4SPOTLIGHTS How to Build a Winter Cat Shelter Community cats or feral cats can generally survive winter on their own, as they are used to it. But there are some things that you can do to make winter life more comfortable for them. One way that you can help is by building a winter cat shelter. Building a winter cat shelter can be simple and in-expensive. The two preferred styles used for a winter cat shelter are styrofoam bins and Rubbermaid plastic storage bins with removable lids. (Make sure that the brand is Rubbermaid. Other brands may crack in the cold temperatures.) When building your winter cat shelter, smaller is better. A smaller interior means that less heat is needed to keep the cat warm. A small shelter can be heated by one or two cats. A large shelter with only one or two cats inside will remain cold, so two smaller shelters are better than one large winter cat shelter. The placement of your winter cat shelter is important to help keep cats safe from pred-ators. If there are dogs in the area, place the winter cat shelter behind a fence where dogs can’t get in. Another good idea is to have the entrance face a wall so only the cat will be able to get in and out.Be sure that the winter cat shelter is weighted down and hard to move. Cut only a small cat-size doorway to help keep larger predators from getting in and to keep more heat in-side. Cats only need an opening of about ve and a half or six inches in diameter. Cut the doorway several inches above the bottom of the bin to help keep the weather out.Build Options for a Winter Cat Shelter You Can Put Near Your Home A foam cooler has about two inches of thickness and makes the perfect winter cat shelter. It is waterproof and insulated and you can easily create a doorway with a knife or box cut-ter. Cut the doorway a few inches above the bottom of the bin to help keep winter elements outside. Use duct tape around the opening to keep the cats from scratching. Don’t place the winter cat shelter directly on the cold ground. Use two 2x4s or other ma-terials to lift it off the ground. Also, raising the rear of the winter cat shelter slightly higher than the front will help to keep rain from pooling inside and snow from piling up on the roof. You may want to drill a little hole into the side of the winter cat shelter to allow water to drain out should rain blow into the front door. The winter cat shelter should be weighted down to help keep it secure from the wind. Try putting a couple of 5 or 10-pound barbell weights on the oor of the shelter underneath the bedding, or you may use bricks or at, heavy rocks. Insulate the winter cat shelter to increase the comfort and warmth of the cats. Use insu-lating materials in which the cats can burrow. Blankets, towels and newspaper should not be used as they will retain wetness. Straw is a very good insulating material to use because it can absorb more moisture and is less susceptible to rot or mold. A Rubbermaid bin is another good option. (Make sure that the brand is Rubbermaid so that they will not crack in the cold.) These winter cat shelters should be double-insulated. You’ll also need an 802 foot sheet of one-inch thick hard styrofoam, a yardstick, a box cutter and straw for insulation.Here are some instructions from Alley Cat Advocates on how to assemble your winter cat shelter from Rubbermaid containers:•Cut the doorway six inches by six inches in one of the long sides of the bin towards the corner. Cut the opening so that the bottom of the doorway is several inches above the ground to prevent ooding.•Line the oor of the bin with a piece of styrofoam, using the yardstick and box cutter to cut the piece. It doesn’t have to be an exact t, but the closer the better.•In a similar fashion, line each of the four interior walls of the bin with a piece of the styrofoam. Leave a cap of three inches be-tween the top of these styrofoam wall pieces and the upper lip of the bin.•Cut out a doorway in the sty-rofoam interior wall where the doorway has already been cut out in the storage bin.•Measure the length and width of the interior space and place a sec-ond smaller-size bin into the open interior. This bin should t as snugly as possible against the styrofoam wall pieces. Cut a doorway into this bin where the doorways have been cut into the styrofoam and outer bin.•Stuff the bottom of the interior bin with straw to provide both insulation and a comfortable spot to lie down.•Cut out a styrofoam roof to rest on top of the styrofoam wall pieces.•Cover the bin with its lid.What to Put In Your Winter Cat Shelter You should line your winter cat shelter with straw to help keep the area warm and dry. Towels, blankets and newspa-per should not be used as they will soak up wetness. Cats like materials like straw because they can burrow into them to stay warm. Do not put a water bowl in your winter cat shelter. If it should get knocked over, the interior of the winter cat shel-ter will become wet and damp.How to Get a Winter Cat Shelter Where can you get a foam cooler to make a winter cat shelter? These containers are usually used to ship perish-able food and medical supplies – so restaurants and medical ofces might end up throwing them away. Ask them to save the boxes for you or just pick them up from the trash. Some shelter, and rescues stockpile foam boxes and give them away to the community cat caretakers, so check with them rst.Berkshire Animal Dreams Community Cat Program214 Baker Road at the Berkshire Humane Society413-997-2287Once a separate non-prot caring for feral cats, they merged with BHS in 2022.

