00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:17.679
<v Speaker 1>a guest joining me on the telephone right now, Matt Tugas.

7
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>He is with Sue Empire TNR Coalition and we've got

8
00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:23.719
<v Speaker 1>a fun event that's coming up tomorrow. It's called Tats

9
00:00:23.719 --> 00:00:27.039
<v Speaker 1>for Cats. So yes, you can get a tattoo and

10
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:30.280
<v Speaker 1>you can support this organization. So before we talk about

11
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>the event for tomorrow, let's talk about what Sue Empire

12
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:36.280
<v Speaker 1>TNR Coalition does and Matt, I'll let you explain it.

13
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:37.920
<v Speaker 1>You do a good job explaining what you guys.

14
00:00:37.799 --> 00:00:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Do TNR, which is population control. We do rescue, you know,

15
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:44.759
<v Speaker 2>adoptions and pretty much everything in between. If there's a

16
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:48.920
<v Speaker 2>cat out where around the needs help, persistance, we're going

17
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:50.560
<v Speaker 2>to do whatever we can to help that cat.

18
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:52.320
<v Speaker 1>I love that. And the thing that's really neat you

19
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.719
<v Speaker 1>guys are out in the community a lot, doing a

20
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>lot of fundraisers, doing a lot of different things for

21
00:00:56.679 --> 00:00:59.799
<v Speaker 1>the Sue Empire TNR coalition, So you get a chance

22
00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:02.439
<v Speaker 1>to eat people quite often. And one of the things

23
00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:04.439
<v Speaker 1>that's cool. A lot of the times when people see

24
00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:07.200
<v Speaker 1>you guys out doing things, you have cats along with

25
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>you too.

26
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:09.680
<v Speaker 2>Don't you. Almost always these.

27
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 1>Are cats that if people like fall in love and

28
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:14.439
<v Speaker 1>say I want this cat at my house, they can

29
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:16.159
<v Speaker 1>find a way to bring that cat home, right.

30
00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:19.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh, absolutely, Yeah. Adoptions are the name of the game.

31
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:21.480
<v Speaker 2>That's you know, the more cats we adopt out in

32
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:24.000
<v Speaker 2>the homes, the more cats we're able to help. Every

33
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.439
<v Speaker 2>cat adopted out kind of freeze up space for another

34
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:28.560
<v Speaker 2>one and another one and another one.

35
00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:30.640
<v Speaker 1>And it's not like you're going to run out of supply.

36
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:33.239
<v Speaker 1>There's cats all the time, and there's a need that's

37
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:35.159
<v Speaker 1>just growing and growing and growing. And part of what

38
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:37.239
<v Speaker 1>you guys are doing is helping to control that growth,

39
00:01:37.239 --> 00:01:37.719
<v Speaker 1>aren't you.

40
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:41.239
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Yes, our big mission is spay and neuter. We're

41
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 2>on track to, hopefully you I'll cross my fingers cautiously optimistic,

42
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.319
<v Speaker 2>we're going to spay and neuter about seven hundred cats

43
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:47.760
<v Speaker 2>this year.

44
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:50.239
<v Speaker 1>That is a huge number, man, that's awesome.

45
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:53.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, that's between owned cats and T and R

46
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:57.200
<v Speaker 2>as well, and either way, as long as you're fixing

47
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:00.280
<v Speaker 2>cats within the community, that does help with the popular.

48
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:04.959
<v Speaker 1>Obviously absolutely and again Sue Empire tn R Coalition one

49
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent volunteer. It's a five oh one c three nonprofit.

50
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:12.840
<v Speaker 1>And again a really cool fundraiser is happening tomorrow, Tats

51
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:15.560
<v Speaker 1>for Cats at Red Arbor Tattoo. Let's talk about this.

52
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Yeah, it's going to be and even if you're

53
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:19.520
<v Speaker 2>not into tattoos, this is going to be a fun event.

54
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:22.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, who got the artists there at Red Arbor.

55
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:23.840
<v Speaker 2>They all wanted to They want to do two hundred

56
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:27.800
<v Speaker 2>and fifty tattoos tomorrow. There are tattoos that come off

57
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.520
<v Speaker 2>with their flashes what they call so they've they've come

58
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:33.240
<v Speaker 2>up with about six or seven different pages of I

59
00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:35.639
<v Speaker 2>guess it's custom flash because they did it for this event.

