Apoquel update: Using reports from NC State, the Veterinary Information Network News Service says toxicologists and emergency care practitioners are trying to spread the word about Apoquel Chewable's strong allure to pets to ensure that the people giving the medication make a concerted effort to safeguard it.

"In the U.S., the FDA received 195 reports of accidental overdoses of Apoquel Chewable in dogs and 70 reports in cats from June 1, 2023, to Sept. 1, 2025."

Update - Adopted!!!

Today we need everyone to share for Eleanor! She is currently at the Anderson County Animal Shelter. Eleanor is a sweet fluffy princess that wants to be your one and only baby. She doesn't get along with other cats, but loves people. Eleanor deserves the chance to shine, but shelter life is not for her. She is currently in the back room to keep her calm, but the chances of her being seen and adopted there are quite slim. This is a tiny shelter that is filled to the brim with kittens, so a black cat needing a single pet home, in a back room cage isn't going to be seen unless we share her far and wide.

If you are interested in adopting please go directly to the shelter during business hours. Ask the awesome staff to see her as she is not immediately obvious as she is in the room behind the regular cat room with the door to the dog runs. Anderson County Shelter is located at 1480 Blockhouse Valley Rd, Clinton. According to Google their hours are
Wednesday Closed
Thursday 9 AM–12 PM