Help us spread the love this October—one adoption at a time!Top 6 Items to Protect Your Pet This Winter Temperatures are dropping across the country, and many of the northern states are alr eady covered in a blanket of snow. Though the denition of “winter weather” varies by region, everyone agrees it results in colder-than-usual temperatures. In the southern states, they are less likely to get snow, but rain and cold temps can cause their own issues.No matter where you reside, preparing your pet for winter will make them more com-fortable and avoid potentially serious health risks.Winter Booties or SocksJust like humans, it is vital that you keep your pet’s paws warm and dry in winter. Cold, wet weather can increase your, pet’s risk of frostbite or par injuries so protecting their paws with winter boots or socks when they’re outdoors should be your rst winter-safety step. Get your boots early so your pet has time to adjust and get used to walking in them before you go on your winter adventures.Paw BalmYour sidewalks are likely coated in rock salt or some other deicing product if you live in a snowy region. If your pet refuses to wear boots, you still need to protect their paws from the cold and the salt-coated sidewalk. Invest in paw balm for the pads of their feet. It’s even a great way to care for your pet’s paws outside of the winter months, so invest in some to pamper your pet year-round.Winter CoatYour pet most likely has a fur coat built in, but they may need more protection in extreme weather. Adding a winter coat to their wardrobe will help keep them cozy and warm on cold days. Plus, if your pet is always shivering, it’s a great way to keep them comfortable indoors and out.RaincoatNot all winter weather is snowy. So, if you live in an area where temperatures don’t drop below freezing, you won’t necessarily need a full winter coat for your pet. However, tem-peratures may still get very cold, and instead of snow, you could end up with very chilly rain. Keep your pets dry and warm with a raincoat during wet weather.Pet Towel or ShammyOnce you’re back home, you’ll want to quickly get your pet as dry as possible, so keep a pet towel or shammy near the door. As soon as you get in, dry their fur and paws to ensure that they stay warm.Warm Pet Bed and BlanketOnce dry, your pet will want someplace cozy to curl up and get warm, so consider a warm-ing pet bed or a cozy blanket. If you invest in an electric pet bed, be sure to unplug it when not in use and when you’re not home. Keep your pet and home safe!Keep your pet safe all winter with some easy precautions, so you can have more play time in the snow. When you’re ready to come back inside, nothing will warm you and your pet faster than a good, old-fashioned cuddle sesh on the couch and a winter movie marathon. Always be sure to make quality time an essential part of your pet’s care this winter! www.petplace.com

The vivid amber eyes of the aptly named Beamer should set you beaming in no time! Set against this two-year-old’s black and white tuxedo coat, they will light up your days for many years to come. Touched upon in a previous article, here’s a refresher about the color of cats’ eyes. All cats are born with blue eyes, which usually remain that color if they are Siamese. For other breeds, their parents’ genes kick in once they’re born, often producing eyes that are blue-green, green, yellow-green, yellow, amber, or perhaps even orange. Sometimes, their genes duke it out, ending in a draw: odd-colored eyes, such as one yellow and the other green. Even odder than that, if an all-white cat has two blue eyes, it may also be deaf…but if only ONE of its eyes is blue, just the ear on that side may be deaf! Thankfully, Beamer has none of these peculiar genetic palette–related issues to contend with. Sadly, though, due to the demise of his prior human companion, Beamer now needs a new home. The good news is that, though his new residence should be child-free and indoors only, he is ne with other indoor cats. Berkshire Humane Society suggests pairing him up with another cat he already gets along with from among those on offer there, giv-ing you the bonus of two happy pets plus a discounted adoption fee for the two of them, courtesy of the shelter’s Buddy Program. As of this writing, several of the other tuxedo cats awaiting new homes might make a beautiful team with him…though Beamer appears to be the only kitty at the shelter with this amazing eye color. Doo keep in mind that he may also be grieving the loss of his previous person, so give him some extra TLC, too, whether or not you provide him with a feline pal with whom to forge new bonds.Iris Bass, is coauthor of the Cat Lover’s Daily Companion.

