Three Out and Three In!!

It has been a good week!!  Vito went home with a happy little boy and his mom and dad!  Mom had never had a cat before but dad, being a cat guy, convinced her what a great pet Vito would be for their family.  Binx went home with an older gentleman who just fell in love with him!!  He called the Shelter during the week to say how wonderful Binx was doing.  Apparently this is a perfect match - Binx came out of his carrier and adjusted right away to the new house.  Sherman left yesterday and is joining a family with several kids, mom and dad, and two other cats.  This family had been coming into PetSmart and looking at all the cats and were thinking about adopting Binx.  Once they saw he had gone they chose Sherman.  It looks like they will probably be back for Milo as well! 

So, the new arrivals are all boys and are wonderful! Chewbacca is under a year old and is a love bug!! He will purr away when you hold him! (We tend to call him Chewy which may confuse you guys because the other Chewy just left!)  He has been sharing a cage with his adopted brother Periwinkle.  Although they are not littermates they are friends!! Both came in over the summer as strays.  It would be wonderful if they left together, however it is not necessary.

And then there is handsome Spencer!  This four year old long haired boy would be best in a quiet household - as an only pet would be ideal but we will consider all the circumstances. Spencer was originally adopted from our Shelter as a kitten.  He was brought back as he was showing signs of stress in his present environment which consisted of two dogs and five kids - ages 7, 9, 10, 12 and 15. Please give Spencer time to settle in before mixing him in with the others.

In February we will be doing a an adoption promotion to help alleviate overcrowding at the Shelter and in anticipation of the inevitable influx of kittens in the Spring. We are going to promote February Feline Frenzy and have different reduced adoption fees for the month.  Details will be provided along with a flyer that can be printed out and shared.
 
The February schedule is complete with the exception of one day - Friday, February 21, the morning cleaning.
