The commercial washing machine installed in 2005 finally kicked the bucket and after a quick two-day special appeal that raised over $18,000, a new washing machine was installed with a rainy day fund set aside for future repairs. The C Building received a makeover to replace flooring, drywall and windows in two cat housing rooms and the lobby used volunteer check-in, lockers, information center. The old slippery tile flooring was replaced with commercial vinyl and metal frame windows were replaced with insulated vinyl windows and a new sliding glass door for FIV Land, which was relocated from the D Building Lobby so that the adoptable cats could be housed in the Adoption Center. The Rec Room housing cats that prefer 24/7 access to a large enclosed catio had subfloor, windows and flooring replaced and a fresh coat of paint.
