Playing Catch Up!!

OK, time for me to officially say good bye to Bailey and to introduce Abby.  Time got the best of me once again!

Bailey did not last long - which was no surprise.  He was adopted by a couple who had also adopted a dog from us last year.  The dog they adopted was a few years old and had lived with other dogs and two cats.  Bailey climbed right up into the lap of his prospective new dad and immediately won him over! His mom and dad were so happy to learn that Bailey was the same age as their dog as they were looking for an older cat to join their family.

Sweet little Abby took Bailey's place.  She is a young female that came into the Shelter in May.  When she arrived she was wearing a green flea collar so obviously belonged to someone.  The person who found her had seen her in the yard and began to feed her when she noticed a wound on her neck.  She was brought to the Shelter by animal control and spent some time in our sick bay getting well.  She is good as new and a happy girl!  Abby is very playful and would do fine in a home with dogs, kids and other cats.  She always had a great time playing with the other cats when we set her free in our main cat room!

Buddy is being picked up tomorrow (Saturday). He will be living with a house full of people and a dog so will not be lacking for attention and affection!

Wait til you see the beauty arriving after Buddy leaves!  Her name is Luscious - which says it all!  She is a longhaired dilute blue cream torti about three and half months old.  She is so soft and luscious!!  She came to the Shelter in mid-July with four others in her litter.  She is definitely fine with other cats and kids but we are not sure about dogs.  If introduced properly she should be fine.  Please give her a little time to settle in an as always approach her slowly until she seems comfortable in her new surroundings.