7 John Perreault, Berkshire Humane Society’s Executive Director, will celebrate 40 years working for the Pittseld animal shelter on Wednesday, October 9th. Perreault began working for the Berkshire Branch of the Massachusetts Society for the Preven-tion of Cruelty to animals on October 9th 1984, and stayed on when the MSPCA closed the branch for nancial reasons in 1992. He helped transition the shelter to Berkshire Humane Society, a community-based nonprot, becoming the organization’s executive director in 1997. Berkshire Humane Society’s shelter began in the basement of a cowbarn on Cadwell Road. Perreault remembers sitting on railroad ties next to the old shelter with an adopt-able dog, “and only one or two visitors would come by – and that was on a Saturday!” he said. “Knowing where we started and the conditions we worked in, the progress we’ve made in 40 years is awesome,” he added. Berkshire Humane Society now owns three buildings, the Dr. John Reynolds Adop-tion and Education Center and Wellness Clinic, both in Pittseld, and Purradise feline adoption and boarding facility in Great Barrington. The nonprot also runs two Cat-walk Boutique stores, women’s clothing resale shops in Great Barrington and Lenox and has an operating budget of over 3 million dollars. “I know it’s cliché and I say it all the time, but it takes a village,” said Perreault. “It’s all about relationships. I’ve surrounded myself with great people in the community who want to support a great cause. We have something special here and are able to attract generous and compassionate donors and re-tain dedicated employees and volunteers. We have a board of directors who supports changing our trajectory to help more animals.” Perreault is a native of Methuen, Massachusetts. After a visit to his local shel-ter in 1983, he was hooked. “The second I walked in, I knew wanted to work at a shelter and help animals. It wasn’t about money.” After 40 years wearing many hats from front-line animal caretaker to executive director, he says, “Nothing has changed. I love getting up every day to go to work. Each day is different. No one’s getting rich here, but my life is so much richer in other ways.” Staying at one facility for many years is not typical in the animal welfare profes-sion. “People jump around in our eld,” Perreault said. “In the 80s and 90s, the average time someone worked [at a given shelter] was 8 months. With four de-cades of work, Perreault has seen results of his efforts that others miss. Children who sat in his humane education classes are now adults and Perreault believes they are more responsible, not leaving dogs tied up outside all day and spaying and neutering their pets. Throughout the years Perreault has been proud that Berkshire Humane Society has kept its doors open to everyone who needs services and looks at the big pic-ture of animal welfare, always keeping the context of community at the forefront. “We’ve always looked at the gaps and where we can help,” he said. Now entering his fth decade at Berkshire Humane Society, Perreault is hopeful. He knows what the nonprot has done and what it is capable of doing. “There’s still a lot to do here,” he said. “We want to pay off our mortgages and expand our services to northern and southern Berkshire County. “My job is not done here,” he concluded.

