This document discusses rehabilitating animals considered "nonrehabilitable" and providing sanctuary for difficult animals. It explores whether any animal is truly nonrehabilitable and ways to help animals with major behavior issues through placement or other non-lethal options. It outlines the responsibilities of running a sanctuary, including providing for animals' physical, emotional and mental needs through stimulation and training. Sanctuaries are meant to be permanent homes where animals live out their natural lives, unlike shelters which seek to place animals.

Examples of safe, homemade toy ideas are given using common household items. Guidelines are provided on toy safety and materials to avoid. Overall it aims to educate owners on keeping parrots engaged and occupied through environmental enrichment.
Play is important for parrots' mental, physical, and emotional health, as it replaces natural activities like foraging and socializing. Providing toys that allow for different types of play, like destruction, manipulation, and foraging, is critical. Homemade toys can be customized and are cheaper than store-bought ones. It's important to consider safety and a parrot's preferences when selecting or making toys. Positive reinforcement training can also be used to encourage play.

Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by persistent unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) performed in an effort to manage associated anxiety. Common compulsions include excessive handwashing, cleaning, or checking behaviors. OCD is linked to abnormalities in brain regions involved in decision making and cognitive control like the frontal lobes and basal ganglia. Symptoms include obsessions, compulsions, anxiety, and disturbances to daily functioning and self-esteem. Treatment focuses on limiting compulsive behaviors without interrupting them, teaching coping strategies to manage anxiety, and providing a structured and predictable environment.

Things You Should Know About Vegan Leather BagsLuli Bebé
Whenever you are going out shopping or on vacation, make sure to carry all the necessary things in it. Thus, look for fashionable vegan leather bags to stuff all the necessary things.
Stuffed animals from the past were made of natural materials like cotton, fur, and wood shavings that were biodegradable. Today's stuffed toys are made of synthetic polyester derived from oil, along with synthetic stuffing materials. Polyester production involves toxic chemicals that pollute the environment and expose workers. The synthetic materials in today's stuffed toys are not biodegradable and leach chemicals that can cause health issues when they break down. The document encourages not buying new stuffed toys and keeping indoor spaces clean to avoid these toxins.
This document provides a long list of suggestions for keeping cats entertained at night so they do not wake their owners, ranging from the plausible (providing toys and scratching posts) to the outlandish (building moats or sleeping in a cage). Some highlights include releasing mice, using a laser light show, creating a "Kitty TV Show", building a cat tree house, and putting cats in giant hamster balls. The overall tone is humorous and suggests increasingly ridiculous solutions to the problem of cats waking owners at night.
Conversation and vocabulary activity all about different kinds of animals and related concepts. The conversational portions of the lesson reinforce the presented vocabulary. This presentation takes about an hour to deliver.
Cats have been kept as pets for centuries and cat beds have evolved from simple piles of soft material to more elaborate pieces of furniture. There are now thousands of cat bed options in various sizes, shapes, colors and styles. When choosing a cat bed, consider your cat's preferences, the available space in your home, and how the bed will look in the location you plan to place it. Proper care of the cat bed, such as regular cleaning and minor repairs, will help it last longer and remain comfortable for your cat.

