Many isolated residents of Sheridan could use some temporary companionship to get through this unusual year. The Sheridan Dog and Cat Shelter has developed a new program called the Comfort Cat for Christmas.
The program offers residents the opportunity to house a cat during this holiday season, without an obligation to keep the cat, to keep residents company who may otherwise be alone or isolated and unable to visit family.
During an appearance on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse, The Dog and Cat Shelter director Jill Moriarty said she asked shelter employees in the cat department to select those cats that have the ability to quickly adapt to new environments.
