For weeks, a team of young journalists examined data, read reports and interviewed scores of authorities to look into the high rate of poverty among Malheur County’s children.
The result is a five-part series that started this week in the Enterprise, the first in”Children of Poverty.” The series includes video reports as well.
We urge you to read the material and then consider how the community can do better by its kids. Send your thoughts and comments to Editor Les Zaitz by email at [email protected].

Nellie finally has a home of her own.
CATS: A good ending….
Before we bring you this week’s featured cats, an update from Amy Kee on one of the first felines featured by the Enterprise:
Nellie, our longest resident found her forever family on Saturday, because he saw her spotlight!
She has been with us since 2019, four long years waiting for someone to give her a chance at having a family. She’s one of our shy kitties, but her new dad is being very patient with her and willing to give her time to get used to him and her new surroundings.
These two would like a home too
Archie and Bebop are two incredible boys with so much love and fun to share with their family.
What’s better than a ginger boy? Two ginger boys!
These boys are 11 months old. They will be a year on July 1. Wouldn’t it be great for them to celebrate their first birthday in their loving forever home with their family? They are very silly and playful, but also love to be pet and get loves.
They are neutered, UTD on their vaccinations and tested negative for FeLV & FIV. They are indoor cats only for continued safety and no declawing would be permitted.
Come meet this pair. on Saturday to see if you have found your newest family member.
SATURDAY ADOPTION EVENT: Every Saturday, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Constance McCullough House, 84 N.W. 2nd St. in Ontario. Appointments available as well for other times.