2. What Makes Pillows for Paws Unique?
Pillows for Paws uses User Design Principles to provide enrichment items to
NYC shelter animals
Volunteers (informants) embedded in the NYC Animal Care & Control facility give
us direct feedback on issues, needs, and how our products are working.
ACC is the county’s largest shelter. Over 30,000 pets pass through each year.
One of the first places to get the budget ax.
The need is great. The resources are few.
3. Our Pillows
Issue:
Durability
Beds were thrown out when inner layer (batting) began to
shift
Seams easily split due to rough usage by animal and
fragile fabric
Cost
Easier to find fabric for donation than batting
Easy to clean and sanitize
Must be able to endure multiple washes and be easy to
dry
Looks
Research has shown that shelter animals placed in cute
settings are more easily adopted
Time
Adding durability can increase production time
4. Batting – Pillows for Paws First User Research Test
Because we all know cats will ly on anything, even plastic bags
Polyester Batting
Synthetic product
Less durable
Requires more quilting
Scratchy when not encased in fabric
Thick, harder to sew on machines
Cotton Batting
Natural product
More durable
Requires less quilting
Very comfortable to work with
Thinner, so it’s easier to sew
5. Batting – Pillows for Paws First User Research Test
This is LilyBeth. LilyBeth has an obvious preference. LilyBeth could not be
persuaded by my arguments of why cotton was a better choice.
LilyBeth is a traitor.
About half the cats (50%) preferred the thicker Polyester batting.
The other half showed no preference at all. Polyester won!
6. Hammocks: Success or Failure?
The public loves seeing cats sleeping in
hammocks. We got a special request and
we tried to meet the need.
Can only be used at adoption events in
stand-alone cages.
Due to logistics within the ACC facility,
they need to be laundered separately if
they are to be used more than once.
7. Hammocks
Pillows for Paws Design Research Failure?
Despite many hours of discussing design and price points with our imbedded ACC
informant, the information we received was incorrect
One of the special requests we received was to make sure the attachment hooks
separate. Easier to launder hammocks and keeps the price point down.
The hooks were lost and never reunited with the hammocks. Instead workers cut
the hammocks in an attempt to make them reusable. In actuality they made them
completely unusable.
Lesson: We relied on information from one source. We should have double-
checked with other individuals and organizations. This was a costly mistake in both
time and money.
8. Hammocks Redesigned
Easy to use hooks that are permanently attached
Dual fabrics: One for comfort in cooler weather the other for warm weather
Reinforced seams
9. Our Toys
Catnip
Made with scraps of fabric and batting leftover from the bed making
A brand new product line made for the price of catnip ($25/lb)
Must be a minimum size (2.5” x 3.5”) otherwise they fall through the bars
of the cages
10. Our Toys
Cat Dancers
Biggest issue:
need to sanitize after use
Created a design that used Human Grade
Chopsticks
Can sanitize using dishwasher, autoclave
or washing machine
Cost was minimal ($2.00/dz)
Made with scraps of yarn
Great short term project for people who
knit or crochet. Can be made in a few
minutes. Can be safely embellished in a
multitude of ways.
11. Our Toys
Cage Dancers
Old idea
Easy to make
Great for kids at education event
Perfect for kittens who haven’t yet
developed the nasal receptors for catnip
Great for cats who don’t like catnip
12. Our Toys
Jingle Balls
Plastic is not sterilizable. So must be a
single use item.
Can get expensive
Issue:
Solution:
Recreated the toy using less expensive,
disposable products
Everybody loves finding a use for TP rolls
Also great for rabbits. They like to play too.
13. OurToys
TigerTugs
Issues:
Need toys good for big dogs and heavy
chewers because smaller dogs are easier
to foster
Almost all the dogs at ACC are
Pitt Bulls
Rope toys are not allowed due to issues
regarding sterilization
Solutions:
Created a rope-like toy using fleece
(unwoven fabric) knotted to increase
durability
Easy to teach and can be done by
anybody
Toy can be created for $0.20 to
$0.50/each (depends on the cost of
fleece)
14. Our Toys
Flying Saucer Toys
Originally designed by Gennie Perez, volunteer designer. Made of
donated over-felted wool and a squeaker.
Cannot recreate with wool because it would be too expensive and it’s too
rare as a donation item.
Re-designed with fleece and an inner lining of bulletproof nylon.
Recreated same touch and feel but a more reasonable price point.
15. Our Toys
Spiders
100% a Gennie Perez masterpiece. Took
elements from Flying Saucer toy, Tiger Tugs
& a no-sew catnip toy.
Other than technically being Gennie’s
supervisor, I cannot take any credit except
for recognizing genius. Part of being a good
supervisor is knowing when not to mess with
greatness.
16. Rabbits
The most forgotten of
ACC’s adoptable animals
Issues:
Rabbits need to chew. Their front
teeth continuously grow and
must be worn down or they will
become ingrown.
Despite what Bugs Bunny thinks,
carrots are not good for rabbits.
They are too sweet and can cause
health problems.
Solutions:
TP roll treats & toys
People love finding a use for all
those TP rolls. Also provides lots
of roughage for the rabbits.
We also make toys out of
commercially available
products purchased from
pet stores
17. Rabbit Toys & Treats
A Unique Problem
There are many treats for rabbits that should be of minimal or no cost that
are difficult to source inside of NYC
Applewood from unsprayed trees
Most orchards in the Northeast use active pest management. This means many trees
in an orchard may or may not have been sprayed.
Willow branches from a reliable source
It is illegal to harvest any botanical item from a State or National park. Need a
private source with a clean water supply
Dried corn husks
Does not need to be organic, but cannot be sprayed. A rarity in the Northeast
We continue to work to find appropriate, reliable, low-cost sources of
these supplies
18. To Be Announced
Items on the Drawing Board
Rabbit Pillows
Must be completely edible. Will be made on a loom using Sisal or Sea Grass for
warp and wefted with willow, corn husks or other edible materials
Hammocks & toys for small mammals
Many small mammals are abandoned at ACC everyday. Guinea pigs, gerbils,
hamsters, ferrets, mice. They are passed along to private rescue organizations that
specialize in those animals.
Toys & Treats for Birds
Like small mammals, many are abandoned and sent to private rescue organizations.
There are many species of birds in captivity, each with their own special needs.
Tools for Wildlife Rehabilitation
We meet special needs as we can using the same Design Research principles we use
with all our other users.
19. To Be Announced
Items on the Drawing Board
We have worked hard to develop relationships with
veterinarians who specialize in exotics, rehabilitators,
rescue groups and those who adopt exotics. We consult
them to determine their needs with each species and we
actively seek feedback on all our products.