This is a reunion nearly 11 years in the making, whenthe two horses met. Berkshire Humane Society214 Barker Rd, , Pittseld, MA 01201Phone: (413) 447-7878, Berkshirehumane.orgMother and Daughter Former Racehorses Reunited at Equine Advocates As an animal rescue organization, we constantly receive calls about equines in need of a home. Earlier this summer, our founder, Susan Wagner, got an unexpected call that we’ll never forget – A request to take in a horse we’d been hoping to give a home to for over a decade. Not only that but a horse whose mother was already in our care. Press Exclusive, a Kentucky-bred Thoroughbred who raced in Canada, was rescued in 2012 by Mindy Lovell of the Ontario-based rescue organization Transitions Thor-oughbreds. Press had raced 48 times and won hundreds of thousands of dollars for her owner, after which time she became a broodmare and gave birth to at least nine foals. Then, she ended up on the Canadian version of Craigslist where a killer buyer purchased her. On her way to slaugh-ter, Press was trampled nearly to death on the truck. She could barely walk when she got off the truck and had four broken ribs, cuts, and lacerations across her entire body. Her head was so swollen and injured from being stepped on that she couldn’t open her eyes. However, Press de-ed the odds. Mindy nursed her back to health and in 2013, Press traveled from Canada to New York State to be permanently retired at our sanctuary. Her amazing story doesn’t end there, though. Swiftie, who raced under the name “X-Squared,” was born in 2010 and was one of Press Exclusive’s last foals. Mindy learned she was racing at Wood-bine Racetrack in Ontario and then was sold to someone in Texas in 2018 to be raced and bred. Susan contacted that person to say if X Squared ever needed a forever home, we would like to retire her at the sanctuary. Years passed with little to no contact and this past June, Susan received a call asking if she was still interested in giving X Squared a home. It was an easy answer – “Yes!” With X Squared’s new life came a new musically-inspired name – Swiftie! She arrived at our sanctuary in July. Due to a chronic health issue that prevents us from turning Press Exclu-sive out on wet ground, she and Swiftie cannot be turned out together. Press Exclusive enjoys her quiet life with supervised turnout at the Main Barn and has another horse, Sergeant York, to keep her company. Swiftie made fast friends with a group of mares who all love to run together in their pasture. “Miraculously, our 11-year quest to give Swiftie a forever home became a reality,” said Susan. You can meet Press Ex-clusive and Swiftie at our Public Open Days. There are two dates left this year – October 12th and Novem-ber 3rd. We hope to see you there!Meet Raven! Raven is Purradise’s resident diva. This petite and beautiful 11-month-old girl is a wiley cat who has had little exposure to much in her young life. So, she’ll need a cat-savvy adopter who is willing to work with her on her quirks. She’s a lovely girl once she has time to get to know you, and is quite affection-ate. But, she would do best in a quiet home where she can be the center of attention. Raven must be a single cat in an adult-only home where she can play and adventure to her heart’s content.If you think Raven would be the perfect match for you, please ll out a feline adoption application and speak with the feline staff at Purradise in Great Bar-rington at (413)-717-4244.

If you’re looking for a sweet older lady, Mina is the dog for you! She is a 9-year-old pit bull mix who is deaf, but that doesn’t slow this lovable girl down! She’s overcome some obstacles in her life, and now she’s ready to steal your heart. Some of Mina’s favorite activities include going out for walks, romping around the shelter pen, meeting new peo-ple, giving kisses, and snuggling on the couch all day. Even though she’s an older gal, she still has pep in her step. She would do great with a couple of walks a day, then would be ne to sleep the rest of the day away. When left alone, she unfortunately can be more than vocal when her people aren’t around and her high pitch could disturb the neighbors. So, she would need a home setting where she can be with her people more often than not and denitely not an apartment setting. Mina also doesn’t prefer the company of other animals, so she’ll have to remain a single lady! She can however live with respectful children aged 10+ years and is mostly, if not com-pletely house-trained. If you think Mina may be a good t for your family, please reach out to Berkshire Humane Society’s kennel staff at (413)-447-7878 ext. 126 to learn more about her and how to meet her!Honey is a three-year-old Cane Corso/Mix female. She is beautiful and large! Please call with any questions.Paisley is an 11-years-young Chihuahua/poodle mix. Although this sweet older girl arrived here with her housemate, she’d prefer to be the only dog in her new home. Paisley can be a bit shy initially, but it doesn’t take long for this lovely little girl to feel comfortable around her new human friends. She’s a low-key and laid-back kind of gal, who also has a spritely side and enjoys walks and small adventures. Once Paisley’s needs are met, she’s happy to curl up beside you or relax on your lap! She’s mostly house-trained and only has accidents overnight, but with a routine in a home, she should do just ne. Paisley does have some ear issues the kennel staff and veterinarians are working on but it shouldn’t deter you from adopting an overall good companion. If you’re interested in Paisley, please reach out to Berkshire Humane Society kennel staff at (413)-447-7878 ext. 126.

