Othello Goes Home. Good Bye Whitney!! Be Good!!

Whitney & old crooked Othello went home on Saturday. Judy M said it was actually harder to get Othello into the carrier than Whitney. I spoke with Whitney's new mom today and she said Whitney is doing well. She said she is "getting used to having another cat around" (we know how that goes!) and is eating well. She said Whitney is affectionate and loves to be held and petted. She finished by saying, "We love her already." How great is that! I love the idea of Whitney being able to run and jump and stretch her legs her out! We did it!! Whitney is home!!

Two new girls arrived on Sunday named Samantha and Mollie. Samantha is a big old black cat who is very sweet and friendly. Mollie is black and white and is sweet but shy and can be a little bit of a scaredy cat. Please remember this when handling her. I am sure that she will come around when she gets to know all of us.
.
Babe got two holds over the weekend. The first application was approved and arrangements are being made for him to go home Wednesday. I will let you know when that is a definite. Apparently the applicant on the second hold is interested in two kittens at the Shelter.
.
The application for Redkin has been approved and he will be picked up Wednesday night. Yippee!!
.
Amanda is doing well under the foster care of Heidi from the Shelter. Anna was adopted and as soon as Amanda is totally cleared of the ringworm she will be joining Anna in a forever home.
.
There is a logistical issue with the Open Your Heart And Home program and the program where the adoption fee on the second cat is waived. For now, both programs have been suspended. However, should two cats be adopted, the adoption fee on the second cat is still reduced by half. I will let you know when the programs are back in effect. Should you have questions regarding adoption fees please call the Shelter or refer the applicant to the Shelter. We do not want to give inaccurate information.

It was a good week for our guys at PetSmart. Thanks for your help!!
