Little energetic Harley went home on Saturday, October 28.  He is going to have a great time living with his new parents, their six year old daughter, a dog and another cat.  There will be no shortage of company for this guy!

Bradley left a couple days earlier than Harley.  He is joining another cat named Cleo, three adults and a seven year old.  This couple came down all the way from Mullica Hill to pick him up! 

Sloan and Garfield were brought to the store after the two boys left.  Sloan came in as a stray in mid-September.  She was spayed and eartipped when she came in.  Sadly no one has come looking for her.  She is about five years old.  Sweet Sloan will acclimate to a house with other cats, kids and dogs.

You will all probably remember Garfield.  He was at PetSmart and was adopted into an adult only home a little while ago.  He was brought back to the Shelter because the adopter's husband supposedly hates cats!  What a sad situation for Garfield.  Why they adopted him initially is a mystery - an annoying mystery.  Of course had we known that the adoption would not have been approved.  Garfield is about an year and half old.  He is a little picky about feline company and prefers to be the only cat.  He may be transferred to ROAR in Connecticut.  That decision will be made in a few days.

It is so difficult to believe that the holidays are right around the corner!  Wow!  PetSmart will be closed on Thanksgiving and we do not need to have volunteers go.  Employees will be at the store late Wednesday into Thursday and will leave at 2:00am on Thanksgiving morning.  They will take care of our cats when they leave and double up on food and water.  If you are scheduled the day after Thanksgiving be prepared for a bit more of a mess!

The schedule looks great with the exception of Sundays.  Joelle is back and doing every other Sunday morning beginning this week (November 12).  Help is needed for the alternate days.  We still struggle to fill the Adoption Table on Sundays.  If you are available - even if only once a month - please let me know.  We can train you on the paperwork...it is not difficult.  Plus, the Shelter is open during the table hours so you can always call if you need help or have any questions.  The open dates are below:

Sunday AM Cleaning: November 19
Sunday Adoption Table: November 12, 19, 26 

 

Remember to thank a veteran for their service

this Saturday as we celebrate Veterans Day!
