Sundays at the Shelter

One of the volunteers said, “I wouldn’t adopt a kitten. They’re too much work.” I know if I adopted a kitten, NO work would get done. ‘Kitten Wrangler’ would be my new profession.

This pretty stray cat was brought in to the shelter recently, ending her rough time on the street. Angel is shy but friendly, and must have had a family that loved her at some point. I wish we knew her story.

Three of the little kittens wanted to play, but the grey one was pooped.

Nemo is ‘balance challenged’ because of a neurological disorder. Despite his problems, he is one of the most happy and playful cats at the shelter.

Most of the cages at the shelter are two room efficiency apartments. Here’s Tay supervising the cleaning of his litter box from the loft over his bedroom.

He appreciates a clean home.

This new girl at the shelter has remarkable eyes. I wonder if that’s how she got her name. When I first saw her, I was reminded of my friend’s collection of sea glass.

There is an infinite variety of markings. Symmetry is supposed to be a sign of “beauty of form arising from balanced proportions”. But, symmetrical markings or not, all of these kittens look beautiful to me!

If we had a contest for most impressive whiskers, Mr. Bootz would win my vote. Cat’s whiskers are supposed to help them navigate in the dark… not going to be a problem for Bootz.

Kittens come into the shelter and are mostly adopted right away, unless they are too young or need extra care. Chances are, I won’t see this kitten when I go to PAWS next Sunday. Have a wonderful life, sweet little kitten!
