Lil Bits needs a home! This beautiful girl has taken a minute to reach our adoption floor, and we’ll explain why. Lil Bits was surrendered for not consistently using the litter box, and we initially observed this issue as well. However with some deworming and experimentation with cat litters, she seems to be doing great on a brand called Pretty Litter (and will likely do well on similar litters such as low-dust clay.) We believe Lil Bits to be a Siamese mix, and Siamese are also prone to sensitive stomachs. A sensitive diet will be best for Lil Bits as we’ve noticed her do better on some foods than others. This sweet girl has been cooped up in a kennel for quite a while now and we’d love to see how she does in a home environment. We do offer foster with intent to adopt to allow a trial period to make sure she does well in the home. Our adoption application can be found at www.adoptcurrituckanimals.com, and we can be reached at 252-453-8682 for more information!

The Coastland Times – originally The Dare County Times – began in 1935 and was first published by D. Victor Meekins and his wife, Catherine Deaton Meekins, of Roanoke Island, North Carolina. Victor had previously worked at The Independent of Elizabeth City, North Carolina, and Catherine came from a newspaper-publishing family in Mooresville, North Carolina. Over the years, various other sister publications were produced to serve the area and eventually were combined to form what is now known as The Coastland Times.
Victor and Catherine’s children, Roger, Francis and Mary Blanche, were involved with the newspaper in its early days. Francis took over publishing duties from his parents and, together with his wife, children and grandchildren, continued in that capacity until health issues forced his retirement in 2005. Francis’ son, Warren Meekins, and daughter, Susan Simpson, continued publishing the newspaper until it was sold to Boone Newspapers Inc. affiliate Outer Banks Newsmedia in December 2017. Today, the newspaper is led by General Manager Theresa Schneider, Francis’ granddaughter.
The Coastland Times is published twice-weekly, with a paid circulation of 5,000 copies. It serves the people of North Carolina’s Outer Banks, one of the country’s most popular seaside vacation destinations, which is composed of Dare, Currituck, Hyde and Tyrrell counties.
