgeous and very sweet kitties who were frightened and alone in cages, waiting for their forever homes. And shelters are awash in cats now after a busy kitten season this spring!

Until more cat parents are responsible and love their cats the way we do, our society will always have the problem of homeless cats. Help that number decrease by one (or two) this June. After all, we have everything you could possibly need for your new addition right here on Old Maid Cat Lady!

Paws Aboard Life Jacket and Designer Life Jackets Keep Pets Safe on the Water

Provide ultimate buoyancy and high visibility to keep pets safe on the water. Designed for dogs, but can also be used for cats. Constructed to provide buoyancy, along with a cozy, secure fit.

Paws Aboard life jackets feature an advanced breathable mesh underbelly for proper draining and drying, which provides your cat more comfort and healthier conditions than traditional pet life jackets made with neoprene, which can cause heat exhaustion and chafing. 

Safety features include:

  • The new reflective strips for maximum visibility
  • Thenew bright neon-yellow color and the handle on top for quick and easy grabbing by hand or with a boat hook

Other features include:

  • Adjustable nylon straps
  • Quick-release buckles
  • Heavy-duty yet more comfortable Velcro® fastening system around the belly and neck to keep securely fastened
  • Available in neon yellow and two prints
  • Sold in 4 sizes. See sizing chart below.

A shipping surcharge of $5 is added for this item.

Sizing Chart:

Size Weight Range Length Neck (Around) Body Girth
XXS 0-6 pounds 6.5" 7"-9" 11"-16"
XS 7-15 pounds 8.5" 8"-12" 15"-19"
S 15-20 pounds 11" 12"-20" 17"-22"
M 20-50 pounds 14" 20"-25" 21"-30"


Be aware that these tend to fit rather snugly so that cats cannot squirm out of them. A cat in the water is going to be a bit panickly and wiggly, and you don't want him falling back in if he slips out of his life preserver as you're fishing him out. Look at the image of the cat in one so you can see how they look when they are fitting properly. Some customers have thought the size they ordered was too small, when in fact it was fitting exactly as it was supposed to.

Born in the wild, on a tropical island where food is scarce and predators are plentiful, a tiny kitten struggles to stay alive. She scavenges for food, has a close call with humans who hate cats, and is subject to the whims of island weather. When she is captured by humans in a TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) program and taken from her mother, Lucy Miracle’s rags-to-riches adventure begins. 

In this epic tale told by Lucy herself, you will feel her terror when she is trapped in a cage. See through her eyes as she is nursed back to health from the brink of death, and share her joy as she accepts the love of her new human family. Will Lucy ever see her mother again? Can she and her human friends stop the man who wants to murder every cat on the island? If she decides to live in a house with humans, will she miss the freedom of the wild? 

Experience life as a feral cat in Taming Me.

 “Taming Me imaginatively describes the adventures and feelings of one tiny island cat—and in the process, helps build support for feral cats and their caregivers everywhere.”
--Becky Robinson, co-founder and president, Alley Cat Allies

 “I was totally engrossed in the life of this little kitten. I found myself hoping and praying she would see the wisdom in giving up the feral life so fraught with danger for a life of love and nurturing indoors.”
--Loretta Swit, actor, artist and activist 

Taming Me masterfully depicts what cats would say about the power of love, patience and understanding to transform lives—both human and feline.”
--Nancy Peterson, cat programs manager, The Humane Society of the United States 

“Unruh’s ability to write and think like a cat is astonishing.”
--Jim MacDougald, president, International Council of the Tampa Bay Region 

“We learn the power of compassion to transform and come to understand that, in Lucy's world and in our own, miracles are possible."
--Bryan Kortis, executive director of New York City's Neighborhood Cats

About OldMaidCatLady.com

We're a small business, founded by a genuine old maid cat lady who loves her cats the same as if they were her children, just like you do yours. All products are shipped directly to you from our suppliers; we don't maintain any inventory. This eliminates double shipping, warehousing and staffing that would drive up costs, allowing us to price our items as reasonably as possible. When it comes to shipping, we charge you only what our suppliers charge us to ship the items to you. Those retailers who offer you "free" shipping are only raising their prices to cover the cost of shipping, and we'd rather be honest with you about it. If our suppliers include shipping in the prices of the items, we offer the same to you. We try to treat all our customers the way we'd like to be treated ourselves, and appreciate your taking the time to get to know us a little.