60
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:39.400
<v Speaker 2>And what that means is you got like six pages

61
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:44.680
<v Speaker 2>of all these smaller, more simplistic tattoos. Everything that I've

62
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 2>seen for this event is either dog or cat related,

63
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:51.159
<v Speaker 2>mostly cat, but animal in general. You know, so even

64
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.319
<v Speaker 2>if you don't want you do want a cat tattoo,

65
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:54.879
<v Speaker 2>then you can certainly get one of a dog or

66
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 2>there's there's a few other options too, but I don't

67
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:58.680
<v Speaker 2>know why you want to get a cat tattoo.

68
00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:00.960
<v Speaker 1>And I'm looking right now on the website because if

69
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:04.680
<v Speaker 1>you go to Sue EMPIRETNR dot org, you can actually

70
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>schedule your tattoo for tomorrow. Right now, agains the first

71
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:13.159
<v Speaker 1>annual tats for cats. And I see that, like the

72
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:16.520
<v Speaker 1>ten o'clock time slot is already full, and I'm scrolling through.

73
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:18.680
<v Speaker 1>It looks like our first opening is a little bit

74
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>later in the morning, like ten forty five, And there's

75
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.000
<v Speaker 1>several openings later in the day that are already full

76
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:24.879
<v Speaker 1>as well, So it looks like people have already signed up,

77
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 1>but there's still room.

78
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:28.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, Like I said, we want to do two fifty.

79
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.800
<v Speaker 2>I think we're sitting right about eighty or ninety people

80
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.800
<v Speaker 2>signed up right now. We're anticipating a lot of people

81
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:34.879
<v Speaker 2>just walking up and do it.

82
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah. So and that's the cool thing about

83
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>this again, it's going to be a pretty quick thing,

84
00:03:40.039 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>at about a fifteen minute session, so you don't have

85
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:45.280
<v Speaker 1>to plan like a whole day. Oh I got to

86
00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:47.439
<v Speaker 1>schedule this and I got to figure this out. And again,

87
00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:49.120
<v Speaker 1>these are not going to be huge tattoos. It's not

88
00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:51.120
<v Speaker 1>going to cover your entire back, like this is a

89
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:54.800
<v Speaker 1>cute little tattoo that you can do. And again, a

90
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of the funds that are being raised tomorrow for

91
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:59.439
<v Speaker 1>this event are going to sue Empire TNR. So it's

92
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:03.319
<v Speaker 1>a cool tato and it's a good cause absolutely, And again,

93
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:04.599
<v Speaker 1>this is the first time you've done this, so we

94
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know how it's going to go. But I think

95
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:07.439
<v Speaker 1>it's going to go well. And I'm going to be

96
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:09.280
<v Speaker 1>hanging out with you, playing some music, having some fun.

97
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:10.479
<v Speaker 1>I think it'll be a darn good time.

98
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:12.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think so too. Yeah, there's going to be

99
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:14.879
<v Speaker 2>food trucks. I believe there was rumors of a beer

100
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:16.959
<v Speaker 2>cart just kind of hanging out in the parking lot

101
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.519
<v Speaker 2>there at Red Arbor. Obviously, like you said before, we

102
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.319
<v Speaker 2>always have adoptable cats with us, so if you're in

103
00:04:22.319 --> 00:04:24.160
<v Speaker 2>the market for a kiddie and not a tattoo, you

104
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:27.800
<v Speaker 2>can still come on out see what we got. We've also,

105
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:29.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, I think we're doing a donation drive too,

106
00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:33.920
<v Speaker 2>so food litter, anything that's on our donation list on

107
00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:37.959
<v Speaker 2>our website, we're taking donations as well. So it's just

108
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:40.680
<v Speaker 2>going to be just a hangout day for the most part.

109
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it'll be a lot of fun.

110
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:42.199
<v Speaker 2>Again.

111
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:45.759
<v Speaker 1>It's happening tomorrow ten am till six pm. It's at

112
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:48.800
