Today is International Level Crossing Awareness Day (ILCAD).

Crossings connect communities. They require everyone's attention. At every crossing, slow down, look both ways and cross only when it is clear.

Always expect a train. Trains are quieter and faster than you think.

Make safe choices at every crossing. Save this and share it with someone who crosses the tracks every day.

Have you ever used a cricket to tell the temperature? Here's how to do it! 👀

1. Count the number of chirps you hear in 14 seconds
2. Add 40 to get the temperature.

That's it! The number you get will be an approximation of the outside temperature. For example, if you hear 30 chirps, add 40 = 70°F. The more they chirp, the hotter it is! 🌡️

Roxy is a 1 year old female. She is a short-haired cat. She previously lived with a dog and it was her best buddy. She was surrendered due to the other cat not liking her so it might take her a moment to warm up to a new cat. She could live with kids.

** Roxy is in our care in Altoona PA. Each cat gets microchipped, spayed/neutered, snap FIV/FeLV combo tested and vaccinated. (We DO NOT declaw). The adoption fee covers those costs. Adoption fees are listed on the applications. In person applications take priority over ones mailed or emailed (especially on a popular animal). An application must be filled out first in order to visit with any cat. Applications can be found on our website www.centralpahumane.org or at the shelter. A Petfinder inquiry is NOT an application, and they may not be responded to. We can only accept so many applications for each animal. We do adopt out of state but we do not transport and we cannot hold the animal. **

Applications can be emailed to [email protected]

Every crossing deserves your full attention.

Trains can't stop quickly. A freight train can take more than a mile to stop, even in an emergency.

When you reach a crossing:

Always expect a train.
Never go around gates.
Cross only when the signs and signals are clear.
Make safe choices. See Tracks? Think Train!®
