The City of Fallon Animal Shelter, along with Chief of Police Kris Alexander during the last City Council meeting, recognized Pat McKeown for her dedication to the cats of Fallon. Pat has rescued hundreds of cats from the shelter over the past few years and made the number of cats euthanized at the shelter almost zero. The feral cats have gone to the Feline Adoption and Welfare Group, known as FAWG, and the friendly cats are transported by Pat to other rescue groups in the area.

FAWG will be holding the next adoption event on Saturday, January 8 at the Kitty Shack located at 4677 Reno Highway next to Fallon Floors. In addition, donations of cat or kitten food can be dropped off as well from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays. Contact 775-217-4745 for more information.

This is a reminder that we as citizens live in a representative form of government and why it is so important that we vote as voting is our way of making our voice heard.

When we bought our land in Kingston, Sis regaled us with her stories of gatherings at the old restaurant & bar on the way to Groves lake. Sis often said, 'What happens in Kingston stays in Kingston!' Fun & funny lady. Comment publication date: 9/8/26, 5:58 PM Comment source: Marilyn J. “Sis” Banovich Comment author: Ruth Fiege Comment text: So sorry for the pain your family is suffering. She is in comfort of Jesus arms. This is Ruth Fiege, Gary's cousin from WI. I can't begin to imagine the pain your family is suffering. So much comfort in knowing she and baby are with Jesus. God Bless you all during this tragedy.
