Not quite a year old, brothers Lenny (above) and Tony (below) are looking for a home together. When their cage door is opened, bold curious Lenny leaps into action! Shy Tony is more cautious, and he has a very cute pink nose.

Last March I wrote about this pair at the Shelter (HERE).
That’s Mama Concha on top and her big baby son Julio on the bottom. Their lucky new family will pick them up next week.

And hello Goldie!

He is 6 years old, a BIG lapful of beautiful cat. Goldie is very friendly, calm, and gets along well with the other cats in the room.

“I’ve been here since September waiting for you. Could you please come and spring me out of this joint?”

Pablo is under two years old, handsome, and ready to go.

Here’s a young cat with a gorgeous coat and an interesting talent for decorating. A few minutes after I cleaned his cage, I saw the picture below.

I wish I had seen how he managed to put the small towel so neatly into his food dish.

When I wrote about Milo back in May, he was still a very grumpy, unfriendly guy. What a difference love, attention, and treats can make!

Now Milo is living loose in Cat Room #5. His calm manner and loud purr makes him the favorite cat to curl up with.


That’s Violet in the cage. The cats are telling her to stop hissing all the time so that she can come out too.

Phoebe and Zoe-Bob

Mindy and Maggie

Milo and Bobby

Julio and Concha

Some of the pairs at the Shelter came in together. Some found comfort in new friends that they met at PAWS.

“Ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend
When people can be so cold
They’ll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don’t you let them…

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend.”

We’ve just started to work on socializing Milo.
His ears say, “No, no, no,” but then he feels the brush running through his beautiful orange coat.
And he’s starting to say, “Yes.”

With a name like “Yahtzee” is it any surprise that this guy is friendly, curious, and always ready to play?
Update-he’s spending his first Holiday with his new family!

Boggle and Yahtzee are very friendly, active young orange cats.
Checkers and Diva are the tabbies.

When I was in cat room #7 on Sunday, there was a chorus of purring!
