Tutorial 1. Cut out two 10-by-6-inch rectangles of cotton fabric. Use tightly woven cotton, such as quilting fabric or cotton sheets. T-shirt fabric will work in a pinch. Stack the two rectangles; you will sew the cloth face covering as if it was a single piece of fabric.
2. Fold over the long sides ¼ inch and hem. Then fold the double layer of fabric over ½ inch along the short side sides and stitch down. fold

Materials • Two 10”x6” rectangles of cotton fabric • Two 6” pieces of elastic (or rubber bands, string, cloth strips, or hair ties)
• Needle and thread (or bobby pin) • Scissors • Sewing machine

3. Run a 6-inch length of 1/8-inch wide elastic through the wider hem on each side of the cloth face covering. These will be the ear loops. Use a large needle or a bobby pin to thread it through. Tie the ends tight. Don’t have elastic? Use hair ties or elastic head bands. If you only have string, you can make the ties longer and tie the cloth face covering behind your head. thread through

We are ready to assist in anyway!
4. Gently pull on the elastic so that the knots are tucked inside the hem. Gather the sides of the cloth face covering on the elastic and adjust so the mask fits your face. Then securely stitch the elastic in place to keep it from slipping.

TAZ & TABBY
Two young domestic shorthair female cats. Tabby is one year old and is mostly black, but has a spot of white on her chest and belly. She has a flea allergy, so must be an indoor cat. Taz is a 1.5-year-old tuxedo kitty and is the more adventurous one of the pair. They are both a little shy at first, but are sweet and playful. They came to us with another cat because the owner’s landlord did not allow that many cats. These two are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. As part of the buddy program, the adoption fee for the second cat will be half off. ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