Our cat rooms are bursting at the seams with a beautiful and diversied section of adop-tees, one more interesting and exotic than the other. To say we have an abundance of kittens is an understatement. We need your HELP! They need forever homes! Cats make relatively easy and reasonable-to-maintain companions for any age, but are especially appropriate for our seniors and the housebound. Indoor cats often have little need for “extra” veterinary intervention. Once treated, they don’t pick up eas, ticks, worms, and mites. Their dry food diet can be left out, eliminating the need to “get home to feed the cat.” A canned food dish can be offered once or twice a day. Most of our companion kitties can be left alone for a couple of days, as long as water and litter needs are attended to with a quick “sitter check.”. Grooming (un-less it’s your passion) and nail care requirements are easy to accomplish. My favorite grooming tool for my felines is a ea comb. I can get down deep to get out the dead and shedding hair coat. I’ve yet to need to clean the ears of any of my indoor cats. Nails are done weekly with my ngernail clippers – but for those who are neurotic about potential “picks,” we occasionally have gorgeous declawed companions available. Many cat owners on blood-thinning medication require the placement safety net of a declawed cat. Some clients mention that hairballs can be a nuisance – do we have a product for you! In addition to the Katalax and Laxatone products which can be applied to the tongue weekly to prevent hairballs, the Pounce company has come out with a cat treat with Hairball Gel inside of it. My guys love the treats, and when used regularly, I nd that the incidence of cough and wretch seem centuries old. Many brands of dry cat food have hairball prevention formulas also. Cats have great mental health, and they excel at the abil-ity to entertain themselves. But most importantly, the love, attention, affection and comfort they bestow, repays us one hundredfold for our hospitality to them. Keep in mind that our staff knows the feline you can choose that would be great with your resident cat…or a perfect kitty who would love to live with your dog…or the individual who prefers “I want to be alone.” Want a great barn cat or ofce cat? We’ll hand pick them for you! Don’t forget that our cats are all sponsored by Subaru for the Subaru Loves Pets event from October 1-19. All vet work is completed, all cats and kittens have carriers and start-up food ready to go! Feel free to call us with any questions at (518) 828-6044 or visit our website at www.cghs.org. Our Food Bank is open to any from the public in need of pet food or for those wishing to donate food from 11:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. daily. Spay/neuter clinics for cats are $100.00 male or female, including a rabies vaccination and a 5-in-1 feline distemper combination vaccination. Nail clipping services are avail-able every Saturday from 10 to 11 a.m. at the shelter for a donation of $10 for cats and $15 for dogs (currently prepaid only). Charlene Marchand is the Chairperson of the Colum-bia-Greene Humane Society/SPCA Board of Directors. She may be contacted at cghsaaron@gmail.com.

If you watch the rat you intend to buy interacting with other rats his age, you will see if he is the cage bully or if he shares the food bowl nicely with others. You will nd that each rat has his own “personality,” but there are also several distinct actions that make up the universal rat language of happiness and distress. Understanding your rat is often as simple as recognizing these behaviors and signs.Rats Are SocialRats are social animals. They love sleeping in piles, squabbling over crumbs with their cage mates and wrestling together playfully. Your pet may be happiest with other rats, even though most rats are “people pleasers.” They learn to trust humans and actively seek out the attentions of their owners. This tendency sets rats apart from other small mammals such as hamsters, which seem to tolerate rather than enjoy human company.If you spend time with a happy, healthy rat colony, you will notice the rats licking and paw-ing over each other’s ears, coats, noses and tails. Mutual grooming is an affectionate action, reminiscent of young life and the caretaking behaviors of a mother rat. Rats that groom each other are happy rats, and you should consider it a great compliment if your rat starts licking and grooming your ngers or hair during a quiet moment together. He is trying to care for you, not getting ready to take a bite out of your hand.Rats Grind Teeth When HappyRats also grind their teeth when they’re happy. This behavior is called bruxing, and it is often compared to purring in cats. You may not notice this soft sound at rst unless your rat is perched on your