Sundays at the Shelter

It’s that time of the year again….Kitten Season!

This is April.

And here’s June. May was already adopted, and I’m sure these beauties will be leaving the shelter soon.

These two motherless babies were at PAWS Sunday for a few hours.
Shelter Kittens are lovingly fostered in homes until they are older.

When they come back in a month or so, they’ll be well socialized and ready for adoption.

Have you held a kitten lately? A miniature miracle in your two hands, with a purr out of all proportion to its size.

Capable of revving up from sleep to extreme action in a second’s time.

Morgan and Emily are waiting at PAWS.
It’s the start of a long happy love affair for some fortunate family.

Adopted! Morgan and Emily have gone home.

Fendi, Vuitton, and Ferragamo are back at the shelter and available for adoption. They were fostered by PAWS volunteer Cheryl with their momcat Givenchy and two other kittens (Hermes and Dior have already been adopted).
They’ve been well loved and are very affectionate and playful. Cheryl had her hands full, but she did a great job socializing them.

This is Fendi, she and her brother Vuitton are polydactyl.

Heard in the Kitten Room:

“They untied my shoelaces again.”

“Ut oh, there are four kittens in this cage. Now I only see three. What’s that noise in the trash can?”

“Argh! He climbed up my leg!”

“Oh no. I just cleaned that cage. They dumped the litter box all over!”

“Look out! There’s one right behind you.”

PAWS has many beautiful kittens available for adoption.

Two years ago this week, we took delivery on a 11 week old kitten that we were supposed to foster for PAWS until the shelter had room for him. He had been living in the woods along the edge of the city’s dog park.

It wasn’t long before we realized that he wasn’t a temporary visitor- he was family. It took a bit longer to convince Tommie and Ms Grace Lillian! Happy Gotcha day, Mickey!

Now that Loreen and Krystal have been adopted, I was very curious to see who moved into their old room at the shelter.
The new residents are a mother and daughter. Meet four month old Daisy.

And her one year old mother Dolly.

Little Daisy was very busy exploring the room while Mom kept a watchful eye on her baby.

Daisy wore herself out! Have you ever seen such pink toe pads?

ADOPTED TOGETHER!

This tiny kitten is one of a litter being fostered by a volunteer with a big heart and sleep deprivation. The kittens have to be fed every three hours around the clock at this age.

Thank you!

A group of adorable kittens (not to be redundant) were brought to PAWS recently. I don’t know what their Mom looked like, but she had excellent taste in mencats.
Could these two really be brothers?
What do you think?

Baby boom at the shelter!
