Kitten Season 2010


The shelter has kittens. Despite the snow on the ground, Spring is in the air! Amanda is the dark tortoiseshell and her sister Amy is the pale dilute torti.

Spots and Stripes

eLarisa
This is 6 month old Larisa who is at the shelter with her mom, Margarita.
I’ve been reading about cat markings, and she would be considered a patched tabby, maybe.
Tortie-tabby, torbie, caliby, dilute whatever… she’s a very cute cat!
You can read about markings here and get more confused too.

The Buddy System

The cats have each other, and lots of attention from staff and volunteers until their perfect new family finds them at the shelter. Very soon, I hope!
It’s getting pretty crowded at PAWS.

Gerdy

ePawsGerdy
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!

Scratch Lounge

The kind people at the Scratch Lounge company sent some of their products to PAWS for the shelter cats. They are a big hit! If you use this link to order one for your furry family, PAWS will get a donation.

Cattitude

e2catitude
The tortoiseshell and calico cats are almost always girls, and it seems as though they have stronger personalities too. Wikipedia says tortoiseshell cats are also called ‘calimanco or clouded tiger’. With that title, no wonder they have an attitude!