shoulder at ear level. Once your rat gets going, it may seem as if the vibration generated by his grinding teeth carries through his entire body, causing him to shake all over. This happy tooth grinding should not be mistaken for the warning tooth chattering that rats make when they are agitated. Your rat’s body language should tell you whether or not he is distressed. If the hair on his back is standing up or if your rat’s whole body is stiffened and alert, eyes steely and focused, then he is likely upset. A rat may make screeching or hissing sounds when he is confronted or attacking another. If your rat shows signs of anger or acts viciously toward another rat in the colony, separate him from the group and give him time to calm down before you reintroduce him to the cage.The Dominant RatPlayful posturing is a regular part of the rat social hierarchy. You’re most likely to witness dominance drama when you introduce a new rat to your colony. After a sniff-over and a brief wrestling match, the less-dominant rat in a new pair may end up pinned on his back on the oor. He should suffer no serious injuries, save injured pride. The squeaks and squeals you hear from your rats when they’re sparring playfully like this are indignant protests (“Hey!”) rather than shrieks of distress. Separate your rats if one bites another hard enough to make him bleed. It’s important to spend time with your rats every day so that you can recognize any abnormal anti-social behavior. If one of your pets seems unusually listless, shows little interest in food or isolates himself from the rest of the pack, then there is probably something wrong with him. Get help from a veterinarian that specializes in small mammals as soon as possible.Say hello to Stumpy. He is an 11-month-old male rat. Stumpy is a sensitive and quirky fellow who wasn’t getting along with the resident rats in his home. Now, this shy but sweet boy is looking for an experienced rat owner, with a calm, quiet home. Stumpy seems to have some sensitivity issues, so his new person will need to be attentive and willing to provide him with a lot of love. He’s also a very food motivat-ed rat, so this will help him acclimate to a new home with positive reinforce-ment. If you have the home life Stumpy requires, please ll out a small animal application and speak with Berkshire Hu-mane Society’s small animal staff at (413)-447-7878 ext. 124

15Dog Wags-Breeds from A to ZDog of the MonthMonthly Dog & Cat PawoscopePawoscoPesHAPPY BIRTHDAY!Libra (September 23-October 22) Croatian Sheepdog The Croatian Sheepdog is an agile, helpful and humble shepherd dog, self-reliant, brave and trustworthy. He is keen and intelligent dog with enormous energy and with a strong need for human companionship. He possesses a well-developed herding instinct and is an excellent watch-dog, the true master of his ock, often running through the back of the herd to get to the point of intervention as soon as possible. The breed possesses an hereditary predisposition for working cattle. Some farmers afrm that their Croatian Sheepdog knows and will single out every head of cattle by hearing its name. In the past, the dog was often used to drive herds of pigs in autumn, and, in one old document, it states that this ver-satile breed even herded the horses. It is both a driving and a gathering dog and, depending on whether it comes from a show or working line, its desire to work stock varies. The Croatian Sheepdog probably originates from dogs which the Croats brought with them in the Migration Peri-od. The oldest found record of a Croatian Sheepdog dates from 1374.DOGS—Ruled by romantic Venus, Libra is the sign of love and marriage. Their goal is to create harmony, beauty and tranquility, so it’s no surprise this sign is associated with the artist, lover and the diplomate. They are known for their charm and have the gift of sensing what others need. Venus-ruled canines have appealing personalities and are deeply attached to other pets and humans. They prefer company rather than be-ing alone and often like to follow their humans around. They’re uncomfortable in a stressful or chaotic environment and value peace and quiet over action and adventure.CATS—If your kitty was born under the Venus-ruled cardinal air sign Libra, chances are they’re a social buttery. Because Venus is the planet of beauty, anyone—or any cat—who claims Libra as their sign is bound to be quite pretty and likable, likely spurring plenty of gushing about how adorable, sweet, or cute they are. Libras, represented by the Scales, are also peacemakers who abhor any kind of conict, so this feline will likely be particularly sensitive to loud noises (hey, reworks) or any discord in your household. On the ip side, they’ll be particularly pleased by pretty, cozy details like a heated cat bed.
