T&T's Philanthropic Mission
T&T has always been a big supporter of local shelters and animal welfare organizations in need of food, supplies or financial donations. But making a donation to help the cause simply no longer felt like enough of an impact. So T&T has committed to supporting one of the neediest shelters in a 2-hour radius of Bloomington. The shelter is the Crawford County Humane Society in Robinson, IL. CCHS functions solely off past grant money and operates with the narrowest margins possible. The shelter is filled with hard-working, committed and loyal staff who are fulfilling a major need for Crawford County residents. Unfortunately this shelter has an overabundance of cats. They have taken all of the necessary steps to get the cat population under control. But cat adoptions are slow, and when a shelter has 250+ cats, it is hard to dig out of the hole. T&T has paired with the Crawford County Humane Society to begin fostering cats within the T&T store location. In the future, T&T hopes to support adoption days with the shelter and we plan to continue to take regular supply donations to the Crawford County shelter. This is one small step toward helping a needy shelter that is supporting a great cause.
Current Foster Cats for Adoption (August 12, 2022)
Pepita, Moose and Mira: This mom and her babies are looking for their forever homes. Pepita is very affectionate and loving cat. She meows for pets and wants all the cuddles. She is ready to retire from the mom life to finally be a kitten herself. She has been outdoors for about two years and is ready to finally relax and put her guard down.
Moose is a cuddly and playful kitten. He loves to explore and play with his toys, especially the catnip filled ones. He was the first of the three to explore the store with a confident attitude.
Mira is still a bit shy and still trying to figure out the indoor life. She loves to play with her toys and once she realizes human hands aren't scary she'll ask for all the pets. In her free time she naps and follows her brother around.
Mira and Moose have been through a lot together. They are best buds and would love to go home together. Ideally we would adopt them out as a bonded pair but understand that can be a lot to commit to. As long as they go to safe and loving homes that is all the matters.
All three seem to tolerate dogs and other cats. The kittens will easily warm up to other animals at their young age. Mamma cat may take a bit longer to warm up to other animals but will eventually do so. She is used to adapting a lot because of her outdoor living. These cats are fosters through Pets Alive and their fee is $100 each cash or check ONLY!!

Clover(1 year 9 months): Clover is a very sweet and petite kitty. She loves to play with her friend ace, all the toys, and every kid that comes in. She does great with cats, dogs, and children. She is still a little timid and gets scared when you walk by her or up to her at a fast pace. She just needs some patience and someone who doesn't mind bending down to her level. She is ready to be scooped up and taken to her forever home! Adopted Aug 2022
Ace(1 year): Ace is a cuddly ball of fun. He loves to play and steal any treats he can find. He doesn't mind cuddle time and even enjoys being held like a baby. He does great with cats and kids. Ace seems to be a little feisty with dogs, however we believe it is only because he is overwhelmed by all the different dogs in and out everyday. He loves our owners dog who consistently visits. Ace also does come with some minor health issues. He has a weaker immune system which causes him to get sick easily. He seems to suffer more with congestion, sneezing, and goopy eyes but has done great for the past two months. These symptoms seem to appear when he is under stressful conditions and will unfortunately be a life long issue. Ace is more then ready for his forever person to scoop him up and give him cuddles for life. ADOPTED Jul 2022
