The latest from the Malheur Enterprise

Good morning and we’re glad you are with us.

Today, you have more daylight than you will have any other day of the year – it’s the summer solstice.

The beginning of summer comes with a day that started at 6:04 a.m. Thursday and lasts 15 hours, 29 minutes and 24 seconds.

The instant today when the sun is as far north as it gets comes at 2:50 p.m.

Alas, what the sun gives it will take away. Tomorrow, the days start shrinking – you will lose 0.02 seconds of daylight on Friday.

There’s plenty going on around Malheur County to make good use of all the daylight.

Here’s the latest news from your local award-winning team at the Enterprise:

WAITING TO BE ADOPTED…

Teddy is the cutest little guy. He’s adorable and has such a sweet and fun personality. He will make a great addition to his loving forever family.

All of our kitties go home with a “going home gift” of a litter box, food & water dish, toy and a kitty blanket, all of these items have been generously donated.

He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tested negative for FeLV & FIV.

He is an indoor cat only for his safety. No declawing is allowed.

Adoption event: Every Saturday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. or by appointment at the Constance McCullough House, 84 N.W. 2nd St., Ontario. 

OFCP is also in need of volunteers. Do you have a couple of hours a week to help the kitties?

We also desperately need foster homes.. OFCP provides everything you need. You provide a safe place for them to hang out with lots of love until they are big enough to spay/neuter so they can find their loving forever families. Volunteering and fostering are very rewarding and you are changing the lives of these cats.
