ROAR is a brand-new, cat-inspired gift gallery. The owners have hand-picked a number of cat supplies (like toys, treats, etc), as well as a great selection of goods for humans dedicated to feline enthusiasts. No tacky stuff here! They have curated a nice set of things that I wouldn't be embarrassed to have in my home. It's a small shop but they've packed a lot in there and will continue to search for great looking goods. I particularly loved the little handmade, felted wool plant holder kitties! I bought one but am eyeing more. Meow!

Our service was super friendly and fun. We will definitely come again the next time we're in town. Now the note. There is some confusion about bar seating. Ive seen a few negative reviews from people who were told there would be a wait when there were empty seats at the bar. This happened to us our first time too. Like other people, we were confused why we couldn't sit there. In our case we were told it was a 45 min wait. This time we had reservations and were shown to our seat right away. If Ravens Manor would just clear this up for people it would help eliminate some of those negative reviews. OH! One more critically important note: REDRUM is supposed to be spelled with backwards letters as it's a mirror image. Cmon Ravens Manor! LOL

I got a small body pillow and a refillable carrot from The Spoiled Cat, he immediately loved them. Batted the carrot around, chewed and kicked the body pillow.

Go early if you want more choices, I got there a little after lunch and their eggs and avocados were gone. Not too many designs left for the body pillows either. There were a couple of wands, carrots, and eggplants. If I recalled correctly, the body pillow was $10 and the carrot was $12.

They are all about catnip and stuffing it in different shaped toys that keep your kitty entertained! The Catnip Body pillow, a long narrow tube shape, is their most popular item. The cats hug it, kick it with their back paws, rub all over it and when the catnip knocks them out, they sleep on it! They also have carrot shaped ones, small love triangles and other cat toys. The body pillows come in all patterns so you can pick colors you like or colors that go with your house, which is what I do. I've bought the gray and black leopard print and recently, a really cool geometric print in gray and white. When I walked in the door today with the body pillow, the two cats immediately start sniffing, the scent is that strong and they got so excited. I thought my older cat wouldn't be interested so I only bought one today and that was a bad decision. My two cats who are normally BFFs were literally fighting over the pillow! I'll be going back next week to buy another! If you have a cat or know someone who does, stop by their stand and buy some homemade catnip toys. They are $9 and worth every penny. If you want to see pics of happy cats, check out their Facebook page under The Spoiled Cat.

I moved to Kelso in July 2021. For two years, I saw a small cat across the street many times. She…read morewould often be on the sidewalk near an intersection where cars speed past way too fast. I would cringe every time a car went by... Twelve months ago, she came across the street to check me out while I was outside my back door. She was very shy and scared, but I could see she was also very hungry and thin. She was asking me for help, I could tell. Over a period of several weeks, I gained her trust and was feeding her daily outside. We became very close; she was very, very sweet. Winter was coming, so I built her a shelter out of a large 2x2x3 foot plastic storage bin with a lid. I insulated the interior walls, and I even put an electric heating pad inside. (there just happened to be an electric outlet in the outside wall, right next to the bin.) I placed her food and water bowls inside, and she got comfortable inside pretty quickly. When she wasn't inside it, she would be perched on top when I came out to feed her and visit. She seemed relieved to have a safe place to be, and a friend to give her love. When she looked up at me with her one yellow eye and one brown eye, we really started to bond. At some point, she stopped wanting to go into the shelter. I thought maybe some other animal had gone in and left its scent. The freezing temperatures were fast approaching, so I decided to adopt her and bring her inside to live. Even though I was feeding her a lot of food, she was still thin, and she was a pretty small adult kitty to begin with; I was afraid she might freeze to death otherwise. I already had two cats; they all seemed to get along fine after a few weeks went by. After a few months, everything was calm and casual among them. The two big boys like to wrestle with each other sometimes; maybe two or three times a week they get in the mood. The little girl though, who I named 'Moonpie', had no desire to participate; she was happy just to watch. A whole year went by, and Moonpie and I had a strong bond, along with the two boys. About ten days ago, Moonpie's cheek started to swell up. I was worried, because that usually indicates a tooth problem. I know that can involve X-rays, blood tests, antibiotics, tooth extraction under anesthetic, and a special medicinal diet... All of that can cost $1,000 or more I would estimate, and I just didn't have the money to deal with it. Someone suggested taking Moonpie to the Longview Humane Society to see if they could help. I called, and they said they had people who could treat her for free, even if it was a bad tooth. I took her in, and they told me that if Moonpie could be saved, I could have her back. They called me the next morning, and I was very happy to hear that my little kitty had no tooth problems at all, just an abscess that needed to be drained. They said she would be fine, and I could come get her after they treated her with antibiotics for three days. While Moonpie was there, I spent the whole time thinking how I would donate money to the organization when I could in the near future, because I was so grateful that they were willing to help me for free; I just didn't have any money at the time of the emergency. After the weekend and the Columbus Day holiday, I was ready to go pick up Moonpie; I was really looking forward to seeing her gentle little face, without the swollen cheek. I called on Tuesday to check the status. I spoke to Dreama, (or Drima?) who was the person who received the cat days before. To my shock, she told that Moonpie had been given to someone else and she now had a new home, and I couldn't have her back. I told her how wrong this situation was, and it should NOT be happening. She argued with me, and put words in my mouth that I never said; She said that I had told her before that I didn't want Moonpie back, which was utter bullshit. I suspect what happened was, someone in the office there fell in love with her sweet little face just as I had, so they just decided to take her for themself. Dreama, this isn't over.

House of Dreams is an incredible no-kill, free-roam shelter for abandoned and homeless cats. It is…read morean all-volunteer organization, located in NE Portland, that began in 1999. It is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) organization and one of the only area shelters with facilities for geriatric and feline leukemia positive (FeLV+) cats. House of Dreams has a medical unit for cats who need separate living quarters while undergoing treatment too. The facility is entirely dependent upon donations, grants and events for funding. Volunteers work every day, 365 days each year, to clean and maintain the shelter, feed and look after resident kitties and those looking for their forever homes. No kitty is turned away. All cats have been spayed or neutered, tested for FIV/FeLV, and are current on vaccinations, plus any additional dental and medical care the cats may need are taken care of during their stay. Every November "The Pretty Kitty Holiday Bazaar" is held and features handmade gifts for people and pets. An amazing raffle is held that is the highlight of the event. Many artists donate items to be sold for the benefit of all the resident kitties. This year the Bazaar is on November 9th from 10am to 4pm at 5441 SE Belmont, in Portland.

She told me a story about how they took back the same dog 6 times but then also said they don't take pets back?! What?! Those things contradict! It's clear she is just lying about OHS for clout. She also admitted she has BREED PREJUDICE for German shepards, but also "covid" and "Rez" dogs. Yeah. She discriminates based on breed, age, and BEING FROM A NATIVE RESERVATION. This person has no business running an animal shelter and SHOULD BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY. Also I saw their sign says family friendly but she cusses every other word. She got really defensive and claimed to be helping but judging by her demeanor and reviews on other sites, she's just helping herself feel like a good person by putting animals down and giving herself a big salary. I will be contacting Pixie's board soon to ask to have this person removed and I encourage others to do the same. Disgusting behavior and attitude. She should be ashamed.
