The kittens wanted to play with Ilona.

But Ilona said, “No!”.

Some shelters give cats and kittens numbers instead of names. Not Paws!
Update: Ilona, Jesse, and Sundance have been adopted!

The kitten population is so mesmerizing that I have been been neglecting the adult cats. This is Gerdy, a one year old torti waiting for a home at PAWS.
UPDATE: March 2010- A new home at last!

Our polydactyl cat Tommie will shake paws if he is in the mood. It’s obvious from his reluctance that I forgot to say “Please”.

After we finish our chores at the shelter, many of the Sunday morning volunteers end up spending time in the same room. There are probably a dozen of the sweetest tempered affectionate kittens to cuddle.

So patiently waiting their turn…

So many toys, so little time!

The definition of shelter in the dictionary reads, “something beneath, behind, or within which a person, animal, or thing is protected from storms, missiles, adverse conditions, etc.; refuge”.
