May I introduce my candidate for Shelter Hunk: nine year old Sydney.
This gorgeous boycat has been at PAWS for over a month. With his outgoing friendly personality, I’m thinking that he won’t be at the shelter much longer.
Chi-Lan came to PAWS around the same time. She’s a three year old Siamese Sealpoint and has already left the shelter for her new home!
Andrey, CEO (Cat Entrusted Official), of the Cat Amazing company sent samples of their toy to the cats at PAWS.
It arrived at my house and our cat Gracie opened the very cute envelope. The toy is easy to assemble, no tools needed. You just drop treats (not included) into the holes and stand back! I used Greenies, which everyone loves. I gave Gracie a few treats to apologize for taking this fascinating toy off to the shelter.
Lenny and Tony had a great time hunting and fishing.
But Elmer was so fast and accurate, you would have thought he had opposable thumbs!
Thank you, Cat Amazing, for brightening their day while they wait for new homes.
I’m grateful that Sabre and so many others have been adopted and will be enjoying the holiday in their new homes. Happy Thanksgiving!
Some weeks when I get home from the shelter and look at my photographs,
I have a hard time deciding what to share on the blog.
Maybe a beautiful tabby kitten like little Vea?
Looking through the window at the cats in Room #4 who are waiting for a visit
(they’ve been redecorating).
You’ve seen Kosmo and Kramer before on the blog, but what a sweet pose!
For more kitten cuteness, visit my friends at Animal Shelter Volunteer life. They have some adorable action shots of Bobble, Vea’s gray brother.
Six year old Toni, a beautiful tortoiseshell cat, came to PAWS recently when her owner died.
Toni’s brother Chino is with her.
They must have been well loved, because even with all the changes in their circumstances, they still look to people for affection. It’s a sad story, but I hope there’s a happy ending soon.
Thinking of happier days?
This pretty girl was found as a stray and brought to PAWS this Summer. Barbra is shy but really very sweet. She would like to be someone’s only cat and would blossom in a home of her own.
She’s about three years old, healthy, and ready for a second chance at love.
Another New Hammock!
This week Joanne McG., PAWS dog volunteer and shelter seamstress, made a hammock for Elmer. It’s a cosy fleece design with a Tigger pattern. Elmer is very happy. Thanks, Joanne!
I don’t want to embarrass Allie, but she is on w/d (weight reduction) food. She’s 7 years old and not very active. When she’s out of her cage, her favorite activities are napping and supervising other cat’s meals.
“Who me? I just have big bones.”
Allie is a gentle loving cat and would be so happy to have a home to call her own after nearly 2 years at the shelter.
Good News- Allie’s neighbor, tabby Bailey, has been adopted!
These sweet sisters were brought to PAWS two years ago. They celebrated their ninth birthday at the shelter and are ready to move on to a home of their own. Zoe and Gracie get along with all the other cats, love people, and purr up a storm.
Zoe has the distinction of being the only cat at the shelter with a collar! Otherwise, it’s very hard to tell them apart.
She had a beautiful little family of three kittens and was a very good mother.
She nursed them, taught them good kitty manners, and they were all adopted right away.
That was in November of 2008.
Mercedes is still at the shelter waiting for a home of her own. She’s shy and quiet. Enjoys the company of other cats, and likes to be gently brushed.
Happy Mother’s Day, Mercedes.
Full house on the Kuranda Cat bed!
